And if you're interested in the USHL

Ask and you will recieve, I was lost about the USHL and it seems I have found the perfect place for updates, a nice USHL blog. He has some great info on the league's games as well as recruiting. Why do we care? Because many of the WCHA teams (and the rest of the country as well) will draft their players and then assign them to these development leagues to mature and adjust to faster hockey. USHL is the Tier 1 league and is basically AAA for college hockey-it's a sweet deal. If you have anymore questions, I'm sure our USHL blogger will be able to help out. See his comment in my previous post about all the recruits in just this past weekends' games.

A look into some future WCHA faces

Saturday night I got the opportunity to check out the Lincoln Stars take on Sioux Falls in the 3rd game of their USHL playoff series. There were numerous players on the ice who we will be seeing in the WCHA shortly. Currently on the Stars roster are; Jason Gregoire who is listed as a 2007 recruit and will play for DU and Steve Shultz who will be joining CC in the future.
Sioux Falls also had numerous players: Nick Dineen, who will be playing for CC, Alex Kangas-a goalie who will be playing for Minnesota. There may have been more but it's hard to find an accurate and up-to-date recruiting site, thanks for the comments updating my lack-of-USHL knowledge. Also, they had a very amusing intermission show with a human slingshot and one small girl that got launched hit super hard and bounced off; fortunately I had my camera with me so take a look!
