          We've got 15, my question is where are all these going to end up? We don't have room for them, as of now.

            Yup, 4 flips to MSU in a single year. I can't ever remember more than one in a year in the past. Looks like these are guys who liked MSU, but not the previous coach...along with the promise of more playing time sooner here. This looks to be shaping up to a bigger change year than many of us expected (but hoped for)...a goaltender, 3 (or 4?) defensemen, and 2 (or 3?) forwards to fill 3 (at this time) outgoing positions. Cole said last year he was a couple of forwards short from what he'd like, but was holding the spots for better players. I expect 1-2 current players to be cut to give MSU a roster of 8 defensemen, 15-16 forwards, and 3 goalies.

              Hockey recruiting media isn't nearly as robust as football or basketball so my only idea is that a number of players listed as current commits have moved on or pushed back a year but the info was never updated. It would appear to me that neither Cole nor Pearson are afraid to replace commits with better ones if the opportunity arises. Or perhaps the new coaches are wasting no time shuffling as many of their players in as possible.

                Wow. This is going to be a very different roster in October, if I were a wagerer. Besides the 'O', need to pick up a goalie in the near future.

                  I can't wait for the official release from the university on what new players are coming...

                    Isn't Brind'Amour supposed to be in this class?

                        Ah, some news! That puts us at 3 defenseman for 2 that have departed. Wishman and that Swedish kid are still out there. Are they coming or did the Krygier twins replace them? I suppose current roster attrition may happen as well and this could be moot.

                        It also seems like Cole is targeting quite a bit of size in future classes.

                        As for Brind’Amour, I am not sure but as previously noted it would seem he is scheduled for a 2019 arrival. I always take that stuff with a grain of salt, though. CHN also says DeRidder will arrive in 2019 and we know that is false. Brind’Amour will be 19 this summer so I guess he could swing either direction. He may round out our forwards if no unexpected roster spots open up.

                        Lebster has already spent 2 full seasons in the USHL. I’d guess he has a good chance of coming in this fall.

                          MSU will bring in 7 this year. One more forward is on the way. While Cole can’t comment on who he is...it’s almost certainly Matson. So this class will have one excellent goaltender, 3 defensemen with Cesana a Krug type, and 3 talented forwards. Things are looking good....

                            We also know our non-conference opponents for next year. LSSU and MTU/Mich at Great Lakes Invite, at Arizona State, at Cornell, home against NMU, and h andh against Ferris.

                              Only 3 non con games at Munn? A bit of a bummer there.

                              At Cornell and ASU is certainly interesting, though.

                                Heisenberg had him as a 2018. But a couple forwards leaving next year so there'll be room if he ends up coming in '19.

                                Got a bit spoiled with the CCHA reunion tour at Munn last year. That was probably the perfect non-con schedule with the home and homes.
