This makes me wounder what woog is >thinking. Woog is trying to put as many skates at Minnesota as he can. He had 29 players on the roster, with 23 playing 18 or more games. The fourth line was a turnstyle all season with players being rotated in and out of the lineup. By offering a few players half scholarships Woog can have more players at his disposal, but some players who are offered partial scholarships slip away from him. (Chad Remackel of CC was one) The allure of playing for Minnesota allows him to do this. Most coaches 18 scholarships -> 18 full scholarships -> 22 players Woog 18 scholarships -> 12 full, 12 half -> 24 players on scholarship -> 29 players (These numbers are made up) If you were a coach what would you prefer?
