per Jason:

The Gophers suffered the loss of the offseason's first early departure on Wednesday morning.

Junior defenseman Brady Skjei's name popped up on the American Hockey League's transaction page as signing an amateur try-out contract with the Hartford Wolfpack, an affiliate of the New York Rangers.

The Rangers selected Skjei in the first round (28th overall) of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. The organization was interested in signing the Lakeville native after his sophomore season, but Skjei chose to join his fellow Gophers standouts and return with hopes of redeeming last year's defeat in the national championship game.

Go Gophers!!
 

No surprise. So it begins. Only ones I'm anxious to see are Fasching and Wilcox. The rest are gone or won't have any offers to leave for
 

per Russo: #gophers goalie Adam Wilcox is close to signing with the #TBLightning and could possibly join Syracuse in the AHL this weekend

Go Gophers!!
