Re: Minnesota Women's Hockey: Off Season 2010
All things going as planned, the forwards for the 2010-2011 season:
Downey, Samantha, Erickson, Sarah, West, Emily, Schoullis, Jen, Frischmann, Katie, (F/D), Kortum, Becky, Ludwigson, Nikki, May, Laura, Rasmussen, Terra, Bethany Brausen, Sarah Davis, Amanda Kessel, Kelly Terry, Elizabeth Turgeon.
The defenders:
Schleper, Anne, Bozek, Megan, Jalosuo, Mira, Seeler, Kelly & Bayley Gillanders.
The goaltenders:
Grogan, Alyssa, Lura Jenny, & Noora Raty.
It's been awhile and my memory is a little clouded...but I think it was the inaugural IIHF World Women's U18 tournament when Sarah E. and Miss Kessel spent some time as linemates and it looked as though they shared a nice little chemistry. The webstream of that competition the only opportunity I've had to watch Miss Kessel play to date...I thought I saw something good there. I'll just toss that out and leave it there for any potential line combo discussion...which could be extensive given the group of forwards, possibly even sufficiently daunting to wanna leave it to those who get paid to come up with the winning formula. It's a team aspect interesting to ponder and muse over the summer months anyway.
I will say...it will be great to have #24 back on the ice. A player that adds a healthy dose of grit and toughness up front...along with some scoring punch and great two way play IMO. Her return should create a real opportunity for another line with potential for solid impact. A real potential a team definitely misses without her I think. She was missed in 2009-2010...and will be a big plus in 2010-2011.
Maybe we'll see Katie F. on the blueline some in 2010-2011?
I'd guess the goaltending competion will begin anew when the time comes. I hope there are still three competitors for the ice time.
Long summer...take your time.
Summer...I'm taking some rides with the top down if no one objects...or even if they do. And I certainly do hope things go "as planned."Last edited by brookyone; 04-07-2010, 03:26 PM.Minnesota Hockey

We also look to have a healthy number of left wings. That seems to be the most obvious position for West, May, Rasmussen, and Turgeon. Although Schoullis lined up at RW as a rookie, I'd prefer her at LW if she's not a C; Kortum is probably in the same boat. And if I'm remembering correctly, both Davis and Brausen shoot left as well.
It can obviously play out many different ways, but if I had to pick one player that I expect will wind up playing center, my money would be on Davis. Even though she has played mostly C at the "U", I think Erickson would be a nice scoring threat at RW.

As far as line combinations, other than West likely paired with Erickson on the first unit, it's too early to say, as fun as it may be to speculate! Too many promising new faces coming in, and they all deserve a chance to play their way into the lineup. One thing for sure, there should be a very competitive battle at the forward position to land positions on one of the top three lines. With an extra player or two always there looking for an opportunity, it should keep everyone very motivated to retain their spots.Minnesota Golden Gopher Hockey

Re: Minnesota Women's Hockey: Off Season 2010
I'm assuming there were no 2010-2011 Captains designated at the banquet...and they'll probably be chosen and announced closer to the start of next season. Wasn't it done in similar fashion last year?
Maybe they'll just go with the returning Captains from last season? Any Gopher fans like to see anyone else step into the role of C for the 2010-2011 season?Minnesota Hockey
