AJS Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 One thing that has really stuck out this year when following the potential recruiting class is all of their teams really struggle to score. I've been a little surprised especially in the BCHL at the pretty modest scoring numbers of Rizzo and Bowen, but when you look into it. Rizzo - 6G 11A - 17 points (17 GP): Leads the team at a PPG, the 2nd highest is .81 PPG Bowen - 8G 17A - 25 points (25 GP): Leads the team at a PPG, the 2nd highest is .91 PPG If you look at the league, a PPG puts you around 20th in that category. The BCHL isn't really the high scoring league we all remember. Rizzo / Bowen are holding their own right now on their respective teams. Hopefully we'll see a slight uptick in scoring the rest of the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don’t see the BCHL as a high scoring league, but it’s definitely an older league. Only 2 02’s in the top 20 of scoring. Hopefully both Bowen and Rizzo (and Budy) will make Canada West for the World Junior A Challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaber is pretty high in goal scoring in the USHL, but doesn't have many assists, so he isn't high in overall scoring. Sometimes secondary assists are meaningless, but on high scoring teams there are probably going to be a lot of assists out there that might fall under the meaningless category. That is going to be the case in a lot of circumstances, but it is another reason that stats don't always tell the story of a player. It could work the other way though, if a team is scoring tons, and you are the only player that doesn't benefit from that, it could possibly say something.

SiouxFan100 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 A 16 year old changes a commitment. Such is the state of college hockey recruiting. Out of control. Kinda ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Arena Man Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I happen to know the Hedquist family very well as they skated in the rink that I oversaw before my retiring. Looking forward to seeing him play for UND in the future. Maybe I will finally see more fans rooting for UND in the Windom Area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep practicing with some of the best high school players around and be in great shape and rested come Jan 28? Thats what I'd do, that will come fast kinda like a minorish injury setback and recovery time frame really. It is the bulk of the game schedule 17 games from now to then, but then back for 7 and the tournements. These kids play plenty of games spring summer and fall, sucks to miss them but who knows, may even change on appeal. Thats assuming he is able to participate in practices I guess. Especially withbhighly talented teammates, development happens in practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go play in the ushl (or NAHL) for a bit (if allowed). If not and he wants to play high school, play JV. Only options really...other than Tier 1. on a side note this is all a joke conserving what Motzco and Langenbrunner did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
