Doubt it would happen but what IF Blake didn't play tomorrow how would that effect his contract?

Does that mean he doesn't burn a year off the rookie deal?

My portal predictions:

- UND won't be "most added from portal" this year (three, maybe four, but Merrimack is four already!) 
- the Rink Live spreadsheet will have 300+ names by May

Update:

- SHU at 7, 'mack at 6, AIC and N'eastern at 5 each <- thinking my prediction here is safe
- spreadsheet at line 300 this morning (two heading lines so 298) <-- feeling safe here

Are we pursuing any more portal players ?

I wouldn't be surprised with another forward portal player unless we plan on bringing in both Klee & Littler.

Both Klee and Littler have question marks.

  • Why'd Littler go back to BC from the USHL?
  • Is Klee ready or does he need a top 6 USHL season? 

The roster needs two forwards to get back to 15.

Hopefully his younger and more talented brother Zeev gets picked high in the NHL draft by a defenseman hungry NHL team and leaves as well!

Get Behrens, Rizzo, and Devine to sign as well. Maybe even Carle to leave for the NHL.

I'm kind of surprised that Davis hasn't signed yet.  Normally there is a team willing to go with a "Lightning in a bottle" gamble on a kid that had the performance that he had.

I'm hearing from my Denver fans friends to expect something soon from the Carle camp about possibilities in the NHL.  The Pios are talking restructuring his contract, so it will take a bit of guaranteed money to get him to jump ship.

I would be shocked if Carle left.  You are on top of the college hockey world and have job security plus sounds like DU is possibly going to give him a raise.

Nice that didn’t take long. 
If one more signs today, we’d have ourselves a Meatloaf song.

Let's play the "what needs to happen" to the following teams, starting now. This is from a UND perspective to bring them down a bit.

  • Denver: 1 more early signing
  • Boston College: 2 more early signings
  • Boston University: Celibrini to sign after he's drafted
  • Michigan: 1 more early signing
  • Michigan State: 2 early signings

 

Ideally, we see more, but at a minimum, we need that to bring UND even starting next year.

Important note. The final central scouting rankings were released and you had three NCAA players in the Top 4 for NA.

Maybe I just have higher expectations of a program like ours, which used to be considered the best or at least one of.   Now we are content beating our rivals because they lose their best talent?  We used to say, "Bring your best and be ready to lose."   I hope the players and staff haven't lowered their standards like we have here. 

:D

No way DU is giving the kind of money he would see in the NHL, if a job in the NHL comes up and they want to hire him, he will take it.
