COMMITTED UND Recruits

Christian Wolanin (Muskegon) has committed to UND

I see his father is former NHL'er Craig Wolanin.   Hopefully he follows Dillon Simpson as someone whose dad played in the NHL and chose the college route, instead of guys like Matteau and Lemieux.  Of course Simpson's dad played college hockey.  Looks like Craig Wolanin played with Kitchener.

I think it is more designed to give them more depth and options whether guys leave early or not.

Personally I would like to see Evers play another year of juniors outside of the USA team maybe develop some sort of offensive game. He is a 97 so it totally wouldn't be out of the question.

I think this addition gives them the flexibility to do that with him or Shaw or maybe even both if Ladue doesn't leave early.

I think that would maybe be ideal. Both are great players but if there fine with waiting they both seem like kids that would wait a year.

Wolanin is already 19 this year, if he was planning on going to the chl he would already be there.

Yeah, I see he was drafted years ago in the latter rounds, so the fact he isn't playing there suggests he wants the college route.

I would guess this is more of a Panzarella replacement than anything else. Just a lower scholarship d-men to cover against potential early departures. It wouldn't surprise me if we are still after another top notch D recruit that could possible come in next year.

I'm thinking that wolanin kid would be a bigger recruit than say chartrand. Based on the production (and age) wolanin may be more talented. The USHL is a far better league than the SJHL.

One I think a lot of people figured would happen but were just waiting for when he would announce it. Wouldn't be surprised if a couple of EGF teammates/former teammates end up joining him at UND.

Great! I was waiting on this.  I hope he plays a few years in the USHL to get accustomed to the pace.  Looks as though he is currently struggling but a lot of players do.  It's a great league.
