Yeah, I’ve learned EP ain’t great at updating that stuff. He only took 15 faceoffs for MTU last season.

All signs are pointing towards Ellias Rickwood joining UND next year. He will fill a much needed top 6 center role.

Lots of talk about both Rickwood and Gordon to UND.
Both would be very nice additions and still leave room for a couple high end CHL guys as well.

I wonder if UND views Gordon as a center. I know he has the ability to but so does Strinden and Swanson. Either way, getting both of those guys would be huge for next year.

So we tampered with both? 

Big fish eats the little one, not my problem give me some!

Rickwood’s family members recently followed UND hockey on instagram. Gordon also follows UND hockey. Take what you want from that information.

Most players are tampered with in the portal. If these two guys commit to UND, they likely knew it before they even entered their name in the portal.

Sounds like BU and Michigan had been tampering with our players since February, so evidently the days of The Gentleman’s Agreement are long gone.

Gordon's family lives a couple hours away from Grand Forks also.

No issue with that, many or most schools are in negotiations with players before they officially enter the portal.. it's when schools are in talks with players of other teams during the season that it becomes unethical.

Landmark Manitoba, 2 hours and 30 minutes from Grand Forks. Local kid essentially. Guarantee you he knew about UND Hockey growing up, it's the one NCAA program that most hockey loving Western Canadians know a decent amount about.

I remember his name coming up in 2021 & 2022 when he was tearing up the BCHL in his 18 and 19 year old seasons as a fringe NHL Draft late round target. Seems like he took off last year for Clarkson, would be a nice addition.

Tampering is direct contact.
Now that players have advisors and NIL reps it's Coach Z talks to rep who talks to player. And all of it in "hypotheticals".

You could lose draft picks in the NFL for that.

Probably because the NFL has a governing body with actual authority. The NCAA is a lame duck.

That was my thought when I saw he was on Tri City.

3rd highest scoring defenseman in the USHL 2 years ago! Great pull Brad

He could switch to a different green and white
