Vote For Hobey is up and running. DU has 3 of the 74 in the first round of fan voting. Can you guess who?

Borgstrom, Gambrell and Terry

Adam Wooton on CHN thinks a strong 2nd half could give DU back to back Hobey winners-- Borgstrom to follow Butcher.

Only because he is JP's brother, Mike Testuide will be playing in the Olympics for South Korea. It appears he has had South Korean citizenship since 2015.

In case you forgot J.P. Testwuide played Defense at DU from 2005-2009. He was Captain his senior year. The same year he racked up 110 penalty minutes.

Good catch.
NTDP U18 roster shows Middendorf as uncommitted.

DU currently has 6 NLI's signed for 2018-19 (4 forwards and 2 D-men) and just got a verbal from USHL's leading goalie, Filip Larsson. Plus 3 other recruits who were originally slotted for this season.

Current roster has 4 seniors (Junda, Jaillet, Plant and Hammond) and 3 pretty much expected to leave early (Borgstrom, Gambrell and Terry). That is 4 forwards, 2-D-men and 1 Goalie.

Either DU asked Middendorf to wait a year/ no scholarship money available or he and his "family adviser" decided that chances were not good for a scholie/didn't want to wait until 2019-2020 and this would be a good time to reopen recruitment . Since DU can't talk about recruits until NLI is signed there has been no public announcement.

Just thinking out loud - it occurred to me that DU has struggled with depth this season due to injury. As a result they were forced to bring in a D and an F mid-season. I wonder if they needed scholarship money to convince those players to join mid season and that ate up Middendorf's piece of the pie or facilitated a deferral request?

Adding Guttman late in the process (for 2018) also could have been a major factor...

That is 12-straight wins over Omaha for DU. The Pios have outscored the Mavericks 47-14 over that stretch and have not lost to UNO since I moved to Denver. Amazing dominance of a pretty good opponent. Omaha has to be thrilled this is a one series year with DU...
