I talked to a few of them from Bishop Kearney. They really liked the facility. Coming up here all the way from Rochester is pretty cool…… the one in New York! It's a good showcase. It's a smart showcase. Between this and a camp UND has put on in the spring It's brought a lot of very high end potential recruits into the building that maybe don't usually get the chance. It's something the coaches haven't got a lot of credit for implementing, but it's a good thing g for the program. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geez, sign that kid up, we need finishers. Get Marvin-Cordes too...I like the sounds of his description...small and fast. I'm all for another Panzer.

Berry doesn’t seem to offer scholarships to kids playing high school hockey very often. A lot of these guy’s playing in this tournament might be more “keep an eye on and see how they do in juniors” types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising, HS players are a lot more volatile and unpredictable in terms of production compared to already established USHL, BCHL etc. players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be one thing if every recruit made it to campus, but they don't. I'm not for the old Wisconsin approach either of having 40 recruits lined up, but I would say some HS players would be worth the "risk". 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not necessarily a fan of never offering scholarships to high school players myself, but it seems Berry is only going to offer the completely obvious D1/NHL prospect playing high school hockey. And to be fair, I don’t think he’s the only coach like this. That’s why all these high school hockey players are committing to more mid-tier college hockey schools that will offer them before they get to juniors. They don’t want to wait until juniors to commit a lot of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People wondered why we didn't offer Garrett Worth, Grant Slukynsky, or Landon Parker, but we have seen that even guys that at one point were expected to be high draft picks like Ryder Donovan and Mitchell Mattson didn't really pan out. Everyone can call out the coaches after the fact when a player works out, but the same ones would be the first to complain when we have a roster that "has no talent". Zach Yon looked to be a great college player from his high school career, but many complained about him when he was here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxScore Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Really like a couple of Moorhead kids. I'd be all over the Soph. Lindberg, reminds me a lot of Frisch. Reirson has been impressive too and would be a kid I'd be watching closely in JRs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilgrim looks the part but he’s being spoon fed by shaugabay. His vision doesn’t look the part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he actually did well in the ushl this year. So our miss I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
