I wonder how that will work. Q runs a fast transition game from the defensive zone out...from what we saw of Moore this year, he struggles with making good & quick decisions in those scenarios. We'll see if Pecknold can get him up to speed.

Ouch. WMU loses a lot of scoring from this season.

From Schloss: Some moves today/over the weekend: Omaha F Jack Randl to use his fifth year w/ Mavs AIC F Reggie Millette to portal Ohio State D Dominic Vidoli to portal CC F Matthew Gleason to St. Thomas UMass F Cal Kiefiuk to Providence Sacred Heart G Luke Lush to RIT Huge news from UNO to keep Randl another year. He ended the season a bit more quiet but he was leading the country in goals for a bit there in the 1st half.

Speculation.

Expected Roster as of 4/2/23 - Going by a somewhat typical 26-man roster (15 F / 8 D / 3 G): Forwards (13) Fr - Emerson / Perron So - Blake / James / McLaughlin / Strinden / Montgomery (RS) Jr - Schmaltz / Kunz / Berg Sr - Gaber / Jamernik / Ness Defense (6) Fr - Benoit / Komzak / Wiebe / Livanavage / Strathmann Gr - Pyke Goalies (3) Fr - Hedquist So - Johnson Sr - Persson Undetermined Decision from Albrecht Portal and/or Recruit F - Need one or two depending on what Albrecht does D - Need two

Yeah that's an option...it's been done before.

Talk about having the entire net to shoot at. Heck of a diving glove save from Adam Scheel.

It's gonna be like a Chicago Steel reunion next season when BU and UND play.

That's a good get for them. He always seemed like a quick shifty forward.

I hope he gets the appropriate amount of &$%# if they don't win the title now.

Well, in that case... Tychonick - 10-24-34 +2 Berg - 18-29-47 -1 Those are their combined stats for the last two seasons, both playing for Omaha. Berg is going to end up being a great pickup for Berry. Still two more seasons to develop into a solid center for us.

You’re comparing a 5th year player to a sophomore. I’d wager that Berg easily surpasses those numbers next year.

Yeah for sure, they're not ones to hold grudges. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/cameron-berg-to-fulfill-dream-by-playing-at-und

Pretty cool story with all the UND players on the Senators. Good luck for UND as well.

Yeah, I'd guess we hear more on the Judd situation early next week. If they want to sign him, you'd think they'd make that push sooner rather than later. Agreed on Berg. I think he and Larson are the best two forwards in the portal. Landing him was a big one...I think he'll instantly slot into a top 9 role (going with the three definite scoring lines/one shutdown line).

Berg to UND!! Huge get for Berry.

These two are going to be fun to watch once they get to campus:

Decent chunk of early departures the last couple days. The trio of Mankato juniors (Hirose, Livingstone, and Pavel), Kuntar (jr) from BC, Fulp (jr) from WMU, Laferriere (so) from Harvard, and Dobes & Lohrei (both soph from OSU) all signed in the last day or two.

So no prediction from you again this season that we'll go undefeated?

Team can't catch a break this offseason. Gonna be a whole different team next year. I still think the offensive group will be elite. Just gonna be a whole new group of player numbers to remember...like half the team.
