Schmaltz and Ausmus were both on the team during DJ's tenure as an assistant, they both love the guy

Eisele to Minnesota or Wisconsin makes a ton of sense if he's in the portal tomorrow.

Wood likely to sign later today with Nashville per Friedman

Ferschweiler seems like a great motivator and a great tactical coach. Hope the next UND coach can do both as well.

Josh Zakreski 2 goals in Game 1 of Portland's first round series against Prince George

While we knew Snuggerud was going to sign and Rinzel was fairly likely, kinda surprised about Moore. Regardless, 3 huge blows so far to the Goofers

Denver plays such straightforward speed game, their guys can fly. Carle does such a great job there, gotta tip your cap

Did he get into hockey through family and/or through the Penguins success? Noticed he's a Western PA, Pittsburgh suburbs kid.

I'd rather just have the top seed in each regional host. Dumb to have neutral sites in random ass locations like Toledo

Hope Maine loses, Hockey East complains that their team had to play a road game as a 1 seed, and then we finally get home site regionals. This is one of Schloss's best points about the sport. The 4 seed gets a home game here lmao.

Which basically means if you combined the Michigan approach and the Minnesota approach, you’d win national championships pretty consistently. But both of those programs get in their own way for different reasons, hence their title droughts. North Dakota should have the right mix every year, but the coaching and potentially some of the recruiting has dipped lately.

Did North Dakota try to recruit Buium at all??

I think you need a balance of your top end stars in the Toews, Oshie, Boeser, Schmaltz type, but you still need your Cole Smith, Austin Poganski, Gage Ausmus type guys too. And you need to recruit the rare Caggiula types who have pretty high end skill for the NCAA level but grit/bite/edge/tenacity that few have anymore. Also, just recruit a top end goalie, I know they're hard to find, but c'mon on. Wonder if Jacob Fowler was not pursued hard by Berry and staff, or if he just wanted to stay east of Lake Michigan, in which he came down to Boston College & Michigan, obviously chose the Eagles.

He's in the loop, he just won't repeat it in order to keep his sources & potentially his whole job. DM Schloss politely on Twitter & you'll find out that he knows more behind the scenes but can't really bring it up on pods & in articles.

Lucas Van Vliet (2024 Vegas 7th rounder, ex Michigan State commit, Dubuque Fighting Saints, USHL), commits to St Thomas. Big get for the Tommies

Do we collectively like, dislike, or no opinion on PxP guy Jason Ross Jr? Voice is kinda weird and goes over the top on goals after sounding monotone for most of normal gameplay.

I keep forgetting about Schultz as a recruit. Hasn't torn up junior this year, solid but unspectacular. I would imagine he goes back for another year before coming to campus

Only thing I disagree with is Minnesota State. They did not look fast at all outside of Pitlick and maybe one or two others

Cayden Lindstrom (2024 Draft 4th overall pick, Columbus, Medicine Hat Tigers, WHL) likely headed to Michigan State, per Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch

Gophers probably losing 6-9 guys to graduation and pro. Maybe a couple transfers in there as well. They will not be as good next year.

Snuggerud doesn't pick up Suniev going back door, slam dunk finish to win it. Just simple defensive mistake backchecking EDIT: It was Suniev, nice pass by Locmelis to Suniev backdoor to win it

Thank you for your (jinx) service

Assuming you picked the Goofers, thank you for your service

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA YESSSSSSSS

C'mon UMass
