    As we all know Stutzle's current plans involve a year with Sioux City in the USHL and then UNH. Though his development timeline continues to speed up rapidly...
    One hopes Coach Souza and his staff keep in touch regularly, and don't let this kid pull a Commesso on them.

    All the more reason to hope UNH's D-1 profile is on the rise soon, as I'm sure the vultures will be circling ...

      Engaras - on campus, and considered talented. The NCAA has made some sort of ruling about how long he needs to sit... My understanding is UNH thought he would be cleared by now, based on similar previous NCAA decisions.

      Potential appeal in process... Unknown if the NCAA has already decided a final ruling.

                  Stat tables in the blog omit three professional games played in Sweden for Erikkson - all for Leksands in the Allsvenskan, a Swedish minor league. Erikkson had one assist in those three contests...

                  https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/287857/kalle-eriksson

                  The differentiating factor may be that Leksands is Erikkson's hometown team ("100 yards from my home"). So if he had an eye on NCAA Hockey at the time it may have been easy to avoid any payment, and really any expense at all. I guess we'll find out soon.

                  Another good sign is his coming to NA and having months to dive into the process of figuring out eligibility with Omaha - long before choosing UNH. We'll see...

                  ---

                  Regarding Engaras - I'd keep an eye on the Bentley game (first of the second half) or whatever game is the first official contest of the spring semester - if he's not making his debut in one of those two games, I'd suspect the season is in serious jeopardy (which could put an entire UNH career into doubt - certainly if things aren't a 100% locked up clearance for next fall, by the end of this season)...

                    He ain't on campus yet, ya gal-durn fool. Some nimrod at Admissions is gonna screw this up, you just wait! Bumbling morons.....those fools at the Admissions office can't think themselves out of a paper bag. 'Course, other schools seem have this Swede/Dane/Norwegian/Afghani recruiting process down pat, but no, not the naive UNH folks. Shoulda just stuck with the tried and true North Americans....dag nabit all......

                        I still say add three Finns. And, some more Germans and Swedes, along with a few Swiss and Danes. Maybe save a half dozen slots for North Americans.

                            Close enough. :-)

                            Where is the game chatter on our other thread? I got sick and could not get to the Whitt this evening.

                              Nice that they could see an entertaining game with a solid turnout and TV coverage too.
