        Can't remember specifics. He wasn't expected to be a sure thing contributor, was he? I thought I remember hearing he was solid in most aspects of game, but not necessarily a prospective star. Is this accurate?

        And what I would like to see with the list above that isn't on the GPL page is a description of type of player and expectations.

        ie Guy Z will be a high draft and likely contributor from day 1, but early departure likely. Playmaker who could also score 15 goals in first year.

        Player X is older bigger guy expected to stay 4 years and contribute on 3rd or 4th line.

        Player Y looked like player 1 when committed, but since then USHL play has lowered expectations as he hasn't excelled as expected.

        This helps set expectations for upcoming years for those of us who either don't follow as closely, or have crappy memories. (For the 2nd type person, maybe someone could re-post player descriptions monthly.)

          I think that's a fair way of looking at it. More of a role player at the U with maybe some offensive upside in the long run. He'll get an increased role from that where he's going

            Eaves is the second prediction I hit this last year. The other was the likelihood of moving a D to forward.

                        I've been watching for this. Good news! His announcement instills a little more confidence in what this team will look like offensively next year. His net presence will only get better.

                          The question marks are fairly large and fairly evenly weighted at F, D, and goalie. With Fasching back, I think that question mark becomes a bit smaller. No matter how well Schierhorn is doing in the USHL, that will still be a major question mark. Despite that, I think D is where we'll sink or swim.

                            Defense will come down to whether this years' sophomores got enough development to take it up a notch. I think between Collins, Glover and Johnson, we gave them about as much ice time as we could while ensuring we didn't damage our chance of winning. Sure Fasching will help in terms of carrying play on ice, but the leadership intangibles in terms of stability and helping out a large freshman class have a good chance to carry really help carry the mail.

                            We still shouldn't be the pre season conference favorites.

                              Any idea if the Gophers will play an outdoor game in conjunction with the Wild/Hockey Day Minnesota?

                              I'd love to see the Northstar Cup series played outside over that weekend...

                                Hopefully not... but considering there will be a rink on campus probably. It would be a conference game.
