2023 U Sports Recruiting

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Seems we’ve had an unusually small amount of official recruiting announcements from teams thus far given where we are in the offseason. Off the top of my head, there hasn’t been anything yet from SMU, UPEI, Alberta, Calgary, and Mount Royal. Saskatchewan and UBC have announced a few guys.

EDIT - spelling

 

[AUS Fan]

Maybe they aren't "official", but the recruits are posted in this thread.

That's a big class - it's also a lot of guys in the stands . Must be nice not to have a 'cap'.

Gee, I wonder why the AUS coaches voted in favour of a cap in the first place...

Feels weird Trevor Wong never got drafted or a serious pro look.. 106 points and team captain..

I mean, good for the huskies, Sask and Alberta need bounce back years. Programs have been decent, but not dominant like the last 15-20 years. UBC and Calgary have improved to their level now. good for entertainment overall.

Ottawa recruit Lou-Felix Denis has signed with Reading of the ECHL.

Ottawa loses another good recruit as Stuart Rolofs has signed an ECHL deal.

What a gut punch losing arguably their top two offensive minded recruits in a year that you are hosting Nationals!

They had a decent team last season. Got knocked out by UQTR. But yeah, losing those two recruits hurts

Maybe uOttawa will get lucky and the two of them will change their minds by Christmas.

Odd....I thought I saw a posting "somewhere" this afternoon that former Acadie-Bathurst Titan Robert Orr is heading to PEI. Now I can't find it anywhere. So let's call it a rumor.

You were on to something. Orr is listed on the Panthers roster for tonight’s game, at least according to the Live Stats.

Mirwald - has committed to school. I think in Canada west

Still no word where he has ended up…not Alberta/Saskatchewan/MRU/Manitoba….so U.B.C. or Calgary??

 

[AUS Fan]

A SMU recruit snuck in under the radar - D-Man Will Thompson, 5 years in the Q, 3 at SFX and 1 in France. Not a big point getter, but a big hitter. I saw him play Friday against Waterloo and he made a few solid hits. Him and Wainman could find a spot on the roster with their defensive play.

Jeremy Lapointe is on his way back from France.

From UPEI Xwitter:

Panthers add firepower in forward ROBERT "BOBBY" ORR
"I'm very excited to join this team. We're a young group with lots of talent, and I think we'll surprise a lot of people this year and in years to come." – Bobby Orr

That’s a nice (surprising??) (re)addition for the Aigles.

Who did Moncton lose off last year’s team?

Looks like Miron, Guilbault, Lanoue, Couture and Ethier

Looks like Miron, Guilbault, Lanoue, Couture and Ethier

Miron - 0-2-2 in 11 GP
Lanoue - 0-0-0 in 5 GP
Guilbault - 4-8-12 in 28 GP
Coutire - 4-2-6 in 23 GP
Ethier 7 GP as the backup goalie

So didn't really lose too much + brought in a couple good recruits + have to think they will get more than 10 GP out of Cyr this season. Moncton should be a strong contender for a spot at Nationals again this year.

Golden Bears Hockey adds 11 in loaded recruiting class - University of Alberta

Group has over 2,000 games of WHL experience

bearsandpandas.ca

Alberta announces recruiting class. One significant name missing - defenceman Parker Berge, who is still at the Ontario Reign’s (AHL) training camp.

However, it does sound like forward Brett Hyland will begin the season with the Bears.
