I kid because I love. And I do love Kleven's game; I just wish he'd be a bit more disciplined.
One of my earliest memories of Sioux hockey was watching Jim Archibald being skated over to the penalty box by a referee. And it seemed like every time Archibald was on the ice, he ended up going to the penalty box. He seemed like a man among boys sometimes. Kleven reminds me of Archibald a little bit, even though Archibald was a forward.
For funsies, I looked up Archibald's stats. Look at those goals...and those penalty minutes.
