The 3x3 prior to a shootout is a great idea. Should be fun to watch.

Just think....if we had a nickname Fabbro probably would have already committed by now.

Big get.

I was. The CPA in my username doesn't have anything to do with my profession however.

haha, I was kind of joking...some of you are intense...enjoy the remainder of your summer.

I am not discounting anything you posted, but I would temper expectations with Wilkie and Gersich. Yes, they could be solid freshman but it wouldn't surprise me if at least one of them went through a learning curve phase. I am expecting a guy like Chyzk to put it together this year. He has shown brief flashes of being decent however his consistency hasn't been there. He plays hard, plays solid D, and has a good shot. To start the year I would like to see him play top 6 minutes. Between Gersich and Wilkie, Gersich may be more likely to succeed in his first year of college hockey because of his motor. I could see Wilkie taking slightly longer.

Good representation huh? I'm guessing I know what their majors are. Also, young kids can be swayed so easily.

Agreed. He has that grinder mentality that could fit on one of the top two lines. He does have offensive skill, he simply needs to find some consistency. Put him out there with Schmaltz and Johnson. Let Caggs play with Boeser and maybe Chyzk to start the year.

....and the students have spoken. This is going to be an interesting ending I believe.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Pogo gets a chance to play top six minutes.

Always shocking to see someone you know fairly well go down like this. He should get what he deserves if found guilty.

I agree it would be shocking. He hasn't had that great of an evaluation camp. Cory Pronman had him as a bubble guy too. Boeser looks really good though. .

I don't think hrs a lock, another beat writer tweeted his projected picks and had schmaltz as a bubble guy but boeser was in. If schmaltz doesn't have a top 6 spot he will get cut.

I wonder if there's a chance Schmaltz is cut this year? Would be shocking I know but this team is super deep.

Roughriders....that's it. It's been posted and reposted 3k times:)

Yup, this is a great example of a kid who definitely should have taken the collegiate route. Lucky for him his dad is who he is.

That would make sense. Big, strong, athletic kid. On a side note, I skated with a kid who has skated quite a bit with Wilkie. From what I hear, Wilkie has an NHL shot right now too. I guess he won the hardest shot competition at the USHL all star skills challenge.

Johnson has a very heavy shot.

Right there with them.....obviously a much higher talent though. Much quicker release. His one timer is phenomenal. He has an NHL shot right now.

I saw the highlights from the USA White vs Sweden game, Boeser has an absolute bomb.

He just scored again. Shocked the Schmaltz-Matthews line isn't doing more, I wonder if they're letting their depth guys play more as the game is getting out of hand. The 10th goal was Boeser from Schmaltz. That sounds nice.

I know right.

You're reaching. The NCAA will not hand out sanctions for not breaking a rule. The NCAA would be forced to hand out sanctions to other schools with no nickname (yes i know there are only a couple and are small schools but the point is the same), the NCAA would set precedent with und. If you simply want a new nickname just say it, others have. The thinking that the big bad NCAA will come down on us when we've already went through the process of removing the nickname and logo are ridiculous. The NCAA would be forced to adopt a rule that every school must have a nickname and that would have to be done very soon.

It wont.

Did they realize we don't have a nickname?
