The Sicatoka

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.

Wingels should've gotten a minor for the elbow the Marner's head. The head snapped back. Now if Kadri wanted to "deal" with it he should've invited Wingels out, dropped gloves, and settled it. Instead Kadri will be wearing a suit, for running a guy, for at least two games is my guess. The problem? If Kadri had challenged Wingels right there, Chara would've stepped in. The issue wasn't with Chara's (clean) contact and Zdeno didn't see the Wingels elbow to Marner's face but Chara would've stepped in. It's what he does.

Masterfully played.

You do realize you just contradicted yourself.

( Hang the curve and someone will hack at it. )

Sometimes (at least I hope) some are just doing this to Mafia:

Don't call an NLI a "contract" else the player would be ... < wait for it > ... under contract. <-- PROFESSIONAL! It is merely a "binding agreement" ... "Binding Agreement" FAQs. In any other context a "binding agreement" to provide a service in exchange for something of value would be a contract.

Found it. I now agree with your numbers.

I have four discrepancies. I show Sicatoka, Engineer, Fader, and ShawnJV each as 1 point less. I can't find it in mine.

moser, Again. At risk of repeating myself. What are you, you personally, doing to make Grand Forks a better place to live? Kvetching on the radio, and kvetching here, is the direct opposite. Show me the business and jobs you've created. Heck, show me how you've improved someone else's business in Grand Forks. Have you gone and lobbied at the Legislature about your concerns? Or just even show me how you've volunteered with a Greater Grand Forks group to make Grand Forks, well, greater. I'll hang up and listen. < dial tone >

Where's Fetch fit into the mix?
