He’s a bad skater for his size. I do not like his game at all. Just my opinion

I would like to see Emery play in the top 4 over him.

Homer is out of position a lot. It seems like spends a lot of time on the ice and sells out quite a bit on initial shots. Three of the four goals last night weren’t really his fault but his play style makes me uneasy at times. Spunar looks like he is in control at all times.

Since that money goes to the school initially, it would be part of their revenue sharing. Since revenue sharing is capped at $20.5, there isn’t much revenue sharing money left over for hockey programs once football and basketball have gotten their share.

I listened to the GPL podcast last week and there are serious concerns about their ability to pay players. Gopher hockey is an afterthought for revenue sharing and their collective is virtually nonexistent.

Minnesota is so far gone right now. As bad as this year is, they could lose Ziemer and will lose Lamb and Mittlestadt. They also have a mediocre freshman class coming in. As a team that doesn’t really take transfers or CHL players, I don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. Fitzhenry and Schneider still being uncommitted is very telling as well. If they don’t land at least one of them they’ll be in serious trouble.

It could have been either way, probably was a penalty though. Seeing that ASU also committed a major during that review probably made it easier for them to call.

If the player’s hand grabs the facemask or rubs it, then it’s a major penalty. If he “stiff arms” the opposing player in the face like Kernan did, it will likely be a minor penalty. I believe it is either a major penalty or no penalty at all on a challenge. Definitely wasn’t major but he could’ve received a minor if it was called without a review.

Anyone else see Emery counting how many goals they scored on his hand to an ASU fan after the game?

Love the announcer chuckling after Waldron has a blatant trip

I honestly think ASU has gotten the better whistle this game. You’d think ASU didn’t spend half of the second period on the powerplay the way these announcers are talking.

Looked like Kernan just stuck his glove out in his face. These announcers need to grow a pair, holy smokes.

It looked like the ASU hit Kernan in the head after the whistle in real time

Schloss was very complimentary of Beck Thoreson in this week’s podcast. As of right now, the plan is for him to be here for his draft year which would mean he is pretty high end. Still a long way to go but he is definitely a valuable piece for the future.

Carels is local-ish as well. He is from about 3 hours away from Grand Forks. His sister plays a couple hours away at Jamestown. I would imagine that plays a role as well.
