Gregoire will turn pro.

UND seems to be losing a lot.

Max Gardiner was just drafted into the USHL.  Does Dubuque know something we don't?

They do indeed.

That's what happens when good players figure out that it just isn't a good fit. Unfortunately it burns a year of eligibility. At least he still has junior eligibility and has an option to play. He won't have to sit out a year without playing...and then he can go to a college the following year that actually wants him. I think Michael Dorr left Minnesota and went to Minnesota State in the fall of 2009 for lack of playing time also.

Tech forward Ryan Furne was arrested in a bar fight in Oakdale.

Furne chose between us and Tech

Brittain tears his ACL and meniscus at a Hockey Canada camp. Out 6-8 months.

Gophers lose a walk-on defensive recruit Chris Rial. Couldn't afford it, school couldn't help him. Big kid, 6'5" 205.

JT Miller will not be going to UND, he has signed with Plymouth of the OHL

[scsu21]

Well....that's a bummer man.



Thanks for the heads up Rabid.

Ouch! Guess he isn't that impressed with the big bad NCHC....not that he would've been playing there in two years anyway.

Craig Smith leaves Wisconsin, signs with Nashville.

[scsu21]

Tough break for UND.



Grimaldi will be out again: 6-8 weeks due to Knee injury.



Bemidji just might have picked up a little bounce in their step. BSU has beaten some good teams this year. That will be an interesting series.

Jaden Schwartz from CC signs with the Blues.

Has Schultz from Wisco signed yet?

[The_Exiled_One]

Junior forward Terry Broadhurst signed with Chicago. That's a tough loss for them... probably not unexpected.

[Duder]

DU loses Drew Shore and later the same day loses Jason Zucker. Rough day for DU. They were fun players to watch (when they weren't playing the Huskies), but can't say I feel to bad for DU.
