Im hearing there down to 26 players now. Someones having surgery and out for the year to save eligibility. Im still trying to confirm this and who it actually is.

I believe it was defenseman Tyler Krueger...

I'd noticed the high sweater #'s as well Wormser, but the last time we had a lot of guys sporting digits like that, we had some good teams... 1998/1999 etc.


I like the mix of size and returning guys from last year. I am still looking for more info on some of the new players in at Point.

Puck drops tomorrow. sweet!

Beckfeld is one of the founders and owners of Sauce Hockey. He’s a slick dangling center with a “do whatever it takes” attitude who isn’t afraid to get his nose dirty or drop the mitts if needed. This guy would go toe to toe with freakin Boogarrd if it was what the team needed, and he’d wake up in the hospital still talking trash. Then the next time he hits the ice he might dangle through your whole team and put a snipe bar down for a Gee Dub. That’s just the kind of player and guy he is. After his almost half a decade with Cedar Rapids, Beckfeld committed to D III powerhouse University of Wisconsin Stevens Point where he captained the squad his junior and senior seasons. After a point packed career at Point he signed a contract this past summer with Stjernen in the Norwegian Elite League. He resides in Plymouth in the offseason where he trains and skates and puts in a lot of time with the local high school summer training programs. He’s worked long and hard to get where he is and is definitely a guy you want on your bench when the team needs a goal or the game gets ugly. Either way Becks is going to show up.

The series win at Stout was a big turning point for the team. So now its on the Norberts to continue the playoff run... Point will need more than the 1 or 2 goals they've been getting a game from the offense to get a win there. It is good to see the guys you would expect to score the big clutch goals scoring the big clutch goals right now though.

Regardless of what happens at SNC, I think the momentum from that the two OT wins will propel this team into next season.

Speer quit the team this last week, and as far as I'm concerned, good riddance. He over committed to one side game in and game out for the last season and a half, and could never get over to make the back door save, plus he repeatedly let weak first shot goals in.

Graves looks as though he's the real deal. In his first few starts he was a little shaky but he is a freshman. These last 4-5 weeks though, he has really turned it on. Since the beginning of the second half(Jan 2-forward) he has a 2.18 GAA, and a .931 sv % in his 11 starts. And a handful of those saves have been absolute game savers.

Speer, and I believe Alan Armour(3rd string goalie) left. That's it.

Thanks. I know he didn't play, but wasn't sure if he was injured or what.

Thanks, I heard it was just those 3 guys but just wondering if anyone else had left during the season.
