hockeyMom, i know a very good massage therapist who has "fixed" many patients that chiropractors couldn't PM me if you are interested and i will give you all of her information

SO WHO WON THE MAN OF THE YEAR?? It was supposed to be announced yesterday, and i can't wait any longer!!

i don't know about anyone else, but that game worn "stink" brings back many memories of my playing days. They say that smell is the best trigger for memory...

god forbid

HAHAHAHA NASCAR SUCKS!!! as for the rest of your post, you're an idiot. Grand Forks is a great place to live, grow up, be a part of. They created new rules in the game because of Parise and how nobody could stop him without mugging him. Oshie deserved that award and even you aren't that stupid to think otherwise. Winning percentage doesn't mean s&!t when the Gophers blow an opportunity to make it better/worse by being the number one seed and losing to a 16 seed. (never been done before which makes it that much better for sioux fans) YOU are the troll over here on OUR website trying to tell US that WE are a bunch of pathetic losers...... back to my original point...NASCAR SUCKS, and YOU are the pathetic loser.

russ parent, different era, different game larry olimb and mike crowley, different system where banging wasn't a big part of their game curtis murphy was 5-10, but he was 200 pounds of bowling ball. the bigger you are in a system like UND's where banging around in the corners is a big part of your game, size matters for many reasons, winning the battles, durability, reach, easier to force forwards to the corner, durability, and durability. (especially in this system)

6 degrees of separation is more like it.

that's called an agenda, also known as politics, also known as horse s&!t

let me throw this into the fire: as far as all four of these players own threads....Zajac close to signing, jpar likely gone, staffor makes the jump, and smaby is gone......Sparky in europe.. has the original poster been wrong yet?? let it play out, stop being pansy's about losing players.

especially when nobody is buying the merch at first and continues to wear their sioux gear to the events in a slight form of protest to the actual changing of the name. my 0.02 i do think that UND needs to, at a very minimum, take a stab at suing the NCAA for their stupidity and sheer bullying because they think that they can get away with it. It's about time someone stood up to them on this issue and handed them their ass on a platter. Since court is what it's going to take, that's the route they go. don't bow out before all options are exhausted.

i got the joke, i just wanted to FINALLY contribute something of worth to this board.......

Redwing, you took that out of context, i didn't mean short rope as in one bad game and done, but phil is sitting there itching to get in, and if he does, and plays his ass off, he could become the man. I'm not saying this would happen, but when manny had a bad game or two, roly played the next couple before manny got another shot. I would love to see parise as the #1 with a spot start here and there for whomever is the backup, but we know that's not how it's worked in the recent past until the end of the year. I agree 99%. read above for my take on the wild goalies. the one % i disagree is that both goalies have the capabilities of being a show stopper. I think that jordan has all the tools, hell we've seen it for three years. I think the only knock on phil is he's a headcase...and that can be fixed... and the rest of the tools are there for him too. Would you consider Elliot a show stopper? i would, it doesn't mean that a bad game doesn't happen. I honestly think that if jordan had the defense in front of him this year that he had in zach's last year, he would have signed already because his numbers would have been THAT much better and we wouldn't be having this argument. I have never once blamed that game on Parise. I feel that they finally played their age, not their ability, and BC took every advantage given to them. and it was still a close game. I think that we are in agreement that Jordan should and will be the man if he does in fact stay, I just feel that if Lammy get's any kind of sustained shot at playing time, he could make the most of it. You know as well as i do that college hockey is a "what have you done for me lately?" kind of a game when it comes to the end of the season and playoffs are on the line.

i guess i just feel bad about someone doing something for their own enjoyment, showing people, and then they all start asking for more stuff, that's all. I didn't want boge's to feel the pressure to do it and be a dick if he didn't want to (which i'm sure wouldn't happen, but could) i wasn't trying to bust your balls too hard.

in all fairness to the guy getting lambasted, sparky could plaster someone with their head down......although they do fly A LOT farther when smaby does it....

do you think you could do one for jonsie, and chorney, and maybe sparky too?? cmon guys and girls, let bogey boge (that name kicks ass by the way) do the ones he wants to do and when he wants to do them. I know that they are awesome and he does such a good job, but to have everyone request one of a different player and somewhat expect boges to do it, just not realistic. Let's let boges do them at will and enjoy them when he posts them.

here is a link from the paper. it doesn't go into the exact detail as gordweiser, but it's close enough.

if jordan comes back, he's not going to have toooo long of a rope to hang himself with. even though lammy hasn't showed his full potential, he is going to be given more of an opportunity next year if jordan isn't stellar. That said, I think it's going to push jordan THAT much harder to be the best goalie in the land. His future in hockey depends on it. On the flip side of that, I think that lammy's future in hockey depends greatly on what he can do this upcoming year and his senior year, so it behoooves him to be an absolute rock in the opportunities that he is given. If jordan leaves, lammy is the man bar none, walski will get some time, but he is still basically a freshman(practice and eligibility aside). if this is the case, then lammy is going to have to step up and show everyone that he can be the man, which, for him, means get his head on straight. In the games he gave up a weak goal, his confidence went out the window and he became more and more frustrated. I hope that he works his ass off to turn that into more determination to stop everything and anything coming his way. This is going to be a better team next year with the defensemen we have coming back a year bigger, stronger, and experienced, but goaltending is still going to have to step up big and be a factor game in and game out. The offense just lost two of it's best and even though we might not be done losing players, you can't replace that with what we're bringing in, and there is always going to be the possibility of needing to win 2-1 ,1-0, 3-2 games. It should be fun, and definately interesting to see what happens the rest of this off season and how next year unfolds. I know my butt will be in my seat at the ralph cheering on these kids as they hopefully improve on what they accomplished this past year.

just for the record, he CAN NOT be drafted. But, for his sake, if he gets offered something this offseason, he'd be a fool not to take it. If he's not offered anything from anyone based on what he accomplished last year, he can't afford to have a mediocre season next year, anything short of a repeat of this season with a national championship added and he won't be offered anything. Just the reality of the situation.

yeah, but that's ALOT of talent to lose early. Two of your best set up guys/goal scorers/leaders, and unarguably the best defenseman on the team this past year. throw sparky into that mix and the very very very mild possibility of toews leaving, that would hurt.

I promise!!

there, fixed it.

Graham Kracker took some liberties

Yeah, but than you have THAT Union all over your ass looking for help with pensions so they can retire at 40 and wealthy rather than 50 and wealthy.. (I shoulda been a railroad worker )

"on the record" is about as official as me saying that i'm gonna try out for the sioux next year. all it means is that if there have been offers, they aren't good enough and they are working on it, the only thing that will matter is who shows up for captains practice and who hak says makes his squad. i apologize for this all being one big quote as it is several different peoples posts, but there are different levels for different years of draft picks because they were signed under the old cba, new draft picks 05 on up are all subject to the same terms. as far as free agents go....my understanding is they are subject to free agent minimums based on number of years in the league, years with a team, among other variable, but the high end for these college players being undrafted free agents is lower than those drafted
