    Someone has a serious boner for Union. They lose 4-1 at home to Merrimack in front of nearly 2100 rabid fans and they get a first place vote?

      Read somewhere Lucia said he may be redishirted.

        He wants to redshirt him. Effectively he is. It's why he didn't play against Lethbridge.

          I hope they can find that chemistry that allows them to continue this trend consistently throughout the season.

            Congrats to A.J. Michealson on his scholarship.

            Three days before his son, Michael Nanne, died last month after a long battle with brain cancer, the Michael Nanne Endowed Scholarship was created. It will lead to an annual scholarship for a student-athlete on the Gophers’ men’s hockey team.

            Lou Nanne said the endowment has received many generous donations already, and that the first scholarship will go to Gophers forward A.J. Michaelson, a freshman from Apple Valley that Nanne says happens to be good friends with Michael Nanne’s daughter, Lauren.

              This really must be a financial donation and not the true creation of a scholarship. Otherwise all donations would go toward creating scholarships to improve a programs competitive advantage and they'd be limitless.

                The Michael Nanne Endowed Scholarship is an official UM academic scholarship awarded annually to a Gopher men's hockey student-athlete and is distributed through the Golden Gopher Fund with direct oversight by AD Teague. This year's recipient, Gopher forward A.J. Michealson, was announced at the annual Golden Gopher Fund banquet last Sunday.

                    I'm guessing this is a fancy way of saying its a monetary donation equal to the cost of a scholarship and not a true incremental scholarship.

                            Athletic scholarships at the University of Minnesota are mainly funded through donations not tax dollars, and are dispersed through the Golden Gopher Fund as a fund raising resource of the AD. I'm not sure, but A.J. is most likely on a partial, not a full-in-aid athletic scholarship, so the Nanne academic scholarship would offset the balance of his school bill and expenses. I've received both financial academic awards and scholarships and the stipulations do vary considerably. A full-in-aid athletic scholarship is incrementally guaranteed to cover tuition, fees, books and room and board increases. The Nanne scholarship is most likely a fixed dollar amount with annual incremental increases based upon funding availability only (you're right, no guarantee), and awarded based upon financial need, academic standing and a recommendation by Don Lucia approved by the AD.
