AJS Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 9 minutes ago, tnt said: So when does Schlossman put out his top 20 targets that will be eligible to commit on August 1. I know it isn't completely comprehensive and includes a local flavor since they may be more likely to be targets, but it is always nice to get a gauge on who we could be after when that deadline rolls around. Usually about a week before they can start committing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Michigan commit Kristian Epperson headed to Saginaw in the O after a lackluster U18 year with NTDP. Might get drafted Saturday, but really fell down the charts this year. By the time he ages out of MJ he might be eligible for NCAA though.

This gets asked a lot on here and someone did say no, and from what I can find Jon lives in St. Louis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly a nephew, or just a coincidence when we're so used to top players having family pedigree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxforce19 Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Saw this on Twitter/X. Not sure on the level of interest, but could be a couple names to watch when the new recruiting cycle opens. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with all those issues, they still managed 2nd, 4th, and 6th round picks in the draft. Not quite our draft, but most schools would take that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sometimes wonder about all these 5-star recruits going to MI & other places out east instead of UND. Is it that we don't want these future 1st-rounders, or are we trying but just not getting them? UND usually lands a 1st-round forward every 5 years or so (simply guessing here) whereas MI locks them down seemingly every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 It's hard to look at our incoming freshmen and other committed recruits and say that UND is struggling with winning recruiting battles. Sure, it'd be great to load up on as many first rounders as possible, but that strategy sure hasn't worked well for other schools recently. Hopefully the team has the right "mix" this year of high-end and grit to make a serious push in the NCAA's. Season almost here?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many don’t even end up at Michigan. Weren’t there a couple this year that decided not to go the college route? I know Perfetti was another that didn’t go the college route. We’ll see if Michigan can continue to reload after losing guys and make the tournament. They put it together late last year, but they lost some talent again, so the studs better produce early like the others seem to have done.

From a recruit standpoint, especially a Toronto kid, Michigan would make complete sense. Toronto is their territory…tough sell with the O being right there though. On paper, we just had a really nice recruiting year. Can we compete for blue chips the way Michigan does? No way. But we compete on the ice which is all that matters. There’s a few ways to recruit and Bubs and Co has picked it up recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So UND, having a storied tradition & a facility that surpasses all others, can't compete with MI on the recruiting trail for the bluest of blue chips? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
