Perron didn't make USHL 1st, 2nd, or 3rd all USHL team. 

What am I missing here. How does that happen?

There are so many good forwards in the USHL. That being said, his numbers--Emerson's too--are comparable to the forwards who were chosen. My hunch is that Perron and Emerson were discounted in light of three other Chicago forwards--Celebrini, Moldenhauer, and Harvey--all making All-USHL teams.

I'm good with Pilgrim doing the before and after thing. Let the kid be a kid when he's still in HS if that's his choice.

It'll be interesting to see how his numbers fare without Shaugabay on his line

Mac Swanson scored his first USHL playoff goal last night although the Fargo Force lost to the Lincoln Stars 4-3.

Jayden Perron scored his fourth USHL playoff goal last night for Chicago as the Steel lost to the Youngstown Phantoms 4-1. Jake Livanavage had one of the assists on Perron's goal.

Perron looks very Blake-like on this play...spins away from the defender near the blue line, then weaves around two more defenders before finding Emerson camped out in front for the tap-in goal.
Emerson from Perron...hopefully we see that combo on the stat sheet a few times next season.

Let’s go! Strathmann with a goal in the game as well.

He does, but boy, he won't find that kind of time and space that close in against most NCAA teams.

Unless you see Perron consistently, don’t know how you can make that determination.  Also, to me grit means playing well at both ends of the ice, and judging by the plus/minus, Blake has work to do on that part of his game before he is ready to get to the next level.  Thankfully, both of them are very young and it is common to have some parts of their game to work on when they come in so young. That is what is so exciting about both players, is that they have plenty of room for growth, and from their starting point that bodes very well.

It will be great to see him develop in the NCAA.  Logical next step for him.

We wouldn’t know.
The good thing is these young guys have talent, and what seems to be a great passion for the game, a great work ethic and the potential to be outstanding college players.

Mac Swanson with an unassisted goal in Fargo's playoff game which is nearing the end of the second period.

UND commits in USHL playoff games tonight...

In Youngstown's 4-1 win over Chicago, Michael Emerson had a goal for Chicago and Andrew Strathmann had an assist for Youngstown. Also Jayden Perron (CHI) had a roughing penalty. Don't mess with Jayden.

In Fargo's 8-4 win over Lincoln, Mac Swanson had a goal and two assists.

Yep, most of the news has been focused on Perron but Strathmann and Swanson playing really well right now from a production standpoint. Great to see. 
 

Swanson having a super good year.

They’re going with grindahs.    Elite picks have gotten them nothing

You need to have a mixture of both to win at a high level. Especially if you want to finish the job in April.
