Who knows though... With these high-end guys you just have to take it a year at a time and enjoy every year that you do get out of them. That's what impressed me the most about Toews' time at UND. Toews was still only 18 when he played his last game for the Sioux. Quote

UND gets that extra year from our first rounders. Gophers have been hit hard by players leaving after one year or so. They've been doing better as of late in retaining their picks for an extra year or two. Gopher players leaving after one year Phil Kessel (2005) Erik Johnson (2006) Jim OBrien (2007) Kyle Okposo (2006, Part of 2007) Nick Leddy (2009) Quote

Might be a bad example as he left to play major juniors for 2 years before going pro. UofM still claim him as a former player who plays in the NHL. It does still show the struggle to keep the player in your program. UND has had this problem, as any top end program will. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=97817 Quote

He was the winning goalie in the final of the Columbus's 3v3 prospect tournament at the end of development camp. (He is committed to UND, playing for Omaha this year and coming to town next . . . maybe) Quote

Frozen4sioux Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 If Tomek is around and Thome makes it here... When was the last time UND had 2 drafted goalies at the same time. Quote
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Karki has a good chance to be drafted as well. Quote
tho0505 Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 As was pointed by a poster on Brad's blog, Christian Cakebread is no longer committed to UND. Not surprised by this. http://www.vernonmorningstar.com/breaking_news/382548041.html Quote

I wonder if we cut him lose or if he didn't want to come? You would think after winning the NC we would get some recruiting successes. Waiting to hear of some good recruiting pickups and not defections. Quote

Seemed to have some off ice issues which caused him to not put a whole lot of focus into his play, ie. a girl. Sounded like the Force shipped him away from her to get his focus back on hockey and his career. If he comes back here, all that would be lost again. Quote

A lot of that ^^ plus John Marks turned out to be a bad match for him as a coach. 16 yo Cakebread was referred to as "best hands on a 16 yo I've ever seen" by Hakstal. 18 yo Cakebread was cut by the Force and ended up with the Vipers.

Waiting to hear of some good recruiting pickups and not defections. His production has leveled off, so no surprised that UND wanted to keep him another year in juniors. We saw the same thing happen with Danny Mattson (he later went to Bemijidi). We have been winning the recruiting battles and I would expect to land one or two high end names early next year. Quote
fargosioux Posted July 14, 2016 Posted July 14, 2016 From Brad: UND commit Gavin Hain, Moorhead D Ethan Frisch named to U17 Five Nations roster. Will play in Texas next month. Quote
