I hope Blake understands that it's entirely his decision and not a decision for the Hurricanes to make. Carolina can't do a thing about it if he tells them he is going back to school for his Junior year. What are they going to do, cut him? They can't, he hasn't signed with them yet. He has leverage over Carolina and he should use it by coming back for a third year of NCAA hockey and becoming a free agent next year.

... or force a rookie-max deal. (CAR didn't do it for Scott Morrow.)

I'm old enough now to where I can't let what a 20 year old (Whom I'll never probably meet) decides to do with his (ope, he/they/them) life effect mine too much.

They've got to make a decision and live with it, and I've got to figure out how to help my 12 year old figure out his short game so he can make the junior high golf team.

Let's get the ship righted with whoever is on the roster in September.  I'll still bleed green either way and still have to explain to my wife why I yell at the TV on Fridays and Saturdays from October through March. (Cough....April @brianvf)

 

Have him watch the Bryan Bros on youtube. Wedgeley is a short game maestro.

But, hey, looks like we landed a defender.

Looks like a great addition, but not the direction I thought they were going (which was RHD, one year remaining). 

Next year.

Last time I checked, Denver is not in the B1G. They are a small, private school. Yet they are killing us in recruiting and the portal.

Yet they only went 1-3 against UND this year, with the lone win in the fluky 3x3.

Looks like a solid addition for 2024-2025. If our portal additions are as good as they were in 2023-2024, we'll be in good shape.

If Blake signs as has been mentioned, would be great to land one/both of the Wilkie/Wood combo.

Definitely but I would also like to be after Whitelaw to replace Blake if he signs. Think he could be a good replacement only if Blake leaves.

I know ALL of the smoke has been on Wood to Minny, but I think the kid must be really considering his options because he's still unsigned. Would be lovely, but I know we're strongly in contention for Wilkie.

Well, if Carle got Pohlkamp because he is an American, then Berry should be able to pull Wood away from the Canadian-hating Minnesota crowd.   (...and yes, despite Close, there are still a few of them.)

Oh man, I hear the "Canadian argument" from Minny fans still today, all the time. It's the dumbest thing ever to argue why one team is better than the other.

Your logic is undeniable. Consider Wood a new add ;)

Did they forget that one of their icons, Lou Nanne, is from the great white North?  Hosers.

Uh oh, MacDonald has been talking to Blake?...

               Will he wear No. 7 at UND like Jandric and Pyke?

               "I'm not too sure yet," said MacDonald, who wore No. 9 at Alaska. "I'll have to talk to the coaches and see what's available."
