This was tweet from Roth today. I think he will be staying in Warroad not going to the USHL. I think you jumped the gun on including him on your list. could be wrong but looks like he will be staying in Warroad.

Swaney and Bellows will both be back with there high school teams. Bellows is doing before and after and Swaney will ride the "Elite" league into the HS season. Oh and being on a NAHL protected roster at this point means absolutely nothing. USHL trickle down and changes early on will leave plenty of kids behind and lost. The only thing that means anything IMO is a tender in the USHL where a kid needs to dress for so many games.

Most of them have already graduated.

I'll adjust Swaney after he starts Elite League and misses his first USHL preseason game. I'll adjust Bellows as soon as he misses his first USHL game. I feel like he could still be convinced.

Also - Blake Lizotte from Chisago lakes protected by Minot..[/quote]


I assume he won't do the before and after, correct? Most NA guys would be full-season guys?

Pretty sure thats the case. I didn't see him listed on any Elite league roster, unless I over-looked. But I think most guys from non-traditional hockey"powerhouses" would be gone, gone. Once they made a NA team

Swaney is playing in the Elite League, so he can be struck from the list.

Anyone with a status update on Zimmer and Zuhlsdorf?

I know. I was referring to the Exiled One's initial list, which still has Swaney leaving. To my knowledge, Zimmer and Zuhlsdorf haven't been playing in the Elite League this season.

Zimmer is playing with the Blades, and doing a few USHL games. And Zuhlsdorf is in Sioux City, doing a before and after.

Great, thanks.

Less than 2 months to go until practice, so I can probably get started on preseason rankings. :lol:

Saw Zimmer on the Steel's 23 man roster. Could he be there for the season or just before and after?

Interesting. I think Prince George may have his rights. I'll keep an eye on that.

I know he thinks of himself as Canadian, so this wouldn't be inconceivable. Also, if he wants to play for Team Canada, they tend to discount kids on the college path.

Nor Warroad.


If so, that is.
