Never going to root for those insular tribalists

Like I said, this can happen when you don't have much margin for error with your roster construction, no high end scoring forwards for the Badgers hinders them when they aren't clicking with the Hastings structure/system

Have some shame Mike Hastings, this is pathetic

Wisconsin falling off a cliff this year, I guess it's to be expected to some degree when you don't have any game breaking forwards, so you have much less room for error when mistakes are made. 3-1 Minnesota right now

Nice goal from McKenna

Love this outdoor game at Penn State, what a venue

It's USports, and they had to fill a roster after most of their team from last year left via graduation/portal, so that was the strategy they went with. The regular NCAA portal was pretty weak for them to be able to get guys to fill voids. I don't think they were going to be a top team in conference regardless.

UNO isn't all USports guys, many are directly out of the CHL like Luke Woodworth, Marcus Nguyen, Spencer Sova, Dawson Cowan

Not that surprised, Minnesota Duluth's forward group is below average outside of their 1st line

Good win for the RedHawks

Assuming relatively low overall impact for a small sample in conference, but you could be right

Wisconsin dropping further into bubble territory in the NPI with tonight's disastrous loss at Minnesota

Pathetic effort from Wisconsin so far, 3-1 Minnesota right now in the 3rd. Fraudulent Badgers team, have some shame Hastings

3-1 Minnesota

2-1 Minnesota

Minnesota ties it, 1-1

Wisconsin 1 Minnesota 0 in the 1st

3-0 Boston College

Boston College up 2-0 on Boston University. Eagles look way better than they did a few months ago

The best route for most players in my opinion is to go from the CHL to the NCAA before turning pro. Only a handful can make the jump straight from junior to pro, it's a massive jump to play in the A at 19 or 20 years old coming out of junior. The NCAA is the perfect middle ground to play against older players, but not 30 year olds

Would be very surprised if DuPont is at North Dakota next year tbh

I think the problem for Boston University is that their roster has one A+ elite talent (Hutson), while the A level talents (Boisvert & Eiserman) as well as the A-/B+ talents have been underwhelming. If you're young AND not dominant, plus shakier goaltending from Yegorov this season, you're going to struggle, which they have. I overrated them, thought their talent would click a lot faster

When I say "light it up', I generally mean over point per game type of production, especially as a younger aged player. Pilgrim can certainly be a solid contributor (as Josephson is right now), but his junior production as an 18 & 19 year old doesn't suggest that he'll be a dominant, light it up, NCAA producer. That is more of my point.
