brianvf Posted March 23, 2023 Author Posted March 23, 2023 Seems like an odd take. Peters didn't think his style fit in well with UMD, but he thinks MSU would be a better fit? MSU doesn't exactly play a "run-n-gun" style of play...if anything I'd say they're pretty similar to UMD. Quote

Guessing Bubs wouldn’t touch him with a ten ft pole. Fairly outspoken kid, definitely new school. Quote

We literally have ONE defensemen for next season and a really nice group of young forwards. Feels like we're going all in on offense lol. Quote

brianvf Posted March 23, 2023 Author Posted March 23, 2023 https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/tyler-kleven-signs-three-year-deal-with-ottawa-senators Quote "We're very pleased that Tyler has recently made the decision to begin his pro career," Senators general manager Pierre Dorion said. "He's a big, rangy, hard-nosed defender who maintains a physical presence while on the ice and an ability to hammer the puck with his shot. We've been especially impressed with his overall development dating to his draft year." Quote Kleven’s physicality often resulted in penalty minutes — he had 214 across three seasons — and sometimes game misconducts. Kleven was called for seven major penalties in the last two seasons and was suspended a game three separate times. After getting his fourth major of this season on Feb. 11 at Denver, Kleven was called for just one minor penalty in UND’s final nine games. Pretty impressive how he modified his game slightly after his last major...you could definitely see the adjustment in his game and how well he was playing. 2 Quote

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 One of the worst parts of being down this season is the inability to revel in Duluth reverting to their mean. 2 Quote

I could be wrong on that though. All these higher end kids signing will get a couple games. I believe 25/K is too old for the contract to slide, and signing him burns a year regardless if he played games in AHL/NHL. They could have signed him to an ATO, to save a year, but he has no incentive to want that Quote
