  1. I’m assuming Bryn has been around there for most, if not all of the tournament. UND is already represented there. Dane showing face is, at the very least, a nice gesture for potential recruits and their families. I doubt he’d go down there unless they were pretty far along in the recruitment of a player(s) if Bryn is already there. They are probably looking at Carels and a European forward, like you said. That’s really all that is left to recruit in the tournament.
  2. In last night’s press conference, Dane mentioned he is going down to St. Paul today to recruit some of the players when asked if he will be watching Canada tonight. It’s pretty significant for a head coach to make a recruiting trip in between game weeks, in my opinion.
  3. Sneaky four point game for Rickwood. He’s been a stud this year. I also wouldn’t mind seeing more of Kernan. I just don’t know who you play him over. He’s going to be a good player.
  4. Is Stenberg on a similar contract? I noticed he has followed UND hockey on instagram within the last couple of months. He also follows BC, BU, and Michigan. It seems like he has some interest in college hockey but I am not sure if he’s eligible.
  5. He’s referring to multiple guys, which those two have been pretty linked to UND. The pool of uncommitted/eligible players is not very big at this this tournament, especially if you narrow it down to just players playing in juniors.
  6. It could be. Suvanto plays pro Europe so I am not sure if he’s eligible. With the current state of the NCAA, anything is possible. I would guess they are referring to a CHL player. They are pretty tapped into CHL prospects.
  7. According to Cam Robinson and Chris Peters, there are whispers around the world juniors tournament about guys going to North Dakota next year along with MacKenzie. I’m guessing he’s talking about Carels and maybe others. He states this around the 31 minute mark of this podcast today. Also good insight on MacKenzie’s draft stock in there too. Sounds like he probably goes in the first two rounds.
  8. Livanavage and Wiebe will be back tomorrow night according to Schloss if all goes as planned. UND booked them an earlier flight.
  9. If all of the world juniors guys come back for next year, that team could be special.
  10. Solid addition. It seems like the new staff is really prioritizing elite skaters. Ollie, MacKenzie, and now Klimpke are all great skaters. He’s having a really solid year and will have another year of juniors to get better. Similar to MacKenzie, he stated that he will play another year of juniors before he comes to campus. This probably means that UND is still looking to add a defenseman for next season. Carels, DuPont, etc. will probably be gone before Klimpke gets to campus if they land one of them. Lots of flexibility still.
  11. Listening to “Called Up the Prospects Podcast” with Cam Robinson and Chris Peters and they project Ethan MacKenzie as 2nd/3rd round pick this year with 1st round upside if he has a good world juniors.
  12. Williams will naturally get bigger over the next 9 months but he’ll definitely need to put on 5-10 extra pounds to be ready for college, whether that’s next year or the year after. Being over 6 feet and under 160 ponds is very lean. Bryn stated in his press conference this week that he will be at the World Juniors over break. I would guess that he primarily is supporting current players or committed recruits but it also is a good opportunity for him to interact with Carels, Steiner, etc. while they are away from their CHL teams. Having Reschny, Verhoeff, and MacKenzie certainly does not hurt his ability to recruit some of the uncommitted Canadians.
  13. I still think Carels ends up at UND if there is a spot available. There is a non zero chance that one of Livanavage or Wiebe returns for their senior season. If both are gone, which is likely, there is a clear opening in the top 4 for him to play with Verhoeff or Emery. I highly doubt any of the top Canadian targets commit before their season is done. Especially after Schloss said in a podcast last week that he has heard that none of the top WHL defenseman are far along in their college recruiting and close to committing somewhere. UND will have a way better idea of who is gone next year before their recruitment ramps up.
