  1. Toilet bowl standings as of right now:

    3. Shanley: Whap derailed their "dream season" , I wouldn't be surprised if they drop their next meeting with the blades in Whap.

    2. Whap/Breck: They have an impressive 5-4 win over Hazen-beuhlah, They ran into some tough luck against the better teams, but kept it closer than one may have expected.

    1. Hazen-Beuhlah: This team could run it in reverse, They already passed two big tests by dropping games at whapeton and at home against bottineau. If they can servive a few more tests: At Bottineau and two games with Mandan we may have our "dream season".

    Other notable team: Mandan this team is unpredictable, I am hoping they don't step up and blow a game vs. hazen.

    A number of folks on this board have noted your continued negative comments and disrespect for players and teams. I would just like to join the list of those who are tired of reading your childish comments. Things must be uninteresting in your life if your only contribution on this board is to run down teams that are just trying to enjoy the game even though they are not posting many wins. I think it is a credit to these teams to work through seasons like that. They don't need to hear your

    depreciating commentary.

  2. Your acctually right!!! all of a schools sports transfering confrences has to do with whether there hockey team is expected to be good the next year.

    It doesnt have anything to do with the two schools agreeing to rotate its confrence every number of years, its all about argueably the states 4th most popular sport and whose going to be better!!!!!!!!!

    Eye ahgree wit 'livs-two-pay-hokey' al skools due wat hee sade. Inn evry confrence two.

  3. At the F/M Jets invite camp ND/Northern Minnesota boys do well as Team Red backstopped by Beau Christian of Moorhead (and 6' 5" Martin Iberer of Austria Jr. A) defeated Team Black 5-2. Team Red had goals from Nick Klenow (Fargo), Robbie Phillip (Thief River), Marc Mihulka (Grand Forks). The invite camp continues through Sunday with the All Star game. Other notables in the tryout include: Jeff Foss (Moorhead), Tyler Swanson (West Fargo), Brooks Dezellar (Holy Angels), Dayn Belfour (Victory Honda AAA), Grant Larson (Fargo South), Keaton Smith (Holy Angels), Kevin Jones (Duluth Marshall), Ian Stauber (Duluth Marshall), Jack Connolly (Duluth Marshall), Bho Olson (Holy Angels), as well as many others. Most of the returning Jets are there (or potentially returning depending if they jump to the USHL). These include Paul Weisgarber, Chris Connolly, etc.

  4. for all you know the minnesota team was coming off a long night filled with binge drinking and illicit drug usage. 2-1 or 3-2 that story may be warranted, but because team mn didnt show up until the 3rd period and still won by a touchdown doesnt give much credibility to your story.

    I think it is a great story. Top Shelf your first sentence is nonsense - bantams drinking and using drugs - check that list of kids. Hopefully you are joking but your comment adds no substance or facts but detracts from a good group of kids. To credibly indicate that the Minnesota team did not show up - you would need some evidence to support that statement and unless you were there you have no credibility but plenty of unsupported theory to minimize an accomplishment.

  5. Siouxsports is a diversified board that includes many different topics and many different sports. If you review the board listings you will see football, basketball, and other sports. The lead thread today has a link to GPA info on Sioux players in every single sport at the University - tennis, golf, hockey, and even - soccer. In the UND Community section you will find diverse topics and different sports discussed from time to time. The thread we are currently in is entitled 2005-06 ND High School Hockey and there have been references to sports that other hockey players have done - e.g. Marto for football and baseball, Dingeman above for baseball, and as I noted - Klenow for soccer. A lot of readers find additional info on some of these athletes to be of great interest. When Sioux recruit Mike Forney of Thief River Falls is discussed, in other threads on this board, as a great quarterback with multiple football D-I contacts people don't come out saying, hey this is a hockey board - knock it off - it is not right to say that here.

    Lighten up and open yourself up to a little more info about some of these players if it is given.

  6. He played on a crappy team that couldn't score and only had 1 line.

    That is basically a good assessment of his team this year. The year before North had a much better team. After the 04-05 season Klenow was the sixth leading scorer returning in the state (35 points) behind Paul Campbell (52), Tom Campbell (45), Andy Dittus (42), Paul Moch (39), and Marc Mihulka (36). In addition, all of those players were in more games according to Center Ice magazine. Paul Moch from Mandan fell out of the picture in 05-06 as Mandan had a poor team as well. The remaining top 25 scorers for 04-05 who returned include Paul Weisgarber (35), Erick Galt (34), Adam Campbell ((34), Brett Ritchie (33), Tyler Klein (30) and Zach Miller (30). Klein and Ritchie also had poor years as the former was also at North and the latter played for a very weak Jamestown team. The team you play for means a lot, especially in the East Region. Regarding All-State, Klenow made that team for soccer. I think there are a number of North Dakota high school hockey players who ended up under-rated because of the teams that they played on.

