How about for under achievers - Malcom Parks - I beleive he was a first round selection who was very average.
-
He played a little over ten games one season in the mid-80's. I believe he scored a couple of points. I think he transferred after his first season, but I'm not sure what he did after that.
He became a Bronco (by transferring to Western Michigan).

Ya gotta love a kid who thinks that ND has "trees galore"

Campus actually has a significant number of trees.
Of course, that there are more trees on campus than in the rest of Grand Forks County is a whole other story.

I pick up my handy-dandy UND all sports pocket schedule and what do I see:

Vermont
Canisius
Peers indeed.

Considering the early signing period starts in under 24 hours ....
"Gentlemen, start your fax machines!"

UND should be pretty busy considering what they will (and may) have to replace:
Brandt
Canady, Fylling, Genoway, Massen, McMahon
Fuher, Jones, Schneider
and maybe Stafford or Greene (or others?).

(I also posted these observations in a different thread.)
Anybody else surprised that they didn't swap the seeds to avoid the first round conference foe match-up? They do that in DI hockey, but apparently not here.
UND, St. Cloud, Michigan Tech: the WCHA side of the DII football bracket?

... also Gunhus from ?
Moorhead Park Christian (or is he at Fargo Oak Grove)? If it's the Gunhus I'm thinking of it's one of those two Christian high schools.

I think rube means World Junior Championships games.

I'm just glad that he is alive and that it is expected that he will be able to walk.
Excellent to hear!

I think I should be the only one allowed to comment on things here.
All hail Diggler!
(then genuflects toward the mark of Diggler, namely the Trucker Mustache avatar)

Is Brady Murray too old this year?
Yup. He turned 20 in August.

The current USCHO.com Question of the Week asks: "Which program has the best track record when it comes to alums succeeding in the NHL (top 2003-04 performers in parentheses)?"
I question whether a program can be credited with "alums" succeeding in the NHL when they only spend a year or two with the school...any thoughts?
Ask Maine fans about Paul Kariya.

"Advice"?
I asked questions in this case.
Got good answers for those?
PS - Thanks for the "silence is golden" advice.

Doesn't everyone carry an (albeit shaky) Dutch to English dictionary with them?
Son of Tony 'Calimero' Palmiscno signs with Flyers
Vadeko Flyers have reinforced themselves with the Italian Canadian (Canadian?) Tyler Palmiscno. Tyler is the son of Tony 'Calimero' Palmiscino who formed a dangerous combination in the 1977-78 season for the Flyers with Leo Koopmans. The last four seasons Tyler played for the University or North Dakota (UND). In the distant past father Tony and uncle Steve played for UND and Tony ended up playing an important play role in the choice of his son. Tyler is beside Don Nichols and Robert Starke on the third line(?).
Tyler, born on 27 December 1979 at East Grand Forks, says he's a hard working attacker who does not shun doing the dirty work to clean up. A very useful player for any team, which fit perfectly in a line with real goal getter on its right. He who the goal getter will become is not yet clear, President Gerd Lindemann is still in negotiation with the Oleg Timchenko.
Did the best I could with what I had.

Bandwidth issues right now (and I generally avoid 'DAY for KVLY-TV and KFGO-AM). Hopefully later.
Phil Harmeson's a pretty logic-based, but close to the vest, guy. If that's his sentiment he must have based it on something he's found. I guess I trust Harmeson's judgement. (He's never given a reason not to.)
PS - I'm sure you knew this already: Harmeson is UND's NCAA Faculty Athletics Representative and has the title "Special Assistant to the President of UND".
-
Let's say you have a good job already.
A reporter, say married to someone looking for a job with the nearby big employer, asks you on camera, "Hey, I hear the big employer offered you a job."
1. How do we know what the reporter "heard" is reality?
2. If it is true, would either party, the employer or the person, want to admit it publicly when the offer hasn't been stated publicly?
3. How would answering the question affect the person's current employment status and co-workers?
The question/situation has some feel of a "Would you like to put your foot into this open bear trap?" feel to it.
How would you respond to such a question?
I don't envy the position of Thomas or Harmeson right now.

Voting for mascots?
Is a big douche or a turd sandwich a possible choice?
(We'll find the 'South Park' fans pretty quick now.)
PS - Sebastian is cool.

Isn't Roseau in Canada.

Hakstol caused Roseau to flood .... wherever it is.

Thank goodness they didn't do a replay of the radio presentation of "War of the Worlds." I'm afraid some of our posters might have evacuated town and headed for who knows where to get away from the invading aliens.
Hakstol is conspiring with the invading aliens!

I keep seeing people talk about the main arena and the olympic rink. Which one does the hockey team play in ? Thanks.
REA is now really a three facility complex:
The Ralph - 11406 seats, 200x85 ice, primarily for hockey, can hold over 13000 for basketball
The Olympic Arena - maybe 1000 seats, 200x100 Olympic-sized ice, primarily for hockey practices (when going on road to play on ice that size) and some womens games
The Betty - about 4000 seats, basketball and volleyball
