Here is a nice article on new recruit Sam Kauppila that Muskieman found: http://austinbruins.pointstreaksites...ws/news_159524

It looks like Kauppila is a nice two-way player. Here are a couple of videos I located on him:

On the goal he scored there, he showed a nice extra gear. Per the following, he was selected by the Green Bay Gamblers in the 4th round of Phase I of the 2012 USHL draft:
http://finishyourcheck.com/topic/652...draft-results/ That's impressive, as the USHL Draft (Phases I and II, including selections where a team passes or is out of selections - I think this is cases that are one-in-the-same - is something like 30 rounds combined). As a frame of reference and FWIW, highly-touted Harvard recruit and Bruins 2nd Round Pick Ryan Donato went in the 6th round of that Draft.

Forward and 2015 SLU recruit Michael Ederer will be playing for the The Merritt Centennials of the BCHL next season. Here is a July 8th article on him: Centennials Welcome Big-Time Goal Scorer To Fold http://dustinscafe.blogspot.com/2014....html?spref=tw

Assuming my work schedule doesn't change, I have booked a flight to catch the @Brown/@Yale weekend in November. Is it October yet?

And, because I'm a sucker for punishment apparently, I'm parlaying that trip with a week in the woods the week prior. This, of course, happens to coincide with the Clarkson NC games Halloween weekend. So, 4 SLU games and a week searching for Bambi in the Adirondacks.

A couple of Saints participated earlier this month in the NY Islanders prospect mini camp. They were incoming freshman Mike Marnell and sophomore to be Woody Hudson.

A bummer to see SLU assistant coach Mayotte leave the Saints to go coach at Providence:

I can't say it is a huge surprise though. He is leaving to go coach with his former college head coach.

Many thanks to Kris for his time at SLU. In his two years he logged a lot of miles on the recruitment front.

It should be interesting to see who the Saints hire to fill his shoes.

As I tweeted out earlier in the week when first word of Mayotte leaving, I'd be inclined to think Sean Flanagan might be given a shot at SLU as the No. 2 assistant. Hurlbut was in Amherst for much of last few weeks at Select 15 and 16.

My money is also on a recent alum. I had someone else in mind, but Flanny would be a great choice with his Canton ties. Mayo was a road warrior and hit the USHL and BCHL hard, At least next year's class and most of 2015 are all set so the timing is not as painful as it could have been even though it is late into the summer.

Jack Lyons tweeted that Gunnar Hughes will wear the "C" this season. Doherty and Ward will don the "A".

Well, it looks like the Saints will have a new logo at center ice at Appleton this year. Here is a photo taken by Coach Carvel: https://twitter.com/SkatingSaints/st...913666/photo/1
