Draft picks mean nothing...blue chippas...show me first round talent aka Parise, Stafford, Zajac, Oshie, Toews, Nelson, Boeser

He's a 3rd or likely 4th round pick according to Central Scouting. I'm not losing sleep.

Academics at D1 college hockey schools according to US News national rankings: The Ivy's scattered across top 15 Notre Dame #18 Michigan #27 BC #38 BU #42 Northeastern #44 Madison #49 RPI #49 Ohio State #56 Penn State #59 UConn #63 Umass Amherst #70 Minnesota #76 Michigan State #85 Miami #96 DU #96 Vermont #96 Clarkson #102 UNH #106 ASU #115 Michigan Tech #136 UMass Lowell #157 Maine #177 Robert Morris #183 UND #205 Bowling Green #215 All Others are lower

ASU for quality of co-eds...no brainer

Did you just quote yourself

SCSU's fan board is not letting anybody new on! That's kinda funny. i was actually going to congratulate them on a great season, and I was denied...which is pretty funny, considering LinkedIn and siouxsports is my only online presence

Well done sir Serves me right for multi-tasking

its still hockey though...and the beer tastes just as good after a long week

glad you boys could spend some time comparing who's......vocabulary......is bigger... sadly it doesn't change the fact that I'm watching UMD vs DU tonight

Thanks boys! Good luck in life's adventures. You are forever part of the Sioux family.

I have always respected you, and I gervwhat you're saying, but I'm not confident this group has it. I hope I'm wrong, buddy

Buyouts are an interesting thing...I've been through a couple. Not hockey, but business. There are exactly licit terms. And just cause you sign a contract for x dollars over y period of time, it doesn't mean you get paid all of it. You usually have a severance component, a vesting of other benefits, and an exit clause

In a position where that's never a good thing

Take it offline- happy to give you details.

We dont know yet...but they could be. Point is we were not good, and if just one of our recruits is like those guys...

In the big picture $400k is nothing. I live in a world where that salary gets you fired for underperformance fast.

A lot of guys lost minutes to some freshmen named Toews, Duncan and Oshie

It can't get worse!!! We were atrocious offensively.

Cheerleaders are not fans.

I've been watching Sioux hockey since I was 3. I ran with my dad from university Ave to the old Ralph to see phil Sykes and Doug smail . I also have played the game and am currently a USA hockey coach. criticism is deserved.

I meant to put Yon on there too- got distracted. Will edit

By that standard, some of our best players this year were non-producers.

Other skaters that could be cut aren't scholarship and can continue to practice/play roles. Berry gets an "underperforming" review to be put on notice

Yon...cut Hoff...cut Bowen...cut Johnson...cut coach Shaw...fired thats about right

totally agree. I don't doubt the boys gave it there all, but the product was not entertaining. Like I said in a different post. The Jacques Lemaire era of the Wild made it so I can never be a fan...as much as I love Parise and as much of a regional loyalty I feel. I cheer for the Jets over the Wild.
