That's why COL pushed to get Jost. But Nick after one year at UND would not be the same Nick in CHI as he is now. Jost would have benefitted from year 2 at UND. 7 Quote

The NHL is changing where younger players are thriving. Teams are more willing to let the kids play, thus signing them early. Hak always had highenders coming in every year, from a recruiting perspective so his rebuilding years were slightly masked. The NHL continues to trend "soft". This will continue......sadly. 1 Quote

His point (I believe) was that Jost should have came back for another year (where I dont disagree). My point was that Jost was better as a frosh (thus making him closer to NHL ready than Schmaltz).

Great young man that will be missed! Best wishes on your NHL career--- Yost (great Norwegian nickname bestowed on him.) Belfour played at UND in 97? Quote

My point was that Jost was better as a frosh (thus making him closer to NHL ready than Schmaltz). My point is Nick spends 90% of his first pro year in the A if he leaves after his Fr. year. Jost, I'm sure, was promised the Golden Goose plus COL is so bad. Quote
TNF Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 With Cam coming back Tomek (and Philly who drafted him high for a goalie) are in an interesting position. I would assume he gets a little more playing time next year if he stays but he wouldn't be the full time goalie until his senior year assuming he beats out the youngsters. But if he jumps to another NCAA team he has to sit out a year. With very limited NCAA experience I don't see him in the AHL at this point so signing becomes less appealing. I'm intrigued how this will play out. Quote

A second year rebuilding for Berry after first year winning natty with Hak's players. Both real good coaches though so no complaints here in that arena. 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. Quote

Philly is loaded with goalies in the system. 1 Quote

yzerman19 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Studs who de-committed over the last 4 years: JT Miller (superstar), Matteau (has seen time in NHL), Gropp (been a stud finisher in the WHL)- interesting thing on him is that he got released back to WHL as an overage after a poor showing at Rangers camp, UND would've made him better. 1 Quote

Can include Lemiuex in this too. And according to Adam Wodon of CHN, Seth Jones! Dude made a real fool of himself refusing to admit he was wrong about Jones commiting and decommiting from UND. Quote

ringneck28 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 This one we all were expecting. Now we have to see if there are any surprise signings. Wolanin, Gersich, Poganski? Quote
