Kessel too...as expected by all GWH fans I'm sure. Now this GWH fan merely hopes #8 doesn't go Wendell / Darwitz on us...aside from wishing her and the US squad complete success in the coming Olympiad.
As you say, I'd bet the interest in Miss Dunne is fairly widespread among D-I coaching staffs. All I've heard is her own interest is Crimson colored. Perhaps she'll see the light...
That's tongue in cheek Crimson fans, and all others concerned.
There wasn't anything in her comments after the final to suggest she wasn't planning to return. To paraphrase, she said something along the lines of it is sad to think about not playing with some of the team's seniors again. What likely didn't occur to her at the time is that she most likely won't be playing with the members of her class again either. If she makes an Olympic team and they do not and stay healthy, then Brausen, Davis, Gillanders and Terry will have graduated by 2014-15. While I think both Davis and Terry are capable of playing internationally, cracking a deep Canadian roster figures to be tough.

Outstanding! Southpaws rule BTW.
I was under the impression this thread would suffice for the off-season. I think that's makes some sense. I'm easily confused between multiple Gopher threads. A new thread works too.
Assuming that #8 is the only MN forward heading to Sochi, then I'd say if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Numbers 9, 10, and 22 look to be fairly good options at center. If any of them are gone as well, I'd guess that Cameranesi is a nice option. Brausen has played center. I think that Bona could as well. All of this is hard to do until at least August selections are made, because it turns into a lot of ifs.
Pick away. In 2011-12, I said the Gophers would win the WCHA season. They didn't. Last year, I said they'd finish second, and they finished first. I also said they would lose at some point. That was also wrong. So I'm just going to keep aiming low, because there is clearly something wrong with my sights.I've got a bone to pick with some estimation...or rankings of current WCHA recruiting classes.
