heisenberg thinks very highly of this kid

North Dakota got a huge commitment from Edina defeneseman Joe Gleason. Gleason is very fast and loves to rush the puck up the ice. I think he's got a world of talent.

Wasn't watching for him the other night when they played. Was checking out that sophomore line. Maybe this signing will create a bit of a pipeline.

didnt joe finley come from edina?

Yup, but I think this kid would've been a freshman when Joe was a senior. So probably not a ton of interaction. But maybe Joe was a factor.

I'm suprised Chris didn't correct you, but that is not Heisenberg's blog. :lol:

I thought Joe spent his senior season skating for for the Fighting Sioux?

Yes he did, im sure he meant his last season at edina...

Great pickup, this kid can really fly. He was putting on a skating clinic at the State Tournament against Grand Rapids. It is VERY likely that Joe will be a 2009.

Gleason is pretty much the exact opposite style player of Finley. Good to see Edina's producing all types of defensemen.

Quick scouting report for Sioux fans: very fast, very quick, very good shot. Still a bit raw defensively....is a much more offensive type defenseman. With a defensive type player, that can be hidden a bit.

I figured he'd be much more suited in a Minnesota, St. Cloud, or Colorado College style. But it's a good pickup for the Sioux. He'll be good and his speed will cause nightmares for WCHA defensemen.

As for Budish, Minnesota has the same thing going for them that North Dakota does with Ness: dad was a former U athlete (football letterwinner). If I had to guess, I'd bet Budish will be Minnesota bound, but nothing to base that on other than a hunch.

Good pickup for the Sioux....I won't like watching him play against the Gophers much.

What I find exciting about this is that after watching Genoway skate this last weekend, you forget how much a mobile defensman can add to transition. We do not have a defensive recruit right now that doesn't have offensive upside (I guess I'm not sure about Marto). LaPoint, Blood, and Gleason are all good offensive players. It's still nice to have a Smaby, Green, Commodore, or Finley around though.