  7. N.D. boys take second at Showcase

    By Tribune Sports Staff

    BENSENVILLE, Ill. - Team North Dakota posted its best finishes ever in both the boys and girls divisions of the Chicago Showcase hockey tournament - and the boys came within a goal of winning the prestigious tournament, which includes some of the top high school talent in the country.

    The North Dakota boys stunned previously unbeaten Pittsburgh 4-3 in Sunday morning's semifinals.Then in the championship game North Dakota rallied from a two-goal deficit in the final four minutes of regulation before falling to New Jersey in overtime, 3-2.

    North Dakota had never placed higher than third before this year.

    On the girls side, North Dakota had never advanced beyond the quarterfinals. This year it got as far as the semis, where North Dakota fell to Illinois 5-2 in Sunday's semifinals.

    "It was a good showing all-around," said Bob Gillen, the former Hazen-Beulah boys coach who served as assistant general manager for the boys team.

    Bismarck's Ross Monson had two assists in North Dakota's semifinal win over Pittsburgh, setting up the first goal and the last.

    The game was tied 2-2 early in the second when North Dakota scored twice just nine seconds apart, getting goals from Fargo Shanley's Marc Harrie and Red River's David Hovet.

    Frustrations boiled over at the end of the game as Pittsburgh - which was hit with a misconduct earlier in the game was assessed with six 10-minute misconducts, five game misconducts and a match penalty at the game's conclusion. The North Dakota players kept their cool and did not get any penalties.

    In the championship game, Tony Principato scored two third-period goals, breaking the scoreless tie.

    Fargo North's Nick Klenow sparked North Dakota, scoring a short-handed goal with just 3:56 remaining. Paul Campbell of Grafton-Park River then tied it up with 1:15 left in regulation. But Principato completed his hat trick at 6:46 of the 10-minute overtime session to clinch the title for New Jersey.

  8. Maybe it is time for a little humor so I thought I'd reflect on the posts of the past few days and try and enlighten everyone. Here is what I came up with:

    Weel, eye haed read al theese pots peopel haed wretten bout the james ate da Reelp ahhrena and eye watch gmes two. Keds tri herd two won and skore in da nett. Eyue wnt me teem two won ale there gameys and mace al toorneyment two. Eye donut kare howe them wine butt jist beet da ather teem. Eye ahgree mit oldd aluminum wehn hee sez two pley mit klass. Eye doneknoww iff any playahh kan ery tyme here, as oldd allumna sez, in ppost #2282, "little sioux student crowd wiht teh sieves."

  9. ya they lost..... I've been to all of their games... You are obviously from Grand Forks... A "Neutral" site for the tournaments. right. anyway they did play bad are you scared that they can still compete when they are off of their game?;)? I would be too especially with home ice advantage in every big game of the year....

    Sorry but I am not from Grand Forks. Yeah, I'm scared. Actually, I'd like to see some sportsmanship from that team regardless of how they play. South does a lot better on their home ice, not fair that they have to play a Grand Forks team in Grand Forks, opps I forgot, I guess they lost at the Coliseum too - ohh well, I think they had a bad game there too. :D

  10. It doesnt matter how bad your team played, as the head coach you are an ambassador for your team to the press and it sends a pretty bad message when he is too immature to comment on the game. It's that kind of thing that probably influences why the Forum covers Moorhead hockey more than FSH. If a proffesional coach ditches a post-game press confrence they are hit with big fines, if you cant handle the heat, than get out of the kitchen.

    I agree with QBEagles it is too bad that there is not more sportmanship from the top. As for the comment of cory1 about south playing one of their worst games - well, that is the kind of whinning you hear all the time from south fans when they lose or do not win big time - we played badly blah, blah, blah. Well maybe you played badly because the other team played better, your kids did not produce on that given day, maybe they choked, or are too cocky, etc, etc. South is great for excuses, excuses, excuses. Too bad the leadership at south cannot provide a better example for their players at this important stage of their lives. It will be interesting to see if south is able to win with class or not. A lot of hockey fans are asking that question. :D

