Bode Wilde

US NTDP D Bode Wilde, a likely 2018 NHL first round draft pick, has decommitted from Harvard and has visited Michigan. He is a big elite skating D

He is a dual US/Canadian citizen

Samuelsson, Hughes(if he were to stay two years) and Wilde are three potential first round draft picks for the blue line. Would be great to land him

Agree. Would be a big get.

Chris Dilks has him committing to Michigan tonight. Sounds like we need to keep the OHL away from him though.

Believe it most likely that he wouldn't bother de-committing from Harvard at all if he was leaning toward Saginaw. But, you just never know. Likely a one and done, maybe a two and done. Prepare for even crazier roller coaster rides in the offseasons. Nature of the business now. Enjoy them while you've got them.

Looking at things this morning, SBNation, MHockeyNow and the Elite Prospects website all say he has committed to Michigan for 2018.

His commitment statement is quite strongly worded about his desire to play for UM.

outstanding, I don't know much about hockey recruiting. Is coach Mel landing equal talent to coach Red in his prime?

The process is incomplete since recruiting is done so far in advance. Mel's improvements to classes already started by the former staff have been very impressive. Remember that those classes of Red's to which your referring can be attributed to Mel in no small portion.

There is a common thread
