He’s always been significantly bigger than everyone, even as a youngster. Even hit puberty before basically everyone. Really smart player, athleticism would be the biggest question mark. As someone else said…seeing him play Junior may be important.

Tough league

I’m guessing it was fairly known where he wanted to go. Advisors do the work in the background

Thoreson is a high ender for sure, I wasn’t doubting that for a second. And when it’s all said and done, he absolutely could be the top 09 dman. But as of today, it’s Diego. That’s fairly known actually. Again, things can change (and they do ). All in all, im glad we got a high ender that’s local!

Like the highest ceiling or highest in his draft year? Diego Gutierrez is widely considered the top 09 dman. But, they are in two different draft classes.

I’ve heard he could go to Youngstown

Yeah, totally would make sense

There’s two other dmen on Fargo with more pts. And again, pts aren’t everything with dmen. But he’s fairly undersized, there’s no rush with anything. Wouldn’t be a terrible decision whatsoever. Depends on who we lose I suppose. As others noted, Strathmann could bolt potentially. Hope not.

Lindberg could be pushed back a year tbh. Probably even should. Good player, but he could continue to get that offensive flair back. Come in more ready with a bigger role.

Not at all…unlucky the first few weeks of the year. Humming along nice now.

You could be right.

PP has been good….last weekend was pretty bad. Just need to watch some film. Seasons been fun to watch, keep building for playoff time.

Well when you frame it like that…as of today…sure he towards the top. 10s have a ways to go, but to your point he’s a day or 2 away from being a 10. Time will tell. But great get for us nonetheless. Andy Schneider’s nephew

No Diego has that…Thorson is more of a project. Great long term get though. Legacy kid

Super athletic, doesn’t have the highest IQ which really limits nhl potential

Heard we got a good one

Are you serious? Didn’t see any emojis

Bingo…tough loss to watch, not terrible on paper. Move on to next week. Assess the pp.

We’re out shooting them by a ton obviously, however every shot they get is a high end scoring opportunity

Shot is so heavy

Laurila really playing well right now!

That top pp doesn’t really look the part anymore. Neither Verhoeff nor Rickwood seem like prototypical flanks. Rickwood won’t shoot and Verhoeff has a really long release and his one T rarely hits the net.

Ouch Verhoeff wants that sequence back

Agreed 100%

Problem is our D core is so good. Laurila can’t sit, especially when he plays like he did last night. Basically played like a top 4 dman. i like the 12 and 7 approach honestly. Unfortunately, some tough decisions will have to be made up from.
