The Sicatoka

I'm not saying QB is not important in the larger picture. However, what I am saying is right now on UND's roster it's not my greatest concern. PS - Martin Brodeur, Patrick Roy, and Ed Belfour would like to schedule a conference call with you later today.

Kennedy: 20 months on the job and being sought by headhunters for larger universities. Jacobs: Another year at the GF Herald. Been there since last century I believe. Did the NY Times, or even just the KC Star, call him?

Ray, I agree with your all your numbers except for me (25) and Engineer (27). Me I have: Carlson 6, Forsberg 3, Karlsson 1, Kucherov 6, Kuznetsov 2, Malkin 3, Subban 2, Wheeler 2 Engineer: Burns 1, Butcher 2, Crosby 7, Hall 5, Hornqvist 3, Josi 2, Kessel 1, Malkin 3, Matthews 1, Subban 2 Best as I can tell, I'm the only player with Wheeler; Engineer is the only player with Butcher and Hornqvist and Kessel Help.

Exactly. That's what Jordan Greenway is for.

I respectfully disagree. I'd say: 1. Offensive Line 2. Defensive Backfield 3. Specialists (punter and kicker) We have a QB who ran Sac State (with big numbers) two years ago. We have a decent juco who spent a year at EWU and was our #3 last year until he forced the then #2 to be exposed (and who has since moved to WR). We have a freshman pushing the both of them. And we have another incoming juco QB. Something will rise to the top of that. The pure competition for the spot will force it out. We are far, far better off at that position today than we were a year ago. And we are better off at QB than at ... Specialists. On the roster today we have a redshirt freshman kicker and no punter. I write that and wonder if Specialists shouldn't move to 1 on my list. No, wait, even if we had the 1983 Washington Redskins offensive line, offensive line would be 1 on my list.

Ow.

My motto: Under promise; over deliver.

I'm setting my mascot expectations in line with my nickname and logo expectations: Low, so they're easily exceeded.

Just beat these guys. Admittedly, I kind of like the middle one as mascots go. Beat that and I'll be impressed.

Would including tertiary costs like: - one coaching staff instead of two - not having to use (rent?) the GF tennis center - not having to use (rent?) King's Walk - a comparison of travel (two teams vs. one) change the math significantly?

Is there a consolidated list of early departures somewhere?

Matt Murray did what he had to do: weather the first 10 minutes of the game on the road.

Doughty didn't react to what happened (Haula/Kopitar) and he was right there. With the way they allow gloves in the face in the post-season, will they look at Haula's glove/stick? Plus, if DPS looks at Haula they have to look at the cross-check (driving man to the ice) immediately before it.

Fabulous question. I don't know. Does a minor's parent sign it as well?

I said we should've changed the nickname to "The Mafia".

Who reviews the hit? The Department of Player Safety. <-- key word Was that hit necessary to the course of play? If not, it is unnecessary and can be argued as dangerous play. We live in a post-concussion world people.

The Kadre hit had three factors that earned it three games: - the head - the boards - a defenseless player who was having no impact on the course of play at the time The Perry hit only has one of those (defenseless) but I do believe it will garner a one game based on ... Doughty got one game for this hit. It only had one of those three factors (head).

Sing it Mary ... Sometimes you're the windshield, Sometimes you're the bug ... Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger, Sometimes you're the ball

I've seen that out of Hakstol teams before ...

Goon, the word you're looking for is "defenseless". That's the word the Office of Player Safety will be using. And it fits on a couple levels: - 68 was standing stationary in open ice, defenseless - there was no need to apply that contact to someone without the puck; choosing to make the hit is defenseless Perry will probably get a one game.

Because it might actually gate some revenue? Yes, pure speculation, but the WIH numbers are not much of a target to try to exceed.

Well, ... yes. It's the old, single-word answer. Travel. Bus leagues are cheaper than having to fly everywhere.

I'll try to get to this on Mondays. Here's what I have on the morning of April 16th (please verify/find my errors) 40 - George M. Bluth 38 - Goon 35 - stoneySIOUX 34 - Ray77 31 - sioux rube 31 - Siouxper Dave 26 - andthehomeoftheSIOUX!! 24 - Fader 23 - Petey23 22 - The Sicatoka 21 - Engineer 20 - 90siouxfan 20 - Shawn-O JV19 - MafiaMan19 - Shawn-O 8 - 90siouxfan's buddy Alberto's JV Additional stat: Total points of all players chosen by all game participants: 104 <-- That'll help find mistakes.

You're "apart" of the %gobc? When'd they kick you out if you are "apart" of them.
