Ess, Kalynuk, and Weissbach have all signed and will play next season with UW. The spreadsheet can be updated accordingly. G2O must be really impressed with Ess to being him in this early.

Coach Granato, "They are all elite. We are looking to upgrade our skill. I think the one thing the group has, in general, is that they are competitors and character guys. They are all good leaders. We are looking for them to be impact players right away."

Badger Hockey: Is it October yet?

I haven't even wet a musky lure yet and your wanna fast forward to October! Patience young man, patience.

I am worried Ess is coming in too soon, but we shall see.

This might point more to the deficiencies of the defensive corps, but I hope he can contribute.

I think with Ess coming in early , may mean Patty Sexton is on his way out.

May see Hurley move back to forward as well.

Plenty of changes coming before the season starts.

There is this nugget from Milewski
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Take it for what you will, but 9 of 10 defensemen projected on <a href="https://twitter.com/BadgerMHockey">@BadgerMHockey</a>'s roster next year are left shots. 6/8 were lefty last season.</p>— Todd Milewski (@ToddMilewski) <a href="https://twitter.com/ToddMilewski/status/855444171792015360">April 21, 2017</a></blockquote>

I'm not sure what it means in terms of who is in/out since I haven't taken the time to review who shoots L vs R.

Top tier D returning: Linhart, Davison, Tischke, Greenway
2nd tier returning: Bunz, Hurley, Sexton
Recruits: Ess, Kalynuk, Inamoto

Kalynuk and Inamoto are playing right away, G2O have made that clear. They love Ess too. How good are Linhart and Davison? Could they get bumped to the 3rd pair or out of the lineup altogether? They did like Bunz at the end of last year too.

Kalynuk Tischke
Inamoto Greenway
Ess XXXX
 
Re: Wisconsin Recruiting Vol. III - Building a better tomorrow...today!

If memory serves me right, Linhart is the only righty on the roster for next year, and Ty Emberson is the only current D commit that is right handed. My guess is Linhart is in the lineup next year.

Linhart is definitely in the lineup. You have the rest correct.
 
Re: Wisconsin Recruiting Vol. III - Building a better tomorrow...today!

In one year, G2O have had 28 players commit, 28! I am blown away by the amount of work they have accomplished in one year just on the recruiting front. Apparently TG told the Athletic Board they are a year ahead of schedule as far as the rebuild goes, which makes sense from both a record front and a recruiting front. I listen to 540 ESPN when I get a chance to and even Homer the afternoon guy said that in 5 years of the G2O hire UW will win a men's NCAA title. Is it October yet? ;)

Homer talked about UW hockey?

Homer and Gab were discussing topics that don't move the needle, and hockey was on that list, though he did interject that when UW hired G2O he felt UW would win a title in 5 years. That was it.

One year ago today, the Detroit Red Wings were eliminated from the playoffs, and coach Granato came home.
