This Kerdiles thing has me lurking on USCHO in addition to blogs/news for the first time in awhile. Where's the freaking decision?!

Kerdiles on conference call with his family... is he staying or going?

I was a bit confused by that as it doesn't seem to clearly say, but later the post says:

I'd be remiss if I didn't applaud the mature decision of Kerdiles to stay in school. Knowing that he had an option to leave Wisconsin to go to Kelowna and play immediately, but stayed, has to make you respect the kid even more.

So I guess he's staying?

I think that's congratulating him for not leaving immediately upon word of the suspension.

and now Baggot has an article saying the suspension is 8 games and Kerdiles can start playing 11-23, 11-24

bigus and I were debating that wording too- I'm not totally sure.

I think maybe the math on the suspension is 30% = 10 or 11 games; if rounded down to 10, and 2 are served, 10-2=8 more games.

gotcha, well if that's correct then (8 games to go) I would think Kerdiles stays, I mean that's just 4 weeks away, he's waited 2 1/2 years to play @ UW, what's 4 more weeks?

Lot of posts here, but I'm told it's 30% of the season which is 10.8 games. I'm assuming he would have to sit out 11? That's not clear right now. Either way that puts him back for sometime during the Denver series. Kerdiles IS EXPECTED TO STAY.

Hope that helps.

Edit: May have jumped the gun on Kerdiles staying for sure. Apparently that decision isn't final.

If you are correct, that would be the best case senario

I literally just walked by nic kerdiles @ the women's game. I didn't invade his personal space though because I don't do that.

UW statement says he's exploring his options... http://www.uwbadgers.com/sports/m-ho...101912aad.html

It's only a month, but I don't think that's short enough for him to stay.

I'll be happy to be wrong, though.

Boring game. Women's team is rebuilding.

While I have my quibbles, I like the place.

Burish, Gilbert and Patrick Johnson were there along with a bunch of the old farts like Vincent, Tancill and Richter.

Haven't "seen" you in long while, welcome back loyal Bucky fan! Still screaming "DIE!" at the hockey games?

If Kerdiles leaves with only a 10 game suspension, then I'd question all these reports about what a high character guy he is. 10 games is nothing in the big picture. I don't doubt his character, he's staying.

LaBahn is cool, but the seating is mega cramped.

Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

I had to tone it down a bit when we moved to old people seats, but I'm still at (almost*) every game.

I am hopeful about Kerdiles, but wary of the pressure an NHL team could put on a kid if they think Kelowna is better for his development given the suspension. Hopefully, his family's behind him and if he wants to be a Badger he tells the (stupid, not playing right now anyway) NHL to hold their **** horses and let him do college. I also hope they dump that stupid advisor, since it would appear his advise does not line up with the goal of playing college hockey.

We'll be checking out LaBahn on Sunday, looking forward to it!

*Stupid friends of ours got married during the rodent series last year; fortunately, the bride was happy enough we showed up to overlook my spending a large portion of the reception at the bar down the street watching the game on tv. That was the Friday game we won, so I ran around the reception demanding high fives, then threw up in the bathroom because we drank a LOT. This is why no one who wants a classy wedding should make me attend.
