w-t-f is uscho talking about?

Re: w-t-f is uscho talking about?

I would really like to see a list of early WCHA departures since the summer of 2006. I'm sure you could make a couple of world beating teams out of them.
 
Re: w-t-f is uscho talking about?

get serious. I'll take DU, UW, UND, CC's odds on winning it all against the rest of the table:D

and someone else could take miami and bc and throw in any two. and i'd like my four.

just on our little subway green line i'll skate colin wilson, nate gerbe, cory schneider, nick petrecki, and brian strait (and to fill out the fwd line, i add pat kane :p ). every decent program loses guys early. i think my five from only two hea teams has a good chance to beat your wcha 10-team five in a 7 game series.

You area clown! The WCHA is the best conference evah!!!one!!
 
Re: w-t-f is uscho talking about?

Mookie, I guess I've heard of Pat Kane. I really don't know why you bring him up. But you know I was asking about WCHA defectors.

The HEA team would have no depth. The WCHA 3/4 lines would dominate the lowly HEA lines like it ain't no thang.

:D

I'm going to play the video game version where you only have to play one line. :p

You should add another that is an easy walk from the green line...then you can have Brad Theissen in goal.

You'll need him because the WCHA will have Richard Bachman in goal.:p
 
Re: w-t-f is uscho talking about?

2007 - 4 Hockey East teams made the field, BC, BU, Maine and New Hampshire. BU and UNH lost in the first round, while Maine and BC advanced to the frozen four. BC lost in the final. Tale of the tape, 4 teams, 9 games, 5 wins, 2 frozen four appearances, 0 titles.

Hockey East sent 5 teams to the NCAA tournament: BC, BU, Maine, UNH and you forgot UMass. That would bring your above totaling to 5 teams and 6 wins as UMass beat Clarkson in the first round.

Minnesota: Phil Kessel, Blake Wheeler, Kyle Okposo, Alex Goligoski, Erik Johnson, Stu Bickel, Ryan Stoa...

UND has lost a crapload in the last three years as well.

North Dakota: Jordan Parise, Matt Smaby, Rastislav Spirko, Drew Stafford, Travis Zajac, Brian Lee, Jonathan Toews, Taylor Chorney, TJ Oshie

Yeah, I'm guessing a team formed from just those three WCHA teams could dominate an all-HEA team. :)

We might be able to add Matt Frattin to that list at this point, although he wasn't exactly a "departure."

From what I've heard, he'll be back next year, so I didn't put him on the list.

Although I could have put Michael Forney on that list, since he signed earlier this year.
 
Re: w-t-f is uscho talking about?

UW - Jamie McBain, Kyle Turris, Robbie Earl, Jack Skille, Joe Pavelski, and many more are coming after this year.

Forney is a little different as he only played in a handful games in his 2 years, and didn't actually leave but played in the USHL before stating he wasn't returning. Also, the other guys on your list all made impacts, Forney really wasn't an impact player.

I wouldn't exactly say too many more. Ryan McDonagh and Jake Gardiner are both possibilites, but nobody else really sticks out in my mind as jumping ship after this season. I think it's almost a certainty that guys like Derek Stepan will stick around for at least another year, especially if Wisconsin does well enough this season.
