I literally LOLed when I saw the Rinaldo trade. 8 career goals in four seasons .... As a center... For a second rounder lol. Rinaldo was a 6th himself. Insane.

I expect to see scoring improvement from all the upperclassmen, honestly. Chyz... 5-7 more St. Clair... 2-3 more LJ... Need him to step into elite numbers... 10+ more Drake... See LJ... Need a 25 goal season Schmaltz... 5-7 more... Bunches of assists Pogo... 5-7 more Olson, Simo... 2-3 more

Well... we do have 6 captains haha.

I think this is a great idea!

HAHAHA snap. I despise the Wings, but that was flippin' funny.

Oh man, I went on there to comment on that Hak article and forgot my avatar was a Rangers emblem. They just flipped out lol. I was trying to tell them how great of a coach Hak is and how much they'll love him and got shellacked. It was pitiful lol. Gf would fit in quite nicely

I love that quote. Glad he's already embracing what it means to don that jersey. Bring it, Mr. Tomek. We ride you to No. 8, buddy.

God you're such a troll. I just don't understand how we all fall for it.... Every. Single. Time.

Shaw officially announced http://www.undsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=13500&ATCLID=210166704

But maybe if they draft him, Hak will just keep telling him to stay at UND lol.

Doesn't look like it... http://undhockey.areavoices.com/

It's the RSS feed on Brad's site.

Wow.

Exactly. Can any of you make a really hard argument against any of the six? I certainly can't.

Yeah, I can see that. That being said, that kind of talk doesn't come off being very captain-like, IMO. I hope that wasn't the case. All things aside, I think all of them deserve the recognition. All I those 6 clearly love this program and have put in the time here to get the distinction of going down in history as a player to have worn a letter at UND. All well deserved.

Can't tell if this is sarcasm with the ellipses added on the end, but this is actually what I thought lol.

It'd be like rewarding them because they're leaving the program early. Is it the thought ... "Well, they've been great for us, so we better give them this now, in case they are gone."? I don't buy that. I think it's just because they are great leaders and players.

That's why I am asking why he believes that. I want to know why getting a letter is an indication he's leaving. I think LaDue and Stecher could have definitely left and been successful and could very well see them doing it after this coming season, I just want to know what he thinks the connection is. Not arguing whatsoever, just trying to understand.

All of mine are in there in some shape or form. Whiffed on Gage being a "wild card" though lol

They are two of the best leaders on the team and got As because they deserved them. I don't see the connection. Are you suggesting it's some sort of a bargaining chip by the team to get them to stay, or what?

I guess. But the way I see it, you earned the letter, you wear the letter and I'd be surprised to see them rotate. I know a lot of NHL teams rotate the letters due to injuries, at times. I do think 6 is probably too many, but I don't think it's ridiculous. I see it as leadership depth.

You think so? Why's that? Not being sarcastic, I'm actually just curious. Or maybe they all deserve it? Which I think they do.

Per Schlossman on Twitter: "Five players will wear As for UND next season: Drake Caggiula, Bryn Chyzyk, Colten St. Clair, Paul LaDue and Troy Stecher." I love this. Good stuff. All deserving.

Thank you. I'm sick of hearing "we play a dump and chase offense".

We gotta get these kids. C'mon Bubs and Jacks. Get it done!! Anyone else got a good feeling about this? I feel like them being at Penticton is a great sign.
