Here's a picture I dug up of Miles. He should fit in nicely, especially for the Gophers series.

This kids' dad produces tv shows. Could be Brad Miller Time's big break.

There were some rumors floating around the internet that Grimaldi had attended the WHL's Portland Winterhawks training camp. Especially when the Winterhawks didn't want to reveal the name of said player, he was small, and he was lighting it up.

Not Grimaldi though. Grimaldi is a right hand shot, the "mystery player" was a leftie.

did simpson go to one? do players sometimes just go to the camp even if they are committed or doesnt it work that way?

just seems strange how some of these so called Major Junior teams go about their business. i guess at the end of the day it is a business and it shows.

It appears that we have a new recruited player:

Welcome aboard, Miles! With him being on the U17 team, I would guess the earliest that we would see him at UND would be 2012 or 2013.

Glad to see another quality forward but ...

[ticklethetwine]

Glad to see another quality forward but ...

Agreed. That is why I hope we can land Jordan Schmaltz.

[siouxnami]

Koules is the 16-year-old son of Oren Koules, a former part-owner of the Tampa Bay Lightning and the producer of the "Saw" movies and CBS television show "Two and a Half Men."

I expect that Brad Miller Time is about to take a very dark turn...

Mark MacMillan hurt his wrist in the Vees first regular season game. He will be out for a while.

The new U18 team was announced:

http://www.usahockey.com/USANTDP/default.aspx?NAV=AF_01_02&ID=233682

Grimaldi is on there, as is JT Miller, who also visited UND with Rocco.

For those people that want to see a dman recruit or two added, there are only two uncommitted dmen on the roster.

Also on the team is Matt Van Voorhis, who was rumored to be a Sioux fan before committing to DU.

UND plays an exhibition against the U18 team on 12/18. The team plays a pretty good schedule of D1 teams...it will be interesting to see how well Rocco does against them.

grimaldi 2 goals in 4-2 exh win for usa

mile koules 1a in 4-2 loss today

[tnt]

Grimaldi with a goal in a loss tonight. Also saw Gothberg with a 24-save shutout of Chicago and Danny Mattson earlier this week. Colton St. Clair with a goal in each of his two outings this week, and Mattson with 3 assists and 5 shots in Chicago win tonight. Can't wait until the regular season starts.

How did Mattson look?

Does anyone know what is going on with his game. He was so well thought of at Holy Angels then he disappeared as he surprisingly went undrafted in 09 and then again last year as well..

[Big A HG]

Plans are me and my fiancee to attend Green Bay vs. Fargo on Oct 2. I'm pumped, it'll be a little taste of hockey before watching the Manitoba exhibition the following night.

I'm guessing you meant Holy Angels and not St John's . Mattson had a great high school career and is still very talented. I think the Hak and company recognized that he needed to work on a few things in juniors, namely not being shy about going into the corners. My guess is that he'll make big strides this year in Chicago. I'm anxious to see him skating for the Sioux in the fall of 2011.

Any info on why Michael Parks has not played in the last few games for Cedar Rapids?? Is he hurt, injured, or are they just playing new players to make some final cuts?

Read on the Riders board that he got a concussion. No idea if it is true or not.

Thanks, hopefully he will be back on the ice soon.

Add Jordan Schmaltz to the committed list. http://undhockey.areavoices.com/

[nodak hockey fanatic]

For those of you concerned about our blueline in upcoming years... looks like we've got a good start at restocking the cupboards. Schmaltz committed, sounds like a beast, he should fit in just fine.

edit: looks like you clicked yours in before me but a huge pickup worth a double post
