Can't find a link yet but ABC 10 just shared that Atte Tolvanen is participating in Nashville Predators development camp this week.

He is. Preds Manager of Hockey Ops Brandon Walker tells me Atte has "been pretty good," so far in camp.
 
Re: Northern Michigan University 2017 Off-Season. Zihuatanejo.

Quick question, Atte is paying his own way through rookie camp, yes?


Because if not he's either violating NCAA rules or he just left early to be the Milwaukee Admirals goalie.

Being that we've had many players go through these camps and not had a problem and our new coach has had dozens go to the camps from Minnesota, I'd say that the chances there is anything problematic are quite slim.

If Tolvanen plays the whole season like he played the second half last year, this will be his last year in Marquette and NMU could make a big jump in the standings.

Agreed. NMU is poised to make a substantial leap if AT plays well.

If true, sounds like a bit of gamble both for the kid and the coaching staff at NMU. Going straight from Michigan HS hockey to Div 1 hockey with no junior hockey experience in between? Even Justin Abdelkader played a year in the USHL (after high school hockey) before going to MSU.

MTU & NMU Hockey New Head Coaching Deals????

Joe Shawhan's deal with MTU is (4-years @ $210K per year = $840K) while Grant Potulny's deal with NMU is (5-years @ $196K per year = $980K)

I think MTU's Mel Pearson was @ $285K per year and NMU's Walt Kyle was @ $185K per year....

Not sure about the MTU & NMU assistant salaries.... If anyone knows please post....
 
Re: Northern Michigan University 2017 Off-Season. Zihuatanejo.

Freshman Forward Jacob Crespi (6'1" 190lbs) - Brighton, MI - "2017 Michigan Mr. Hockey" is no longer listed as an incoming member of the 2017-18 NMU Hockey team on the NMU website.... Not sure what's going on with this????
 
Really liked what I heard from the Potulny forum today. Talked about not doing two-for-ones and getting MSU OSU, and Minnesota to the BEC on fair deals. Saying he's not afraid to play the Big Ten teams. Also talked about speed and how this will be an exciting team.

I was there too and also liked what I heard. Don't know how he will pull off one for one deals but I hope it works out.
