Doesn't seem like as big of a loss as the rest. It's possible Strand didn't want him, too.

Still.....

Does anyone have any information on Hobie Hedquist? He hasn't played since April 19 because of an injury (I believe). 

Penticton is playing Alberni Valley, Hedquist's team, for the BCHL championship and Hedquist isn't even listed on the line chart.

(OT: Penticton was 50-3 in the regular season and is 14-1 so far in the playoffs. Surreal numbers.)

Yes, injury holding him out unfortunately. 
It was mentioned that the injury won’t impact him this fall at UND though.

Was told Hedquist was on campus this week registering for classes for next year

Take it easy dude. 

I'm guessing you haven't been following along with the msu stuff. Purely a joke. I wish no ill will on the kid.

Schloss named Logan Britt as their target for the 8th D spot.

Britt (LH D) would be a one-year rental. He played two at the Q and two at SHU. 

He played juniors with the Aberdeen Wings and won a Clark Cup with Sioux Falls.

6'2. They're not going small with this d-core, and I love it.

I wonder if this is a "tell" on why whoever played last season.
Did the coaches believe we were being shoved around and tried to go as big as they could most nights? 

Last year it was 6-4, 6-2, 6-2, ... 5-10, 5-9, 5-9, 5-8, 5-8. (from UND roster)

Now it's 6-1, 6-2, 6-1, 6-4, 6-1, 6-3, ... 5-10, and maybe 6-2.  (from Elite Prospects)

It's no longer "maybe". 

Last year 5-10 was top half of heights; this year it's the shortest.

Who were the 5'8 defensemen? I'm getting this for our D last season based on the roster

6'5 (Kleven), 6'2 (Sidorski, Moore), 6 (Johnson), 5'11 (Farmer, Jandric, Frisch), 5'10 (Bast)

 

[The Sicatoka]

The "official" 2022-23 UND put out was:

Player Height (inches)

Sidorski      74 (6-2)
Farmer       68
Moore        74
Johnson     69
Jandric       69
Frisch         70
Bast            68 (5-8) 
Kleven        76

Comments last fall were guys had shrunk. 

I'd copied that data off a UND site or release last fall to a spreadsheet; now it doesn't match what FightingHawks.com shows. 

[SpudsSioux]

That's funny. Weird that there would be such a difference from the online roster. Hope the new guys don't shrink when they get to Grand Forks, too!

Wash them in cold like clothes? 

NO. Wait. Not good. Ask George Costanza.

Apparently it’s not just diamond salesmen who believe size matters.

Someone in maroon and gold asked me if we were changing our name to the "Portal Hawks".......

I told him that I have high hopes that will change.

I have zero idea if Lawson Body would be an option for Bubs but he just had a really nice playoffs for his NA team, won the chip tonight. In looking at his numbers, they’re really solid and he’s be on the older side. Local too.

I asked schloss about it, he said that he wouldn't be surprised if LB went the ivy league route

Oh sure ok. Great numbers (albeit in an iffy league), captain too. I just listened to his post championship game interview…very well spoken kid. I’d be perfectly fine taking a kid like that to fill a depth role. But, if he’s thinking an Ivy that obviously makes sense too.
