Slap Shot - 444 might want to consider a restraining order. dggoddard - Minnesota is THE ELITE Program in all of college hockey. wasmania - you have to be the very best to get ice time with the great gophers!
I'd go a step further. 4-5 grinders tops on a great team. 3 on the 4th line, 2 on the 3rd line or one each on the 2nd and 3rd line if you must. the other 7 guys need to be snipers, playmakers and GOOD secondary scorers (20-25 points per season). 2006 I'd argue there were only 4 grinders on that team
Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

There's a lot to like about the look of next year's squad, but it'll be interesting to see how Eaves (if he's still here) tries to fill in the gaps for the following seasons.

At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
Re: Wisconsin Recruiting: Filling the foundation with 5 stars
If you're watching the Benilde game, #8 Spencer Naas and #4 Johnny Austin are two guys heavily on the UW radar. Naas is centering Besse's line and Austin is a really good blue-liner.

And 3 more grinders for spots 13, 14, and 15 on the depth chart thus 7 on a roster.
A grinder with a scoring touch can work on any line (more commonly called a power forward). Burish was a grinder, but worked well with Earl and Pavs on the first line.

good point, agreed.
**** I didn't know Benilde's game was streaming I would have tuned in

Re: Wisconsin Recruiting: Filling the foundation with 5 stars
Game over, Benilde wins 5-1. Besse with 2 goals and 2 assists. Besse was on the ice for all five Benilde goals. Potential UW recruit Spencer Naas with a hat-trick for Benilde. Naas has played on the second line most of the season but with TJ Moore out tonight centered Besse's line with CC recruit Dan Labosky. Naas has a number of offers from pretty good schools (few NCHC schools, others out east), but from what I've heard would commit with a UW offer. Naas has visited Wisconsin.
