Is someone with gfhockey?

Where was Larry from, brian? Never mind, I see Flin Flon.

Sigh . . . my wife.

I have a lot of old water bottles lying around.

A daughter attended Emory, which is in N. Druid Hills, which is not as close to downtown as it looks, if you go by driving time. Alpharetta is a haul from the city, but the money in that town is north and west (Buckhead).

Post grad. Online with ZOOM lab classes with my wife as Bucky stand-in. Got my arse kicked every time. Give me a real Badger.

I ran into Eaves once at a fundraiser golf event. The event was over and we were both going to our cars--he with his wife. I disclosed that I was a Sioux fan, but he was surprisingly engaging. After 18 holes and an obligatory speech on a very hot day, he could have been short, but he was very pleasant, and it seemed genuine. But then, my water bottle was locked and loaded and he knew it.

Hate to see a grown man get all blubbery like that. Well, maybe not hate . . .

Wonder if he played hockey in the DL barn.

Looks like getting Heil is a big time accomplishment.

Culture development liaison.

Especially relevant for the young group coming in. We should probably expect less O from our D, at least until the break. Except on PP.

His ETA?

They have good team speed and some scorers on offense this year, which should earn opponents’ respect, which should be a good thing for the young D while they get used to the D-1 game. Speed really helps the back check too.

They have recruited well this year, but this coaching staff is still on the hook for my overall negative feelings about my life. A few honest-to-Parise chippahs might change that, so long as they win it all.

Your mind vs. your heart, brian? David vs. Goliath?

Pretty much. They have the talent and coaching to make the tourney and possibly have some success there. On paper. Never know.

Enough top end talent to go the distance. Goaltending

Alas, the hip check, a thing of beauty, chased out the door by the interference call.

I thought the BU call was offsides . . .

I hope BB hasn't completely abandoned his grindah-first approach.

That and going undefeated this year. Dam, things are looking sweet. Might be the best August 1st ever.

who's the new Sid?

I'd sure be delighted to get a Trupp.

OK. So who fills the Hrkac, Toews, Oshie, and, especially, Trupp roles?
