2018-2019 Division I Commitments

Re: 2018-2019 Division I Commitments

And while we're throwing out cockamamie ideas, there should be a rule that no team can have more than two Canadians on their roster at any one time. I will bet you the vast majority of coaches (well maybe not Clarkson :rolleyes: ) would support this.

There will be NO messing with our Canadian Gals. ;)

I just wish that a few of those great Clarkson recruits over the years had been able to make it about 4 hrs further south. However, it may be a bit of poetic justice that one of RPI's top recruits for next year is a NY state girl from Clarkson's back yard.
 
From Iceburg on GPL

2018
D Crystalyn Hengler (Eden Prairie)
F Emily Oden (Edina)
D Gracie Ostertag (Shattuck 16u) from Shakopee
F Catie Skaja (New Prague)


Holy crap...The Gophers have 13 U18 recruits from the US and Canada coming in the next three years with Oden's commitment. All ten recruits for 2017 and 2018 are U18 players :eek:

That is some crazy roster stashing stuff right there. ;)

Remember - the head coach is a Uof M asst......

This may be rehashing Minnesota HS Hockey, but how does somebody from Somerset, WI play for Hill-Murray?
 
Re: 2018-2019 Division I Commitments

MINNESOTA STATE

Brooke Bryant......F......California Wave......Stockton, CA
Abigail Levy.........G......Shattuck...............NY

Minnesota State stepping up the recruiting and picking up some good talent from out of state.

There's a contagious disease out there, better call the CDC.
It's a smart move for a player of any promise and in reasonable proximity. Better development prospects than with the hometown team and their competition.
 
Re: 2018-2019 Division I Commitments

a few people ( mostly elsewhere) have predicted the death MN HS hockey due to the best players leaving, but the truth is MN HS hockey is robbing players from other states, how many kids from ND & WI play in MN? and if the kid plays in MN, it isn't likely the father or mother is volunteering their services to their local team, a double loss.

Being totally objective, I agree 100%. WI high school hockey is not anywhere near the level to our old Union neighbors to the west and I would blame anyone who goes there. Just don't contract that disease and end up wearing urine and maroon colored jerseys.
 
Re: 2018-2019 Division I Commitments

She may view Amanda Kessel as having blazed a trail from Wisconsin to Ridder Arena. Any other prospects we should be looking at?

We as in the Gophers or we as fans?

2 come to mind that the Gophers should be interested in.

Madeline Wethington - D Blake 2000 birthdate - Has the size and skating ability that the Gopher staff likes.
Makenna Webster - F SSM U16 2002 birthdate - Just turned 14 in March and is already an elite player.

Wethington plays for Blake, the Breck girl to watch closely is 2001 birth year forward Sydney Breza.

Aren't we supposed to keep these a secret so Frost can stash them away, shackle them...prevent them from landing on opponent rosters, despite having no plans to let them play?

Shhhhh...

I agree on what I have seen so far with Breza. If you want to watch Syd Breza this year you will have to do so at Shattuck-St. Mary's it sounds like.
Webster is probably the fastest, smartest, skilled 2002 forward in North America. Future USA Hockey Star for sure!
Wethington has to be the top rated 2019 grad D.
None of these 3 are in anyway a secret to the Top D1 programs.

Thanks for the correction, Wethington also has U18 experience as has been pointed out by folks like yourself in previous posts.
 
Re: 2018-2019 Division I Commitments

Drama taking place at U of Missouri softball. Players complaining of lack of playing time. Other players defending the coach saying the roster was expanded for non-softball reason-i.e. coach was forced to by Mizzou admin for Title IX compliance reasons. Otherwise some players wouldn't be on the roster.
