It looked like Danny Mattson banged up his right shoulder today at the NIT. It wasn't dangling too low, but I didn't see him move it much, and he went right from the bench to the lockerroom(though it was fairly late in the game when it happened). Hopefully he's ok.

Ben Blood article

That was an impressive article, the kids sounds focused.

Man what a name for hockey: BLOOD... Yikes...

[USA Hockey]

Danny Kristo and the NTDP 18U team will be playing in the Four Nations Tournament in Switzerland starting on Tuesday, you can follow the results of the tournament here.

McKeen's released their list of the 1st round draft prospects.

take note of Toews at 16. also, DU's Joe Colborne keeps chuggin' along...hes up to 12th on their list. wow.

[USA Hockey]

Hextall had an assist in today's 3-1 win for Canada West against Germany. As for the USA today, a 2-0 loss to Belarus isn't exactly a great start to the tournament.

[USA Hockey]

Oops, my bad, these games are in progress and not completed yet, you can follow the live stats by the link I provided above.

[rochsioux]

USA wins 7-6 in ot, winning goal scored with 5 secs left.

Blood with 1g, 1a.

Canada wins 7-2.

Hextall with 1g, 1a.

Eidsness plays periods 1 & 2 and 6 min of 3rd, allows 1 goal.

[USA Hockey]

Kristo had a goal in last nights 2-0 win over Switzerland. They will play Sweeden tommorow, you can follow the live stats from the link above.

[USA Hockey]

The US defeated Canada East 3-2 in overtime in the World Junior A Challenge yesterday. Team Canada West lost to Russia 4-2. None of our players had any points for either team. The US will play on Saturday against the winner of tommorow nights game with Canada West and Belarus. If Canada West wins, we could have four recruits playing in one game.

[USA Hockey]

I will be in Madison this weekend for the games so I'm not going to be updating the two tournaments that our recruits are participating in this weekend. Both the links should work for live stats. Also, the championship game for the World Junior A Championship should be on TSN on Sunday if anyone gets that. Besides the standard junior schedules, there isn't much else going on because Shattuck is off, the Elite League is done, and high school hasn't started yet. If anyone in the area wants to go check a potential player out, they can check out Dakota Collins of the F-M Jets, who play two home games on Friday and Saturday night.

Bradley Eidsness helped lead Canada West to a 5-1 victory over USA stopping 30 of 31 shots and this eveing they will face Canada East in the Gold Medal game.

Cichy scored the only goal on him good to see them both do good.

Cichy scored the only goal on him good to see them both do good.

And Ben Blood had two assists as team USA beat the Russians 9-6 to take the Bronze medal.

There were two players from the Russell Stover Midget Major team on a recruiting visit to the Kohl Center this weekend. I think it was unofficial, although they were talking with Eades after the game. Their names were Scott Winkler and Garrett Clarke. The Winkler kid is huge and he's a '94 out of Norway. He's around 6'1" or 6'2" and 13 yrs old. Clarke wasn't as big and is a '92. Winkler is listed as a forward on the site but the coach said UND is looking at him as a defenseman I believe. Interesting...

[siouxhockeyfan11]

I thought that coaches usualy bring kids to UND for campus visits not to opposing teams arenas..

We'll actually get a chance to see these guys as they will be up here for the Midget Major Classic in January. They're on a good team, last time I looked Russell Stover was the number 1 team in the nation.

The early signing period starts tommorow and runs through the 21st. I don't think there will be any surprises unless there is a commitment right beforehand.
