Any idea who the other two schools might be?
One of the other schools was St. Cloud and I'm not sure what the other one is.

And how good is this kid supposed to be?
He was rated as an A prospect by CSS's 2010 watch list. I saw him play with Shattuck last year and he was one of the top 3 fowards on the team.
-
I was informed that Shattuck St. Mary's senior Jason Clark was here last night and that UND is one of three schools that he is looking at.

USA - have you been to New Hope to watch any games?
A couple weeks ago I went - they must have been experimenting with the goals/nets - the colors were reversed.
The goal was painted white and the netting inside the goal was red. Anyone else seen this before?
No I haven't, I'm way to busy to make it down there for any games. I post about the league on a weekly basis to keep fans updated and if it's coming to their local area, they know about it.

I was down at the rink today looking at the new authentics and up close they look much better than in the images. I'm still not the biggest fan of the whites, but the greens look nice.

Now you got me started....
DU Fans. They're about the quietest, most boring fans in all of college hockey. They spend their time sitting on their hands. Unknowledgable also. Just horrible fans. They bore me. You could take a nap in that arena. The only thing that would wake you up is a few hard checks you might hear from their defensemen.
CC fans...that's another story. They rock! I always have a great time in The Springs! But, I hate the Denver crowd. Boring, boring, boring bunch. No wonder that announcer got her panties in a wad. She's used to quiet, boring DU hockey. Well sweetheart, welcome to the real world. If you can't stand the hear, get outta our kitchen!
Gwoz's actions this past year make me wish beyond all wishes that we sweep them in Denver. What a boor. What a maroon.
The city of Denver doesn't give a !@#$ about DU Hockey unless they're good (and even that's questionable at times). When we've been there in the past half the arena is Sioux fans.

The NAHL and NAHL Future Prospects Showcases are taking place in Blaine this weekend. Keep in mind that the NTDP 17U team is there which has a few players on it that we're recruiting. Here are the schedules,

I will admit, this image looks much better than the image on Schlossman's blog. Still not the biggest fan, but not as worse as what I originally thought.

Those make me want to cry, they are so ugly. I like old school, but these don't even look old school to me. They look like cheap $30 style jerseys you'd pick up at Wal-Mart or something. I was very excited to see what we'd get, but am truly disappointed. The green "cuffs" on the home jerseys need to go, it's just way to gaudy.
We went from the nicest jerseys in hockey to some of the worst.
I agree with you here. I like the striping, but everything else about the jerseys sucks. The Sioux logo and print is to small, the white on white ND is bad on the home jerseys, and the green cuffs on the home jerseys don't make it look old school at all. These look like little kids jerseys that you would buy at K-Mart.

This is the kind of crap that I think is funny. This was from Brad's blog in the comments. I don't there is any monkey business behind the scenes.
The individual that posted that has no idea of what he is talking about. Gregoire changed his commitment because he wanted to be closer to home and the St. Clair situation is a matter of a 14 year old making a decision to early. Just because a player switches his commitment to another school doesn't mean that the coaches were not honoring the "gentlemen's agreement".

Big time pickup

isnt it van voorhis thats on the sioux radar? cant remember if thats the one though
Yes....him and Jake McCabe.

The NTDP 17U team released their roster today, many of these names have been known for awhile though, here it is,
-
Those are goon numbers....no offense Goon.
He's a defensive minded defenseman, but the numbers also don't tell the whole story. From I understand there were some conflicts between the parties (player, dad, and coach) regarding playing time and as a result wasn't given a fair opportunity. I think he's playing in Waterloo this year but I'm not positive.
-
I was informed that we're interested in Blake Thompson, who played for Sioux Falls in the USHL last year. I'm not sure as to the degree of interest though.
-
maybe so but we have a good amount of recruits as well commited. will be interesting to see what happens with white. hes a very good player so hope everything works out
If he's contemplating hanging up the skates, then this is probably more of a personal issue beyond his playing ability or development.

The 2009 Under-17 Five Nations Tournament starts tommorow, in case you forgot this was the team that was selected after the Select 16 National Festival. The U.S. team defeated Germany in an exhibition yesterday and will play their first game against Slovakia tommorow.

The U.S. lost to Sweden 9-2 in the bronze medal game this morning at the Ivan Hlinka, finishing in fourth place for the tournament. Parks didn't have any points this morning but overall had a pretty good tournament.

Here's a list of college hockey coaches and the length of time it took them to win a national title,
Jerry York (winniest college hockey coach of all time): 7 years to win a championship at BC
Bob Johnson: 7 years at Wisconsin
George Gwozdecky: 10 years at DU
Red Berenson: 13 years at Michigan
Don Lucia: 9 years if you count his tenure at CC and Minnesota
These are considered some of the best college hockey coaches of all time.
