RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18 (Part III)

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18 (Part III)

Curious what others think of coaches remark about these players being positive and team first. Typical coach speak or perhaps a clue into last years clubs problems.

It could be a clue about his opinion of last season.

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18 (Part III)

On Thursday, Team Red lost to Team Columbia 4-1. Their record is now 1-1. Reid Leibold had no points or penalties. https://teamusa.usahockey.com/tourn...mes/5b2c0904d63f6d38940001fc?referrer=3834345

Leibold’s Select U17 line is now 2-1-0-1-0.


BTW, no more comments about Swankler. https://teamusa.usahockey.com/tourn...mes/5b2c0904d63f6d38940001f0?referrer=3834345 and https://teamusa.usahockey.com/page/show/3834345-2018-boys-select-17-player-development-camp :(

I have assumed that Savory did not play the final 14:04 on 3/28/18.
 
A lengthy article about Jon Bendorf which states among other things that he will stay in Aberdeen and go to RPI in 2019. https://communitynews.org/2018/06/26/jon-bendorf-earns-his-wings-on-and-off-ice-in-south-dakota/

Sounds like a great guy. However, notwithstanding the local paper’s belief that Tier 1 and 2 players are interchangeable, I wish he was going against USHL competition. We’ll just have to trust that a coaching staff that obviously believes in him will provide enough challenges, opportunities and guidance that he comes out ahead. After all, we’ve had guys that got relegated to 3rd or 4th line duty in the USHL and never did develop their full offensive potential (Mark Miller comes to mind).

I would prefer that he went to the USHL also, as it is clearly better despite what Aberdeen might want one to think. However the NAHL and some of the Canadian leagues certainly can produce quality NCAA players. The local Aberdeen paper is of course playing up their local team.
