Solid road win in a game where the Sioux weren't at their best. Some real nice plays but also some bad turnovers, getting caught out of position too much, and just overall sloppy at times. The Caggiula-Schmaltz-Boeser line just completely controlled the game when they were on the ice and it was very fun to watch. I'm skeptical of the 38 shots they had SCSU for but Hrynkiw was tested more tonight and he did enough to get the win but he did seem to be out of position more tonight and struggled with rebound control. It was tough to hear the announcers say Fighting Hawks and I'm glad they didn't use it to much because I don't think I will ever get use to it. Probably need to cut down on the turnovers and just be a little cleaner tomorrow night to get a Fighting Sioux sweep.

From what I've heard he is one of the fastest players on the team and creates a lot of chances but has been a little snake-bitten and just not able to finish chances which his something he is usually pretty solid at. Numbers may not show it but Bowen is playing very well in the BCHL.

I don't remember a lot of people saying for coaches to go sign the EGF guys immediately but more just saying that team had a lot of D1 prospects to keep an eye on. UND has already signed C.Poolman and Bowen off that 1st EGF Championship team now and they are keeping close tabs on guys Tye Ausmus in the USHL and Tweten and G.Loven who will be SRs this year. I'm not sure how many of them will end up at UND but I would be surprised if there isn't 5-6 players off that team that play D1 hockey somewhere.

Sioux looked very good tonight.. Hope LaDue isn't out too long and we can get the same kind of performance and pick up the sweep tomorrow.

Same for me I would be surprised if the voting numbers don't go down this time.

Bad loss to a bad team but it is only one game. Tonights performance reminded me of the opener against BSU last season just a really sloppy and lackadaisical game. Would expect a much more complete effort and bounce back performance to get the split tomorrow.

A little bit tough to think of a comparison for him but he does remind me some of Brock Nelson. Good size, stays in high school through SR year when he coulda went USHL, very skilled. Mattson may be a little more physical than Nelson but I think Nelson was more skilled and a better finisher as a SR.

Horrible clock management after the review overturned the TD you have to know the clock is gonna start. Tough to get much of a push on the QB sneak with Michigan having 2-3 guys offsides including the NT. The Gophers played really well but scoring the TD and then having it reviewed and overturned which was the right call and then the game ending the way it did made it an excruciating tough loss ending a pretty emotional week for the program.

As a Gopher football fan I would be happy with giving Claeys the opportunity and it would help keep together a very good recruiting class. If they decide to go a different way I'd go after Pat Narduzzi since Pitt's coaches seem to leave pretty quickly recently or Tom Herman from Houston although I wouldn't be surprised if he gets looks from USC or Miami too.

Minnesota Coach Jerry Kill retired today due to health reasons, very emotional press conference was kinda tough to watch.

Poolman

Really nice game tonight showcasing the speed and skill. The Schmaltz line was dominant again and I love the creativity and chemistry they seem to have. Nice job all around of limiting Vermont to very few quality chances as well.

Great start came out with a lot of speed and took BSU a while to adjust. As the game went on BSU did a pretty good job of clogging stuff up and taking away shooting lanes and really just playing their typical tough to play against style. The injuries seem to be mounting after losing Janatuinen in game as well. The Schmaltz line looked pretty solid creating chances again tonight but seemed like they missed Gersich who I think is about the perfect fit with Schmaltz and Boeser so hopefully we can get him back tomorrow. Goaltending is still a pretty big concern for me especially with Cam's injury and another couple goals that probably should have been stopped tonight. I think Bemidji had 3 PP goals and we have know given up 4 in 3 games so really gotta get the PK figured out. Also not sure on the numbers but seem like we struggled on faceoffs especially in the d zone.

Caggiula

Hard to tell too much from radio but sounded like a pretty decent job generating offense and really seemed like the top 2 lines pretty much dominated when they where on the ice. Goaltending is still a bit of concern to me hopefully Cam can bounce back tomorrow with a solid performance.

Over The Boards ‏@OTBPuckWatch 8h8 hours ago 01 F Grant Silianoff (SSM U14) commits to Notre Dame. Nice look, skilled skater from Edina. On fire his 2nd year at SSM: 26 pts, 11 games.

Over The Boards ‏@OTBPuckWatch 5h5 hours ago Sounds like 2016 draft prospect Mike Graham is uncommitted again. Scorer from Eden Prairie (MN) had been a UMD recruit.

Gersich-Caggiula-Johnson Chyzk-Schmaltz-Boeser Janatuinen/Gardner-St.Clair-Poganski Wilkie-Simonson-Olson Ausmus-Stecher Thompson-LaDue Shaw/Wolanin-Poolman Johnson Tomek Hrynkiw EX:Sanderson, Gornall, Chartrand

He was a junior last year this is his senior year.

Not completely sure but I'd guess he is still playing at EGF and just playing in the fall elite league right now.
