2 more and they can field 4 different forward lines from Friday night to Saturday night games. That is certainly a way to increase competition.Originally posted by Bonin21 View PostComment

Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand
The article states baker is having an average season AND the gophers pulled his scolarship. I mean, that's...exciting? A great get?
People are on edge and upset because the corner has not been turned and all it takes is one great class to turn things quickly...but it's not happeningEverything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

To balance out the classes, the staff either had to run a season with just 13 or 14 forwards or just recruit over some players.Originally posted by DPlaya View Post
I like the Baker pick-up. He may not be considered the can't miss prospect as he was two years ago, but he can skate and he has the hands to score. He has the potential to be a significant contributor for all 4 years This appears to be a recruiting move with plenty of upside and little downside, which is a nice change from the past few classes.Comment

I don't know the first thing about Mr. Baker, but it has to be a positive that a recruit wants to come TO Madison instead of wanting to LEAVE Madison. I'll wait and see whether it's a big positive or a small positive.Comment

Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand
I hope your right about balancing the classes because 12 play and we will have 22 forwards next year which is 3 extra line combos...Originally posted by Almington View Post
It is probably good for recruiting when the article states that Tdon pulled the scholarship. That will most certainly be used against him in future recruiting.Comment

I expect some forward attrition after this season, always seems to happen when Eaves brings in the big classes.Originally posted by WiscTJK View Post
Every coach has been accused of pulling/cutting a scholarship from a early commitment that didn't really pan out. Sometimes they still come in, sometimes they don't. It just happens.Comment

Re: Wisconsin Hockey Recruiting Vol. XXXIV: Go pick me out a winner, Strand
Don't believe everything you read. Minny didn't pull his scholarship. He decommitted 3 weeks ago. And the average season comment is solely based on points. Probably hasn't even seen him play this year. There are a lot that goes into it (systems, etc). Fact is he is the leading scorer on his USHL team. Wisco is getting a 2-way player who will have an immediate impact when he comes in.Comment

oh boy, this could get interesting. Another new voice to add to the mix.
So tell us "Hockeyfan69!", who are you and what can you share with us?

He could have 49 points and someone here would say why doesn't he have 50....Originally posted by Hockeyfan69! View Post
Eaves has some good kids on the team currently and some more coming in. This ship is turning around and some people don't want that to happen until Eaves is canned.
The team is scoring goals, but has some weak spots to patch up on D. Shoring up the D side of things is much easier to coach than getting a team to start scoring goals. This team could surprise some people in the 2nd half.
Things are moving in the right direction. Welcome aboard kid!Comment

Right direction - yes they are. After a four win season, you really can only go up.Originally posted by bucky15 View Post
