That may have been the worst de-commit I have ever seen, and it happened to a guy who rarely loses players. One day after the rumors came out this kid swore up and down they were false and that he was 100% going to BC. He even went to orientation, only to back out a week later. Anyone see Gaudreau's twitter post? You were right Goon.

Was there a deadline on when we had to implement a new one? Many "real" fans just want the process to be well thought out, or we'll end up with some absolutely stupid nickname.

You're out smarting him

That sucks for college hockey. Looks like Jerry isn't invincible.

I get that they can force us to change our name, but what are we currently doing wrong? Nothing.

I gotcha.

What??? The NCAA can't do anything.

I do like that top line however I worry about that second from an experience standpoint. Doesn't hurt to try it out though, you are correct there is a lot of raw talent. I really like that third. I would keep Mattson with Ladue and try Thompson with schmaltz. I thought Thompson got so good by the end of the year and has good size and great skating ability. I would also be very shocked if poolman doesn't work his way into the lineup on day 1. He and Ladue are very similar.

What is wrong with that? Pretty sure he wad trying to say don't pick a dumb name....dont rush into the decision.

Red River High School already has that logo. Personally if they come up with something new it better be just as good as what we had, or better. Not something recycled from a different school.

Exactly. The community is not ready for a new nickname, therefore they should go about finding a new one very carefully and well thought out. Gershman's article was spot on.

I wish the kid the best. He needed to work on his O game, that wasn't going to happen at the college level...at least not at the speed he wanted to develop. We'll find someone else to do what he would have done for UND

I don't think Schmaltz played against the Czechs today. Curious what's going on. He had 2 assists the last time he played.

Does anyone know if Schmaltz is dressing against the Czechs today? I see he was scratched against the Finns. Barring injury, I'm slightly shocked he was chosen to be sat.

Haha, I felt the exact same way

Very true. I passed some tweets (of him potentially leaving) to one of my buddies....he shot some back, from pretty reliable sources, that he is 100% BC. But the fact there are all these rumors leads one to believe something has happened.

Jerry is a legend....he doesn't lose guys. I thought Milano may be bolting BC.

http://www.gopherspo.../100305aaa.html Preseason polls are obviously terrible however the USA today rankings, and USCHO rankings for that matter, are beyond terrible. How is Miami not higher in either poll? They are loaded up front. They had an odd year last year but I, for one, feel they will bounce back strong. Also, why is Denver ranked so high. They are a good team, definitely, but favorites to be a 1-2 in the country good. Might be a stretch. Biasedly I suppose, UND should be ranked better than Denver. Also CC being ranked ahead of UND, they were beyond terrible last year and lost arguably their best player. We'll let the season play out I guess I have high hopes for this team.

It is cherry-picking defintely, however for once I agree with you. I like the Oilers. If it makes sense for Edm it makes sense for us.
