talksalot83 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Welp, I'm ready to move on! How many days until the puck drops? I've got to find the silver lining somewhere even if it's days away. Quote
Frozen4sioux Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 189 I believe.... Will UND be the cheese on top of the NaCHo Conference?... Will Grimaldi figure out scoring and win the hobey?....? Will Angry Hak get to smile?..... Will Dan Hammer learn what the £uck a one timer is?.... Will we lose any to early departures?...... All these questions answered and more ..... Same Sioux time...same Sioux channel (blurry as it is)......... Quote

SiouxFanatic Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I hope Forbort doesn't go. He really stepped up this season. If he stuck around he'd be a huge anchor for us on the blueline. Who will be the incoming freshies? I can already say I think scoring is going to be hard to find...I think a lot of pressure is going to be put on Grimaldi and Mark MacMillan to produce. Hopefully Gothberg gets things going next year though I do tip my hat to Saunders' effort against Yale. Dude is the only reason that kept us in the game. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 This teams strengths will be Zane, Clark, Zane, Clark. 2-1 games will be high scoring. Quote
talksalot83 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 The sooner this season got over the sooner we get hd See! Silver lining. But we still have to listen to Hammer. Correction: mute. Quote
passit_offthegoalie Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 We need guys like Rocco, Parks,the MacMillans, Caggiula, St. Clair, Rodwell, Zane and all the underclassmen to have big offseasons. There is some potential there and it seems that every year somebody takes the opportunity to step into a bigger role. Next year is a wild card to me. Quote
talksalot83 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 So who leaves early? My guess is Forbort. Quote
sioux rube Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 My guess is Forbort. He isn't ready but if anyone goes I'd put my money on him. Quote
SiouxScore Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Tough for me to think about next year right now but it is probably the best way to help move on from this season ending. I think there is a lot more potential for next years team than a lot of others might think especially if nobody leaves early. The only one that I think might leave early is Forbort but I think that would be a big mistake. Another question is how many recruits will we bring in for next fall? Defensemen that could come in are: Troy Stecher, Paul LaDue,Tucker Poolman, and Geoff Crisfield. Forwards that could come in are: Wade Murphy, Luke Johnson, Adam Tambellini, Luke Voltin, and Jack Rowe. Quote
yzerman19 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 I will follow the team, but I won't have very high expectations... Quote
Redneksioux Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 The sooner this season got over the sooner we get hd And the sooner that most everyone outside the region won't be able to see:/ As we know now:/ Quote
Wilbur Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Okay, turn the page, open the door to the new year.... Goaltending: ~Set....But will probably bring in another guy to fill the Maris role. Gosh I'm going to miss Tate. Defense: ~Simpson will see a ton of minutes....a ton. And they've got some skilled guys coming back. This area has to get better. Absolutely has to get better. I think LaDue will impress people next season, I believe he's still on track to come to UND next year. We'll miss that big physical defenseman though. Losing Mac is tough. Offense: ~Rocco needs to score. He's the best player coming back. I think there is some promise with Drake, Mark, St. Clair, Gaarder, Parks, and Wade Murphy is a kid that I think will contribute. Unfortunately Rowney didn't have enough of an impact year to be really missed. Wish I could say differently. Just a guess as to what line combos could look like: Drake-Rocco-Parks Murphy-Mark-Mitch St. Clair-Pattyn-Gaarder Rodwell-Chyzyk-Senkbeil....I dunno..... What we are really going to miss is Corban Knight winning a ton of faceoffs....thats for darn sure. Quote

as15 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Ish that looks ugly. I think Luke Johnson and Adam Tambellini should be immediate contributor's as well next year. Quote
Big A HG Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Well, there's always hope for our under-performing freshmen. Here's what Brad Malone, Evan Trupp, and Matt Frattin's freshman year looked like: Malone: 1g, 2a Frattin: 4g, 11a Trupp: 8g, 5a Quote

Here's what Brad Malone, Evan Trupp, and Matt Frattin's freshman year looked like: Malone: 1g, 2a Frattin: 4g, 11a Trupp: 8g, 5a Four year role players. By the time it got to their senior years, those guys were the best line in college hockey. Think of what Knight and Kristo would have done with Nelson this year? Quote

JermDubs Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 My stab at some lines Luke Johnson- Rocco- Parks Drake- Mark- Tambellini Murphy- st. clair- mitch Rodwell-Pattyn-Gaarder chyzyk-senkbeil-sanderson, etc.. Simpson-Schmaltz LaDue-Stecher Mattson- Panzerella (Poolman?, Thompson?)? Zane Clarke Quote
JermDubs Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 I think Parks, Mark, Drake, and Rocco are all poised to have big years Quote
Wilbur Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Captains next year..... C-Simpson A-Forbort (If back) A-Pattyn A-Rodwell Possibles: Mark, Parks.....ummm....... Quote
