    As a '99 he can play 3 years in CR.

      Having said that, I'm interested to see how it plays out. I'm sure if he's capable of getting here in 18 and he and the team are both on board with that plan, they'll find a way to make it happen. I personally agree that the year in the USHL is beneficial and would rather he had one.
      That's very kind of you, but CollegeHockeyRinkReport has far better sources and knows a thing or two. He may be correct, however I will say that my source here is someone who has known the boy, his family, and his "game" for many years. Who knows how quickly his skills may develop in the USHL?

        Yes...he's a late year 1999 and would still be 20 @ the end of 2019-20 season...

          FWIW, my two cents, it would make 0 sense for him to return to Thayer if his goal is D1 in the Fall of 2018. Something I have complained about with this current team is that a couple to some of the current players would have done well to do a USHL season before arriving. This kid would benefit with like players around him and to see how he responds when he gets pushed around.

              My alma mater (MC) is pretty well represented in Hockey East. Filipe and Collier (NU), the Fitzgeralds (BC) and Nazarian (UNH). Oh, and that Vecchione kid at Union is pretty good too!

                  I can agree with that. I was told differently, but plans can be changed. The USHL seems to be a finishing school for D1 hockey players. The player who could have benefitted from the USHL is Lincoln Griffin, who was accelerated and came a year early. I saw very little improvement from his freshman year.

                        Don't feel good at all about this overtime. Hope I'm wrong.

                            To play like that in the first.. then have the same old happen & kids not step up. We've seen this. Yes it was a 1 goal OT gm.. but not really. Gave up 3 unanswered G.

                            Barring a miracle.. they might be done here.

                              Agree that it looks bleak, but this senior class has produced a few miracles before. I gotta think ZAR and Johnny aren't gonna go out with a whimper, they'll put it all out there tomorrow night. Would be nice if they could enter the zone on the PP tomorrow. BU was clearly taking away the Cockerill drop pass to Sikura entry that has been so effective all year. From there they looked lost on whether to try and skate it in or get it deep. Need a much better game from Gaudette tomorrow as well.

                                Huge moment in the game even though it was still the first period......Oettingers desperation stop on Davies back door wide open shot. Might have been enough right there.
