Likely slim odds we get him like others have said with Verhoeff being the top right hand D on the roster + running the 1st powerplay

Overall if he does go to Denver at least he's in the NCHC and that's a win in the long term since it should attract other top picks to look at the NCHC and not just the Big Ten / BU+BC. The more it's a normal path the better it is for UND as those top prospects are likely only going to UND or Denver. The rich get richer.

DuPont would probably be 1 year player in NCAA. I feel like Carels could play 2? If you have an open spot for a 1 year player than yeah sure. But I don't want to push another player out that could be a 2-4 year player.

DU would make sense with them losing Pohlkamp plus maybe Buckberger this offseason.

That said, it sure would be nice to have a DuPont type guy to fly into the offensive zone on the PP similar to what Liv can do now.  
Verhoeff is a fine skater, but not sure he fits into that mold (yet at least).  Strath has potential to make a jump on a PP unit too.
Put DuPont up top on the PP and Verhoeff on the half-wall to blast his one-timer.  Would be really fun to watch for a season.  :)  

MacKenzie could be on PP2 on the half-wall too, as he's shown to have a blast of a one-timer as well.

Maybe an unpopular opinion here but I want Carles over DuPont.

If we get one of those plus the Ruck boys, I'm beyond excited.  ;)
