RodrigueGabriel Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Watched Michigan-North Dakota last night and was impressed at the speed and talent of both teams. It seemed like higher quality play than you would have found 4-5 years ago, which is probably the last time I focused on the Frozen Four. Is there a general sense that the top end of NCAA D1 play has gotten higher or is it just a geezer's distorted perception? And how about Perrault going headhunting? He's not exactly 6'8", 240. I dare say he's lucky it's a single elimination tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only casually watch the NCAA, but the level of hockey, especially from the top-ends of the lineup, seems extremely dynamic and fast. Still tons of mistakes and suspect goaltending, which helps the fun along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCAA has definitely improved exponentially the last 20 years. 1- explosion of USA hockey 2- more top prospects going the way of USHL and NCAA vs CHL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodrigueGabriel Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 See the above edit. Somehow failed to see the whole bracket. The semis are hyper-local, representing the eastern half of Michigan and the Boston city limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddious Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 BC loses to Denver 2-0. Obviously no points for our boy. ive seen him play a handful of times now. Skating isn’t a strength but I think it’s over blown as a knock on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deception and creativity were off the charts. He never made the same play with the puck twice. Totally unpredictable. He's a crafty player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right i had for some reason thought he was drafted 2 drafts ago but it was the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
