… sounds like it’s really between the other two though so Berry would rrrreeeeaaaallly need to pull a rabbit out of his hat.

There is a better chance of getting all five guys @AJS previously mentioned than there is of getting Eiserman. (So not great).

Pretty good ebb if you ask me

I’m mostly trying to figure out what people are complaining about.

Well that article doesn’t mention the allegations of misleading recruits on scholarship money. That’s gotta play a part in that somehow.

Haha I think there was a 0.000000001% chance of that kid NOT going to UMD.

He played at Mount St Charles in Rhode Island. UND has pulled a few players from there recently.

I’ve been looking but most of the write ups I’ve seen so far don’t cover all player evals.

Judd also disappears from a production standpoint for really long stretches at a time every season. I know he is valuable in other ways but for a team that has struggled scoring I don’t think he’s pencilled in for top 6 at all. Gaber is literally the only guy who played top 6 last year that should have their top 6 spot secured. The other spots should be up for grabs.

Costantini is drafted by Buffalo and the article has theirs as “TBA” and I saw they haven’t announced their camp roster yet. So he could still be going.

Okay thanks. I remember he signed quite a bit further into the summer than guys usually do but wasn’t sure exactly when it happened.

Not to be that person but… Didn’t it happen with Nick Schmaltz too? Granted not as late as Jasper, and not the same situation, but wasn’t the chatter that he was going to come back for his junior season until he went to Development camp and the Blackhawks talked to him and then he signed?

Maple Grove if I recall.

I think it could continue to be a trend- seeing more Canadians come down to the USHL. With the restrictions in Canada due to Covid and the uncertainty of seasons being played the last few years, more kids started to make the move and have had success so I could see it gaining traction.

I’m not sure it’s possible. My roommate my last year at UND was a first year med student and the schedule she had was insane.

Would guess MBA based on his summer internship plans.

I assume he will enroll in grad school.

I guess I don’t see why it would be. They aren’t governed under the same governing body (USA Hockey vs Hockey Canada), and it seems there is no agreement in place about this. It just gives kids options.

This has been happening for years.

Only since they moved into REA after women’s hockey was cut.

UND also beat out 18 other schools for him.

We are not. Looks like he wants to go to a big school based on his top 5. If he’s looking to play college next year we wouldn’t be a fit anyway. If he plays another year in Chicago could always try to change his mind I guess.

I don’t remember the player’s name but if I recall Northeastern blocked him from going to Denver. He ended up staying at Northeastern before eventually transferring to Minnesota.

I guess I wouldn’t bring him in to play 4th line minutes, so I’d expect him to be top 9. IMO you bring him in to challenge for a top 6 role. Might be more third line but have the flexibility to play top 6. Might be an unpopular opinion but there were a couple guys who disappeared from the scoresheet for long stretches last season who are returning top 6 guys. I’d like some more options when this happens.
