  • Re: Wisconsin Recruiting Vol. III - Building a better tomorrow...today!

    Grant Cruikshank is having a really good year in the BCHL. Currently 36th overall in points averaging almost a point per game.

    Also noticed that Sampo Ranta came back from whatever injury he had the first part of the season and has now played 11 games for Sioux City. He's got 3 goals and no assists at this point.

      Thanks for the updates.....Isn't Sampo Ranta like a top 10 name ever? I hope he starts at some point in his career.

          There isn't a Finnish name that IS NOT top ten; they are all tied for 1st. My first favorite back in the day was Reijo Ruotsalainen.
          These are just the current players; doesn't include retirees;

              Still listed as a 4 star recruit. Can't complain about him landing anywhere, good for him, but joining Army is fantastic.

                Tarek Baker was traded from Bloomington to Sioux City today. Sioux City acquired 3 forwards and a defenseman, even though they are 23-8-2 and tied for first in the West. Baker is apparently out with an injury and will be out for a few more weeks.

                It will be interesting to see if Sampo Ranta manages to stay in the lineup with all the new acquisitions.

                  Could have used him this year. What happened with him? Always like to see Wisconsin born kids succeed.

                      I was wondering where Oz and Maco were hooking up at. Fabbro is a Burnaby alum, seems like a ok place to be looking for future Badgers.

                        Seems like the coaching staff has been spending a lot of time up there recruiting Massimo Rizzo. Seems like North Dakota and Denver are also in the mix for him.

                          That's some stiff competition; let's see if the new age Badgers can land him, if indeed they're in pursuit.

                            Behold the power of G2O. They will get their guy. No human can look Oz in the eyes and say no to him. (too bad social media has negated the effectiveness of one on one contact)

                                Awesome. A point a game guy in the USHL, only 4 pm and has played on Swedish U16, U17 & U18 teams. What's with all the Euro guys? This team will look like the women's Sue and UMD teams with tons of European players. I wonder what year he'll be coming? Per Milewski next year. Fantastic.
