Spunar versus Hauser; likely Hicks, potentially versus Ivankovic. All freshman goalies Frozen Four on the table. The term "freshman" is a bit misleading in hockey though of course with various age freshmen coming in due to junior hockey.

Pohlkamp might end up being a dude for the Sharks, he's so good

The craziest thing is Johnny Hicks was committed to Tennessee State for 5-6 months until it was clear they weren't starting their program for at least another year, flipped to Denver in Spring 2025.

4 home site regionals is the best solution IMHO

Denver was more aggressive than Western Michigan in their 2025 Offseason to improve, this result is showing that

Denver turns into a wagon this time of year it seems

Michigan more now. They have this weird love/affinity for the other Minnesota teams, they don't hate em as much now since they're not in the WCHA anymore. Gophers fans look at the other Minnesota programs as "little brother", condescendingly

I want a North Dakota-Wisconsin, Michigan-Denver Frozen Four. Most National Championships and make Gophers fans squirm more

Would agree with Michigan for football, but not hockey. Minnesota is at the top for hockey. Boston College's fanbase isn't quite big enough to earn a spot above Minnesota or others IMHO

I still give them that title until I see years and years of Nittany Lions fans act like clowns simply because of their brand & state

Rickwood still the most underrated portal addition of the 2025 NCAA Offseason. Such a mature, well rounded game that completely changed the trajectory of this team.

🤣 Seeing Gophers fans meltdown is just priceless

OOOFFF

Same

Thought early in the season that this team was probably "a year away" and now they're going to the Frozen Four. Incredible work from Jackson as well as Smaby, Simpson, & Chyzyk.

Looked like he got banged up on that shift

More of something to beware for the Frozen Four when you're going to play teams that give you less margin for error

I'm proven right tonight with my claims for multiple years that ECAC is weak as hell. Wyttenbach, while very good, stat padded all year playing a bunch of BCHL/NAHL guys.

2? WTF

Absolutely zero need to board there, should be a major IMHO

That's a 5

He's been awesome for a long time now. I think it was the Miami Friday game in Oxford in 2024 (which I was in attendance for) where he had a great night with Andrew on the 4th line, that was his coming out party. Been solid ever since.
