The big thing folks kind of miss on (as I’ve said a few times) is who’s he going to play with. $ talks, but linemates matter too. And yes, I realize Zellers is coming in and has received a ton of attention recently (all deserved)…..but he’ll be a freshman. Michigan has, at the very least, Michael Hage. They’re probably bringing in more too I’m assuming.

It was 1-2 articles. Not sure how close we actually were. We still don’t know McKenna will go to Michigan for sure. But I’d put it add +90%. I’m sure another program or two will jump in on the bidding war.

His point is valid however. McKenna isn’t coming to UND.

Neutral-zone is a terrible ranking site…even when we’re way up there it’s super flawed. Quantity is heavily weighted.

I’m not saying they will, I’m saying they should/need to. 1st-3rd rd talent. Someone highly offensive.

We have a ton of guys who could fill a “depth role” honestly. We need to either flip someone late or add some stud out of CHL. We need a stud.

Oh I agree about PP.

Well you see, there’s this thing called development. A player has 4 years to play. Typically, players get better and better from year to year. Other times it can take 2-3 years to figure out the level. Sometimes, guys figure it out right away. I think the point (with some posters) is that he’s only just entering his upperclassmen years. It’s still early and his numbers are just avg…not awful. You clearly never played…a$$ hat post.

Yes, both are facts. No blue chip, but puck preps does have him as a 5 star. Should be a decent college player.

5 star

Clarke Caswell to DU. Seems like a really solid get…solid numbers. Captain

He was so good last year. A little dinged up at the end of the season. But overall, he was one of the very best college players I witnessed last year. Again, those players move on.

I hope not. He was not a bad goalie. This transfer environment is tough though. An underclassmen calling it quits for putting up avg numbers. Let’s go Hobie, time to shine!

He was ready.

He’s from Edina….it’ll be like Notre Dame, St Thomas etc.

A lot better?

We need to sign his brother.

CAA runs the hockey world behind the scenes.

Haha yep I was just opening the conversation. The issue is that Michael Hage is at Michigan. Probably a more attractive line mate from a production standpoint.

Ok ok, that could work. James has never been overly offensive (will most likely look to carve out an energy role/pk role at the next level) but maybe has a big senior year? Zellers is nice. Maybe Swanson takes off? One of those portal guys could take a big jump playing a support role with a superstar.

Who’s he going to play with? From a selling standpoint. How is Bryn going to sell who he is playing with? Because Michigan will match $4$.

Gordon to UND as expected.

James Scantlebury signed a tender with Chicago (ushl)…interesting as he’s Canadian. He used to follow Und…doesn’t anymore for what that’s worth. High end Canadian kid.

Agreed
