Re: 2016-2017 Division I Commitments

Holy moly! They went out of state for a player (and worse out of country)!!! I thought that was against the U of M rules or code or something. There must be an uproar in the state of hockey

when they hired the original women's coach, she explicitly stated, and got the AD's blessing, to go after out of state and out of country players

every coach of the men's team except one has brought in non Minnesotans to augment the team, the "rule" had it's purpose back in the 60', 70's, and early 80's, but only a minority of fans believe it is still in place

the three Canadians that just graduated.

...and Frost got a small amount of crap when it was originally learned they were coming, but nobody complained once they were here

Gulstene is from Washington.

Someone should tell USA Hockey. They have her listed as being from Evanston, although they list her school as being in Vancouver: http://www.usahockeygoaltending.com/...0?referrer_id=

Lives and goes to school Vancouver,BC not Vancouver, WA. I'm guessing Evanston is her place of birth.

Thanks for the clarification! Of course, once she puts on that Gopher jersey, she will be a claimed as a Minnesotan by all of us.

USA Hockey has a nasty habit of using your current mailing address as your hometown.

Hmmmm...time to take out the I-94 Interstate bridge?

At least the west bound lanes, of course no one from WI has any interest in going west on 94 anyway, so it would just be a waste of money......

We'll just either re-direct them north on 35 and pick them up in Superior or south on 90 and get them in LaCrosse.

I think there are a few more bridges than that, w/o subjecting them to what lurks in Duluth.

Yeah. I think they'd be a lot safer sending them south on I-35 and then east on 90.

tell that to all the people in western CheeseLand that work in the TC metro area, or work in western WI and their job exists because of the TC metro area

if not for that they'd be farm hands shoveling manure or waiting tables on people vacationing from MN & IL
