They kinda got burned by the same type of player last year (Fondrk, Murtagh, Amico all come to mind as guys that should've all been in JRs last year) My thoughts as well when I saw that announcement.

Be fun to see their progress and interest in UND. Several guys that were previously selected by WHL teams but didn't sign were drafted, however it seemed quite clear to me that guys that had a high probability of going CHL were not picked up or picked up late as flyers. Seemed to me that the battle lines are really being drawn between USA Hockey and Hockey Canada...which is too bad, because it only hurts the kids. Another note is that the online rating and scouting services seem to be off in left field on a number of these guys. Not surprising. They get paid on clicks, not on wining games or getting guys to the next level. Who got drafed from Grand Forks ? We need some local blood in the future pipeline at some point. Quote
