Guys like that can lift a team. Boeser was the last guy to really do it, and he was a freshman (hurt sophomore year). Berry hasn’t recruited that top end talent that we’ve been accustomed to, and it’s showing. You obviously have a very keen eye for evaluating and grading high end hockey talent. For those of us who don’t have that skill could you detail the shortcomings of Swanson, Strathmann, Livanavage and Perron? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJS Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Wow! Berry and staff catching fire! Emerson is tied 6th in points in USHL as a late ‘03. Great get! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianvf Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 He's currently 11-13--24 in 20 games played for the Steel. Would guess he'd be joining the team next season along with Perron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Emerson would be the second oldest forward in the pipeline (Croal). Fall 2023 would be a safe guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be my guess too. Roster Definitely gone: F(2) - Hain, Senden Potentially gone: F(3) - Albrecht (5th year option), Gaber (free agent signing), Caulfield (5th year option) Recruits F(3) - Croal, Perron, Emerson If Gaber and one 5th year guy returns (or another recruit or portal guy), that would work out for forward numbers.

Make it clear the crease is open to first one to 0.900. <-- Yeah, just even that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if we got .900 save % each game, we’d probably have like 3-4+ more wins this season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 3 goalies in the leave by GAA are all uncommitted. They’re all in the top 4 for save % too. Just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
