SiouxScore Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 No inside info on this but I think there might be a few guys that may look at transferring this offseason like Murphy did to get some playing time and just get a fresh start. Recruit wise I think Mismash, Jones, Adams, Kawaguchi, and Mattson are ready to come in. You may not need all of them depending on how many guys sign or if you get some transfers and if you don't I think it is most likely Mattson would play another year in the USHL. With the defensemen you have Bast, Rieger, and Kiersted who are all probably ready but if you only lose Poolman early I'm not sure you would want to bring in all 3. Kiersted might be the most likely to play another year in the USHL as he is the youngest and has only played in 23 games this year as I believed he was injured around the end of December and not sure what the injury is or if he can return in these last couple weeks of the USHL season.

I could see Wilkie pulling a Murphy but that's it. Gornall proved he can play. No one else seem to fit the possible transfer route IMO. 1 Quote

Godsmack Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Who do we play in non-conference next season? Quote

Heard we open in Alaska and Union at home I believe (but not sure if I mixed up a future season) edit: Checked Schlossman's blog and all the above plus our other series is St Lawrence. 1 Quote

The Sicatoka Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Historically, sophomores with a low career minutes total don't return. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Now to the forwards, based on yesterday I think 9 and 27 are going to make misery for a lot of folks for a few seasons. 2 Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 My first hand observation yesterday was that UND may have been the smallest team in Fargo. Ohio State has a couple big guys, BU is big, and UMD is mammoth. Yeah, Tucker Poolman was out, but those teams were just bigger. Is there anything UND can add this off-season to put some size back into the line-up? 1 Quote

siouxfaninseattle Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 5 hours ago, The Sicatoka said: We only age out two seniors (Ausmus and Hrynkiw). I'm strictly looking at DOB (not thinking health and such): Gabe Bast and Josh Rieger are '96 DOBs. They have to come now or they start losing NCAA eligibility by being over 21 at arrival. That tells me the team knows the need two defensemen (Ausmus obviously, and Tucker Poolman) and it's Bast and Rieger. The team loses SR Matty Rinks. Peter Thome is a '97 DOB. Pretty clear there. Adam Scheel is a 1999. He's the insurance depending on Cam (or even Tomek). We've lost Boeser. His 'cou jersey is hanging in the visitor's locker room in The X (just saw it on the Twit). Seems clear Nic Jones (1996 DOB, transfer from OSU who is doing the transfer sit-out year in Penticton) is that slot at forward. UND ran a 14-8-4 (26 man) roster this year when it's normally 15-8-3. I wonder if they'll bring in 1997 DOB Kawaguchi to try to increase competition (and scoring). The only other 1997 is Keane and he really didn't light up the USHL this year. I suspect he's the insurance. After that, all the pipeline guys are 1998 or younger DOBs. I suppose you dip into the best of those as needed. I thought that proposal got canned? Quote

A couple bigger guys will help expecially driving the net, kinda like Tucker 2 years ago when he played some forward, and shades on Wollanin when he steps up Quote
southpaw Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I'm betting Tomek is gone. Not the best fit at UND. Quote

Would you believe only UMD had us on average height and weight(by .2 pounds)...of course that is the entire roster and not necessarily who played. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Is Tucker 100% gone? What if he wants to play with his brother again and have the final season he deaerves. You'd have to think watching yesterday's game had an impact on him. 1 Quote

I don't expect him to make that same decision again, regardless of how much fun they've had over the past year. You think he wants to leave UND injured and watching his teams' heart ripped out while he was in a suit? Quote
