Re: Minnesota Gophers Offesason Thread: Back To 1896
In the Schmidt article, tDon was quoted as saying that he wouldn't try to talk anyone into staying. I was wondering about this and I suppose it's because you're faced with one of two options:
A) Try and talk your players into staying for four years and become known as someone who doesn't fully support college hockey as a development for the pros thus losing out on top-quality players who don't want that pressure
B) Emphasize that it's their choice completely and get those top-drafted players for at least a year or three, hope they stay, but be SOL when they leave, while replacing them with a new player for two or three years
Which is better?

That seems incredibly sensible to me.
