  • Re: Wisconsin Recruiting Vol. IV - It's all coming together

    We all know that’s North Dakota doesn’t recruit players: they grow them in a lab, like in Westworld.

    How else does one explain the fact that Joe Finley exists?
    If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

    BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!


    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."

    Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

      People who go to UM are smart enough make a conscious decision to reject the awesomeness of UW, UW people are smart enough to realize the awesomeness of UW and go there, UND people not are smart enough to understand the awesomeness of UW or the unawesomeness of UM, they like the color green and they hate trees.

        For the players that weren't already criminals, I always assumed Gino and Blaiser and Hak, etc. kept a member of the player's family duct-taped to a chair in the basement under the Ralph for four years.

          Prokop has committed to Miami as of today. The lack of room had to be a factor, but time will tell. Wish him luck in joining "the Brotherhood".

          Which, incidentally, has always struck me as just a bit eerie... I'm worried behind the scenes they're plotting to overthrow Costa Rica or Poland or something.

            Just saw a post that Turcotte grew a lot in the last year. Wouldn't be surprised if you have a top 5 pick coming in next year along with another first rounder that could sneak around 15-20.

              I wouldn't be surprised either. The only reason Turcotte isn't the main player to talk about in every game he plays now is because the upcoming #1 pick is on the same team.

                  .....and was he on UW's radar? I've got to admit I've never heard of him and don't remember him in the championship game in Feb.

                  The article states he played 2 games for Sioux City last year, but he's going back to EC North for his senior year.

                      I think this is a pretty good get for the Badgers. Stange stood out enough to make the All-Star Game at the Select 17's this summer, marking him as one of the better players among the group of best players across the nation invited to the USA development camp. He's one of a small handful of favorites for WI HS player of the year this year I'd think. Really good athlete with talent and a high ceiling from what I've heard about him.

                      While I'd like him to play Juniors this year too, I'd say it's not necessarily a one size fits all answer for every player. Presumably he'll play at least one year of Juniors next year which may be just fine for him. For some guys jumping up and playing a limited role when their not physically as ready vs. playing 30 minutes a night of top line and PP on their current team isn't always better. Especially when they're getting the opportunities to go to high end camps and play at high levels outside of the HS season. He's a good player and has at least 2 years to get even better.

                      His select 17 camp performance has likely landed him on a lot of NHL draft boards as a player to track, and we just saw Gorniak had no problem getting drafted in a decent spot out of WI HS. His future is looking pretty good at the moment.

                            I was actually in Madison for a week, but had some family stuff going on. Otherwise I would have tried to annoy a few of you in person. Next time, for sure.

                              Wisconsin picks up a very good commitment from ‘03 RD Grayden Daul from Chicago Mission 16U. A little on smaller side, but very good mobility, two-way defender, excels at breakouts.

                                Looks like a '22-'23 defense addition at this point. Thanks for the heads up.
