I saw some Natty swag online that was did not appear to be directly related to Bucky's Lockeroom. Maybe some likeness and image merchandise? The more I look it's everywhere. Coolio.

Bucky's Locker Room and University Bookstore are different companies/organizations, and so often have different stuff. But yeah, there could be NIL stuff out there as well.

Question for TimothyA specifically, or any other BADger supporters who follow the men's program. Are you pleased with the choice of a new head coach?

Seems like one heck of a hire to me.

Actually, it looks like he talked about this in the Yuckeye thread...

Seems like a home run hire as Hastings has a great track record. Of course I thought Granato was a great hire too.

Happy that they went outside the Badger hockey family for the 1st time. While Steve Rohlik has done a good job at OSU, I don’t think that would have generated the buzz that I think the Hastings hire has.

Yeah, it's a slam dunk, 3 period natural hatty, 60 sog shutout, Melvin Gordon vs Nebraska hire. I could not be more pleased, I feel like UW won some sort of title. That kind of buzz.

Wow. We're talking the big barrel of thinner.

Hmmm, they have an penchant for doing that, just when they're trying to get sober.

Yeah it doesn't work so guud.

I was poking around the interweb trying to find info on incoming Fr F Bella Vasseur, the only Fr. player who was not on the Canadian or US U18 last year and I found this very interesting article I must have missed last year as I don't recall reading it. The recruiting philosophy was especially interesting.

Can't get behind the paywall here. Could you summarize? Thanks!

Well, she has two goals in pool play for BK Selects at Girls U19 Nationals this week. Can't argue with the BK Selects pipeline which provided Harvey, Edwards, Simms, and will provide Vasseur, MacNaughton, and Finley McCarthy.

No you can't, It's just crazy that school won't post any statistics.

No you can't, It's just crazy that's school won't post any statistics.

I found them on the tournament page: https://nationals.usahockey.com/2023girlstieri19u

Lots of future Badgers in the tournament: Cassie Hall, Kelly Gorbatenko, Laney Potter, Bella Vasseur, and Ava MacNaughton and then Finley McCarthy and Maggie Scannell as future commits.

What a great website, thanks for the link! Turns out Vasseur is rather good at hockey, shocking!

Scannel putting up big numbers for being a younger player.

What stood out to me was JJ opting for the old farts playing D and not playing KK. I think she ended up exceeding my lofty expectations for this season. That shot in OT against the rodents will live in my head forever, just like "the save" will. It also helps blot out the goal the rodents scored on ARD in OT in the semi's, was that in 2016? I still don't know how that goal went in. Anyway, ancient history. If you think about it, the gap between Olympic and non-Olympic players these days is razor thin. The UW Olympians didn't really jump out vs the non-Olympians.
