Prospect Info: NCAA Frozen Four (Stapley & Denver Win the National Championship)

[Whitesnake]

The Denver Pioneers....your 2022 National Champions!

Massimo Rizzo, awesome 7th round pick for the Canes. You will see this guy in the NHL some day.

Future ex-habs about to have a title!

And he has a goal on an empty netter! Good job Stapley!

Do you think we sign him?

Denver now tied for the most NCAA National Championships with 9. Congrats to them, what a season.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Congrats to Stapley and Denver!!!

He finishes the year with 43 pts (18G, 25A) in 41 GP.

He was 4th in scoring on Denver. 4th in goals and 4th in assists.

He had 2 goals in the Frozen Four. He got it started for Denver when they beat Michigan on Thursay and he helped seal it with an ENG on Saturday against Minnesota State.

If Mathias Brunet is to be believed, he won't be signed. I do hope they do. If anything, sign him to an AHL deal to finish the season with Laval and see in the off-season if you want to sign him to an ELC for next year.

We know Rhett will return to Minnesota next year. But now is Hughes' chance to sign him and get a Pitlick - Pitlick - Pitlick line.

Wasn't really impressed with Rhett. Not sure if we sign him

I have the same thing right now. Runny nose and muscle aches. I took a test earlier and I'm negative. You have an excuse to feel this way. I'm just plain weak.

Positive tests are pretty reliable, negative tests are not, at least not with recent variants. If you test daily for a week you may get one positive. I tested negative a while back but was sick for two weeks and slept for a weekend. Only tested once, though. Pretty much everyone is getting covid now, but, fortunately, not dying from the current strains.

I’ve seen reports that there is nothing much other than covid at the moment and others that there are some non-covid viruses making a comeback, so who knows?

Great news for Stapley. It will be interesting to see if he signs. I really have no idea if the Habs should sign him or not, so I'll just wait and see what they decide to do.

There's still plenty of time to change that. He should have a bigger role next year so we will see.

 

[BaseballCoach]

If the Habs had decided for sure they would not sign him at all, not even for Laval, they probably would not have posted this.

Same here. He'll need to be much better next year.

The social media team doesn't get that much information, tbh.

I think the Habs will offer Stapley an AHL contract, but he may opt not to sign it and pursue other opportunities for an ELC.

What impact did Stapley have on their run to a NCAA frozen four championship? A leader or bystander type contribution?

You can say he was a... staple for their run.

Badumpa-pshhh


But in seriousness, he played a secondary role. He wasn't their go-to guy, but he was still an important piece to the puzzle. He did contribute on a few important goals for Denver.

I'm pretty sure someone will give him an ELC.

I'm pretty sure someone will give him an ELC.

Definitely, centers are always valued.

Definitely, centers are always valued.

Centers who score over a PPG in the NCAA and are trusted to be on the ice to protect a one-goal lead at the end of Final Four games ......... yep.

With the signing of Condotta I think Stapley doesn't get a contract.

50 contract limit
