Unfortunately, my contact has gone silent during the Memorial Cup. The boys don't want to talk about anything other than the next game. Can't blame them. It seems to be working. A month ago, I would have said no chance but I don't think that's the case any longer.

ya, I realize Gopher fans like shiny stuff. A 6'5" stay at home defensemen, who wins corner battles and blocks shots like a 2nd goalie might not be the right fit for this fan base.

It's all good, Brek Liske and/or Luke Vlooswyk in Maroon n Gold is still a possibility. Personally, if feel Vlooswyk is so underrated and would have immediate impact. Liske has more upside but may take a bit more time to gel in the NCAA.

He got surgery now instead of after Everett's season..he wanted to return for the finals/Memorial Cup but the offer was rescinded if he waited until the end of the season. Good kid, great get. I'm glad it worked out for both sides. A one year rental totally worth the price. Good to see the...

sorry, just sharing some insight. It may not make sense and it doesn't really have to. Not much does lately in college hockey. Just don't slot him into your mock line-up for next season.

while respecting privacy, let's just say...check the Silvertips line-up during the Kelowna series. It's a valid but shitty reason.

would love to see Dupes in maroon n gold but it's not likely happening. If you watch the Everett - Penticton series take a look at how well Dupont blocks shots. At 16, the kid is a complete player. Another good CHL option at D, is Luke Vlooswyk (Everett) - Philadelphia 7th rounder. His stock...

Source just confirmed Tarin Smith is not coming. In a strange twist, he verbally committed but Minnesota decom'd.

If Everett wins the WHL, they move on to the Memorial Cup, which ends May 31st. If he's heading to Minnesota, he'll need to be enrolled before June 1st. Otherwise, the Ducks lose his rights and he re-enters the draft.

As the rule is currently written, as soon as they play a competitive game at the Pro level after enrolling in college, they are no longer eligible to play NCAA D1 hockey. Therefore, they can join a team, practice with them, and participate in intra-squad scrimmages, but cannot play a game...

Take it for what it is but I can confirm a MN coach was in Everett during the bye week. I'm hearing Providence is recruiting Dupont big time.

Minnesota Expat - University of Minnesota alum and Vikings fan living out of state.

R-E-L-A-X ... Bob, Ben and Brennan have it under control. We'll be fine! You two need to take a few weeks off, spend sometime with loved ones and wait until the Memorial Cup is over. Plus, Kvasnicka and Mooney are tearing it up at 18U in Frisco.
