Will he remain a Bulldog next season? I guess I would think so. Good deal for him to not forfeit his NCAA eligibility while being able to practice and play games at an elite level.

I guess I sorta get it (major junior) as school isn't for everyone but I think WHL, OHL, QMJHL are continually losing ground developmentally to NCAA. For example, I would have liked to have seen Minot's Shoenborn play D1 instead of going to WHL. He found himself in hockey purgatory after juniors where as Morelli is making a real run, signed an NHL contract with a tough squad to crack but is an AHL regular and hopefully gets the call. There's a kid playing for Sioux City who was offered a full ride at Penn State and chose to play in the OHL for Erie. He was on the U-17 NDTP. He would have been an over-ager this season for them and he was released. Got picked up in USHL but what's his path now? Had Cole Smith played major junior I don't believe he would have developed into an NHLer. He might not have been on anyone's radar which was good in his case hence the MJHL. He came into NCAA as a below average skater and left as an NHLer. I think it's a great story and example of what NCAA can do developmentally. Kanes, Toews, Bedards, Oshies etc... doesn't matter what path they take. Duncan Keith left Michigan State to play in the WHL as well but he's a world class defenseman either way. Lot of bad advice out there in my opinion.

Imagine what 4 rounds of playoffs would look like although it will never be feasible at the college level. No one and done but there would be several teams without a championship as well. It would probably come down to the any of the 6 to 8 usual's every year. Maybe not a good thing for college hockey?

You’re talking about the same goaltending that stole one from Wisconsin, came into this series with a GAA below 2 n a save % of .927 or something like that? In my mind he didn’t have a chance on the first 4 Friday night either. It happens but weak-side assignments get missed, especially when chasing and/or tired. It happened last night in the third but the puck never got across, had it the game would have been over in regulation.

Got out while it's good I guess. Not a fan, a monkey coulda coached some of the teams he had. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Hope not, ESPN+ app has been nothing but garbage for me.

Sorry folks, yes. Made me laugh.

No I'm not happy about Saturday. My original comment was facetious no doubt. I didn't care for the carve regarding the hockey program is all. It was the term "unfortunately" which I perceived as a carve. Yes I want the football program to be better and more consistent, not at the expense of hockey though. I probably took the post I responded to out of context. Happens all the time these days with forums and texts etc...

Are you angry?

How is that unfortunate? Sorry, it'll always be hockey just not women's hockey.

Those for real? I would not approve if I were a Huskies fan.

Sorry if asked already. Will FSSN have the game or do I need ESPN+?

Nope not the time

Marty McSorley too. Think about what went on on the ice many years ago. McSorley & Bertuzzi stuff happened much more frequently. Not condoning that behavior but that was the way it was.

Very true. How often are medical personnel available at youth games? Coached for many years and have been at many tournaments, jamborees, and games with no medical personnel present.

Midway through 3rd I felt as though I was watching a regional game in March with us on the wrong end trying to even it up. Stay out of box n get some yield from PP and they'll be a tougher/toughest out. Great goalie, great sticks, and skill through lineup is solid, just gotta figure a few things out.

It looks like ESPN+ to be able to watch the trip out to BU. I dislike streaming platforms and having to pay for them.

I got caught trying to make a mixer in the stall at the old Ralph. Security figured it out after my 3rd. or so visit to the bathroom. Thankfully I was at least 21 at the time. They just kicked me out for the night.

Ya was wondering the same thing. Sure looked like it ..... "we got a game to play" is what I think followed

And he likes the blacks too.

Just wear the blacks. The others suck, especially the green jerseys.

not a surprise - decent player that needs to be around better players/competition

Really limited by NDHSAA as far as amount of games that can be scheduled and as we all know NDHSAA doesn't give a @#% about HS Hockey.

DU will roll their pod and WMU, UNO, Miami really doesn't interest me much. Calling it right now, we will have the best pod.

That works too
