Wouldn't think so at least right now. Motzko will let LDP and Airey battle for the starter's job. If Airey loses it and barely plays, he'll transfer in 2026.

Simpson, Pilgrim, Laurila, Bumgarner all in action in that one

Interested to see how he does in 20-25 starts on a retooling Goofers squad

Luca Di Pasquo (Michigan State) to Minnesota now official.

Watched the interview Jackson did with Taylor Budge, honestly more excited about him now, just a different voice gives me some optimism. Berry had gotten quite stale so this is nice at least for now.

Schloss was told by several scouts that Simpson needs a full year of junior before coming in. Schultz should be mostly ready.

I'd be very surprised if both O'Neill and Lindberg come in for 2025-26. I actually think both need to go back to junior for another year before coming to UND

In terms of Dub guys, here are the high end draft eligibles who should be serious UND targets: Jackson Smith (LHD) Roger McQueen (C) Carter Bear (C/LW, likely out 1st half of 2025-26 season due to injury) Ben Kindel (RW) Cole Reschny (LW) Cameron Schmidt (RW) Lynden Lakovic (LW) Blake Fiddler (RHD) Josh Ravensbergen (G) Braeden Cootes (C) Nathan Behm (C/W) Everyone else in terms of the WHL draft eligibles are tiers below those I mentioned IMHO. Of course, you'd love to get high end guys from the O and the Q, but UND just doesn't get Ontario or Quebec/Maritimes kids very often and doesn't recruit those provinces/areas as much.

Even with a poor O Playoffs right now, Misa has a legit shot to go straight from junior to the NHL (of course depends on who drafts him). A team like the Boston Bruins, who strongly supports NCAA route development, might steer him in the direction of 1 year in the NCAA for better development & steer him to Boston University or Boston College for ease of access. Like I've mentioned before, I expect Michigan to make a serious push for several CHLers, Misa probably included. Michigan has opened up a ton of spots and still has plenty of space after Perron committed there, they aren't slated to bring in too many freshmen right now and can defer some of their guys a year by sending em back to junior.

I'd like to see 2 more CHLers. High end ones

I personally don't think O'Neill is ready yet, but completely understand if they bring him in

Any news on Gibson Homer?

How quickly has Jackson gone hard into the portal, that is the question. Now that the press conference is done, I'd guess he's doing 12 hour days at the office for awhile now.

Miller was signed by the Bruins on November 4 2022, then his contract was terminated on November 6 2022 after fan pressure and pressure from the Bruins players on management. Miller played 2021-22 with the Tri City Storm of the USHL

Link?

Michigan will be big game hunting all offseason. Full mercenary

Cameron Korpi (Michigan) to the portal. Wolverines going to have another mercenary roster for 2025-26.

Looks like Michigan will have to replace about half their roster as result of graduation, turning pro, and portal entries. They already have Perron added. Would seem like they're going to add a few more big names in the portal and go hard after a few big time CHLers

Toews does not have kids.

Is this all that he said regarding the CHL and recruiting all 3 CHL leagues?
