First MN born player to sign with Swarm

by **Npaulseth** on Fri Dec 07, 2007 7:12 pm

I just wanted to say congrats to Colin Achenbach to be the first MN born player to sign with the Swarm. I know this will spark my interest in the team again (I used to be a season ticket holder).

Congrats!

Congrats to Colin. I had a chance to meet with him this fall when his brother moved out here and he seems like a real solid kid. Good luck!

Good find Noah, I'm with you on this re-sparking my interest in the team. I'm hoping he sees some solid PT when I visit the Xcel

On a sort of similar note ...

Are Achenbach and the Lipkins coaching at the U of M?

Aron Lipkin is now at U of M, but Achenbach is not.

If I'm not mistaken he's also the only non Canadian on the team
