Hobie showed he can. And just so we're clear, I'm not against bringing in Hampton as he seems like he's got the goods. But, I'm not ready to bail on either Hobie or Heil. If Heil does take two years, then it'll be fine, but that means Hobie again has a big battle for playing time that I'm sure he'd appreciate not to have to have lol. That’s the way this should be assessed to be honest. How does it impact Hobie, because Heil could be two years away plus. I honestly don’t think it’s an issue to have both. I’m not entirely sold that Hobie can take the reins yet, but I doubt he wants to be third string. To me they’re two separate types of prospects. Hampton is a mid round NHL draft pick that (I believe) just won USHL goaltender of the year (albeit on a stacked team). Hobie struggled pretty bad in the ushl and went North. He looked ok last year. I’m just not sure you could pass on Hampton if that opportunity presented itself. You’d get him for at least three years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're trying to use the logical one in a situation where illogic seems to dominate.

The checking from behind I like because you keep seeing players turn at the last minute on what would be a clean hit that ends up being a major. I liked the Penalty rule, thought they should keep it, if you score, before the penalty take effect, you really don't benefit from the penalty.

The Sicatoka Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 - You make perfect pass sending teammate on breakaway - You get slashed in the process - Teammate scores You should get breakaway goal and powerplay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to the USCHO Podcast, and they were talking about how NCAA is trying to be like the NHL. They all agreed that you don't see the double (goal on a delayed penalty and following power play) that often so the change wasn't needed. They also said they would like the puck over the glass delay of game called, which I agree it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want scoring to go up, this is one way to help increase that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be you had 2 minutes to score as many times as you could but that changed because of the Canadians. I am surprised the NHL never adopted the NCAA rule for a goal on a delayed penalty.

The NCHC acted fast enough that St. Thomas will avoid paying any exit fee altogether. According to CCHA bylaws, there was no exit fee if a team gave the league a two-year notice. The Tommies did that. CCHA members were furious about the quick exit — and the fallout might not be over. Quote There is a belief among some at St. Thomas that the CCHA is preparing to kick the Tommies out of the league after this season, leaving them as an independent in 2025-26. Also in that article: Quote The NCHC is close to finalizing a new rule that would wipe out travel roster limits. Right now, teams can only travel with 23 players for conference games. Once finalized, teams will be able to travel and play everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
