If I had to guess I would say Luapsided is alot younger then him. I haven't seen lives start calling people names. Luapsided just doesn't bring anything to the table except insults, I would say he should ban himself if he can't add anything to the discussion. Personnaly I don't mind lives posts because it spices up the arguements and makes them less boring to read.

I at first thought what he posts is flat-out ridiculus also and then I actually thought back and although he seems to take it way over board, he makes some interesting points, I think he might need to tone down some of the stuff he says, but I don't mind reading his stuff. I think the key like JK said is take it with a grain of salt.

This last years elite 2 team has players on JV and a bunch of very average players.

Who said he sucks?

?Good post? Do your parents know that you're on here?

You could be the stupidest person on this board. READ YOUR POST what do you think I was refering to. GPR's goals or SOUTH"S goals. Please apoligize to all of us.

A couple not so good goals? What game were you watching? O, sorry they did reload. I mean their team sprung right back to where it ended last year. Their offense is down their Defense is down and their goaltending is way down. What makes you think the reloaded?

Ok I realize you are alittle biased so this might not due any good, but think about this you lost a large part of your offense (Campbell cousins), by Far your best and the only respectable defensman on the team last year in Andy Peterson, and your best goalie by a long shot. What are you just going to reload? I mean seriously if GPR isn't down I want to know what the definition of down is. GPR is soft in all aspects of defensive hockey. GPR will not be a factor with their goaltending and putred defense. South on the other hand has the Goaltending, They definatly have holes and their strength is not their defensmen only a moron would think that. If they are going to get it done it is all about their goalie. BTW north is brutal, they have a snowballs chance in hell of finishing ahead of my alma mater Central. If you had any credibility before that statement it is long gone now.

They didnt lose any talent last year, I think they will surprise teams towards the end of the year.

I attended my first high school hockey game in the John E Carlson Colisium, I guess that's one good thing about going to Concordia lots of hockey to see Jets, Cobbers, HS. You can tell GPR is down this year... They have poor goaltending and shaky defensman. They are deep upfront but they have trouble breaking the puck out. South looked alittle shaky at times also, They showed signs of losing all of those seniors also, Their goalie played very well, He made alot of very nice saves or this game could have been much closer. As expected the state looks to be down this year, with only 3 juniors returning from the top 25 in scoring last year. Are any teams not down from last year except Wahpeton and Devils Lake and Central?

I think he meant the fact that Brian Gionta his teammate and former rival has 3 times as many goals as Zach. That would be why hes doing only ok.

I'm sad to say this but I would be surprised if he is in the NHL at anytime during the next three seasons, You have to remember it's a different game now with the new rules gone are the days of clutch and grab there is much more emphasis on skill... I think a few years in the AHL will help him with his footspeed and ice vision...I hope I am wrong and he gets in right a way but I just can't see it happening.

Well ladies, This is the last post for X2thez. I will be leaving the great town of Grafton and moving to Rio de Janeiro, I hope to be able to help stop the worlds illegal drug rings at their source, but I hope to be back to vote in the 2008 election. I'm sad to say that i'm giving up the shop to my cousin from Grand Forks recent graduate of Red River. I hope this will give him a good start as he is coming off a long and painful re-hab stint ( cocaine, yes it is still a big problem). The thing I'm going to miss the most is going out for a brandy and crumpets after our home wins.

Where to start..... - I was speechless when I saw how this was sorted out... A central player smokes the south player (who is celebrating the goal) from behind directly into his goaltender, The referee sees this and acknowledges this and gives him a penalty, He then gives the south player a major for running into the goalie?? I'm curious how this peon got the nod to work the state tournament. - Another very questionable call came in the Spoilers game against RR. Some player with fairly weak skills appeared to trip over the blueline with about 2.5 min left in the 3rd period and Some GF ref decides to try take it out of the kids hands right there. ( but fails obviously). This happend to be the second game in row that RR was givin a powerplay very very late in the game on rather questionable calls. I was so devasted for the boys after this game because you hate to see a team lose on goal that clearly shouldn't have been allowed... really too bad. -It will be interesting to hear the comments or lack there of, from the RR players/ parents / fans that have graced this fine site over the past few weeks.

