I saw some Puck Preps screenshots on Twitter the other day that said Hensler’s final 3 are UND, Michigan and Wisconsin (not Minnesota). Also gave all 3 schools a 33% chance of getting him so they really went out on a limb there lol.

If that was indeed a joke, I definitely missed it lol. That's precisely why I asked if he was being serious!
Oh Irish was definitely serious. As for the rest of us though… *shrugs*

No, no. I'm not arguing that. OF COURSE, I want more of the highest end.
Irish quoted a tweet that is talking about a kid who is 10 years old. 10. That's why I asked if he was serious.
The post about recruiting the 10 year old was clearly supposed to be a joke and something for us to laugh at. Guess some missed the joke

We have some nice players coming in but these are the type of recruiting battles we need to start winning again - we need to get back to being a national power.
I think we can worry about our recruiting of high school juniors at this time as opposed to 10 year olds though.

To be fair he also chose it over Harvard. If you choose St Cloud over Harvard....well....
I read the guy’s commitment article and I read those schools (UND, Harvard, etc) as schools that showed recruiting interest. It didn’t specify “offers.” I mean he talked about how great SCSU’s facilities are. So I’m not sure he even took a visit to UND. But that’s just my interpretation of his quotes.

What about Hagens?
All I hear in regards to him is UMN unfortunately.
The article behind the paywall apparently says he is going to Harvard

Anyone have a subscription to this care to share some of where the big recruits are possibly heading?
Don’t have one but if anyone was curious the subscription is $149 annually or $14.99/month.

First place team gets a first round bye?
I’m not in favor of the first place team getting a bye. I think there should be a one game playoff between 8/9 for the right to play the first place team in a 3 game series.

David Klee to the Sharks at No. 196 overall (7th round)!

It will be interesting to see how it goes with the really high end guys going forward, and I'm talking top 5 or 10. I would be surprised if Fantilli stays another year, and some of the guys that stayed two were a result of Covid. Guessing Cooley might be a result of Arizona's issues. Regardless of those circumstances, I think that Makar has kind of opened people's eyes as to what another year of development can do to make you ready to not only enter the NHL but make an immediate impact. Will be interesting to see how many follow that same path going forward.
Also I’d consider what has happened to some of the guys who did leave after one year, when quite a few of them clearly should have stayed for two.

Ok. That makes sense.
At least that is close enough to Sioux City.
Its a bit of a haul to get from Heron Lake to SF.
Darn, Windom or Worthington missed out on a stud goalie then.
Right. I was trying to think of what high school programs near Heron Lake had hockey programs. They were in my high school’s section for track when I was in high school and were consolidated with Okabena and Lakefield and Brewster at the time.

Was looking at the incoming freshman and noticed the hometown of Hedquist.
Heron Lake, MN????
Did he play HS hockey anywhere?
I don’t think so. He committed out of the Sioux Falls Power program.

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.
Matej Tomek came from the NAHL. Obviously he didn’t work out.
There has been some other non-goalies but most either didn’t play thru their senior year or they played minimal roles. I think UND is more likely to grab guys from the MJHL over the NAHL. We’ve gotten some good depth guys there.

Are the top five centers Schmaltz, Berg, McLaughlin, Jamernik, and Ness?
Or is Perron ready to step in to the center spot as a freshman?
I look at that list of possible centers and it gives me hope that the plan is to move from the top six/bottom six mindset into a more modern three scoring lines, one grind-energy line, world. I really only see two "grind" centers (Jamernik, Ness).
Perron isn’t a center. Emerson is the one who could potentially play center but he played wing most of this season.

I actually don’t think eisermann will ever make it on campus. He had a big U18 year this year….he’ll explode next year in year 2 and he’ll be the 1-2 pick. We shall see if he ends up there.
I have my doubts also. I was thinking he probably should’ve accelerated and since he didn’t I’m not sure he ever makes it there.

I’m not a great hockey mind but thought Strathman looked really good. Had a very aggressive style and is skilled with the puck.
Fun to watch the two of them. Tickets are $10 and kids 12 and under are free for the playoffs. Great entertainment.
I was at the game last night and I agree with your take on Strathmann. Didn’t notice any glaring defensive issues but Youngstown played a good defensive game and Fargo really didn’t have that many good opportunities.

Am I being overly sensitive or was there some veiled shots in those quotes?
There were.
Also the writer of the article takes shots at UND at every opportunity so nothing new there.

O’Neill I’m probably the most confident on.
The other 2, tough to say because based on their projected arrival and our current defensive situation there may not be spots in that class without some departures in the current group, which is tough to predict.
