UNDMOORHEAD

What's the old saying? Don't put your fate in someone else's hands. UND needs to make it so the committee has no choice, but to put them in the playoffs.

Stewart and Gonslaves never became as good as I had hoped they would. Stewart was the fourth overall pick the year he was drafted and Gonsalves was a top 3 prospect for the Twins at one time.

Anyone care to offer a summary of the good and the bad so far tonight?

How's the Pinto line been playing?

Where did I say that was a rule? Nothing but my opinion.

When you've played less than twenty percent of your total professional games in the NHL I would not classify you as an NHL player. This is just my opinion. I also did not do the math on the percent of games played, but I'm sure I'm pretty close.

It was Carter's first game in ten months coming off an ACL tear. I hope his comeback goes well.

I've jumped out of a plane a few times, but wouldn't consider myself a skydiver. Not trying to be a d!@#, but agree to disagree I guess.

What constitutes an NHL player? One game played?

One could argue that as it currently stands Jordan is a bust. Only two first round picks from that draft have played less games in the NHL than Jordan. While a number of players taken after him have played more games.

He has very few games played in the NHL, especially as a first round pick. Here are the numbers for the 2012 draft class: http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/draft/nhl2012e.html

If Brad were worried about scoring and getting experience for the forwards, Casey Johnson wouldn't play every game.

SR- C. Poolman, A, Peski, C.Johnson JR- G. Bast, M. Kiersted, J. Rieger SO- JBD, J. Tychonick FR- E. Frisch I'm thinking Frisch will get some playing time for both the short term depth and long term benefits. If no one leaves early you'll have to bring in at least two defensemen next year. Rieger hasn't played a ton in his time here and depending how this year goes for each guy we could lose two or three underclassmen. So getting Frisch in there as long as he's not hurting the team maybe very important for next year if they have bring in three or four freshmen.

I like the idea of dressing 7 d-men. I think they'd all be better defensive options than Johnson. Also any of the 7 should be able to fill a fourth line forward role should a forward get hurt.

8-1 Michaud from Caulfield and Hain. I love the fact that they're not playing prevent defense.

I'm guessing either to get Frisch some playing time or some kind of minor injury.

Caulfield and Frisch in, Keane and Tychonick out.

Casey Johnson

I'll tell my wife I'm not the only one that does that.

They can take all of their frustrations out on ISU

According to my wife most of her hair is extensions.

Schloss said in the chat tonight "that he appears healthy and has been practicing."

Schloss said he wasn't injured in the game day chat vs Manitoba.
