ChadR Posted June 13 Posted June 13 Did anyone ever confirm the 2nd person Jax decomitted? Katie O’Keefe’s interview on Fargo radio indicated 2 people, 1 was Bumgarner. 1 Quote

Popular Post brianvf Posted June 17 Popular Post Posted June 17 More Laurila: https://www.inforum.com/sports/time-to-create-my-own-path-moorheads-sam-laurila-preps-for-nhl-draft-starting-und-hockey-career Quote Laurila was eligible for the draft last year, but did not get to hear his name called. “I think it was really good for me. Kind of makes you mad, and kind of makes you want to get back to work," Laurila said. And the work has paid off. Laurila is projected to go in the third or fourth round in this year's draft. Quote Regardless of what happens with the draft, Laurila’s next stop is in Grand Forks to join new head coach Dane Jackson at UND. “Talking with Dane and the coaching staff and getting things back on track and just bringing back that old UND culture," Laurila said. "I think we're gonna be really tough to play against next year and the years following... I'm pumped." 5 Quote

brianvf Posted Thursday at 04:09 AM Posted Thursday at 04:09 AM Interested to see how Zakreski's game transfers over to NCAA: https://chl.ca/whl-winterhawks/article/2025-nhl-draft-profile-josh-zakreski/ Quote Winterhawks Head Coach Kyle Gustafson used the left-shot winger in a variety of situations due to his ability to read the play defensively and help shut down opposing teams’ top point producers. His tenacity to win 50-50 pucks, battles along the wall, or chase down a forward on the backcheck, Zakreski possesses a 200-foot game. Zakreski wore a letter for the Winterhawks as an alternate captain due to his leadership qualities, which were often evident on the ice or in the locker room, helping over a dozen rookies find their footing in the WHL. 3 Quote

Just no penalty trouble please and I think he'll be good pretty quickly. 1 1 Quote

Will be fun to see him as a junior and senior 1 Quote
brianvf Posted Saturday at 04:40 AM Posted Saturday at 04:40 AM Nice interview and article about Zellers: https://rinksiderhodeisland.com/2025/06/20/will-zellers-is-a-prospect-to-watch-at-bruins-development-camp/ Quote “His goal-scoring ability is the best I’ve ever been around and I played with Anders Lee here in Green Bay,” said Gamblers coach Patrick McCadden. “It’s uncanny the way he can score. He can just find the hole and put the puck there, It’s pretty special. “I kept waiting for him to hit the wall and he just never did. It was incredible how he continued to score consistently over the course of the season.” Quote A few days after development camp ends on July 3, Zellers will head to North Dakota to begin his freshman year. He’ll be taking an English class and a science class during the summer session. “It’s great how they have you ease into college, the academic part of it. They give you every tool to be a great student,” Zellers said. Quote Zellers is on board with the new staff. “I trust Jacks. He’s a great coach and an even better mentor off the ice. I went (to Grand Forks) a couple of weeks ago just to talk to the new coaches,” he said. 1 Quote
