Why are so many of Minnesota's good players this year going to North Dakota...they should be going to the gophers <p></p><i></i>

The 3 players you are referring to live within an hour or two from UND. That is pretty much UND's territory lately. I dont think the gophers have had a Moorhead or Warroad player since the days of Wyatt Smith and Ryan Kraft. <p></p><i></i>

They got alex golgoloski (i dont know how to spell it) <p></p><i></i>

Yea...... he's kinda from Grand Rapids. That's a long way away from North Dakota...... check the map <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... lasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Elk River AA State Champions- 2001 Boys & 2004 Girls</p><i></i>

Plus you got to remember with haveing our coach go to UND this year it will help with recruiting in the section. Dont forget Ballard he went to Minnesota and he was from Lake of the Woods <p></p><i></i>

All of the good players?<br>Let's not forget about 5th (NHL) pick Blake Wheeler, Bloomington all-star Ryan Stoa all time leading scorer on Team USA, Ryan Frazee Burnsville brick wall .997% save percentage, Peter Mueller 200 pound 6'2 30 point 16 year old on Team USA, Kyle Okoposo I'm unaware of exact stats but leading scorer on Nationally recognized Shattuck St. Mary's Boys Prep.<br><br>Sorry but gopher's have their roster filling out pretty nicely in the next couple years.<br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p074.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ...

The Gophers got the guys they wanted, they have the best recruiting class in the nation and probably one of the best of all time. Well said Breeze. As for Goligoski, Guyer, Sertich, etc. their home towns are about 3 hours from the cities, and about 4 from UND. UND has gotten a lot of section 8 guys for some time, unfortunate, but true. I hope Bemidji starts getting some of these guys in the future.<br><br>It is Jeff Frazee though, not Ryan. <p></p><i></i>
