Since you guys watched far more Gophers hockey than I did, any of you guys can shed some more light on Mike Reilly? Some details about his game?

 

[Bonin21]

Basically a magician with the puck with a good shot, too. Great skater. Defense needs work, as he's good with his stick but not physical given his stature. He is not a sure fire NHLer to stick next year, and I'm afraid the hype is getting a bit out of control.

Pretty much agree with what Bonin21 said.

He's dynamic offensively, but his defense will need a lot of work.

But, jumping in on offense, and his skating/stick work are very good.

I just got "the twitter" who are the best people to follow for college puck and U hockey?

Most of the ones already listed are good. Here are 59 must follow college hockey accounts, which include some of the previous ones named.

Chris Dilks is the best college hockey twitter account.

Cold man.

Just kidding. Chris is awesome and would agree he's one of the best, if not the best, people to follow. He knows so much about the landscape, recruiting and putting everything in context.

So he's this years Justin Schultz

 

[Digitalbooya]

I'd say Justin Schultz was more sought after. Seemed like he was one of the top free agents the summer Parise and Suter signed with us.

 

[Minnesota]

So, Reilly's a less polished version of Justin Schultz... And we know how Schultz turned out.

 

[gphr513]

Yeah, at this point in their careers (coming off their 3rd year of college), I definitely think Schultz was the better player.

For Reilly's sake, hopefully his arc goes up as he hits the NHL, unlike Schultz's

 

[Digitalbooya]

I think Schultz would do a lot better on a team that wasn't a perennial bottom feeder with a terrible coach.

Luke Opilka has left Wisconsin. The beat goes on.
