UW men's hockey: Highly touted Gagner headed to Badgers
The spotlight shining on the future of the University of Wisconsin men's hockey team added some serious wattage this week when high-profile center Sam Gagner made an oral commitment to the Badgers for the 2007-08 season.
If he's so great... how come I haven't heard of him? Was UND looking at this kid at all?
I've also heard this around campus... I heard that Walski was going, which I assumed meant that Parise wasn't. I'm not sure how accurate it is, but it seems to be headed in that direction...
Just an update for everyone living outside of Grand Forks... in the Herald today there was a short blurb on Parise:
"UND goaltender Jardan Parise's status for this weekend's series against the University of Minnesota is in question as a result of an upper body injury he suffered last week.
Parise did not play last weekend against Alaska Anchorage.
UND coach Dave Hakstol said he had no comment on the injury, and Parise's status will be re-evaluated later in the week.
Philippe Lamoureux recorded his first career shutout Saturday in a 5-0 win against the Seawolves If Parise can't go against the Gophers, Lamoureux would likely be the guy.
The third goaltender on UND's roster is freshman Aaron Walski, who hasn't played a collegiate game."
I don't think a hip flexor is considered upper body... and I don't know if they would refer to a concussion as an upper body injury... any other ideas as to what happened?
penalty... tripping... first of the game, that's impressive... not sure who it's on
wow... UAA announcers making fun of North Dakota... they live in Alaska... like they can talk!
The UAA announcers are complaining that they've played five periods against the Sioux and there have only been three penalties called... it isn't fair... haha
dang...
that was a fun question though... I actually had half a chance.
Don't know much about SSM but it must be a pretty impressive team... some amazing players have come out of there
