Re: Show me the money--Players turning pro

Schaus is a great athlete, but I don't think he'll be playing professional soccer.

Also, Barry Goers signed with Las Vegas of the ECHL. Nothing up on their website yet about it yet though.

Heh ... oops.

UMass lost C Casey Wellman (Sophomore) to the Minnesota Wild as well as F James Marcou (junior) and D Matt Irwin (sophomore) to the San Jose Sharks.

As a Wild fan, I would like to thank you for Casey, he seems like he will fit right in, can't wait to see what a full year with him on the ice will be like. He is deffinatly a fast lil ****.

From Tech, we have 2 guys going into ECHL:

Gwilliam has an ATO with the Reading Royals (Toronto and Boston affiliate)

Dobson has an ATO with the Gwinnet Gladiators (Atlanta and Columbus affiliate)

Re: Show me the money--Players turning pro

INCH does not list Marcou and Irwin. Hope it isn't true, for sake of UMass as well as Hockey East because UMass would then loose top 5 scorers.
Player Pos-Yr GP G A Pts
James Marcou F-Jr 36 11 40 51
Casey Wellman F-So 36 23 22 45
Justin Braun D- Sr 36 8 23 31
Will Ortiz F Sr 36 13 13 26
Matthew Irwin D-So 36 7 17 24

Try the link again as Marcou and Irwin are on there.

Significant losses @ both Amherst (graduations and signings) and Lowell (primarily losing Sr. class).

Your welcome I guess. I wish he stuck around another year, but I wish him the best. I'll be rooting for the Wild along with the Kings in the West this year.

According to the Globe, Colborne and Kampfer will sign with the Bruins when they are eliminated from the NCAAs or their season ends.

Re: Show me the money--Players turning pro

I talked with Bob McKenzie at the ECAC tourney, and he said Mike (St. Lawrence) was going to be reporting to Albany (AHL) this week sometime on an ATO. He has attended their summer camp and will be attending their training camp again this summer.

Petry straight to the Oilers?

Straight off the Oilers' "Down the Pipeline" blog -

I'm told that negotiations have been proceeding well and that the theme of the talks may be "compromise"; each side has had to be flexible over certain issues.

The end result? I get the impression that not only will a deal happen but it could be sooner rather than later - and that (junior Michigan State defenseman Jeff) Petry might not be headed to Springfield. With the blueline injuries the Oilers are facing, once signed, Petry may report directly to Edmonton and perhaps as early as this weekend.

Re: Show me the money--Players turning pro

Now that we are getting down to the F4 (after this afternoon) any more rumors on additional signings?

Re: Show me the money--Players turning pro

Hopefully Cornell's Scrivens (senior) will get an opportunity. Have not heard of any goalies considering leaving early.
