UMD senior forward Blake Biondi of Hermantown joins the Bulldog Insider Podcast this week to discuss his return from double shoulder surgery and what needs to happen for the UMD offense to succeed.

After missing the second half of his junior season in 2022-23 due to shoulder injuries, Hermantown native Blake Biondi is back with the Bulldogs for his senior season in 2023-24, ready to score goals and help get UMD back to the NCAA tournament after the program fell short a year ago.

Biondi, a winger who was selected by the Montreal Canadiens in the fourth round of the 2020 NHL Draft, had surgery on both shoulders during the second half of last season. He joined the Bulldog Insider Podcast this week to talk about the recovery process and share what he expects of himself and the team this season.

Bulldog Insider is co-hosted by Matt Wellens and Zach Schneider. Episodes are edited and produced by Duluth News Tribune digital producers Wyatt Buckner and Dan Williamson.
