Ouch, If the NHL ever resumes, I liked his chances of getting ice time in Columbus but I doubt he will ever get that chance with Detroit. Unless we see replacement players next season his NHL dreams may be just that.
Gee I hadn't thougt of that. Oh well if you info is correct success must be paying off for them as I only counted about 15 or 16 Pie fans at last years Sioux games in Denver.
Sioux 7 is right just look at the various site predictions USCHO, INCH. In fact your question should be has anyone found a writer outside of GF who has picked the Sioux to win. If this isn't enough motivation for the team what is?
Spoken like a true Goofer interested in watching his team compete on a even and level playing field. Your ceiling would have about the same number of banners as CC if fairness had been a league or team priority.
That is correct and compared to their previous years stats in order to fully appreciate that these individuals took one heck of a step backwards. Fortunately for us we are playing a team in the Dogs with the same problem, players such as Caig. So whose underachieving seniors want this weekend more. Answer that question and you can bet money on the outcome.
Yes he did and it was a low key statement to the media. He might have waited longer but he was getting hounded by the Major Junior team who owned his rights in the Western Hockey League and decided it was best to state his intentions for next year and get it over with.

Some young players think they are bigger than the game or the team itself and I think it was part of the problem with Vanek. It has gotten so bad that some even think they are worthy of their own press call or conference before they even play a single game. I am glad that we haven't seen this disturbing trend creep into the Sioux dressing room yet, and that despite the hype that could have been generated the Toews family has done their best to keep their son's decision low key. The Parise's were no different.
