Great podcast, agree that Minnesota seems to be the team to beat next year. Very excited to see the new forwards and top nine line combinations.

Good summary guys. Will be interesting to see what the team looks like in the first half. They're gonna be rolling a ton of new guys at forward, so my initial thought is the team might be mediocre in the 1st half but get to a 2-3 seed by the end of it, but with Portillo and a pretty experienced defense back there, we may be able to hold ground while the lines get sorted out and settled in
Awesome show. Much appreciated. I do wish Mel made some moves on the transfer portal... Also, what do you guys know of TJ Hughes, who seems to have committed to Michigan: https://ajhl.ca/media-centre/amp/article.html?rYear=2022&nID=20206 and Elite Prospects lists him as a transaction for UM
