bigskyvikes Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Not a big fan of the article about Boeser calling Stetcher to ask him how it is in Vancouver. I know he's leaving but I hope he is not already mentally gone! http://theprovince.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/ben-kuzma-stecher-believes-boesers-scoring-touch-will-light-up-canucks-future 2 Quote

I'm sure all players have been keeping in touch from last year's team. He could just pick up the phone this Saturday night if und were to miss the NCAAs. I don't think, like many others, that his two way game is ready. 2 Quote

I mean there was another article out of Vancouver earlier this week that made it sound like Boeser was bailing on the rest of the season to sign there this week. I know when Brock is asked he is pretty non-committal. 1 Quote
UNDMOORHEAD Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Don't get me wrong, Brock is elite. He was on a pretty good line last year with a four year guy (whose pretty good) and second year guy (first round pick) who had made great strides from year one to year two. They helped cover some of the holes in his game and also opened up a lot of space for him to operate. I think his second year here may have been a harder transition then his first year because of that. Not to mention the D-corps we had last year. With a young team and no Drake and Nick to lean on he was easy for opposing teams to focus on. I don't think it would hurt his development to stay one more year, but if he leaves you can't blame him. Most first round picks don't stick around more than two years and that's all I expect when we get kids like him. In my opinion if you get a first round guy to stay longer then two years with all the pressure they're under from the team that drafted them that's pretty damn good. 1 Quote
nodakgirl93 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 You have to add in the school part of it. Im sure it's not their favorite thing ha Quote
fightingsioux08 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Since Vancouver said that they will play him in the nhl this year once unds season is over, I don't blame him for going 2 Quote
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 When he announced he would be back for his sophomore season that was pretty much an assurance of his timeline. Feels like just yesterday he committed to UND. Time flies... Quote
yzerman19 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 The minute you step foot on NHL ice, you start earning credit against your rookie deal and towards free agency. If he can skate in one game with Vancouver, it's ano brainer for him 2 Quote
Frozen4sioux Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I heard a Story from a reliable source that he had decided to comeback as all parties felt this year as a lost year of development. EVERYthing I believe and have read makes me doubt this......but the guy who relayed it is very creditable and the source was very very very close to Brock so who knows....I still think it's 95% he gone Quote

Frankly, he hasn't dominated college games like a guy ready for the NHL. Sure, injuries. But, a lot of his season last year was folks focusing in Caggiula and Schmaltz. Now that he's the focus he is being neutralized. His best games lately are when he's not on the top line (and facing the other team's top line). Quote

It seems odd that they would try and push him to come immediately after the season and use even one game to knock a year off his deal unless it seemed as though he might actually come back. How difficult this year was for him, it might make him reconsider his readiness as well. I've always felt like Jost would stay two years, you figure in that outside Brock and Tyson, the only true chance of losing another player is Tucker, they might be eyeing getting another title next season, and with that Brock would go down as a UND God.

brianvf Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Pogo and Gersich next year could be very fun to watch. Quote

I believe Wolanin received a deal last year...I'm sure he'll receive one this year as well. Hopefully he doesn't sign. Many people like to rag on him a bit but his numbers (for a soph) don't lie. He's good. 3 Quote

However, he needs to work on his defensive shortcomings to become elite. Quote
