Here are the "Hockey's Future" reports on Travis Zajac and Kyle Radke.

YES! Good concept: Start at Massen's; end at Fylling's.

I'm with PCM: Pass. If I want to see B) or C) I'll look into the student sections when the puck is in play. (Now I'm in trouble. )

OK, .... Moreland needs to get to the weight pile and on the bike* (avoiding GF potholes and we'll call avoiding the potholes "agility training"). Current and prospective members of the team would be well advised to do the same. The bike is great work for hockey players: legs and cardio. Matt Moreland, et al, are you listening? * Cross country tour with rolling land? Why not offer them the scenic beauty of a bike ride from Baldhill Dam to Kathryn? Or how about Bismarck to Washburn up 1804? A ride around the Bully Pulpit Golf Course at Medora?

You've convinced me. A steady round of that regimine, including the bike, for all of them! PS - GF is an nasty town to ride the bike in. You never get to coast (rest) because there's never a downhill.

6' and 165? May I recommend the steak dinner, the protein shake, two-liters of water, and a two-hour session with an iron pile? Repeat daily until at least 185.

The Horizon League gives "the cold shoulder" to South Dakota State University, similar to what the Missouri Valley Conference did the week before. http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/sports/8941972.htm

The 1987 and 2004 teams each outscored their opponents .... by more than they allowed the opponents to score!

You only get points for either Indoor or Outdoor Track, not both, and you get the points associated with the higher finish (indoor versus outdoor). NACDA scoring system. As far as GVSU's womens tennis or GVSU in general: They don't need more points.

Congratulations to UND Athletes for finishing fourth nationally and as the top NCC school in this year's NACDA Director's Cup. http://www.fightingsioux.com/sports/news/r...RELEASE_ID=3017 Now we just need to take care of those confounded Lakers ..... PS - Congratulations to GVSU (begrudgingly).

sprig: Your wish is my command. From http://www.forecaster.ca/hockeynews/hockey...t-Profiles1to25 Stafford is listed at 12 in the link.

The AAU is the Amateur Athletics Union (not to be confused the Association of American Universities).

Too bad NDSU is newbies and has nothing "DI-AA" to say to them.

Hockey is a team sport. Team first. Then individual honors.

I believe that's the last time the MacNaughton Cup has spent a part of a summer anywhere in Minnesota. 1998 North Dakota 1999 North Dakota 2000 Wisconsin 2001 North Dakota 2002 Denver 2003 Colorado College 2004 North Dakota Heck, the State of Minnesota has to rely on UM-Duluth in 1993 for the last full-summer MacNaughton sighting!

The 1997 University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux Mens Hockey Team - WCHA Regular Season Champions - WCHA Tournament Champions - NCAA Champions The "Trifecta". I think there's only one greater feat: "The Hrkac Quad" from 1987. - WCHA Regular Season Champions - WCHA Tournament Champions - NCAA Champions - Hobey Baker Award winner* * You need solid supporting cast (linemates) to win a Hobey. Somebody has to bury your assists and you have to bury what you're given.

Hot against whom? - The #10, #4, and #2 teams in the WCHA, or - the #16, #8, #4, and #2 teams in the nation? Best of the best when it mattered: There's the point. However, your agreement has me seeing that UND's 13 WCHA regular season banners are nearly as stunning of an achievement as the 7 National Championships.

University of North Dakota Mens Ice Hockey NCAA National Champions: 1959, 1963, 1980, 1982, 1987, 1997, 2000 NCAA National Runner-Up: 1958, 1968, 1979, 2001 Other NCAA National Semi-finals appearances: 1965, 1967, 1984 NCAA National Appearances (all): 1958, 1959, 1963, 1965, 1967, 1968, 1979, 1980, 1982, 1984, 1987, 1990, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2003, 2004 WCHA Regular Season Champions: 1958, 1963, 1965, 1967, 1979, 1980, 1982, 1987, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2004 WCHA Tournament Champions: 1967, 1968, 1979, 1980, 1987, 1997, 2000

I like the previous answer a whole lot. Then again, there's always room for more of those banners. I've said UND should hang the seven WCHA tournament titles it could lay claim to. This is how it was explained to me: You hang regular season banners to show that you were the best during the long haul, over the whole season: Proven performance, no hot goalie weekends or fluke goal wins gets that banner. Winning a national title shows that, at the end of the season, you were among the best of everyone out there and beat them at the end. The best of the best, and the best of them all, matters. What's the WCHA tournament title? It's not the long haul and it's not the largest (and best) field that you're playing against. To win a WCHA tourney you need to be good for nine days and you'll be playing against at least one team that isn't near "the best of the best" (a non-NCAA qualifier). Anything can happen in the WCHA tournament (just ask Wisconsin this year or CC from a few back). Being tops amongst your peers over the long haul or being the best of all in the field at the end is noteworthy: Hang it.

I'd have to agree with your first sentence. His "trash containers" experience served him well seeing how comfortable he looked cleaning up in the Bison backfield.

Feel better? Done ranting? Now go and read what I posted in this thread earlier. Be sure to read and understand the UND Athletics budget (linked to in that thread). The prices have to be set so the bills can be paid. You don't have to like it but it's the reality.
