Perron's production for us was mostly on the power play, he's honestly better suited for the Big Ten.

Boisvert staying would probably mean no Josephson. Could turn into a Miller for Gaarder swap in a few years. Fingers crossed.

I really like Josephson, and once he and his linemates start to gain some chemistry, we will have even more scoring depth. Hopefully he and Kernan get their first goals against Minnesota.  I’m sure being a Maple Grove kid, Kernan would love that.

He said during the NCHC Award Ceremony last spring that he wanted to have his name on the wall with other UND greats. One week later *poof* into the transfer portal. 

From what I have heard about him off of the ice, he probably is not a good fit for this program and where we want it to go.

Wouldn't mind seeing an Augustine shutout or two this weekend.

Crazy to see that Michigan has scored 26 goals this season in only 4 games, but somehow Perron only has one assist so far (and even that was a secondary assist).
I'm sure he'll get his points, but with very similar TOI to the other forwards on that team, he's falling behind quickly.

Agreed on Sacha...that one is still annoying.  He would've had a monster year.  Top 3 centers of Boisvert/Reschny/Rickwood?  Damn.
Not sure who on the team wouldn't have come in though if he would have stayed. 

Either way...still hoping that we take out both Michigan and BU in the NCAA's this year. 

We wouldn’t have landed Rickwood. At the time we got him, we didn’t have a top 6 center at all. He mentioned that he and his agent recognized how big of a role he would get if he came here. 
 

Sort of sucks not having Boisvert due to his elite shooting. But at the same time, this team’s identity (or what it seems to be after 2 games) might not be built for someone with prima donna tendencies.

to me, he reminds me of a Jordan Kawaguchi type player.  Except Guch had a slightly better shot and Mac is a slightly better passer.
But I imagine that their progression will be similar.

They had very similar stat lines their FR years at UND (Guch had 5-14--19 and Mac 2-16--18).
Guch had a good SO season (26pts) and then exploded his JR/SR years.

bingo...very much thought of Jordan...came in with hype and took a few years and then was a top level player....hope Mac keeps progressing!

Kawaguchi was much older though when he first came in, so he had even more  time to be physically ready for the college game.
