Dell for Walski; MacWilliam for Finley; Gleason for Jones. That's easy. Now you need to replace: Duncan, Watkins, Martens, Kozek, Miller I say that's easy to guess: Cichy, Kristo, Bruneteau, Forney, Knight (in that order) The assumption in there is Forney coming back. If that's not the case, or if Vande Velde leaves, I'd guess Rowney in next. (Only if Forney doesn't return and Vande Velde leaves do I expect to see Mattson.) I suspect based on age, health, size, and/or experiences (like going into corners), that Dan Mattson and Mike Fink are Fall of 2010 guys (and spend 2009-10 in the USHL). I've noted one possible exception to that theory.

Notermann, verb: the act of hitting the pipe with attempted shot on goal Kozek, verb: the act of shooting over the net and hitting the glass with enough force that it's heard sharply thoughout the arena Usage "Dang, Notermann on that opportunity. I hate that sound." "Well, at least he didn't Kozek and had a rebound chance."

Sweet Parise people. Can't you come up with anything better? Oh my Parise.

Wasn't it a second crest that got Grand Forks?

Allow me to weave a story for you ... There was this team. A very good college hockey team. It had a strong run of games over multiple seasons. They

You only got part of that story: - UND is replacing the Minnesota Wild in the NHL NW Division - the Wild are being traded to the Swedish Elite league for a dozen bikini models and a crock pot of meatballs - once UND's in the NHL, Bemidji State to the WCHA with GF Central and GF Red River --> 12 team league

They don't have to change anything. There is no NCAA DII National Championship so a DII is allowed to play up at the DI level.

CC dropped FB because the administration told CC Athletics they need to cut $8-12 million from the budgets. There aren't many DIIIs around that region and they were getting killed on travel costs for FB. CC's solution? See: Western Washington. CC dropped football because of money, not any NCAA rule.

Which "new NCAA requirements" do you refer to? I'm unfamiliar with any recent changes. The most recent thing I know of regarding DIII schools playing DI hockey was a couple years ago: There was a resolution allowing those DIIIs playing DI hockey to keep giving scholarships for just DI hockey (see: CC and five other schools) as normally DIII does not give scholarships. However, any DIIIs looking to move to play DI hockey would not be allowed to give scholarships (see: RIT). For RIT to give DI hockey scholarships they'd have to move to DII (see: UMD, SCSU, MSU-M).

Dude, ... Why not just quote your neighbor's dog too?

Kozek, Duncan, and Watkins all left the BCHL for UND the same year. That year they were 2nd, 3rd, and 8th in scoring (in that order) when they left.

I think I like the UND FB jersey in the Gemini link better than the new one shown in the Football forum. Why? The shoulder region is missing two intertwined letters but adds one logo.

I like the FB jersey for UND shown here ... http://www.geminiathleticwear.com/ ... especially the shoulder region.

I've given you people the answer key once already. Too bad it seems (via USCHO thread) that UNO and NMU are happy where they're at (CCHA).

To be fair, that lax game was over nine seconds into the first OT. It's just that one of the officials thought they were being paid by the hour, and not by the contest, so they blew an inadvertent whistle trying to make some extra cash.

... until a UND team coached by Rylan Kaip is in the Lax Final Four. And for the record: I have Midco cable and with it I have ESPN2 and ESPN2HD. Lax was on ESPN2HD but when I jumped down to just ESPN2 there was UND/UNH. Anybody else try that?

If over the past 12 years he'd have led the city in building flood control like the other major cities on the Red (Winnipeg, Grand Forks) he would be able to sleep at night (and wouldn't be sticking his foot in his mouth). Then again, he was getting sleep when he admitted, the day after the crash, Fargo's negligence regarding lack of street repairs causing the traffic death of a juvenile. (The city attornies had to cringe at that one.) Denny was talking "second crest" just last week. A lot of wet snow has landed in the southern RRV. I'm guessing he'll get 39+ feet to deal with again. If you're in the RRV: sleep fast while you can.

And he's got some really dumb ones lately ... Wasn't he president of Bison TeamMakers? <punch line here>

Brain-gap. Sorry. I meant Fontaine (the sophomore) but had Sharp on the brain from post-season. Should Donny be worried about Schroeder?

I'm surprised that there isn't more MacGregor Sharp speculation.

Uh, folks, from that article: Check the dates. That article's over a year old and Jones and Davis are long gone.

Philadelphia.
