Confirmed with Link: Wild Sign Goaltender Mat Robson from the U

[MuckOG]

I know he was not tendered a qualifying offer (though I was confused as to how he only played one season after being signed to a two-year contract). He is playing for Straubing in Germany now but does he have an AHL deal with Iowa or is he completely out of the organization?

I believe he is a UFA

Does anyone know if we offered Hunter Shepard a deal? I was bummed we went after Robson.

Hunter Jones was signed in March. Is that the goalie you meant?

No UMD’s Hunter shepard. We signed Robson, and I was curious if anyone knew if we offered Shepard first or at all. Then shepard went and signed with Hershey.

Certainly great numbers. But I'd imagine in a strange way being on a top team probably worked against him in terms of how he was perceived. Can think of several of the winningest goalies in college hockey who never rose above the AHL.
