hockeytherapy13 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 This is always a fun game and interesting to see how it actually shakes out Gaber-Schmaltz-Blake Kunz-Costantini-Caulfield Hain-Jammer-Senden James-Mclaughlin-Portz (James and mclaughlin will soon be high on the depth chart IMHO) Albrecht-Ness-Strinden Montgomery Kleven-Frisch Moore-Farmer Jandric-Johnson Bast-Sidorski DeRidder Hellsten Johnson I really want to see Costantini in the top-6 on a regular basis after the freshman year he had but I also see 3 of the 4 incoming freshman forwards making offensive impacts (much needed after losing Sanderson and Ford) by Christmas. We have some great depth forwards and should have a solid group of backcheckers. With our D corp and goaltending I see us as a hard team to score against. We may have one of the best top-8 D corp in the country. I think Denver and St cloud are solid there as well but we have a group of guys with a lot of experience at the NCAA level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was more of a projection of what I think we will see. I’d rather see McLaughlin and James higher up soon but idk if that’ll happen. Also I’d be surprised if the D lines aren’t close to what I have with maybe 1 swap being Jandric and Moore. What’s your guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just strictly based on listening to Berry (and even Senden more recently) talk in a few interviews in preseason. Mostly I just want them to try new combos in the top 6. For example, Gaber - Schmaltz- Caulfield was a line we saw a lot last year. I’d like to see something different. I also am in the minority opinion that I’d like them to split up the Hain-Jammer-Senden line. They can always go back to it later, but I think we should experiment early on and see if something else works better and potentially put together a stronger 4th line that could produce more than they have recently. just my opinion though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agree on the desire the split the Jammer line. They all have tools that will work better on different lines. I also think we see jammer taking draws on power play and PK to get possession and then changing out for someone else like they would sometimes do with Pinto, weatherby, Ford since they were all great faceoff guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Sigh.....again.......it's not difficult okay....I don't care about any other lines..... Hain-Jammer-Senden..... Don't mess up that chemistry by throwing Judd with them unless Hain isn't 100%. That's the shutdown line, none of them are top 6 guys, but they can play with any line in the country, and they showed it last year when they dominated the Brink line when we swept Denver. On the road when we don't have last change coming off a media break it's academic who goes out if the face off is in our end. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnt Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I'll just say that it is very rare when at least a few of the freshmen don't struggle for a bit to transition to the college game. With that, I think some of the line combinations proposed may not transpire right away, but could by the second half of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoneySIOUX Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 My prediction.... a lot of moving parts until around January. But, I'll take my shot: Getter, setter, netter...

The Sicatoka Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 So many putting two freshmen on a forward line together; maybe against the Manitoba Bisons but not before Christmas or until they prove themselves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I get the shiny object effect but I truly down our top 6 is full of underclassmen. We may be in a world of hurt if that’s the case. Kunz, etc all put up similar numbers to those guys. They should all get looks…but again, I’d be shocked if they were all top 6. Blake should probably get the first look (at least on the pp) as he’s a wizard but D may be lacking. I could see James too at even strength filing in a w role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
