Prospective Recruits

So what is your point? We shouldn't care if we don't land blue chip recruits to complement our three and four year guys?

Not at all.

My posts today ultimately had nothing to do with UND. It was about how weird I find it to try to spin what BU / UofM have done since August 1st into a potential negative. That's it. My original post was strictly a compliment to both those programs.

I mean Michigan was the #1 team all of last year and lost in the Frozen Four in OT. Duluth / Denver being the exceptions it seems, there could be worse things then watching high level NHL talent, win a lot of games and make Frozen Fours even if it doesn't produce a Championship. UND fans know as well as anyone, it's not easy to win a Championship. 

But you have to remember, Covid was probably the reason they got year 2 out of guys like Power, etc.

Let's bring this back on track. Here's a list of five players I'm fairly certain that Berry and staff are actively recruiting. How many does UND end up with?

• Keith McInnis
• Danny Nelson
• EJ Emery
• Will Zellers
• Brendan McMorrow

Hopefully enough of them to calm people down on this thread.

Sure. There’s no real magic bullet for roster construction. UND has one playoff win in the past five years. Not to turn negative on UND, they’ve had good teams during that time, more making the point of why can’t people just tip their cap to other programs sometimes. There isn’t anything negative you could say about these last two weeks for Minny or BU.

Yeah there is…gophers suck and always will

You’re posts all made sense. MN and BU have hit so far plain and simple.

as for mn, this state has produced some really high end players for those birth year. MN should have the easiest time getting those kids. Kind of makes sense

I do think we have a chance with Nelson

One of those five years, there was no tournament because of COVID-19. Another one of those five years, our opponent in the regional final got a bye into the title game because of COVID-19. The other three years, you can argue our recruiting let us down.

Complete waste of time trying to rationalize him in this vein, FS4L

And McInnis. We're still for sure in on him.

Maybe we can steal one from the top dog recruiters since someone stated he was down to only BU and Minny earlier.

Yeah I read BU and UMN as well in a couple places. 
That'd be a big get considering the weeks that those other two schools have had. 
Full court press, Berry!

This would be a nice win and boost to morale around town

[AlphaMikeFoxtrot]

Hopefully the likelihood of being drafted by the Senators doesn't scare him off...

That's impossible with passionate UND hockey fans.

Is Zellers related to the political from ND? I heard we have a good chance at McInnes.

Zellers parents are both UND alumni. Dad played football at UND for a year or two and was in politics in Minnesota. Not sure what he is doing now.

I would hope UND can land him. It’s Kurt Zellers kid. All of them are wearing UND jerseys on Facebook.

Zellers, McInnis, and Eiserman would be an excellent trio to join Boisvert.
Lock 'em up, Berry & Co!

There is a better chance of getting all five guys @AJS previously mentioned than there is of getting Eiserman. (So not great).

We’re in his final three supposedly, so we can cross our fingers.

… sounds like it’s really between the other two though so Berry would rrrreeeeaaaallly need to pull a rabbit out of his hat.

Updating this list to add Eiserman.

• Keith McInnis 
• Danny Nelson 
• EJ Emery 
• Will Zellers 
• Brendan McMorrow
• Cole Eiserman

Doubtful we were in on him, but Theo Kiss to UMASS
