Michael Forney is also one that went from prep to college and he was rushed. That did not end well for him. Not all his fault though.

Anyone have a link to highlights of the game last night? Would love to see a recap. Thanks.

Let's see if he wants to be part of the team for the remainder of the playoff run/final season. Be humble Brock, score and make your teammates better. Let's go!

Shutout for the 5th time this year. Unreal.

What a boring game to watch. All the little subtle plays are awful. Yuck!

I wouldn't judge based off the first game of state. Nerves and generally weird things happen on day 1 of state tourney. We'll see.

Red River looks good. They can play with Central, however to have a young Sophomore goalie step up to beat Central is one big ask. Crazy things have happened in the state tournament though. We shall see.

For people complaining of the quality of the webcast, they generally don't stream quarterfinals games. Keep in mind after today, the feed/stream will be better as it'll be on NBC locally. Webcast will be better tomorrow and Saturday. Be grateful.

If someone goes to the earlier games today, can you do us all a solid? What is price for single-day passes? Thanks!

Sharing in case anyone missed it. Hopefully, that future star that is in Peewees or Bantams goes to UND! http://www.nbcsports.com/video/full-episode-road-through-warroad

Weak clearling attempts and plays from the D starts with CONFIDENCE. Their tentative/transition game, which sucks, with its glass and out is contingent to the theory in reducing the small margin of error. Again, it's from confidence and not trying to make mistakes. Hence, the crappy play C. Poolman and Penski (given his progression) have had a respectful freshman campaign. Freshman "D", generally speaking and their transition to college is one of the harder positions to adapt to, given the college skill, speed and physicality level. C. Johnson is he great now? No. In his junior/senior year, will he be good? He "Should be" trending with that vision/goal. He's a 4-year player. In addition, "should be" a good 4-year player. Scoring issues with the forwards? Again, that comes from confidence too. See Wilkie, perfect example. You don't score 35 goals in your last year in the USHL if you're a mediocre player. College level is a whole new ballgame and it's a tough adjustment for "most" players unless you're elite. See Brock, Jost, Oshie, Toews, Parise, Stafford, Zajac, Nelson, Drake, Duncan, Bochenski etc. Anymore brain busters?

This is comical and mental. I want my time back from reading this stupid commentary. I guess this logic doesn't apply to the Chicago Blackhawks with their logo and not so great city (given specific areas) of Chicago. Oh, wait, they have 3 cups in 6 years. Just saying.

Wilkie having 0 goals is incredible. I just don't want to rip the kid though. In addition, Hoff only having 2? In October, Hoff was the best freshman of the bunch on both sides of the rink and played with some tenacity. Where's the progression?!

Who keeps bitching about skill and talent? This team has more there than the the injury year season and Rocco's campaign years so shut it Team needs garbage goals a string of confidence going forward.

Need some players to step up. Let's go!

Beat BC on that channel. Think again.

Then it's flooded and a commodity. Going forward, no benefit of joining if everyone does. :-(

This is the right time for UND to get a sweep. Jost will lead and a few others will follow. Sweep, but close games I'm anticipating.

Will be interesting to see what player turns out better. Him or RR's Costello, both, obviously going to UND so it's a win-win.

Skinny tall? Meaning he needs to fill out too? 6'3? Interesting...

Grand Forks/Fargo area people, how tall is Judd Caulfield? I will watch him on tv during the state tourney in a few weeks.

I have friends down there and a free place to stay, unfortunately your best seat for this tournament is on the couch these days. Saving my money and supporting my team for west regional. I've gone to this tournament twice in the last 3 years or so. It's dead to me (coming from a die hard WCHA Final Five fan). Last few years you could get cheap tickets off Groupon too I'll pass this year and going forward and save my $$$

Online or no?

In all honesty I don't know who can play with Brock. He's had zero chemistry with everyone up front.

Spot on here. Their ship has sailed. Also, thoughts on Bowen on 2nd PP unit? I know he's a freshie but why not? He's got 5 goals and at least he'll bus his ass off to the corner and battle where the team is super complacent on PP during puck battles. Olson on the PP? No more!
