Not “high end” for our team but high end for the big gals….

Potter to Michigan State.

But recruiting has fallen off and we are second fiddle to UM, MI, BU, BC …

Jost has played over 400 games in the NHL in the past 7 years since he left und. He’s made about $7.5 million dollars. I understand why Sioux fans think he should’ve stayed another year Perhaps he would’ve developed into a top 6 instead of a bottom 6. But I can tell you every member of his und team thought he was ready for the show and clearly he was. It’s worked out for him.

Absolutely. If he was 2” taller and 20 lbs heavier he would be a first round lock. Don’t believe all the mock drafts. There’s a chance he goes first round. I think middle 2nd. He’ll be an elite college hockey player. Super skilled.

Right. I figured a few goalies but very few skaters. The Juice is Junior A but tier II Canada nonetheless …

Good call.

Can anyone think of a player UND has taken directly from the NAHL? i cant think of any off the top of my head. A bunch have went NAHL to USHL to UND.

Agreed. And in Luke’s mind, he expected more ice time but it was taken up by transfers.

It’s now official. BCHL has gone independent from hockey Canada.

Have you considered that the “failure” could also be the fault of the student athlete and not the head coach? Did the athlete do what he said he was willing to do? Did he show up for class? Get good grades? Take full advantage of his opportunities? Get along with his teammates? Not get homesick? Like GF?

They announce them asap to put pressure on the other portal transfer/prospects they are recruiting to make a decision. “We only have so many spots available. We just filled one, etc.”

More often than not, the team who unloads the most talent off the bus wins the game. Not this game. The rodents clearly had the most talent. But Motzco got out coached and his players got out worked. Man I love hockey. What a great game.

Right. Or the first pp of the game they got for their guy getting checked in the arm lol.

Typical rodent fans… complaining about a penalty even though the opponent didn’t score on that pp anyway. It was a penalty. I would rather it not be called at that moment in a game… glad it didn’t decide the game. They should be complaining about their coach going into a shell. Most powerful offense in the country. They should’ve kept pushing to score to win. Not D up to hang on by one. Credit to Q too. Those boys worked as hard as you could to win that game. Phenomenal coaching job by Rand as well. What a gutsy move . He coached with brains and balls. Motzco not so

Easy to look fast when you only skate from the blue line to the hash marks as well.

What a haul! Who the heck is Todd Alexander?

Dane turned down an NHL assistant coaching job (Flyers via Hak) to stay at UND. I think this was more of a family/young kids decision at the time to stay in GF as well as job stability. Maybe things have changed now years later? Better timing? He’s definitely deserving of a HC opportunity and I think his names been in the hat quite a few times over the past several years. Honest question; would he be taking a pay cut to be HC at kato?

At least we can watch the Senators and feel like the Sioux season isn’t over…

How about some good news! Who else is exited to watch Tyler Kleven’s NHL debut tonight? I can’t wait to watch him put someone on their wallet without getting a penalty for it. K-Train is coming through. Get off the tracks! So happy for this young man.

I was just “laying out” that it definitely does matter who stays and who goes. And that DU, Minny, and Mich are not top ten every year regardless. That’s all. And I =+*^%# hate the rodents so I took a little extra jab at them specifically. This is a Sioux forum

What short memories people have. Just two years ago, Minnesota was the 5th best team in their State!

Well that about settles it. Pull the trigger Bubs!
