UND99 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I don't know much about this new recruit Austin Poganski. Is this a good pickup? Yes, a very good recruit. 9th rated forward at last summer's U-16 Player Dev. Camp by USHR: We did not have a ton of prior knowledge of the St. Cloud Cathedral forward, but he really jumped out at us. A tall, lanky winger with great legs and an explosive first step, we are told that the NTDP is considering him for the final forward spot on the U17 Team. Was named to the Five Nations U17 team. A top uncommitted college prospect who is only going to get better as he fills out. Quote
MNState0fHockey Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Everything I had seen seemed to point him to the Gophers, so I'm pleasantly surprised to see this. I'm thinking he'll come in 2014? I'm sure the Lemieux de-committ opened up a spot in that class. Gophers offered him, but I think most people thought he'd choose SCSU. Good get for UND. Kid is a good player. Quote
UND99 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Gophers offered him, but I think most people thought he'd choose SCSU. Good get for UND. Kid is a good player. Obviously from St. Cloud, plus his father is an alum of SCSU. Quote
MNState0fHockey Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Obviously from St. Cloud, plus his father is an alum of SCSU. Just read Hammy said he heard he didn't want to go to SCSU, so maybe I was wrong. Either way, good get for you guys. Congrats. Quote
MissSioux85 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 St. Cloud Times article on Poganski commitment Ever since he played for the Junior Sioux as a kid, Austin Poganski always had it in the back of his mind that he would play hockey for the University of North Dakota one day. āIām super excited,ā Poganski said. āIām super pumped. Poganski said he chose UND over Minnesota and St. Cloud State. He said he ultimately was sold on the Grand Forks, N.D., school after attending a UND game at the Ralph Englestad Arena. āWith the fans and everything, it felt like a really good place to play,ā Poganski said. āIt felt like home.ā Quote
siouxforce19 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Gophers offered him, but I think most people thought he'd choose SCSU. Good get for UND. Kid is a good player. I had heard he wanted to go to a bigger name program, so I didn't think SCSU was the end game for him. Quote
UND99 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Just read Hammy said he heard he didn't want to go to SCSU, so maybe I was wrong. Either way, good get for you guys. Congrats. Additionally, it's nice to get another of the local/regional kids (Poolman, Johnson, Thompson, LaDue, etc., and now Poganski) versus the guys UND has had de-commit recently, i.e. Matteau, Koules, Lemieux, Miller. 2 Quote
MNState0fHockey Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I had heard he wanted to go to a bigger name program, so I didn't think SCSU was the end game for him. Yeah, I think Hammy heard the same things. Quote
J.B. Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Additionally, it's nice to get another of the local/regional kids (Poolman, Johnson, Thompson, LaDue, etc., and now Poganski) versus the guys UND has had de-commit recently, i.e. Matteau, Koules, Lemieux, Miller. Very good point. Quote
Siouxhockey1978 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Love it...Had a offer from the U and not thanks Sioux is where i will be going....SCORE Quote

Are there any kids in EGF right now that are being recruited? I was at the game where they slaughtered Central and noticed coaches Poolman Eades and Jackson at the game. I know they have the younger Ausmus and some coaches sons on the team, also the FR Tweten looked pretty good against a garbage Central team. Quote

Forgot TYLER PALMISCNO was coaching at egf http://www.mnhockeyhub.com/page/show/552527?subseason=79765 Quote

Forgot TYLER PALMISCNO was coaching at egf http://www.mnhockeyh...subseason=79765 Tanner Tweten is someone to keep an eye on. Unreal first step, great speed, and tenacious. Only a freshman and listed at 6'2". Also Eddie Eades is a beast. Quote
UND99 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Tanner Tweten is someone to keep an eye on. Unreal first step, great speed, and tenacious. Only a freshman and listed at 6'2". Also Eddie Eades is a beast. Yes, EGF has several players w/alot of potential. As geaux_sioux & Schlossman have mentioned, FR Tanner Tweten is one to keep an eye on. SO Dixon Bowen is VERY intriguing, along with Colton Poolman & Eddie E... Also for the GF HS crowd: I'm in FGO, saw RR's Jacob Benson against Fargo Davies and wasn't overly impressed (though I came in with high expectations for him). How's he been this year? Quote
scpa0305 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 And our favorite JT Miller, he now plays in the AHL for the Connecticut Whale. In 14 games he has 2 goals and 4 assists and is a -1. He has 6 PIM. http://www.ctwhale.com/team/player-stats It's just interesting to see how these guys are doing even though they bailed on us. This may run some people wrong but he has actually stepped it up over the past month. He actually should be still playing in the OHL but decided to play up. Quote
Ray77 Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 I live in Sartell (just north of St Cloud) from what I have heard from coaches in the area this kid is the real deal. A better player and more potential than nate schmidt when he was at Cathedral. Sounds like he is a huge get for the staff. People here thought for sure he would end up with the goofs Shouldn't you be "Sartell Sioux" then instead of "Brainerd Sioux"?! Quote
AZSIOUX Posted December 20, 2012 Author Posted December 20, 2012 @SchlossmanGF: Future UND teammates Chris Wilkie and Austin Poganski will play together at the World Under-17 Challenge later this month. Quote

siouxczech29 Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 OMG! Didn't think we'd land him...I think my jaw hit the floor when I read that! I've been having a lot of fun with my co-workers here in St. Clown about the Poganski commit, now this...spectacular Quote
