Prospective Recruits

Jim O'Brien

The most intriguing prospect on the UW radar screen for next season is Jim O'Brien, a highly regarded winger with the NTDP, but he said last week he will not make a decision until after he has made all his official recruiting visits.

O'Brien, from Maplewood, Minn., said he "had a great amount of interest in Wisconsin" after making an unofficial campus visit here last December. He identified Colorado College, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota and UW as the schools he intended to visit

"I'll know the right school when I see it," O'Brien said.

Listed at 6-foot-3 and 184 pounds, O'Brien is the youngest player on the NTDP under-18 team (he turns 17 in January).

The International Scouting Service ranked O'Brien the top 1989-born player in the U.S. last year.

darcy zajac featured on BCHL home page..

Salmon Arm Silverbacks's

Darcy Zajac

Darcy has risen to the top of Silverbacks scoring with 13 goals and 15 assists in just 15 games so far this season. His fine play is not going unnoticed as he moves up in overall league scoring into 4th spot. Even with great blood lines Darcy is making his presence felt.

I thought it was mentioned somewhere about Fredheim, a defenseman out of the BCHL who was drafted recently being somewhere on the radar to watch.  Well, he committed to CC.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Fredheim plays for Notre Dame in the SJHL. I don't know if the Sioux recruited him, but UND was not one of the schools on his short list.

I Heard from someone who watched Denver skate this morning that Darcy Zajac is in town this weekend. Hopefully a sign of good things to come.

there is suppose to be someone else visiting next week too during the Badgers series. Not sure who it is but heard aabout it. Maybe someone else on here can answer it for us.

Mario puts up both tri city goals tonite in a 4-2 loss. Hopefully he is starting to get his groove since hasnt done much on the stats side of the game yet this year. 4 pts in 13 games isnt eye opening so lets hope he kicks it into high gear now. Same can be said for Vandevelde he has been quiet lately.

Friday night the Sioux had two recruits sitting with the players who weren't dressed, one was Zajac"s brother Darcy and the other was the leading goalie in the BCHL Marc Cheverie from Nanaimo.Maybe we will here about some verbals before too long ???

Better Friday night than Saturday night; Saturday wasn't exactly good for marketing purposes.
