Re: Northeastern Huskies 2014-15: Release the Hounds!
Let me help.
If you look at a forwards stats and they have 20 goals in 15 games, good chance they will be able to score goals in college. If a forward has 2 goals in 15 games, chances are they will not be an offensive force when they get here. We knew Kevin Roy could score because he did prior to coming here in a good league. We knew that Tanner Pond was not going to score here because he did not in the same league Roy came from. Instead Tanner had "other intangibles".
For dmen - I find the stats to not tell the whole story on if a kid will be able to handle the position here. So a kid who might have gone for 2-10-12 in 30 games, may actually be the better d prospect then a kid in the same league who goes 10-10-20 in 30 games.
As for getting kids to come here who commit here first, it matters to me. I like the idea our guys can find the good kids early and bring them in.
