Is the draft a timing consideration for any announcement from Verhoff?

He’s with the U18 team right now

JJW is from Verona, WI.
Isn't that Schmaltz-ylvania? 
Get "-People's" * to put in a good word?

Correct, Verona is Schmaltz-ylvania. Would hope Jordan & Jake put in a good word, Nick is a little busy right now

... the Ruck boys could form the most dominant 3rd line in the NCAA at UND next season.    

So ... two Rucks could make it right? 

 

Thank you, thank you. I'm here all week. Next show's at 8:30. Don't forget to tip your hostess. Try the veal. Good night everyone!

So all the talk for months has been about the "big 4" WHL D men (Carels, DuPont, Lin and Rudolph) but does anyone know anything about another stud in Xaivier Villeneuve? I'm assuming based on his location that if he goes the college route it's somewhere out East presumable BC, BU, Penn St? Just odd I haven't read anything really on him. And full disclosure I don't think he's someone we are in on but with Chyz I'd imagine he atleast has kicked the tires throughout the year on most everyone.

It's been widely rumored that Boston University & Boston College have been heavily pursuing Villeneuve. Many believe the Terriers have the slight edge. Would assume other blue blood/power programs are keeping tabs (Penn State & Michigan State make sense), but so many don't have room for next year at current time. Obviously subject to change with the possibility that committed recruits get deferred.

Are the follows of Livanavage, Wiebe, and Heil from Wiebusch new?

Livanavage and Wiebe played with him at the Spengler Cup

Beckett Hamilton (2008, Saskatoon, SK, Red Deer Rebels) would be one to watch for the future. Has really come on this year in the Dub

Not to rain on the parade, but I wouldn't plan on the Ruck twins coming to UND. There wasn't much chatter between them and UND a month ago

I’m not even sure if they’re going NCAA. But if they do, I’m sure Bryn will try to get UND in the mix. 
Like last year…there wasn’t any chatter on Reschny and Verhoeff to UND but that worked out.

Reschny’s brother will help recruit them.

Have you heard anything about who might be more realistic targets?

Based on follows, maybe Belchetz or Command.

Landon DuPont with the game winning goal to put Everett into the Memorial Cup finals.  Carels’ Prince George team lost 1-0, and has some work to do to get to the final, down 3-2 in games.
