Congrats to Hugh McGing for signing with the St Louis Blues and to Austin Rueschoff for signing with the New York Rangers .
Man is WMU going to look different next year with us losing all the seniors and now Ruesh and maybe Matthais

Congrats to those guys.. Next year gonna be quite different

Wow ruesh is gone too......

Hope AM is bringing in some good talent otherwise we might be at the bottom of the NCHC for the next year or so.

We could potentially lose half of our roster in the off season

He's got a lot coming in. Not sure how good they are going to be though. Team still has quite a few good players, but not enough I'm afraid

Could be that time where we find ourselves with a young group of kids who play better TOGETHER than our merry band of individual superstars from this season.

Next year is definitely going to be a transition year. Losing Rueschhoff is a big one I didn’t expect. I wonder how long Bussi is going to stick around.

What wow

We still have some decent players: Washe, gallant, Passolt, Frank, Kingston, Polin, Worrad.

I don’t think we have to worry about Bussi leaving.

Should be interesting to see if Mattias leaves, id bet he does.

If I were AM, need to schedule some cupcakes in non conference. Keep Ferris, maybe an Atlantic hockey team, wonder if we will head to RPI too.

That came off much more derogatory than intended. I wAs just stating we might be surprised by some youngsters who might be more apt to play the system where some of our superstars tended to go a little solo when things would break down.

Got much better as season went on but there were some times early in the season where these super seniors seemed to forget how to play together very well.

I think it had more to do with the injuries we had . AM stated after the new year that they were finally getting to put the line combinations together that they envisioned at the start of the year .
As for next year i know some of what we have coming in and we are going to be near the bottom for the next few years .
