Janatuinen Simonson Olson

Thompson LaDue

Ausmus Stecher

Wolanin/Shaw Poolman

Tomek

Johnson

Looked like he was closer to reaching his potential in the tournament, and you can't have enough upper classmen

You pretty much beat me to what I was going to say.

Last year, Drake went to the Sabres camp and turned some heads.

Since the "Guess the Roster" game is closed since Zane left, I'll put my final guess as to what the roster will look like here:

 

Out (3 defensemen): Mattson, Panzarella, J Schmaltz

In (3 defensemen): Chartrand, Wolanin, Shaw

 

Out (1 goalie): MacIntyre

In (1 goalie): Tomek

 

Out (6 forwards): Pattyn, Gaarder, Parks, MacMillian, O'Donnell, Murphy

In (6 forwards): Gornall, Janatuinen, Gardner, Gersich, Wilkie, Boeser

 

That would make 10 freshmen on a 26 man roster and that matches what Brad Berry said when he said recently in an interview that "38% of the team will be freshmen" as 10/26 is 38.46%.

TECHNICALLY, that would be 39% :D

Ummm no... the .46 rounds up to .5, making 38.5% and the .5 rounds up to the 39%.

I suggest trying your little calculator again. Type in 38.46, and set the parameter to round to the nearest whole number. The answer is 38, not 39. Rounding is not a two step process. It is a one step process. You do not round from hundredths to tenths, and then tenths to the whole number. You go directly from hundredths to the whole number. 0.49 and down rounds to zero while .50 and up rounds to 1.0.

Great ... another "majority" versus "plurality" discussion.  :crazy:

 

And are you going to tell Brad Berry he's wrong? Let me know how that works out for you. ;)

Turn down the salty meter, bub. I was just messing around.

 

Not the way I was taught how to do this... but alas... good thing I don't work with numbers. Wait... I do. Oh well... not my money.

That's okay. I am an engineer (Dilbert and I are best friends). We engineers can't help ourselves. It is surprising how many on this board are engineers.

That reminds me of a time we did rounding in elementary class. Must a been "round down" day. I was short some money that day at the convenience store for some pop and candy.

Lmao, was thinking the same thing! Must be the off season...

There are quite a few on the board. A number of years ago we organized an "unofficial" hockey tailgating party by the old Ralph (campus police sat in a car out on the street and watched us closely). Somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 of those that showed up were engineers. A number of people on this board I know are engineers.

So a freshman coming with zero collegiate goals will replace Murphy on the roster..........who also had zero collegiate goals.  

 

Don't see what all the fuss is about here by some with his departure.
