"Hey... these guys can play. And this thing's far from over" ~Iowa announcers

The offense has been moving the ball well... but 4:53 left... have any of our drives taken that long?

Do you go for two to make it a three point game?

that's definatly not good... anyone know how much time is left?

Time for the defense to step up... perhaps a turnover!

Why didn't you ask for Chappel sooner?!? haha!

defensive timeout

They are busy talking about what's happening around UNI campus... so not a whole lot. They were talking about the Sioux earlier and they are impressed. They didn't know we were going to be this good

What do those two numbers matter as long as our number on the scoreboard is bigger than theirs?

Congrats!!!

Wouldn't that have been a great first day of class... to have the Stanley Cup show up.... I'm jealous!

I'm not to firmilar with the NTDP, but will Kristo be on the team that the Sioux play Dec 1st at the Ralph?

Eades to coach USA at Three Nations Sioux assistant Cary Eades was named head coach of USA's Team White at the Under-17 Three Nations Cup in Rochester, N.Y. Congrats!

I guess I'm out of the loop, I missed the fact that Bohmbach was already going to UW. I'll admit that I didn't read very much of the article...

I'm reading the printed version of the Wisconsin State Journal and there is a short article on the Under-18 World Cup and the Badger prospects that are going to be in it. They mention Brett Bruneteau... "At least one other pmember of Team USA will be monitored closely by UW coaches. Bree Bruneteau, a 17-year-old center with Omaha of the U.S. Junior Hockey Leahge, has expressed an interet in the Badgers, for 2007-2008. According to his father, Rick, he is considering seven or eight schools. He is also attracted to the Western Collegiate Hockey Association..." It also mentions that UW lost out on Ben Winnett who said Wed that he will play for Michigan in 2007 I can't find today's article online, perhaps it will be there tomorrow, but he is an interesting one. Talks about some recruits that UW is looking at, and some that they have missed... perhaps we have interest in a few of these? I haven't heard many of the names here... anyone have any info on them? UW men's hockey: Two recruits still on horizon

Here is the email that I finally recieved: July 27, 2006 Dear Ms. Lobdell, Thank you for contacting me about the use of Native American mascots at schools. It is good to hear from you, and I apologize for the delay in my response. As you know, the National College Athletic Association (NCAA) recently decided that universities could only participate in NCAA championships and host championship events if they do so without Native American references on their uniforms and associated athletic program activities. However, the NCAA makes exceptions for universities who demonstrate that their nicknames are not a direct Native American reference, or who have received permission for the use of the name and mascot from the tribe with which it is associated. The Protection of University Governance Act of 2006, H.R. 5289, prohibits any non-governmental entity that regulates intercollegiate sports, such as the NCAA, from penalizing or denying any benefit to an institution of higher education based on their name, symbol or mascot. If passed, H.R. 5289 would override the NCAA's decision. This legislation was referred to the House Education and Workforce Subcommittee on 21st Century Competitiveness, of which I am not a member. Rest assured, if this legislation does come to a vote, I will keep your thoughts in mind. Again, thank you for sharing your views. Your opinion matters to me. If I can be of service to you in any other way, please do not hesitate to let me know. As a result of the anthrax incidents, all mail sent to Congress is first irradiated. This process causes significant delays. To ensure the fastest response, I encourage all constituents who have access to the internet to contact me through my website at http://tammybaldwin.house.gov. Sincerely, Tammy Baldwin Member of Congress

I haven't heard anything, but I just wanted to point out that it's Erik Fabian... not Eric

I'm even more excited for this upcoming season than I was before, if that is even possible. IS IT OCTOBER YET?!?

I think this may be my favorite article yet. As much as I'd love to see Toews in the NHL, I think I'd love to seem him there in another year. Although by no means is this anywhere near offical... I like the sounds of it.

http://www.gfheraldsiouxhockey.blogspot.com/ Here is some info on Porter's time at camp. Lots of compliments from all around

I read about this article on USCHO lastnight. They definatly do not paint a good picture of Kessel. See post #334 Here's basically a copy of the article... Another thing, about people saying that we aren't going to be very good this season or whatever, what we they thinking at the beginning of last season? I wasn't on here then, but I'd have to guess that with two seniors and 13 incoming freshman not all the thoughts were Frozen Four... what's on paper and what really happens are two totally different things. I say send Toews back for another year!

Didn't they also say that UND and Maine would be there as well? I believe Ben Bishop (Maine goalie) is a Blues prospect as well...

I also looked at the depth chart for Ottawa, and it seems that they only have two goalies... and then four goalies at the prospect camp. Seems like someone's gotta move up
