Fun to watch. The guy will be a GIF sensation.

Heart just bleeds for the Motzko family. Saw Bob posted a message on Twitter a little while ago. A tough future ahead for their family.

Don't have much of a basketball mind, but its fun watching the teams they play try on defense and move the ball with more than one pass per possession on offense.

USA basketball lost....(crickets...) And they can't even blame Kevin Love!

Glad that Blake went later. No pressure on him to bolt unless the kid goes crazy his first few years in Grand Forks. College hockey not as wide open as when his dad played so I don't see him going quite like his dad year one, but should be an All Rookie team guy.

Interesting round 2 ahead in the draft. A ton of good Europeans available. Can't believe Raaty hasn't gone yet. Morrow should go soon today. Some have him dropping a bit to even where he possibly could go after Johnson. I'll bet Morrow goes first but I'm wrong a lot.

The matinee to the big show. Not sure if the Preds are a sellout per night type team, but I imagine a lot of green and white yelling for Brock and Rocco.

A Bismarck kid.....but a legacy. You'd have to go back to James Massen and Quinn Fylling (I think) for the last time a Western ND kid played for UND.

Don't hurt your arm patting yourself on the back. Good selections by the team.

Looks to me like they valued a big, quality d corps over goaltending at this point. I still think they should have taken Kaapo from Minnesota.

I agree. Definitely confused with some of those selections. Ohh to be a fly on the wall in those meetings.

I'm not even a huge Wild fan and I still can't forgive them for the trade they made with Vegas that year.

Hak.....effff......why not Stecher?

Price is from Vancouver. Much closer to home then Montreal. I don't think the Kraken want that contract, but you never know. If he gets selected he's going home, if he doesn't he's the hero that saved Jake Allen. Win win for him.

Hearing that he's headed to Northstar next year. Definitely a DI hockey prospect.

Should have known that one. His kids definitely on scholarship.

Good question. Has a university employee ever had a kid on the team? I'm guessing that has to be a yes.

How cool would games at Aldrich be for them? That place would rock. UND-St. Thomas should get into a scheduling relationship and meet at the X for a series every year. I bet you'd see 10,000 plus. Not sure how big the Tommies fan base is.

I'm in the same boat. Is 35 the absolute highest number they give out? *Edit* Did the research and it appears to be 35.

Alright....another Central goalie wearing #1. I think Johnson will rep #6 well, big shoes. 16, 18, 29 will take some time to sink in (sigh...Gooooch) A Schmaltz wearing 8 helps, a Bast not wearing #2 won't help. Over under on roster checks into November December is at 20. Wonder out loud if UND ever will expand into the 40s or beyond with numbers.

There is literally zero reason to like that city.....

My God Kepler.....there has to be a team willing to take him. Just a lost cause in the outfield. Does not hit enough to be a disaster in the outfield. *Then hits an oppo homer to give hope.

Woof....Sano. 9.2 million next year, and 14 million the next season. They wouldn't be able to trade a bucket of BP balls for him at this point..... Maybe find a dump trade team for him and see if Cruz wants another season but at 10 or less a year.

Kepler, Donaldson, Cruz, Rooker, Simmons, Colome. Miranda is ready to play 3rd. Gordon can fill in until Royce is ready at short. Kiriloff can be your every day first baseman. Get something for Kepler before its too late (Sano). For God sakes....get some starting pitching. Future lineup. 1. Arraez-LF 2. Polonco-2B 3. Buxton-CF 4. Sano-DH 5. Miranda-3B 6. Larnach-RF 7. Kiriloff-1B 8. Gordon-SS 9. Jeffers/Garver-C

Sigh.....you're probably right. Would be cool for them to play a northeastern team in Phoenix. Every time we play golf in AZ the father in law and I get matched up with someone from Boston, Philly, NY, Jersey, etc.