-I have never in my 22 years of hockey experiance seen an unprovoked slash.... my "guess" is that the North player was being a little *****, so wurden let him have it. - Let's drop this subject because I like many other people on this site weren't at the game so we are just speculating. - I'm hoping I can make it down to the thursday games. I told some of the boys I'd make it down to their game, but the Ram 2500 has been alittle flakey as of late so, I'm hoping it warms up so I can drive the Trans-Am down. - I had a few of the players stop in for crumpets sunday afternoon ( they are fantastic ask around for them if your ever in grafton). They seemed fairly confident, they said that if their on thier game they can contend.

Tron this site would be better off if you stopped trolling around here. please don't come back on here and start coming after me, all I'm trying to do is stop this fight.

For all you home owners out there this is where your property tax goes.... trying to not be political but if you truly graduated high school the GF public school system owes you, me and everyone on here an apoligy. ponder the following as you re-read your post..... Move the game to fargo or a neutral site and lets see how many of the GF hopeful make the trip. Also, the all GF final looks alittle bleak unless GFC can work out some of the kinks in it's armor... i.e 4-1 loss to WF and a 3-2 double O.T win over Jamestown. GFC's road to State.... Lose to the 4 seed beat the 8 seed in double OT and squeak by the 6 seed. WOW it's safe to say that they are rolling and they WILL NOT CANNOT BE STOPPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While he who shoots top shelf may have a point, I would doubt GPR tanked the game hence the fact they played two overtimes, but I do understand why Shanley then WF would be a more attractive road to the state tourney then South then Central. Dave K this is the reason why they would want to play WF over Central or Jamestown.... They have a 10-0 edge on WF and a 7-4 edge on central with a loss, they have a 8-6 edge over jamestown with a loss. To sum up, they didnt throw this game but I'm sure they knew that it was a preety good worst case scenario.

My Biggest's of the 2005-06 Regular Season Biggest Surprise- Chris Watlend and Aaron Roland of Whapeton outscoring the leading scorer on Central, North, Shanley, Jamestown, West Fargo. Biggest Disappointment- North's inabilty to score Biggest Fan of- Thomas Campbell or Andrew peterson Biggest Upset- Shanley-4 Central-3 Biggest Turnaround- Central Biggest Stock Improvement-Tyrel Mcbain Biggest Chance of Winning Mr. Hockey-Paul Campbell Biggest Chance of being Coach of the Year- Al Henry (Devils Lake) Biggest Rube on Sioux Sports- WWPKD, Junior24, tron3050, (He who shoots top shelf/SkatesHattrick), (Specifics/ Undhockey22), Lives-to -play-hockey, GFRR11 ( #1 Rube). Biggest Asset on Sioux Sports- Ndpride or Wilbur Biggest Topic Currently on Sioux Sports- 2005-06 ND Highschool Hockey

I'm VERY surprised to hear klenow is going to the Jets (if what you say is true). It will be interesting to see how fits in with the Jets, I think the game might be a little bit to quick for him... i maybe wrong, but this is what I gathered in the one time I've seen him and the one time i've seen the Jets play.

6-2 Red-river, Grafton had a chance to tie it in the first but One of the campbell's missed a great oppurtunity, after that it was all red river. Dissapointing way to end the year if your a spoiler fan but I can still see the spoilers making some noise in the tourney.

Yes, I should be able to give you a report although, I ussually go out for some brandy after big GPR wins. ( Yes you heard it here first.

Your forgeting that he doesn't exactly fit into the new nhl. there is much more emphasis on talent and footspeed. No offense to him, but he isn't the fleetest nor does he have exceptional hands.

Previous games this season would deter one from coming up with a conclusion such as Mihulka or Galbreath getting eight points in one game. Also it would be nice if you all could argue in a more civil manor, we wouldn't want this discussion board to be shut down this close to tourney time. Stop ripping on Ndpride, he is one of the few legitimate sources on here. I personnaly can't see North, South, or Shanley play unless they come to town, so it's nice to have him on here to fill us in on the games from fargo.

It's nice to see one Red river player has some class, as for the rest of you fools, your making yourselfs look really bad not to mention embarressing your team. With that said lets get back on track, I heard that EDC tourney will not be held at the Ralph, NDpride you seem to be very knowledgable, do you know why this is?
