Re: Ryder Donovan to Wisconsin
Just for the record... Mittelstadt did play juniors at Green Bay. Just not a full time schedule.

Re: Any Centennial Curmudgeons on here? (Lucas McGregor)
McGregor was going to be traded from Sioux Falls. He didn't like that option so he quit. Literally packed up and quit on the spot and said he's done playing hockey. This all happened before anything was pulled by the U. Which is why the remarks of some on here are laughable. Of course, college loya...

The recruits don't abide by a gentlemen's agreement. If they're not satisfied with the school they committed to, they're free to talk with any school they like. The benefit to them is that they're not getting harassed to the point of second-guessing themselves. The recruits don't have to abide by i...

My point is, it's disingenuous of Lucia to call for the end of the GA and also acknowledge it has value. Every Minnesotan who isn't a Gopher fan knows that Lucia is just bitter that other local college programs sometimes gamble on in-state recruits and sometimes land blue chippers. He thinks the Go...

That's not true. Mike Eaves was an over-recruiter and it ultimately cost him his job. You can only delay or rescind offers so many times before it comes back to bite you in the end. Eaves lost his job because he wasn't very well liked (which had built up over the years) and he did a poor job of hir...

Yes Tony did play for the Gophers while Mario attended Notre Dame. In Mario's first year at Notre Dame he was a top 6 forward and powerplay guy as a freshman. If he were to come to Minnesota and play that role people would be up in arms saying that he's only playing that much because his dad is the...

If my kid were D1 capable, I'd much rather he play for a SCSU, UND, UMD, UNO, etc. I'm within driving distance of most games. If he goes to the U, I can't or it would be a much larger issue for me. This reasoning may factor into the equation also. 27 of Minnesota's 37 total games were played in MN ...

Re: Brinkman to Gophers
Another early commit yet to play a high school game? Congratulations to the kid that will be a good player. Wonder how much younger the Gophers are going to go. #desperateDon :oops: I wouldn't call it desperate considering the list of options the kid had. If the Gopher coach didn't land a player li...

I believe the issue is age differential and safety. If that is the B10 and some of the power program reasoning, it shouldn't make a difference if it is a top prospect or adviser driven. Since the acceleration is less common and effects less players, common sense would say to change the rule for the...

Going the other way on this age issue. If the B10 and a few other top programs are worried about the age differential, why do they encourage players to accelerate their HS education so they can start their college career earlier, and in most cases as a 17 yr old? It's not like acceleration at 17 is...

Delaying isn't their choice... but it doesn't stop them from doing it, right? They do what they have to. Same as leaving a year sooner w/o a degree to keep playing elsewhere isn't going to stop them. The goal may be a degree but there is also a small window of time to make money playing the game if ...

Not sure what you meant about chasing money? I don't think any 24 who wants to continue playing in the minors or over seas is really chasing money, plus they will have a degree in hand. I would guess that most of these players are delaying their education, hoping to get some financial aid and playi...

When you're 25 years old it's past time to move on and get your life underway. You should no longer be an undergrad in college going to school with 18 year olds. If you're still living the dream of making it in the NHL you should be living it in the minor leagues, which would be better preparation ...

The difference is you can't argue my examples are wrong. If you could, you would. The case makes itself. Arguing with you is fruitless because you've never conceded an obvious fact in your life. You have the maroonest and goldest goggles in Minnesota. As I said... You can't dismiss what I said with...

The difference is you can't argue my examples are wrong. If you could, you would. Instead the response is just conjecture. You can venture the opinion but it rings very hollow when the players you claim will get more pressure are not the same types of players affected by this proposed rule. Not to m...

Re: NCAA Age Restriction Proposal
Sorry TEO but the nature of your remarks are (at best) a stretch with regard to the impact on HS hockey. The types of elite guys in MN HS hockey that currently leave (or be at greater risk for leaving) are not the same guys that tend to enter into college after 20 years old... nor will this potenti...

Re: Gophers 2015 - 2016
Top 10 questions include: 1. Who will be the starting goalie? In prior seasons when there hasn't been a clear cut returning #1 goalie, they tend to alternate starts early on and let their play dictate who earns the job. I think Schierhorn will be the guy will take the job in time. He had an excelle...
