    Re: Wisconsin Recruiting Vol. IV - It's all coming together

    A current 20-year-old goalie (who will be a 21-year-old freshman) from the NAHL. Not excited at all.

    Those of you who know me, know my stance on NAHL players on the Badgers. Not knocking the kids personally, they just aren't as talented as Tier 1.

    This signing now has me worried, since Grannon hasn't signed yet and isn't coming. I'll wait to implode if he doesn't come.

      What lakes? I've spent some time up there this winter (my brother lives in Conover Township). Lots of snow this year.

        This is not a goalie they're expecting to play much.

        I'm not a big fan of NAHL players (less concerned about goalies), but we have one that played a year in NA after HS and has more conference points in the same amount of games as your 5th overall draft pick.

          Grannon is scheduled for 21-22 or 22-23 based on what Todd M is saying.

            Likely the plan is that he’s a Mitch Thompson, Ryan Jeffrey type.

            An emergency goalie that happens to be rostered.
            If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

            BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!

            At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

            Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

              Yeah he’s not coming. Book it.

              Unless NTDP goalies are more used to being held back a year in the USHL than the skaters, but I have a hard time picturing a NTDP caliber player that’s just cool with not going straight to college.

              Hopefully it’s fine, but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Grannan pulled a (non-NTDP alums, but still were put in the same position) Montpetit/Wiercioch on us.

                On the other hand, if he's 1 or 2 years out, by then there might be a new head coach AND a goalie coach?

                  I have no idea and you may be right. This signing of Garrity was definitely a surprise to me.

                  If Grannan comes in 21-22 after 1 year in the USHL, we would be carrying 4 goalies for a year with Lebby as a senior and Garrity/Rowe as Sophomores. That just doesn't seem likely to me. Have they had 4 goalies on the roster at one time before?

                  Edit: Grannan is U17 goalie this year, wouldn't he be on the U18 team next year, like Rowe is this year? That makes more sense to me. but still have the 4 goalies for one year issue.

                      Granato wants to cut Lebby. I can feel it in the air.

                      Unless he’s blaming Lebby for the ****ty defense in front of him in quotes as like… gamesmanship or something…

                        If he Jurusik's The Hammer, and then pitches Grannan to the side, I AM DONE UNTIL HE IS GONE.
