Rombach improved as the year went on but yeah he’s definitely still at a point where he needs to earn his spot every night.

Dallas in 7 I say. Would love to be wrong, I just don't quite think we take them.

There isn't really any style of hockey that doesn't require mobile defensemen.

Is Smith a lock at this point?

That's one high end player I don't mind missing out on so much.

Correct. In addition to that Michigan has zero 16 team titles and UND has just one.

We have more wins and tournament wins than any program in the country. Yes we have an abnormally low amount of titles for our success but to say we don’t have a storied history is just uninformed.

They are obnoxious everywhere they go, no reason to expect this to be different.

Hastings now has 2 title game meltdowns under his belt. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.

Contradictions and goalpost moving is basically Bonin’s MO

The topic of the thread is 2026 regionals so arguably his comment is more on topic than most others.

At that time Hastings had a grand total of zero NCAA tournament wins under his belt. The scouting report on him was that he was able to beat up on a weak conference and then lose against the big boys. Perhaps a case study of why we should be careful to put so much stock into the results of a...

That’s the thing is literally nobody called for him in 2018.

Clark showed some promise early on but never really progressed. Appreciate the time he gave to the program but definitely the type of guy who needs to get processed out for this program to ascend back to the levels we want to see.

Seconded, this board has been great lately, even bonin is providing more substance.

Doesn't necessarily mean it will translate to immediate success but the fact that Larson is willing to blow up this roster makes me more confident in him. Good to see he won't be complacent.

Fair enough, superstar is a subjective term in and of itself so I won't fight you on it. I think he will certainly be more than a PP merchant. Maybe "surefire top line forward" is a better term?

The good thing with this returning forward group, as bad as the team was last year I'd say: Ludtke based on his history almost certainly can be expected to be better next year. Hendrickson I could see making a big jump in productivity. Ziemer pretty much is what he is at this point, which is a...

I don't think Whipple was nearly as bad as Mclaughlin as a freshman, but I agree I would be ok with him as a 7/8 project guy.

Also if the rumored names on GPL are the guys hitting the portal we should all be quite happy.
