Stoney? Far from hall of fame when I hung out there.

Ouch! I was never able to get to the 75% percent vote mark to get in. Got to 72% only :D. Honorable mention. Curious to hear your thoughts on who'd be HOF, though hahaha

Thanks buddy.... I did my best

What list you talking about?

Here's what Schloss has about the newest rankings. Looks like James could go third round, maybe second. I don't mind this class especially Strinden being a late riser.

You would have had the necessary votes, but for the whole PEDs allegations.

…and the fact a some of these guys will probably play another year of juniors makes it more likely that they will transition better to college hockey.

You said you were going to come up with a list that we have beaten blue bloods out in recruits

Reminder that help is on the way. All 5 Forwards that signed their NLI continue to impress. McLaughlin has appeared to break into the next tier. 17 points in his last 10 games. Tied for 6th in overall points in the USHL.

Also: Watching this current team struggle, they need all 5 next year. Need to push out 2 forwards w/ eligibility remaining on the current roster.

Don’t they all impress before they come here? And then they get in to berry system and can’t score

I would say top to bottom this is a better forward class than normal. 
 

Edit: The age of the forwards also leads me to be more optimistic. Zero ‘01s (age out group). One ‘02 (summer DOB). Three ‘03s, one ‘04. It’s a young group that’s putting up points.

Do you think we will push out a couple forwards and if so who would those be?

We certainly need to add some firepower this years team is certainly lacking.

Whatever happened to Katie O’keefe as far as working the broadcast. I know it’s been a few years but she all of sudden just stopped.

Yes. The new transfer rule helps out here, because it opens more players up to the possibility since nobody has to sit out. To me the most obvious player is Ness. He fits the bill. Two years in the system and things are not clicking. Change of scenery would be best for both parties. This is where things will get interesting and I think the way the rest of the year plays out will determine if Berry is almost forced to really shake things up. Budy seems like the next logical choice. He's not a Top 6 Forward (which was what he was brought in to be). Third, Albrecht. He was brought in kind of that emergency forward role. To me local wins out, Montgomery can backfill that roll. You can't have two "emergency" forwards on a team. 

We discussed this a few weeks ago, it's harsh. Wish it worked out, but if Berry is going to do what's best for the team, Ness / Budy / Albrecht would hit the transfer portal at the end of the year. I realize that not everything is based on points (those 3 have 3 combined points 44 combined games this year), but they aren't defensive specialists either. This would allow the 5 Forwards that signed NLI's to come in / plus an additional spot for a transfer. 

The forward group at the bottom is a complete mess this year.

Was told her interviews were halted due to COVID purposes. Guessing she won't be back, since Alex can handle from up top.

Wonder if she got to old

so if a FEMALE reporter gets "too old" does that mean she isn't as "HOT" as you wished she was to be asking questions of the athletes you're asking questions of?    Like a lot of female news anchors who get "too old" like Robin Huebner?   Lift your knuckles off the ground GFH - blow on them - maybe they'll heal.  (Probably not)  What century are you living in dude?   Katie had job and family considerations and the Covid thing made it so complicated on the UND end it just made sense NOT to have a rinkside reporter the last couple years.  Midco still has covid restrictions limiting their rinkside camera operations - never mind a rinkside reporter.  I thought you were the ALL KNOWING ALL SEEING genius of SS - guess NOT!

Recruiting has become a complete mess.  It is now all about finding the 4 year role player instead of going after the best.
