I’ve never liked those rankings they’re always way off after the top 10 or so. Perron is going late first/early second everywhere else and is leading the ushl in scoring as an ‘05…C? That’s a whiff.

To your point, Craig Button and The Hockey News both have Perron in their "Other Notable Prospects" list, which indicates more of a 2nd round grade, not a 4th-6th round grade. Also, Button has Andrew Strathmann as a potential first-round pick (#29 overall). 

I'm guessing the mid-season rankings update will see Perron rise quite a bit.

They are trying to forecast their odds at succeeding in the NHL.   I bet Perron got dinged because of his size/weight.

By contrast, his size won't be prevent him from being a top college player.

Sounds like we’re in on Mikey Burchill who’s playing in Dubuque. Michigan and goofs are the others in (obviously).

Did he de-commit from UMASS? I see quite a few sites that have him as a UMASS commit?

[The Sicatoka]

Yup.

Berry needs to get this guy. Need to add high end offensive talent to next years class.

Tomorrow night 2 NCHC & and as usual 2 Big 10 games will be broadcasted nationally on Direct TV and other cable providers. At some point not being televised has to effect national recruiting to some extent.
 

Yes as fans we can access the games on the NCHC app, but recruits aren’t paying for that, they will probably turn on the tv and watch games that are on their actual tv.

Every little advantage can make a difference in recruiting. And it sucks when Denver and Minnesota and NESN and BTN are more visible on larger platforms then Sioux hockey and the NCHC app.

More likely they are playing at the same time.

Any Fargo people on here - how does Mac Swanson look for the Force? Putting up great numbers as a 16 yr old.

Congrats to Mason Poolman on committing to UST. Get a series going between us, there's gotta be a 4-5k capacity rink in the vicinity they could use for it.

He decommitted. Those sites aren’t updated yet.

Is this going to be a situation where we start to see commitments come in waves? Correct me if I'm wrong, but has there really only been three commitments (non-transfer portal) in 2022? That could be the lowest number in the country. I'm a big proponent in getting a key guy from the portal, I just really hope the strategy isn't to have that become the key focus of recruiting for this staff.
