Not confirmation of anything, but Koby Bender, Ryan Edquist, Michael Graham, Mitch Mattson, Nick Swaney, and Riley Tufte are all missing from the Elite League rosters.

Most are at least playing before HS Season with their respective USHL team.

Peoples top ten rankings are contained in a different thread, but;
With Zimmer leaving, Wayzata drops out of my top 10 and possibly out of top 15.
With Edquist leaving but Johnson staying, I will drop LVN from #2 to somewhere in the middle of my top 10. Relying on others to comment on LVN upcoming replacement goaltending strength.

Also no Jack Becker.

Nothing set in stone yet with edquist, just as there wasn't with Max but you all seem to have the answers!
Regardless if Eddy leaves or not LN will have a solid stopper. Mark my words.

Word at Pan-O-Prog was, if you cant get the Lakeville South goalie to come North your going to make a big offer to Josh Harding!

Per a Duluth newspaper article about the U-18 USA team now playing in Slovakia, Tufte will start in Fargo but has yet to decide if he will play HS this year.

Brian Hurley STA Jr. D leaving for the Wilderness NAHL, Committed to Ohio State. Sorry if this is old news but a quick read of the thread and I did not see it.

Heard over the weekend about a MN HS Jr going to play Tier III this year and also saw on the other thread about the Grand Rapids kid going to the SIJHL.
Doesn't seem like those moves are tracked as well because they seem to be more under the radar talent level kids but does anyone know how common that is? Is MN HS losing many kids with eligibility to Tier III or Canada Junior A/B yearly? (personally I don't get the point of jumping ship to those leagues while in HS)
BTW, I saw two SIJHL games last year, Minnesota Iron Rangers and Fort Francis. The level of play was good, certainly above 90% of MN HS teams play. I do remember seeing a few 98's on those rosters last winter but don't remember where they were from.

Will Garin has decided to stay at Holy Family for his senior year. He turned down Cedar Rapids in the USHL. He will be playing in the Elite League this fall prior to the High School season. He is a UCONN commit.

Big loss for the Cadets
Big gainback for the Fire
As usual, the top 10 rankings are getting muddier. EP still on top of the pile assuming Graham returns, Edina lurking close behind , after that a lot of contenders for the remaining 8.

You don't think Shattuck North/West Farmington doesn't have a back-up plan?

Here's the story from hockey hub on it
http://www.mnhockeyhub.com/news_article/show/548093
I like this quote from Coach Eigner about replacing Edquist after it was noted that both returning goalies played exclusively on JV last year. " Just like Jake Oettinger and Ryan Edquist were interested in our program, it wouldn't surprise me if there is interest out there"

From a hockey hub article on Edquist leaving
"Eigner said he wouldn’t be surprised to see another goaltender join the mix.
“Just like Jake Oettinger and Ryan Edquist were interested in our program, it wouldn’t surprise me if there is interest out there,” Eigner said."

Hard to get much more brazen than that. At least the other recruiting programs have learned to use filters.
Edquist's departure is zero surprise to anyone who'd been following that story.

What's funny is you karl, just like everyone else on here assuming, really knows NOTHING about the details of Edquist and this "decision".
"Other recruiting programs"?! I Forgot your beloved DE is the model for integrity.
Best of luck Ryan. First class kid.
Now let's assume old Sats is the best GM in HS hockey and will find his replacement quickly....that Kolquist kid have any HS eligibility left?
