Maybe he means straight from MN high school to college??!??! If so, not many kids are successful with that route, so okay sure, I agree. If not, I won’t go back all 20 years, and reasonable minds will disagree on this next one, but the Gophers did have a Hobey Hat Trick finalist (Ben Meyers) from the metro literally just last season… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane Gerisch? MN forwards over the years haven’t done much in the NHL. Erik Haula (decent NHL career) Nick Bjugstad (I’d say underwhelming career). Who else? Casey Middlestedt only played one year U of M and didn’t accomplish much. UND has had some studs is Brock B. Nick Schmaltz (decent, not great NHL player) Brock Nelson in the last decade at forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a kid that played MN HS hockey, his numbers sure don't jump off the page. We'll see how he does on the NTDP this season. Well mcmorrow averaged over a pt/gm as a sophomore playing in arguably the toughest section in AA hockey. He’s also got picked up by the NTDP. Zellers isn’t playing NTDP and played U15 on a stacked team and was like 4th-5th in pts.. Again he may be trending right thigh, I believe he had a nice 5 nations tourney.

Not sure if the fans expected more out of him. Was a 2nd round pick (very late 2nd round pick), but there’s plenty of 2nd round NHL picks that don’t do much in their professional career. Hope he gets a NHL game soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scpa0305 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 To be clear I’m not saying Und hasn’t been recruiting well. At the end of the day, we’re up there for sure. I just miss those mid 2000s days where we’d reload every year with at least a couple blue chips. That trend has moved more to the Big10 (on average). Definitely doesn’t guarantee a natty, but better kids help. I’m sure Berry is just taking his time. Nice thing about hockey is there are always late bloomers, and we typically clean up in that department. also, im fairly certain we’ll start the year as a top 3-5 team in the country so we’re going to be good this year. MN is going to be tough, DU too, but this is a year I have natty hopes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnt Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Nick Pierre decommits from Wisconsin. Just another example of early recruits not being set in stone. Don’t know if this was based on Wisconsin recruiting more players or Pierre reevaluating where he wants to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCSioux Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Anyone know which uncommitted recruits have been on campus recently now that school has started? Hoping EJ Emery or Mac Swanson are in the mix. I’m sure the late bloomers in juniors will start visiting as they put up numbers when their seasons start.

Unless this kid has an elite first half in the USHL, I’d be curious what UND would see in him with his stats so far. Just hockeydb’d him. There’s a million good MN high school kids ever year in MN. Only a few become studs in college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cberkas Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 USDP U17 uncommitted: Kristian Epperson James Hagens - brother committed to Harvard Shane Vansaghi Noah Lapointe - brother plays at Michigan EJ Emery Logan Hensler - follows Brad Berry Sam Laurila Dakoda Rheaume-Mullen Nick Kempf - last goalie UND got from there did very well The top line is uncommitted be nice to get all three or even just two of them.
