    Making the tourney needs to be a minimum expectation.

    Every year. Too many advantages for that not to be the expectation.

    I like the chances that that minimum will be met this season.

    Color me optimistic.

    Depends on how the team gels…how the new faces fit in and perform. Last years team (on paper) should have been very solid. The dcore looked really really solid. They simply underperformed.

    His dad was also short, but stocky. Did you ever see his dad Curtis Murphy play? If his son is anything like Curtis Murphy, he will be outstanding. Curtis Murphy is one of the best defenseman to ever play at UND. He was also a great AHL player, but didn't get much of an opportunity in the old NHL where size was considered a must. 

    Agreed, great post. Had he grown in todays game he would have played in the NHL.

    No disrespect to Carter Murphy but I don't feel like a 5'6 prospect is a high-end prospect atm. 

     

    He made the 5 nations team…played u16 instead of 15o so he’s clearly a really good player. Albeit tiny.

    I don’t know much about him but I believe it is all but certain Murphy commits.

    Definitely worth noting. He was one who was following a handful of schools, but not UND. If they can just pull one from the Mooney / Potter / Hensler group. 

    I know he almost played in Pitt last year before deciding on Dallas…maybe we could get both Mooney and Potter  :)

    In other news, I saw Cullen Potter started following UND on Instagram yesterday… 

    I’m telling you…that kid is special. I’ve seen him practice/play a bunch. That would be unreal if we could get him. I’m assuming that’s highly unlikely though.

    Of the 20 big recruit names on the Schloss list that were eligible to commit on 8/1, only two have committed thus far. 

    O'Neill to UND and McKinney to Michigan.

    The schloss is def missing some higher end kids…PuckPreps 3-5 rankings are gone. I’m guessing schloss knew we were out on a few kids and didn’t include them.

    This kid played one year as a freshie @ South and then a AAA team last year in Chicago, is that correct?

    Good height..what caused his uptake as a solid recruit, a good summer + time spent in the USA hockey Select Festival?  I’m just generally curious. Nice to see a Fargo, ND on the team in the upcoming years. 

    Yep, played ND HS then tier 1 last season. Same thing spicer did. Tier1 helps with exposure, etc. Most likely was the primary reason he was selected for the NTDP team.

    I’ve heard he’s always been good. Probably was the increased exposure playing tier 1 along with the fact he’s really athletic. Typically the athletes win in the long run.
