The Sicatoka

You’re further from Moncton than me. News takes longer to get to you.

Four words for those folks that they forget: Eye. Eye. Etch. Eff.

CZE cashes 2 on the major and still :34 left on it

CAN takes a 5 for contact to head. Nose and lip cut. Clear head contact in replay. CAN fans in disbelief.

And of course CAN has some kid named Connor Bedard. 3-2 CZE Next goal in this one is going to be big.

So the CAN defense scheme is to give the CZE LD that half the ice to walk in and short side a goal? 3-1 CZE

I want the best player on the roster at the position on the field. (Note I said nothing about age or class.)

CZE 2-1 CAN after 1 CAN too cutesy with two “Mike Legg” attempts that each failed.

Caveat emptor.

USA 5 LAT 2 Final

Berzens (LAT) looks like the real deal in net. Gonna be a Black Bear.

2-2 Soft soft soft USA defense in front. LAT shooting 1.000 this period (2 shots, 2 goals).

And that includes strength and conditioning coaching.

Then someone forgot to tell Austria.

Is there no mercy rule? It is SWE 10 AUT 0 and SWE is on the power play with 12 to play. Why not running time? Why not a max victory is 10 goals in the standings?

I’ll drive the extra miles to Knights in Riverdale.

The RB and QB were my two that I really wanted signed.

The other guys have three: two from Fargo Davies and one from Coleharbor. And if you can drive to Coleharbor without GPS or a map I'm proud of you. (Most people drive right on by.)

Everybody is good at something.

NDSU and SDSU are big mean bullies on the line*. Thus, and frankly, UND needs to quit being nice in the trenches. UND needs to learn from that and match that level of intensity, strength, toughness, and endurance. *that is a compliment

I see some bigger frames. Now can we build them out and get them stamina. I'd like an OL of five diesel engines: start 'em, keep 'em fueled, and they run forever, and over anything in their way.

" ... 23 of the 26 signees will come to North Dakota from the high school ranks, while also picking up three through the transfer portal." I do count 26 in the UND release. I count 22 guys coming out of some "HS". Dakota Collegiate is a grade 9-12 in Winnipeg: HS. There's 23. Check. The other three are from USD, UNM, and UManitoba. If the numbers are correct it means you have to "portal" from UManitoba (a non-NCAA) school to UND? I knew you might have to go through Portal*, but use the transfer portal from UMb to UND? *Pembina would make for a shorter trip.

Respectfully disagree.

No idea.
