We already have 3 defensemen scheduled to come in next year to replace the 3 we have that are out of eligibility. And I don’t think any of them are going to be playing another year of junior. Emery, Strathmann won’t be. Jubenvil ages out. So we’d have to make room for a ninth D unless there’s an unexpected departure. 
 

Don’t get me wrong, I like Gruba, and would like him at UND, but just curious how we’d make room. 

Oh yeah you're right. I don't know why I was thinking we would be losing 4 and not 3. And yes those 3 are definitely not playing another year of juniors. I'm guessing we probably aren't in then as we don't have room.

Was wondering about Ausmus, because if he was supposed to be more of an offensive defenseman, the numbers in the more wide open BCHL haven't been there.  

Ya…wondering about that one

Boy Bubs and team needs to lock up Leo Gruba before he heads to the goofs 

So when did he decommit from St. Cloud?

But…please take Leo Gruba and figure the rest out later.

Anyone know if Matvei Gridin is a college hockey candidate.  A 2006 leading the USHL in points.  Plays on a team with Boisvert and Croal, so I assume the coaches have seen him play.

I looked him up a while ago because I was curious. I saw an article from last year saying he has no desire to play college hockey. Sounds like he’s planning to just skip it and go pro.

Well that answers that.

[AlphaMikeFoxtrot]

Henry Lechner to UST. Not related to the HM coach is what I understand.

Just going to repost this. Fairly clear now that Gruba may just be a player you make room for. Coaches should be in touch with him. Close to home too.

What happened with his SCSC commitment? His dad played there also.

No inside info but the chatter/rumors are that SCSU was not happy Gruba wanted to play another year in Fargo. I would guess that might have caused some tension that made him uncomfortable if there’s any truth to it.

I’m guessing he’ll wear maroon and gold but I do think he’s a player you make a push for.

I know some Minnesota fans are hoping Motzko brings him in after Christmas.   Of course they were super stoked about Clayton Phillips coming in early as well, and he was on to Penn State after a short stint with the gophers.

Would definitely be a solid way at convincing him to go gophs

Gophs it is for Gruba

Solid couple days for the Goofs landing Pahlsson and Gruba from the USHL.  Still a relatively quiet recruiting cycle for them.

Really? Those two are huge gets, Mooney…they’re doing just fine. Eiserman obv a downer but I still don’t think he plays a college season. 

[gfhockey]

Did we want any of those guys?

They’re doing fine but their fans were definitely in a doom and gloom mood about it for a while. Kind of like we were the previous summer before commitments started to come in.
