  1. Seems like a solid get for 2026. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/und-picks-up-commitment-from-defenseman-ethan-mackenzie
  2. Bonus structure for Jax is significantly leaning towards post-season success: https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/dane-jackson-will-make-less-money-than-brad-berry-but-he-has-an-avenue-to-catch-up
  3. You're in luck. https://nchchockey.com/news/2024/5/14/mens-ice-hockey-nchc-adds-university-of-st-thomas-as-newest-member-beginning-in-2026-2027.aspx
  4. Would love for a couple of these blue chipper CHL guys to commit early in the new Aug 1st cycle and maybe get some more of their peers to follow.
  5. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/und-unveils-new-hockey-jerseys-1
  6. Yes! New jersey unveiling on Thursday...finalize the roster on Friday. Let's do it!
  7. Deleted posts and banned the user. Thanks for the heads up!
  8. Yep. But he deserved it.
  9. Don't the players have a vote for captains? If so, might be hard to do that already being that the roster isn't even set and some players aren't back in GF yet.
  10. This part gets me too each year when I visit GF after moving away. The campus has really grown into a beautiful area. It was always a nice campus (from when I went to school in the late 90's), but it looks so much nicer now.
  11. Don't forget Pionk from UMD.
  12. Timing of both announcements certainly makes it look that way.
  13. Desnoyers definitely has a better chance of playing 2 years at NCAA level than Martone. Just need to land the big fish.
  14. Nice. Like a lesser-skilled Brett Hextall. Good to see that he wore a letter as well for Merrimack, hopefully he can help lead some of the younger players even if he's not wearing a letter at UND.
  15. Well....at least he isn't from D3.
  16. Yes now that Young committed, that’s my thought/hope as well.
  17. I think he only does the bat signal on recruits, not transfers. I don't recall a bat signal for Rickwood or Menghini either, but I could be wrong on that.
  18. +1 Desnoyers would be monster...hopefully the fact that Bryn follows him means that we're in the conversation.
  19. One more spot to fill now and we will have a finalized roster for this fall. The addition of Young is nice from a depth and a class management perspective. Experienced forward that would hopefully be reliable when called upon...and as mentioned elsewhere, allows for another FR forward to fill his spot next season. Almost there! Forwards (14): SR - Strinden, James, Rickwood, Young JR - Menghini SO - Swanson, Littler, Croal, Andrew FR - Zellers, Klee, Zakreski, Kernan, Reschny Defense (8): JR - Zmolek, Livanavage, Wiebe SO - Emery, Strathmann, Jubenvill FR - Laurila, Verhoeff Goalies (3): SR - Sandy (RS possibility) JR - Homer FR - Spunar
  20. He was mentioned really early on in the transfer portal as someone that was a possibility at UND. Wouldn't be surprised if he got added, especially if we don't land one of the few CHL blue chippers remaining.
  21. Minnesota's stance of being so openly anti-Canadian for so many years is gonna bite them in the butt on the recruiting trail for quite a while. Hard to recover quickly from that.
  22. I read online that they are the Epicenter of College Hockey now though after the McKenna commit.
  23. Most big schools also have higher profile football and basketball programs that they will support more than hockey. UND has an advantage that hockey is the #1 sport on campus so can allocate more fund to it.
  24. We do have two roster spots open. What about Desnoyers AND Martone? Haha, I know that even just one would be a tremendous get. Can't wait to see who the last two forwards are...and who they start landing after Aug 1st for next year and beyond.
