You're a funny man TJK. Just a Badger fan that cares for the program and has connections like Chuck.

UW wasn't in his top 5, I'm not sure UW ever had a chance like they did with Boeser or Jost. Schuey and MM had their foot in the door, I don't know if they were ever invited in. I think the coaching changes kinda torpedoed whatever chance UW had, Bittner and Strand came too late for the party to make any difference.

They didn't have their foot in the door with Jost. The only real connection with Jost and UW was that he and Fabbro are best friends. A year ago it was all but a given that if Fabbro went NCAA it would be with Wisconsin. Badgerice is correct that Shuchuk was well connected with Fabbro and while obviously there are several other factors over the last year, Shuchuk being gone was certainly significant.

I reverted the spreadsheet. Didn't take too much work. (Thanks Google!)

I noticed on that spreadsheet that you have a walk-on goalie need next year. I don't know if Grunewald is actually on scholarship. If not, there could be a scholarship goalie coming in next year.

Thanks. I just took Chuck's and ran with it. Hopefully I can keep it up to date.

He could be on scholarship. But, if he ever see's a second of action at UW I'd be surprised. Although saying that, he is a big body to throw in the goal.

I agree there. Looks like it's Jurusik's goal for the foreseeable future.

Interesting get. Was Besse's teammate at Benilde-St. Margaret's. I really liked him a lot in High School.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand

Yeah, I would have to think that the roster would have to change at some point. I just added him to the list since I hadn't seen anything about someone leaving... other than Kunin, of course.

even more sign that Kunin is leaving, just not before this weekend.

That was my thought as well. The timing of Labosky committing seems far too coincidental.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand

In any case I think we knew there were going to be some guys currently on the roster that would probably (hopefully) be getting replaced in the future.
