I would have Hage and Wyttenbach there WAY BEFORE Hughes.  Producing at younger ages in the NCAA matters because it's much more impressive. Hage (2006) had a more impressive season than Hughes (2001) on the same team.

 

The only argument against Wyttenbach (2007) is the ECAC is weak/sucks and he stat padded against weaker teams. Don't know what his non conference splits were. I'd still have above Hughes, but Hage ahead of Wyttenbach.

 

10G, 12 A in 16 OOC games. Except for Notre Dame and UND, all opponents were AHA and HEA. 15 G, 22 A in ECAC play

Good for Miami

Asked Mike McMahon if the extension was caused by a Big 10 team probing around but he hasn't heard anything regarding that.

 

I'm cool with Penn State sticking with Gadowsky by all means hahah. Don't see them as a dangerous title contender until he's not behind their0 bench. That style of play he insists on coaching lead to them beating pretty much 0 high end teams this year if you go through their schedule.

Potulny, Miller, Larson all with HC experience at NCAA...

....toss in Laylin, Cullen....keep Gordon and Martin.  Not even close IMO.  

I can respect that but I would take Oliver and Herter over any of those.

Need more of these and make them exempt from game limits 

[atxsioux]

Agreed with above logic - would like to see them do that for events + add "protected" non-conference rivalry 2 game series as exempt. (IE - UND vs Gophers, Denver vs BC, UND vs BU)

Trupp is an assistant there

[cberkas]

Sounds like Shasby resigned at UAA and not fired

I knew ASU was going to be in it

Larson announced staff of like 6. Is that legal in NCAA

Only those top 4 including can Larson can recruit off campus or whatever the rule is. That's why Bryn is technically 1 of the 4 coaches so he travel to recruit.

Nice group of teams. UMass becoming a fairly consistent contender in Hockey East, Wisconsin back up & in the mix, Arizona State while inconsistent, is starting to recruit better & better talent, and Northern Michigan a team in the region who I'd like to see be more competitive again

If it's true that all these SCSU players are following Larson to UMN, SCSU might be in the hurt locker next season for the NCHC race.

Would be interesting to see how many are following Larson. Losing any of Burnevik, Thoreson, Hall, Henricks, Urness, Roed, Miettinen, Loftus, Berzins, Shostak plus recruits like Souch, Sivertson, & Stengrim would really hurt the Huskies.

Only Larson, Gordon, Laylin, and Martin matter since they are the coaches.

Cullen will be gone when his kids leave. Cullen is doing Martins job from the last few seasons

There was a post on GPL that said currently UMN has 12 returning forwards, 6 possible incoming forward recruits, and 3 possible forwards coming from SCSU.
Doing some quick math, that's 21 potential forwards for next year.  
Larson is gonna have to cut a pile of players or delay a bunch of them (which might lead to more decommits).
Gonna be a real interesting portal season to watch.

Airey (already in portal), Rud, Begley, Harris, Falloon, McLaughlin are the easy candidates. Others like Townsend, Clark, Ludtke, Pahlsson would be darkhorses to enter, but also wouldn't surprise me.
