geaux_sioux Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Hopefully Tucker can get his shoulder right and have a long successful career in the NHL. I'm excited to see what he can do with the big boys. Maybe some day he can become an Olympian. Too soon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct...3 years around that dollar figure. However, I think Tucker's age played into this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsioux Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 2 hours ago, Irish said: I have to admit I am really not used to rebuilding seasons - I have said before (to much criticism) that I thought we had a couple of misfire recruiting years (stars aside). For example, what if instead of Wilke we got another forward with comparable scoring stats and potential who improved in college and became a stud? Whole new ballgame. I wouldn't give up on Wilkie just yet. We have had a number of players over the years that all of a sudden blossomed in their last year or 2. Everybody was all over O'Donnell his first couple of years and he was a pretty important part of the team at the end. There are others. I would not be surprised to see Wilkie become a solid contributor. I also think that Januatuinen and Hoff have very nice careers at UND. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoneySIOUX Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Article on Jost from the Denver Post: http://www.denverpost.com/2017/03/30/tyson-jost-joins-avalanche/ “It was a tough decision,” he said. “Obviously, North Dakota was great to me and I have the utmost respect for that program and everything they’ve done for me. At the end of the day, I just thought I wanted to take that next step and I wanted the challenge. I wanted to take that risk. . . I’ve dreamed about this my while life, playing in the NHL and it was right there in front of me. I thought why not take it, this was my dream.” The Fighting Hawks lost 4-3 in double overtime to Boston University in the first round of the NCAA West Regional last Friday. Asked what happened after that, leading to his signing, Jost said, “There were a lot of little things that went into it. Obviously, I spent a lot of time with my family and my agent (J.P. Barry), just talking over the decision, obviously along with the Avs organization too. I just thought it was best if I came up here and sign that contract.” Did the Avs aggressively approach him or did he let them know he was ready to sign? “It was kind of mutual,” Jost said. “They respected that I loved my time at UND and they knew I was going to make the right decision and obviously they went over the pros and cons. Joe (Sakic) and I had a really good talk and they were really respectful about my decision They gave me time and they gave me space and they were really professional and good about it. Hard to argue with a kid about his dream, IMO. Good luck, Josty. I'll definitely be rooting for ya. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
