    Well, getting a little NHL experience would be helpful in becoming a head coach, no?

      Personal opiniom, not based om fact, think Gwoz would prefer a college post and he woud just let DU pay him to sit idle. BUT it can't hurt to have NHL experience.

      Matt Carle didn't have a great year last season (the team did suck) and if Carle's play improves exponientally, that would certainly be a big feather in his cap.

        Will Butcher — D — Though his defense is still coming along, Butcher’s puck-moving game is looking as good as ever in this camp. He’s strong on the power play and he reads the offensive zone really well. Butcher has good speed and his distribution is solid. He’s making better decisions with the puck and taking fewer unnecessary risks. I think he could carve a spot for himself as the team’s seventh defenseman, but he played top-pairing minutes today and looked just fine.

        I think the players scratched today, with the exception of maybe Quentin Shore and possibly Stefan Matteau are virtual locks to make the team. That offered the staff a chance to get more evals on guys who needed it. I think we’ll see the players that had the best camp get rewarded with spots in the game against Canada, which should include many of the strongest candidates to make the final roster.

        Personally, I think Q will be more like Drew than Nick. But in either case that's worth 40+ points this season.

            Just got back from meet and greet. Nice event. Jim showed up and made his way through the crowd and made sure to talk to everyone. I didn't know anyone there but got to sit with a nice guy that turned out to be the team doctor from back in the early '70's and has been a season ticket holder forever. When Jim made his way over to us the ex-team doctor asked him about his recruiting philosophy (particularly being interested in his views on recruiting blue chip 1-2 year players vs. 4 year guys). Jim basically said that recruiting is all about balance and he's gonna recruit great guys from great families that will be great fits on the team. Some will be 1-2 year guys and some will be 4 year guys. Speaking of 4/5 year guys, Yellow Truck showed up at the event too.

            All in all, it was a nice event and I left excited for the upcoming season and our new coach. Also, I could be wrong, but based on the 10 min conversation I don't foresee as much "Gwoz-speak" in the post game interviews with Jay.

              DU's Mascot Steering Committee announced the findings of its research on Friday and recommended that none of the considered mascots move forward as they are currently designed.

                Was always amazed Gwoz could say the same thing in multiple post game interviews. Must have something to do wth his diplomat brother.

                And are we surprised that the majority did not like the mascot choices?

                    That's awesome! You guys have fun with that! I still have some of my GI Joes from elementary school in my mom's basement. Sometimes when I go over she lets me play with them, she never lets me play with my sister's dolls... It brings back a lot of memories from the mid 90's...
