I would have loved to play an NCHC opponent (ex. Denver), but essentially playing a limited HE schedule helps in the pairwise.
They will potentially play one if they meet ASU in the ice breaker tournament second game.

I think that’s bold assertion… I’ve seen him play. Maybe on par with our top guys… but he a bit shaky in d zone.Gilson is a good get. He would have been one of our best Dmen this season if he was on our roster. Otherwise we haven't done anything to upgrade the bottom 6 up front.

True but I still don't consider them NCHC at this point. We loved the trip to UND in 2023. Hell, even Omaha would be a good trip to see someplace new.They will potentially play one if they meet ASU in the ice breaker tournament second game.
He should get a lot of playing time there. Only 3 wins last season. 3-28-3 overall. A lot of the conference games were closer than I expected. I guess it was a down year for the NCHC outside of the 2 top teams.Ryan Smith is transferring to Miami of Ohio
Why don't you consider ASU to be part of NCHC?True but I still don't consider them NCHC at this point. We loved the trip to UND in 2023. Hell, even Omaha would be a good trip to see someplace new.
Still too new to the conference and an outlier geographically...they are growing as a program but I seem to recall they wanted to be part of the B1G prior. Seems like they would leave if another opportunity popped up...but they are in the best conference.Why don't you consider ASU to be part of NCHC?
I give UND credit. Came to Hamden in 2021...we went out there in 2022. They played at Cornell last year and now Clarkson this year. I wish more NCHC teams would come east.Clarkson released its full 2025-26 schedule this week and it's pretty good:
2 at Penn State
2 at home vs. North Dakota
home vs Lake Superior State
home vs. Michigan Tech
Lowell & Fairbanks in Lake Placid (Adirondack Festival)
home and home vs. RIT
at Canisius
at Niagara
We see Clarkson at home on 11/21 and then travel to Potsdam 1/31.

Should be interesting... lots of RD depth on the team. Leddy, Gilson, McCutcheon, Hockley, Blace, Tobey (is he coming?). I think Leddy and Gilson have proven their NCAA chops. Will be a dogfight to see who gets regular shifts from the rest. Hockley and Blace both need to shore up their defense to play regular shifts and was not impressed with Hockley on PP #1 when Bohlinger was out. Think Gilson or McCutcheon could fill that need better. Leddy is great on the PK so maybe McCutcheon could be PK #2 for RHD.
I saw this in the CHL thread as well. Hopefully he can help at forward.
Thanks for sharing. He looks like he will fit right in.

Nice from the video he appears to be a player who is not afraid to drive to the net. Can't wait to see him here in HamdenAntonin Verreault(Robyn-Noranda(QMJHL)), 7/28/04, LW, NZ 4.25, 5’8″, 160 lbs, highly skilled, incredibly fast, great release, high compete level, dangerous player, distributes pucks efficiently and effectively, high hockey IQ
