InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 He didn't exactly take over a game at the WJC. You can do it at the college level... at the national stage playing against the best U20 defenders in the world, not so much. Especially if the USA ran everything through him allowing the opposition to key in on just shutting him down. If UND runs into BU in the NCAAs, I'd suggest we do the same. Almost like double teaming a huge WR in football. Quote
yzerman19 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 He didn't exactly take over a game at the WJC. Agree- think about a couple UND players who could really take over a game in college AND in the WJC- two names: Parise and Toews. Playing extremely well at the WJC is the tell as to whether a player can make it happen against the best in the world. Eichell didn't do that. He's a very, very good player...but... Quote

He's a very, very good player...but... ...he can still dominate a college game? You realize you just named off 2 of the best forwards in the NHL, right? I'd be surprised if he's not, at minimum, a top 6 forward when he leaves BU for the show. Quote

I honestly think he was trying to do too much. Additionally, the US team was pretty young. The team parise and Toews played on were not young. Although I was not impressed with how eichel was playing, I could tell he was very very good. He'll be a very good NHL player. Quote
yzerman19 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Just saying if you're in the conversation to go first overall, you should show it at the WJC 1 Quote

MafiaMan Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 So the North Star Challenge is coming up...Bemidji State vs UMD and Mankato vs Minnesota...at least that's what I thought the schedule was. Aren't those the match-ups this year? Quote

bale31 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 You are correct mafiaman. The Mavs take on the gophers in the night game. I, personally, am cheering for a all-WCHA matchup on Saturday night, attendance be damned. Quote

bale31 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 There is no "minnesota rule" for this tourney. 3:00 3rd place. 7:00 championship. Teams don't matter. Quote
