Agreed, he seems to score at a decent rate.

Oh sure, I'm indirectly pointing to the fact that they may not come in and save the day next year. They are not first round talents and may slip a bit past the second round. I simply used you post to point that out. They did have good years, but appear to be more of the normal type of recruit UND should be getting.

They could be Tier 1....and attempt to go to nationals. They wouldn't and shouldn't be governed by the MSHSL. I would actually keep the Riders and Knights (obviously) and let kids who don't make the Tier 1 team try out for the local HS teams. Tier 1 is expensive though.

….and seniors. We barely get production from our upperclassmen. It's pretty nuts. Poolman is average .5 pts/gm (which is bad considering what he has done and the amount he plays) and Jones averages .75 pt/gm...which is not good considering what he did last year. No one else is even worth mentioning because their numbers are so far off expectations. The only two players on this entire roster who are probably outpacing their expectation are Kiersted, Smith and Senden. Everyone else is, statistically, having a bad year.

I can empathize with a lot of your points, but this is college hockey. You just named three underclassmen. Yes, each of them should have WAY better numbers and I do believe the vanilla/bland ozone strategy is mind-numbing to watch (as everything flows through the dmen), but they are underclassmen. In this day and age, if you're only relying on underclassmen to produce you have a colossal team makeup problem.

I haven't seen either of them play....however their numbers don't jump off the page. Especially since their teams are good and it's a high scoring league. I have heard they're very good though; Rizzo is pretty slick and crafty I have heard. Clearly not first round talent though, I'm guessing they go in rounds 2-4. Blaisdell was doing phenomenal there for awhile however his numbers tapered off towards the end of the year and his playoff stats (so far) haven't been good.

Cooper Zech bolts from Ferris to sign with Boston (AHL deal). He played with Weatherby last year in WEN. He had 28 in 36 games from the point.....why does Weatherby only have 5 in 34 as a forward. No, this is not me bashing an underclassmen....more me wondering why our team can't put up points.

He's a soph. Those who bash underclassmen need to chill.

Agreed. He has no business leaving at this point. He's no where near ready. Good player, just not ready. There is currently no one on this team that is ready.

Ya me too. All this bad....would be nice to catch some luck and make a little late season run.

Those are two stats...the main difference is pp%, pk%, and shooting %. I love corsi, but I am smart enough to realize you have to look beyond it as well. And to your point...it is two YEARS later. Bad luck doesn’t run that long.

Ya, he’d be a great get.

Michigan is super deep, so is the northeast.

That was against WMU though Denver is much higher in the PW

Blessing in disguise. They are higher in the PW. Need two wins next weekend

Oh for sure. I step back and look what’s happened the last few years and am shocked. Especially with the guys we do have. But, it was a big win. And we needed it. Frustrated with what’s happening but still bleed green.

That was big.

We need we need to stop bringing this up...Berry CANT go anywhere because of the payout. Clearly the program is going straight towards the dumpester however we still can’t fire him. Have to pray for a few gems in the upcoming recruiting classes.

What a joke, that last sequence is exactly what this season has been.

How is janatuinen not in this lineup?

Different thread

Collin Adams is over a pt/gm player at SCSU

Agreed, decisions being made are bad. This team has gotten away from them a bit. Tough to see. Everything is cyclical I guess.

Boys need to pick it up. Obviously we are beyond average, but we need the sweep.

Between 9 and 22....bonehead penalties every game
