A LOT of high end potential in that one.  I think he may be in for a breakout season.

Was there any doubt about him lol

Appreciate the tweet from Trevor, but was anyone actually concerned he was leaving? Barring a significant jump in productivity and another championship next year, I kind of see Olson as a 4 year player. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see Trevor benefiting from leaving early, even next year.

Trevor is just having fun. That's all. Must sense the tension in the fanbase about the other unknowns and is trying to lighten the mood.

Didn't Maris pull this a few years back?

So did Gaarder and Pattyn.

Not everyone is a draft pick and this is fun to see that they can help keep the room going.

Thanks for all your efforts this year.  However took a terrible penalty at the end of the game that could have cost us the game against Denver.  Hopefully he will score a goal next year and break the ice.

Yeah, didn't think that through, but they would bring the jam!  

I'm hopeful that they can stick the puck on the roof of the goal mouth.

I'll let myself out.

Does this mean that Nick is staying another year?

Ok, that's what I was wondering. I remember a few others did that in the past. Regardless, glad to have him back. One of those guys whose contributions doesn't always show up on the Stat sheet but still a solid part of the team.

Maybe just The Money Line

Damn that Yost Schamltz Boesser line could be lethal.  Is it hockey season yet?

Love Olson as a depth player.  He plays hard.  Good physical presence.

I don't think this would happen at many other schools. The culture and family this program has developed is truly unmatched. Speaker volumes about the coaches we have had, the players they recruit, and how they go about their business. Go Sioux! Could not be more proud to be a part of the family.

I think Olson is just making fun of Brock there. Stech retweeted both, so maybe a change of heart?

[yzerman19]

Imagine...

Schmaltz with Jost and Boeser

Johnson with Pogo and Gardner

Simo with Olson and 

Gersich with Wilkie and JJ

Poolman with Ausmus

Wolanin with Thompson

Shaw with

 

Any ideas on who will fill it in???

You mean where grandma keeps the peanut butter? 

[yzerman19]

Perhaps the greatest thing about the family is that guys buy into roles...we not only get blue chippers, but we get 3rd, 4th, 5th rounders and late bloomers who understand the way the game is at the next level and buy into the role.  This is a huge difference in program and coaching vs some other elite programs (ehhem Gophers).  Guys who scored 30 goals in junior realize they aren't the best at this next level and buy into the program and the willingness to do the little things to win, and at the same time understand that everybody in the show was a point per game at major junior or college, including the scratches.  Think about Pogo.  The kid is a beast, and a draft pick, but he knows the game he needs to play to help the team and at the same time make himself an NHL ready player by banging and playing puck possession.  I love this program.

[Godsmack]

Would it be x-rated to call them "The Money Shot"?

You mean a first rounder who back checks as hard as somebody who is playing for their job every night?

Or a first rounder who lays out on the blue line to just barely hold the zone to keep the offensive pressure alive?  (I can't remember what game this happened but I was blown away when I saw Boeser do this.)

Those are the kinds of guys you want playing for you team.  And those are the guys I'm so happy to watch play every week.

Stecher may as well say he's gone and will sign on Wednesday instead of making a decision on that day. I can't handle it.
