Breaks commitment to CC, now heading to ASU:

Both head coaches from the USHL Clark Cup finals are moving on...

You absolutely, 100% don't want one of the team captains hitting on other teammates girlfriends. That is for sure a way to fracture some team solidarity. Also you probably don't want the HC to play the lesser skilled upperclassmen in more prominent roles that could be given to higher skilled underclassmen. That can cause some division, especially if the team is under-performing. Just spitballin' here.

Was told that he'll end up just staying overseas.

If there's one blue blood program that is setup the worst to deal with this new CHL ruling, it is for sure Minnesota.

Has to be, right?

Are we gonna see a Bat Signal from Chyz tomorrow? Seems to have been landing on Friday's for the most part.

You're gonna have to wake up earlier than that Sic to get one past them!

It'll be really interesting to see how productive some of these CHLers are in NCAA. You look at a guy like Noah Powell (also an ASU newcomer). Puts up 5 points in half a season at OSU, then moves to the OHL where he puts up almost a pt/gm there. Now back to the NCAA. It honestly wouldn't shock me if most of these guys only score like 10-12 pts as freshmen. Going up against much more defensive, and older, and stronger opponents...it's gonna be an eye-opener for the vast majority of them.

Anyone heard any more rumblings about McMorrow & Smaby being a package deal? Kid would be a great pickup. This goal was all him...his hustle to win the puck battle, then being in the right place to bang it home.

I know there was some speculation on where McKamey was gonna play this fall:

Schloss did a deep dive into Williams and WHL U17 scoring stats. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/schlossman-what-level-of-prospect-is-new-und-commit-cooper-williams

Yeah @SiouxFanatic posted this yesterday. Bear's medical team think the laceration is already fully healed.

Kid sounds exactly like the type of player that Chyz and Jax would be looking for...kid was born to be a Sioux. Get him signed up!

Adding a player like Bear to the team this fall would be a monster boost. Defense should be a huge strength, goaltending looks solid...just need a couple offensive players to join up to piece it together.

It sounds like both Chyz and Jax are really stressing keeping and recruiting players that really buy into the university and the team. Whether that ends up being the case with these higher end recruits, I guess we'll see. But we can hope that they are successful with that.

Wow, did not see him going to MSUM. Surprising...nice pickup for them:

PuckPreps puts him at 4.5 stars:

He visited campus last week. Sounds like it was awesome Thanks JBD!

Make it rain, Chyz. Make it rain.

Noice. Great pickup for Chyz and Jax!

Very solid numbers for a 17yo in the WHL this past year.

Haha love these Friday morning teasers. And now we anxiously await the Schloss article.
