Miami's Nathan Davis and Minnesota's Evan Kauffmann both made the first team Jewish All-American team.
The NHL is basically putting their draft day media guide online this year, which is very informative. So far they've got profiles on the top 60 players up, and none have listed WCH as their favorite website. Yeah, like ESPN.com needs the exposure.
This was mostly a foregone conclusion after the draft, but Edmonton has already signed Michael St. Croix to a contract.
The education in the CIS is great, just don't look into it.
Mostly unrelated, but there was some kvetching about the APR. It's nice to know that college hockey was the one revenue-producing sport that doesn't have to worry about scholarship limitations. It helps that some of the smaller schools in college hockey are also great academic institutions.

Those ASSES!
"The education in the CIS is great, just don't look into it."
You won't post this, so I don't have to worry, but as a CIS graduate, and a person that is involved with hockey(Major Junior Level) I must say, you are a clown my friend. I was an athlete, but I actually took something other the "General Studies" and never had one "Independant Study" course..
As an accomplished journalist, I'm sure you already know that wording is everything in an article. That's why I am so surprised at the "The education in the CIS is great, just don't look into it" comment. I'm sure you read the article you linked to and could comprehend what was being said. Obviously the article was stating that there wasn't any place to easily find grad rates broken down by school and sport as there is in the NCAA and perhaps the CIS should fix that. However, your few words make it seem like it is some sort of lesser education or the CIS doesn't graduate athletes. I know that would not be the case because this is a reputable site with out an agenda. You don't wear blinders and wave the flag. You are a responsible journalist, with the priorities on getting to the truth and informing readers. I know you are very busy with all the stories you have to follow but please take the time to re-read your work before you post it next time, and like they tell you on day one of journalism school, re-read it from the perspective of your reader(not that I have to remind you of that, I'm sure).
Now that that is done, can someone find me the site that posts the grad rate for the NCAA. I'd love to see how many FSU football players graduate every year.
What do you mean...they don't major in "Ojibwa" or offer 90 semester hours of independent study like the NCAA does...those fools!
Dis the CIS all you want Chris but they are leaps and bounds ahead of the NCAA in terms of academcis.
I've actually studied the CIS system in regards to how it applies to ice hockey and the quoted article is flawed in several ways. First and foremost is seemingly lumping all of the sports together. Why don't we just lump D-I football and D-I hockey together and come up with the same sort of one-sided view?
The fact of the matter is, while the CIS does have its flaws, they also do a very good job of emphasizing education to the student-athletes and at least where their hockey players (mens and womens) are concerned, do a very good job of graduating them as well.
2:59 what did you take? Courses like Zamboni Mtce 101 or Skate Sharpening for Idiots? You are the clown.
"Dis the CIS all you want Chris but they are leaps and bounds ahead of the NCAA in terms of academcis."
This is the funniest line of the year. Good one!!

Actual Courses, completed a Honours Degree, started Grad School...and not in "Independant Studies"
I actually had to sit in a class and take tests?? I think you were looking at some of the NCAA course calendars there...
"The education in the CIS is great, just don't look into it."
Such an idiotic comment, nice way to skew the article much like most pro-NCAA types try to skew numbers using so much misinformation.
Psst... don't look into the University of Michigan athletics and education, General Studies and Independent Studies are the bedrock of a solid degree.
"Psst... don't look into the University of Michigan athletics and education, General Studies and Independent Studies are the bedrock of a solid degree."
Don't forget about "Ojibwa"
LOL!!!!!!
Does every thread posted up here have to turn into CHL vs NCAA.
Perhaps the way this blog writer posted it does leave it somewhat open for that debate.
Many students who go into the NCAA to further their studies do just fine and the same goes for CIs students.
It only takes a single newspaper peice to flame the wars up.
I find the whole study debate kind of silly. No matter what school your in either Western University in London Ontario or Boston College out on the coast, your only going to make it far if you apply yourself.
They can lead the beast to the pond but cannot force him to sip.

I'll bet your mother is really proud of you.
Don't get so worked about it... a lot of these hockey players with no brains take "independent studies", "general courses" (undeclared majors) in BOTH the NCAA & the CIS. But the CIS isn't known to be as good as the CHL (since it's mostly former CHL players who never got drafted/signed) so why the HELL are you comparing the CIS to the NCAA!? The CHL is top choice for Canadian star players & those trying to fulfill their dreams of making the NHL.
CHRIS is just trying to play with people's minds. Don't believe the hype/bias because it definitely happens in BOTH leagues, probably more so in the NCAA if you actually look at the big hockey school rosters!! *cough* Right, Chris =)?
"Does every thread posted up here have to turn into CHL vs NCAA."
It seems to be a consistent theme of the author.