  11. I too was at the game and i must say it was a good game for both sides. Each time is very even in my opinion..Did they quit giving sportsmanship awards for the region tournament or is that alwasy been state and they didnt name a east region tournament MVP but i guess we all know who that would of been. I belive it ouwld of been Marc Milhulka, cant say enough about this kid 3 straight hat tricks and one against the the 2nd best team in the state (Fargo South). BTW why do they call him ten bears or did i hear wrong. Who do you guys think would of been the tournament MVP? Im surprised there wasnt that many people there for south but i guess the drive is jsut too exepnsive with gas. Also i was talkin to some security guards who I believe are beign told to take the fun out of cheering. THey told me they took away 5 cow bells on thursday and 3 air horns too. All of these though were tookin from the Red River student section. I thought the refs made some bad calls but i guess they cant make all the calls and i bellieve those peopel who say the Ref's favor GFRR are saying lies but it looekd to me liek tehy were on the side of FArgo South but that just could be me. Looks like theres gunna be an all east region semi's this year again and maybe even a all GF final again for which im hoping for cuase of all the poepel that go to the games. I remeber last year they had to oepn up the top seating becuase of so many poeple were coming in.

    Before your next post you might want to vist this site as well as several others that offer more of the same:

  12. A few observations on posts over the last few days. When Junior24 made his original post he had the spelling "Weisgarbage" as that is what I saw in his original post as I was online when he posted it. That post was changed shortly thereafter but my feeling is that his original spelling "error' was caught and those who cited him did not tamper with it - just my view. The original "error" (putdown) of Weisgarber came from Jagrfan around Feb 7th when he referred to the south player in that way. Stars9 has no disrespect for Mr. Weisgarber as the context of his posts on this thread clearly show. Now, tron3050 has not been a core contributer over the season but jumps in, starting in February, with a combination of player putdowns and an attempt to analyze. We would all be better off if the childish attacks would stop. You have to ask yourself what your putdowns really accomplish. These sorts of comments just show that some people are too immature to handle discussions on a high school hockey thread. The anonymity of this type of forum is too much for some and the cowardly nature of their comments is clear to all reasonable contributors to this thread.

  13. As we look at the high school hockey thread we se several categories of posters. We see people who try to provide information without tearing people down and then we see the category of one or two post wizards whose main goal is to proclaim their team is the best, their player(s) are the best, or their town is hockeytown USA. We seem to have another poster (tron3050) in this latter category. You have to wonder what motivates a person to jump into the thread to spread that kind of talk. Hopefully we will not be burdened with too many "one" and "two" post wonders who feel we want to hear about the big axe they have to grind at someone else's expense. :lol:

  14. Well lets hope this guy isnt a 10th grader. If it is he must go to Central because RR doesnt produce any one this stupid.

    Why would someone from Central want to post about Red River players? Sad deal that kids from Red River have to be embarassed by comments like this. It really makes some of the kids in their program look like a joke which is a slap in the face to the top players on Red River's team. I would guess that this guy is probably someone's little brother and could be in elementary school based on the spelling and grammar errors. This whole thing detracts from an excellent hockey tradition at Red River. In addition he can't even spell the names of the players and he claims that "Melon sucks". I guess my only question would be as to the type of melon - would that be a cantalope or maybe watermelon? I think from what I have seen of one of these players he may have some future in golden gloves - great boost to your team to get a game DQ but I suppose if I were in elementary school I might think that was cool.

  15. As I stated earlier, it is harder to keep a high save percentage when facing as few shots as these guys do. Also, I dont know if this is the case for Deichert, but RR gives up alot more breakaways than they create. For some reason they have a knack for giving up breakaways against teams they are dominating and as a goalie it has to be difficult to not see a shot for 8 minutes and then be faced with a clear breakaway. It is hard to say how these goalies would do if they were playing for a team such as Wahpeton or Jamestown, but you also have to realize that those goalies have been facing 40+ shots per game their entire careers which undoubtedly helps them develop as goalies. Rosendahl and Deichert have probably averaged less than 20 shots a game since they were 8 years old, who knows how good they would be had they been facing twice as many shots their whole life.

    Or, who knows how poor of a save percentage they might have if they had faced twice as many shots.

  16. It doesn't go by how many goals are scored, it goes by goal differential. South will need to win by 3 if RR only beats grafton by 1 to tie in that category as well.

    You are mistaken - go to NDHAA web page.

    South beat Grafton 2-1. (2 goals)

    RR beat Grafton 4-1. (4 goals) RR is +2. (goals scored)

    If South would win Thursday3-2. (3 goals) They would have a total of 5 goals scored.

    RR would need to score 2 goals in their next meeting with Grafton and of course win, and they then would have a total of 6 goals aginst Grafton and would win tie breaker rule 6-5.
