  1. I still have PTSD from the “this is your captain speaking” captain announcement. I never was a fan of Jamernik.
  2. I did not know that only one player can wear a “C” in college. I would prefer James but would be cool with Livanavage too.
  3. I would like to see Livanavage and James as Cs and Wiebe and Zmolek as As.
  4. Could be captains as well. Wiebe, James, Livanavage, and Zmolek are in the photo.
  5. Definitely making an announcement of some sort. My guess would be jerseys
  6. Eventually it will iron itself out. A year ago these kids were not even eligible and there are already a handful of projected 2026 first round picks headed to college hockey this year or next year from the CHL. I’m sure a few more top 2008s will commit in the coming months.
  7. Pridham recently decommitted from BU and returned to the OHL. I saw today that Bryn follows him and he follows Bryn. I’m pretty sure that is recent, but I could be wrong. Doubtful on Pridham though.
  8. Definitely a tour of some sort that occurred today. That’s definitely something you would put on the scoreboard during a visit. Most likely an August 1st recruit(s) taking a visit before next week. If Desnoyers were to take a visit, it would be one of these days before the showcase in Minneapolis on Friday.
  9. I would be surprised if a lot of those guys do not come over to NCAA. What is going to be interesting is when they commit. Carson Carels, for example, is looking like he has a ton of NCAA interest. Does he wait until after the season to commit? I think enough players are playing in the CHL with NCAA commitments for it not matter as much.
  10. I’m sure Bryn wants flexibility to get “his” guys for future years. I believe Cooper Williams is the only committed recruit that is Bryn’s work. It’ll be interesting to see how many guys do not make it to campus because the new staff wants to go in a different direction. We will need one or two more freshmen forwards for 26/27. We will probably also lose a player or two early, whether that is in the portal or pro. I think the portal window will be very active next spring. Having flexibility will be very important.
  11. In my opinion, UND should absolutely wait out any top guy that could come to college for this last forward spot. Desnoyers is the main guy, but I would even wait out Roobroeck or someone else in the weeds. If they are unable to land someone of that caliber, I would suggest adding a player from the portal with expiring eligibility. It’s not flashy or fun, but it gives Bryn flexibility for future years. That gives Bryn a full year to scout and recruit another guy that he is absolutely sold on. It also gets them flexibility in the portal next spring as well. I think bringing in a mid tier CHL player or sophomore/junior from the portal would handcuff us in future years.
  12. I wonder if the Martone news this morning was the domino that needed to fall for them to give Young the “green light.”
  13. I agree. I’m not sure how many players out there would be able to take ice from Ben Strinden, Menghini, or others for top 6 minutes for next season. It is also hard to recruit a kid when he knows he won’t get those minutes. Those guys aren’t the best players, but they were good juniors players and have 2-3 years of college training and experience. I think bringing in a center and moving Littler to wing (full time) is a more realistic option.
  14. Spunar and Sandy did not get bat signals. Spunar is a very solid recruit but was pretty much a done deal for months. I do not think it’s a good idea to have the fan base go crazy for Young or Sandy to commit. They just wanted to be under the radar, which is not a bad thing.
  15. Menghini was before Bryn was hired and Rickwood got a bat signal. UND legend Isaac Gordon also got a bat signal
