This would fit nicely in the former players thread!

And tell him to say that he missed games for personal reasons perhaps? Hard to say . . . .

Psychiatrists are medical doctors. I don't know if he was suffering any physical ailments, perhaps smashing into the net banged him up, but if physically fit, he wouldn't likely be visiting a "regular" doctor.

I agree. The fact that implies some mental health issues. (Note it says doctors, not doctor) It clearly appears that he doesn't have any physical ailments that would require a doctor's visit, if he was just dinged up he would say so. And I would venture a guess that he wasn't meeting with a cardiologist or peditrician or dermatologist, etc. . . . .

I did take that into account, but didn't have time to research WCHA league membership all the way back to 1948, sorry. Michigan has won nine titles, how many as a WCHA representative, I have no idea. MSU has won two, in '66 and '86. In '86, at least, they were members of the CCHA. The point was more about HE's lack of titles. Read the sentence above as it applies to WCHA teams, the same would apply to teams from all other conferences. The point remains, in the grand scheme of things, HE has not had much success winning ice hockey championships.

Recently and historically. This year's will be the 58th NCAA ice hockey championship and obviously a WCHA team will win it. That makes 30 of the 58 championships for the WCHA and five of the last six, if my math is correct. By my count (taking into account that some of the eastern teams may have shifted conferences in the past, which I am not aware of) the number of titles are: WCHA 30 CCHA 15 HE 8 ECAC 5 From a numbers perspective only, there is quite a disparity between the WCHA and the eastern conferences. In fact, historically, HE is more on par with the ECAC, even though I don't feel that it is hockey-wise anymore. But, even if one combines the two eastern conferences, the number of titles falls short of those earned by the CCHA, which has half the number of the WCHA. Titles

Wow! Impressive recap. Thanks for taking the time to post it.

Doesn't that fit the definition of trolling?

MM, Talks of a baptism, two hours to get ready, and now a smurf avatar - are you going soft on us? Bring back the edge and the nice pics!

It takes you two-three hours to get ready for a baptism?

schmidtdoggydog, driscol and three others - Holiday Inn, downtown.

Ah, RW77, we all know you set up your Chris Harrington cardboard cutout right next to all your Mapletoft posters. There is no point in trying to hide your adoration.

Who isn't in this game?

I join in that statement.

Actually, it is Campion. I don't mind Campion and feel he is one of the better refs in the WCHA, but that isn't saying much. Of note, BC had to kill a roughly 1:30 5 on 3 in the first - we (Sioux fans) haven't had to watch many of those this year.

Puck drops at 3:30 cst.

Hmmmmmm

He is ambulatory already? That is amazing!!!

My bad. I think Radke has a very nice future and I look forward to watching him throughout his career. Either way, the point remains, if Greene doesn't return and Bina cannot play, as a whole UND is very thin, inexperienced and quite young at defense next season.

Dagies, very well stated!

I don't, but I just watched part of that game again, and the goal was very sweet, or as Wooger said, "glorious!"
