neonpelican Posted yesterday at 05:27 AM Posted yesterday at 05:27 AM Increasing season tickets last week was a slap in the face. I thought blowing money on destination games was hard to swallow. How are tickets selling for Austin going to go? Quote

SIOUXELEVENS Posted yesterday at 11:49 AM Posted yesterday at 11:49 AM We move on and have faith that Dane and whatever his new staff is will put together a team. Quote
brucespook Posted yesterday at 12:34 PM Posted yesterday at 12:34 PM The players who’ll play for the team and each other stayed and will make a good solid base. Even if next years team is less talented it will be more successful 2 1 Quote

Littler got hot at the right time down the stretch. He should be a very good 3-4 year player. Hopefully Jackson and staff fully unlock Swanson so we can see what he did in junior at the NCAA level on a consistent basis. Swanson needs to get bigger. He has the body of a 13 year old right now. 1 Quote

Speaking of body change: Watching one of Blackheart's memory lane oldies with St. Cloud in their better days. Tyler Arnason. Great talent, but what a tub he grew into! Did he have any kind of pro career? And was there something medical going on there, or did he just like his pizza and beer? 1 Quote

In my opinion, no. Not even close. The new reality is that kids (in all sports) are going to seek greener pastures. It's true in hockey and football and basketball. Other sports as well, I assume. The traditional powers are not going to be exempt. Kids will leave traditional powers for other traditional powers, or even schools of lesser standing if they think it will improve their situation. Matthew Wood, as a first rounder, leaves UConn to go to MN. MN exits in the first round and UConn nearly makes it to its first Frozen Four. MN loses a kid to Mankato. We've lost high draft picks to OSU or elsewhere. It's the new reality. We just have to be prepared for it so that we can pick off players from other teams as well. Boisvert was a very talented player, will likely be a Hobey Finalist candidate wherever he goes, and will play exactly one more year of college hockey. I think we'll survive without him. As for Perron and OM, I would have loved to see them stay, develop and finish their college careers here. But there have been hundreds of players as talented as they are who have come through the program before, and and hundreds more who will come after them. They are not irreplaceable. Far from it. I wish them the best. Good luck wherever they go. But if we play you, I would hope we will greet you rudely. 4 4 Quote
ChadR Posted yesterday at 02:49 PM Posted yesterday at 02:49 PM I dont understand the Perron connection to Michigan? He put up very average numbers in 2 year here. Quote

Yeah, if a couple of them didn't want to go into corners before, you really might want to steer clear of them if you end up playing us. Quote

Oh well, he has to do what he thinks is best for his life and career. Quote

Chicago Steel in junior. The Chicago Steel have sent a ton of players to Michigan in recent memory. Perron probably believes that Naurato and a more open offensive system can boost his numbers (even though that didn't really happen for Whitelaw this past season). 1 Quote

Langster019 Posted yesterday at 03:41 PM Posted yesterday at 03:41 PM Western had 16-17 new guys this year. Who’s to say it can’t be done elsewhere? Remember when UND had 6 brand new D? That turned out to be ok. 1 Quote
