    interesting to see Reitmeier that low given how much Coach has talked him up as possibly being a great one. Goes to show those reports should be taken with a little grain of salt and are only as good as the guy doing the scouting.

      Article about Poglaze. When he says he'll do anything to help a team win I hope that includes blocking shots. Looks like not a scorer, rather a hard working character guy.

      Does anyone else think it seems like a quick recruiting process for Polglaze to first see Tech on Oct. 1st then sign a LOI on Oct. 29th?

      I hope it works out.

          Then why did it take forever for my kids to find a college? They aren't even athletes trying to find a team to fit into!

            There the Kukkakauppa in Hancock. That’s Finnish for “flower shop.” And there was Kukkonen’s Studio in Hancock & Kukkonen’s Hallmark in Downtown Houghton & the Copper Country Mall..

              I am thinking splitsville this weekend against Northern. Hoping for a sweep of course, but still too many areas to shore up as far as consistency goes. Go Huskies!

              Anybody else have thoughts on this?

                I was getting Kakkakauppa mixed up with the Kukkonen's Hallmark in Houghton. I remember buying/sending flowers from the Hallmark.

                  I just want to say that if you think a scout can’t tell when a player should be sharing the puck and doesn’t you’re crazy

                      It's a bit of a round about story. There was an article in another publication about sharing the puck, and some hints out of houghton about sharing the puck and a separate article about scouting and what scouts look for.. So I made a surmise or two regarding how these articles might be related.

                        Maybe he got the best scholarship offer from Tech and that made it an easy decision? Maybe the only D1 team to offer? I could see it being hard as an athlete when you've got 5 or 10 schools after you, but if you've only got one or two options to continue playing I think it would be pretty easy.

                          Do you have a link to the article about what scouts look for?? I would be interested in reading that.

                              As a scout, here's what i look for as taught to me by an NHL scout. Based on the 5H's in no particular order. Height (how big), Heels (skating ability), Hands, Head(Hockey IQ/Smarts) and Heart(compete level/how hard does he compete). Most scouts are looking for a variation of these skills/variables.

                                That would be an interesting barroom discussion about the order of the 5H's.
