fightingsioux4life Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Roll out the young D men and live with their mistakes. Hopefully, they grow and learn together and develop chemistry. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJS Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 4 hours ago, AJS said: The quality of Goaltender is high in the portal. Feel good about not only what's in there, but UND's chances. What about defenseman? Knowing a RH shot is almost a necessity, I can only find two currently that seem like they would be solid gets. Tanner Palocsik - 3rd Team All ECAC (2nd Team All-Ivy) Luke Krys - 2nd Team All-Ivy Both Captains last year. Anyone else? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted March 24, 2023 Author Share Posted March 24, 2023 Palocsik could certainly get a pile of minutes coming here, for sure. Plus PP time. Just unfortunate that both those guys could only be here one year. Would be great if one of the portal D pickups could have at least 2. But gotta take what's available and best for the team.

I believe you are right that the “lazy” comments sounds like “sour grapes”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it lack of playing time or does he have a good amount of ice time? probably got sick and tired of trying to figure out what gfhockey was saying on his snapchat.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Ranger Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Looks like Howard could be heading to Mich St as well. They must really love this Nightingale guy. Also hearing potentially Hastings to Wisco. They must be throwing the bag at him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully our coaches are plugged in with the family advisor/agent type guys who may know of additional players hitting the portal that are on teams still currently playing.

I would think the getting commitments would pick up next week or the week after. Really, we haven't seen too many commitments overall. Right now, I believe there are only 4 guys that are in the portal that the Coaching staff would be putting the full court press on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a balancing act for sure. At the same point, there are guys that fit. Like I mentioned, I think right now there are four that check all the boxes, regardless of who else enters.
