I'll be at the Sioux Falls/Dubuque game tonight. I'll take a gander at Vance and Becker and report back.

That post from bigblue (****wad) was one of the worst I've seen in years, and don't give Busch Light a bad name. I would say he had his fill of Keystones.

Vance is a smooth skating defencemen thats can move the puck up well. Becker is a big forward that has the ability to play well, kinda reminds me of Ustaski.

Side note, Keegan Ford got in a scrum last night.

Any big time recruits we should be in on now that we've hired the Granato bros and Oz?
 
Should we be rooting for Detroit and Rockford to bow out early so the coaches can jump into recruiting, or can these guys pull double duty and start recruiting right away?

If we're talking immediate splash, F Patrick Khodorenko and D J.D. Greenway are uncommitted off the NTDP. Khodorenko is 2017 draft eligible so he'd be in a similar situation as Kunin was last year.

I mentioned a possibility in that D Grant Gabriele decommitted from Western Michigan last week. He played for Donny at the NTDP the two previous years. I'd like to know what happened there. He was listed as a top 100 prospect by Central Scouting for 2015 (#73 at one point, way ahead of Caleb Jones for example), but went undrafted. Why, I don't know exactly.

What's wrong with that family? Goof fans?

I was listening to the EC feed of the Memorial state tournament game and they played an interview of his brother in between periods. Said he was attending UM and that it would make his Grandpa proud because he loved the goofs. Not exact words(some weeks ago since I heard it), but somewhere along those lines.

Oz of course makes the recruiting battle more interesting for Ty.

Either way, seems like another great kid coming out of the state.

Is there an ncaa rule allowing for kids to not sit a year if they're the 43rd athlete on the team and they want to transfer? If The Three Amigos want to bring in anyone last minute, there isn't exactly a lot of room at the inn, so I'd imagine some kids might end up wanting out.

IIRC, the scholarships are issued on a yearly basis, so theoretically they could cull the herd pretty easily and have $$$ to spend.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand

I was looking at it more from the students perspective. Does Alex Shuchuk have to sit a year if he's (effectively, though presumably not actually) cut from the team?
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand

Andy says Ty's parents went to UW, while his grandfather played hockey and baseball at Minnesota.

I think this means that my sign that said, "Hi, Ty Emberson" at the game he attended will be the determining factor! A family friend of theirs did take a picture to send to Ty's dad. :D
