Ruck's pick up right where they left off last season...still just pre-season though. Liam with a hattrick and Markus with 1g/2a in a 5-3 win for MH.

Landon playing on wing with his bros to start the preseason for the MH Tigers. He's usually a dman, so not sure if this is just to have them play all together or if he's making the change. Marto centering the 2nd line.

Updated! Playing with fellow UND commit Jundt.

Can't wait for that first puck drop!

I can see it now. Markus and Liam stick around until their JR/SR seasons so that they can play with Landon at UND.

Almost time to start memorizing new numbers and faces!

Already!!

A forward recruiting group of Ruck, Ruck, Fitzhenry, Sanderson, Williams...and England would be absolutely insane. Would love to see it.

Quick little Q&A with Malinoski and Magnussen from the NCHC:

Boo! I've seen a few different Mich people talk about Warren committing there, so I'm really hoping that it's him and that we're still in the running for England. Our forward group for next season is pretty dang full, but he's one of those guys that you make room for.
