A goalie I work with was offered a full ride to be the starting goalie at Bemidji Minnesota State.

Denver & North Dakota seem interested, but haven't made any commitments yet. I've had goalies play at both those programs, but no one at Bemidji.

Do they have a good hockey team? I believe this goalie to be NHL good. He's coming from 5 seasons in the WHL. I want to make sure the NCAA program he goes to can set him up to make the next step to pro.

Bemidji is 100% legit. Very good hockey. Very good schedule they play too.

They’ve sent a fair share of guys to the NHL.

Thanks for the insight 🫡

Here’s the thing. The player portal has made it very tough to predict playing time for college kids. Unless they get a full ride & 100% guarantee, players move around so much now that positions can be taken quickly. Playing time matters. He may make North Dakota etc but may never see the net.

That's the discussion I had with his parents, earlier today.

Bemidji is offering him to be the starter as soon as he comes in. With only 30-ish games per season, getting starts is important.

Good man. Good advice.
