That's great! Nick has a lot of family connections to Duluth, so that's a great pick for him (and them).almostashappy wrote:Congratulations to Nick and his family...and good luck to Nick this weekend in Dubuque and Des Moines.Sats81 wrote:Per Over the boards, Eagan Sr D-man Nick Wolff commits to UMD.

Yeah, very good pickup and when he adds a little beef to that big frame is should be a forceThe Exiled One wrote:Great pick up for the Bulldogs. He's a talented kid with a great upside.
He still played quite physically in the Tourney, so the extra muscle will help his hits be even more devastating.BlueLineSpecial wrote:Yeah, very good pickup and when he adds a little beef to that big frame is should be a forceThe Exiled One wrote:Great pick up for the Bulldogs.

I don't follow UMD hockey...how are they set up for year-class d-men? Wondering whether it's more likely he'll spend 1 year in juniors or 2.The Exiled One wrote:Great pick up for the Bulldogs. He's a talented kid with a great upside.
Agreed. He'll quickly add 15 lbs of muscle and then look out. At 6'4" he'll be a specimen and a huge hitter.

I don't follow UMD that closely either (I'm an SCSU fan), but I imagine he'll be evaluated after his first year in juniors to see how he's progressing. He has the ability to skate at the D1 level right now, but he'd get burned so many times defensively that he'd require skin grafts. They'll get that straightened out in the USHL. My guess is that it'll only be one year.almostashappy wrote:I don't follow UMD hockey...how are they set up for year-class d-men?

Scored what turned out to be the game-winning goal in the Buc's first win over Dubuque in three years. He also led the team with a plus/minus of +3, after all of two days practice with his new team.Sats81 wrote:Scored in USHL debut tonight
Who doesn't? Congrats to Wolff who has a heckuvalota upside.Whopper2 wrote:needs to improve his over all game
Very insightful comment!Whopper2 wrote:needs to improve his over all game
He's holding his own. Tough situation to walk into...Des Moines is out of playoffs and they fired the assistant coaches this past week. Still just the one point in 5 games, and he's goat a +/- of -3, but that's over a five game stretch where they've given up 25 goals...only a handful of guys on that roster with a positive +/- on the year.mulefarm wrote:Looks like Nicky is getting into some scraps.
