Who is producing the broadcast/which channel on DirectTV?

Maybe we'll be healthy by then!

Oh, I forgot to pick for Sat, because if I get lucky enough on Friday I'll forget to pick for Sat...... For Saturday I pick......Nelson

Rowney

Thank you! I was hoping somebody would!

No, if they didn't want to fight they played hockey at Minnesota.

He called...I wasn't home. Probably best for both of us....

Good for Hak to send a message to the team, and publicly, about what is appropriate behavior.

I don't think it's automatic that schools are just pulling scholarship offers to players. I think we'd find that there's communication about what they need to do in order to earn that spot, and ramifications of not following through, etc. I'm sure there are differences in opinion on whether a school surprised a player or not, and I don't know what goes on behind closed doors.

I agree with you only to a point. I agree with the idea of using the "threat" of going to college to get a better CHL deal as fair business. But committing to a university scholarship, giving your word, and then later backing out may be considered "fair" in love and war but really it's not ethical. Changing your mind, legitimately, is one thing. We don't know his motives but we see enough of this where the end result are trades to preferential places that we can only assume in certain cases the university scholarship was used as a pawn. And that's not ethical. It's just not.

I can only see that in terms of a body, not in quality....

One guy has head coaching exp in the NHL, one doesn't. For an interim that's probably logical.

I can tell we're not married...

How lucky are we that things are so good with our favorite hockey program that we feel the need to spend so much time complaining about power play clocks and HD? Yes, I'd REALLY like the Sioux to be broadcast in HD too, now that I finally moved into this century and have my own HD tv. I realize how awesome it is. But let's face it. Grand Forks is Grand Forks. It's not a big place with a ton of $. I love it. I'm proud to be a UND alum, I'm proud to tell people I went to college in Grand Forks, I love coming back each year for a series of hockey and to reacquaint with old times. But Grand Forks is who it is. There probably isn't enough $ for some of the really nice things. The only reason we have such an awesome facility is we were lucky to have such a passionate alum/donor, who cared so much about the hockey program. Without that, we would have to complain about the quality of our facilities too. And without the commitment to the program would we have/keep such a good coaching staff? Me? I'm looking on the bright side. Happy to just be watching the games from my home in the Twin Cities.

sent you a PM

Still looking to see if anyone has 2 tickets for the MN series to sell. Please contact me at dagies@aol.com or PM me. Thanks!

Hi A friend and I are planning a trip to GF for a hockey series and are looking for tickets to EITHER the MN or Mich Tech series. Need 2 tickets together, both nights. Please PM me or send a message to dagies@comcast.net Thanks!

I don't remember exactly when it happened but he had a shoulder injury at UND as well.

Wasn't Mitch originally committed to Princeton or somewhere like that out east? Then changed his mind? I could be mistaken.

I can totally understand other schools not being satisfied with the tourney in one location every year. On the other hand, the schools should be very happy with the attendance history here, and that may be an important factor as they start up a new league. Even without MN in the tournament, there's a chance of very good attendance. Whether last year repeats itself in the future, or not. Not sure if there would be a reason to shop around to other locales if the X isn't available. Why wouldn't the Target Center be acceptable? If Mpls/St. Paul is a good location, it shouldn't matter if the event is at the X or at another venue, should it? I realize there will be the awful stink of NBA basketball in the Target Center, but certainly they could leave some hockey equipment out around the building to purge that.... From a personal standpoint, I very much hope it stays in Mpls/St. Paul. But that's totally a selfish opinion...

I'm also looking for 2 for the gopher series. Please PM if if you have any you are trying to get rid of. Thanks!

I'm also looking for 2 tickets to the WI series. Please let me know if you have any you are trying to get rid of. Thanks!

That's pretty good. I'd be all for it if he was still the top guy, and alive.

I'm going with Parks

Thought I was at the game at SCSU last year...
