Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18

http://www.stormhockey.com/Roster/DannyDiGrande

Overview:
◾Has a heavy shot, power forward skill set and two seasons of USHL experience. Had his 2016-17 season end due to a lower-body injury in February.

Note: Tri-City has linked the Elite Prospect stats for Blais Richartz in error. Everything else there appears to pertain to DiGrande who was traded over the summer to Waterloo http://www.ksnblocal4.com/content/sp...434180553.html.

**Ralph Baer** · 11-07-2017, 12:23 AM

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18

We now have 4 forwards (Ashbrook, Bendorf, DiGrande, and Lee) who are supposedly coming in the fall and only one graduating (Liljegren). No doubt someone is not returning, probably at least two.

Edit: Lee and DiGrande as 97s must come. It is possible but IMO unlikely that the other two could defer until 2019.

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18

Tuesday’s games:

Swankler: At best there will be a tweet with goal scorers and later the team’s site will have the cumulative stats updated.

I will post the summaries whenever.

Thanks. That surprises me since he had often been in the starting lineup.

I wonder where he will end up. Perhaps back in Surrey.

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2017-18

It probably had to do with the import player limit since at the same time they tweeted:

and he is from Poland.

Not too worried, as Mark Miller didn't light the lamp too many times, but did fairly well in that department when he was in college. Perhaps we'll end up seeing something similar?

One must also consider the unknown factor of how much scholarship money a given player is costing us. I expect more from someone on a full scholarship that a recruited walkon or someone on a small fraction of scholarship. Also this year is still pretty young.

Miller did get 11 goals his final year in the USHL. http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=74777
