Wow...I didn't know that Brian Lee was born in Berrien Springs, MI and drafted by Anaheim in 2002! And yes...he does look different, doesn't he?!

Thanks!...but what tiny box? At the top it says "Select Team Channel", but when I go to a team I still don't see how can I watch today's pre-season games. I'd like to check out Toews and the Chicago game.

If anyone else has this email or knows how to do this, can you post out here telling where/how? I went to NHL.com and if I click any of the headings such as News, Scores, Standings, Video, etc. I get a message that it's trying to download a file instead of taking me anywhere. Anyone else having this issue?

Will the numbers be on the front of the home jersey or away jersey? If I'm not mistaken, the NHL will be going back to whites at home and darks on the road (FINALLY!) and in looking at the Dallas jerseys it looks like they have room for a number on the front of the dark jerseys.

That would be SWEET! Sign me up for tickets right now!

Sorry if my original post was confusing. I understand that they didn't need to put him on there because he is a lock. That was my point...

I notice on the Blackhawks website they have a poll: Which of these rookies would you most like to see on the opening night roster? - RW Mike Blunden - C Dave Bolland - RW Troy Brouwer - RW Jack Skille It's nice to see that they don't even need to include Toews on that list!

DaveK...I've read a lot of your comments on different threads in the past and have never replied, but this one is amazing. Fighting is absolutely horrible in hockey, but if anyone complains about Ulf Samuelsson kneeing someone else and ending their careers they are "crybabies"? I will just assume that you're kidding and just trying to rile people up on this messageboard. I also know now by your comments that you like hockey and you like the Sioux, which is great, but you never played hockey at any competitive level worth mentioning. If you don't like fighting in hockey, that's your opinion...whatever. Not everyone likes fighting or thinks it belongs in hockey and you can feel however you'd like about it. I don't want a hockey game to be fight after fight but I do believe that fighting does have a place in the game. As has been mentioned earlier regarding the Greene/Paukovich incident...Paukovich got what he deserved, and he knew it was coming one day. Now the 2 are teammates (or at least playing in the same organization) and will put it in the past. They shook hands and was reported that they went to dinner afterwards (true or not) but it's over with. If I'm playing hockey I want Greene on my team and DaveK on the other team.

Wow...now that is cool! I hope he does well. I saw him at the CanadInn about 2 weeks ago...I hope he wasn't "pushing the fluids" too hard!

Speaking of...where/when will SS.com merchandise be available? I heard each current SS.com member will be given both a free hat and t-shirt...you know, to wear and advertise!

I just checked the Wiki tab, and it looks great - I can see it now! Earlier today I was online and checking at work, and now I am at home, however both places have the same operating system and also running IE7, so I'm guessing it'll be fixed tomorrow at work, too. Thanks!

Whoa...it gets even better! If I'm on that page and I left-click as if to highlight lines, I can drag over the page and see a headline with a paragraph below it. This must be the content on this page, but it doesn't show unless I click and drag over it! Weird.

You have to believe me...I'm not trying to be a huge pain in your rear today...just trying to help you make the site as best as it can be! When I click on the Wiki tab above, it's still a blank page. I see the SS.com logo, along with 2 ads in the upper right. At the bottom there are 6 buttons - Show Pagesource, Old Revisions, Recent Changes, Login, Index, Back to Top. The middle of the page is blank.

Is there a reason why when I go to the Wiki tab I see some text for a split second and then the page goes blank? What is the "Wiki" page? What should I be seeing here? Is there something I need to do to get this to show? I am using IE7. Thanks!

Just a question that I have after reading through all of this. I can understand that you want Hakstol re-signed...I get that. What I don't get, and haven't read (unless I missed something) is why all of the animosity towards Buning? I do not have any inside information like you all do, and I also am not up to speed on Buning and Buning's history at UND. What is his deal? I haven't read any concrete examples that would make me think this is not going to get done. Has Buning done something dumb in the past? Has he not extended someone's contract that should have been, or has he extended someone's contract that you feel should not have been? Along the same lines...why all the frustration with this situation? Again...I do understand that you'd like Hakstol to be re-signed. It would have been great if he would have been extended last year or during the offseason, but do you have examples of why you think this may not get done? Have you seen Hakstol and Buning arguing in the hallways at the UND athletic offices? Have you overheard Hakstol say that he won't re-sign here because he's frustrated with Buning? Maybe I'm missing something here because I don't know Buning's history, and yes, it would be great if Hakstol was re-signed already, but I guess I just don't get why a few here are so angry about this. Now, if it doesn't get done (very doubtful) then I understand...but could you give us some information if you know anything so we understand why you're taking this position?

Wow, that seems like a VERY lame reply! "Great idea...sorry, we aren't going to help you get this off the ground because our glow stick promotion was lame...good luck." Seriously...that's all the effort they'll put into this? I hope they don't take any credit when WiSioux has done all the work and pulls this off!

Can you explain for those that may not be as smart (such as myself) what the heck happened in this video? The guy is sighting in a gun and shoots it, but what comes back and how does it come back to hit him? I see it skip in front of him and then comes up and hits him in the side of the head!

Thanks for the info...I see a nice hoody and pullover that normally cost $70 for $8.50 and $14.50. What's the catch? If I enter my credit card information am I going to be a victim of identity theft?

ESPN fantasy hockey article preview for next year - take a look at Chicago. I can't wait to see what Toews does this year in the NHL! Rookie of the year??? Offseason Notebook: Young guns in the West

How is this for a hockey fix: 2007 West Regional I just watched it and got goosebumps!

So for those of us that have DirecTV, are we screwed as far as TV goes? The webcast of games that was free last year will cost $ this year right?

Wow is right! Kids used to play games called "Peanut Butter Panic"?! Now they play games where they drive around a city and shoot people, rob banks, and pick up hookers...what the hell has happened to us?

Doesn't St. Cloud own the title "State of Hockey"? After all, they did win the 2006-07 DQ Cup!
