Thanks for some great stuff, farce.

I thought talking more shat than sport was part of every good rivalry.

From that diving backcheck in his very first game against Manitobe, I've always loved Trupp. But watching these archived games, I feel that way even more so. He just never quit skating.

Win in regulation. By at least 5

Magician that you are, BH, can you change the outcome of the 01 championship game? I know we can't win em all, but I'd like to see Goehring do that little skippy thing a second time.

It's been great, blackheart. Thanks again. Who would have thought UND would win all these big games in March-May of the same year. I would guess it's somewhere back in this thread, but can someone post the tic-tac-toe play? I've seen more amazing individual plays but never a team play like that. At any level.

My kingdom for a video of Bill Butters going after fans at the SW corner exit off the ice at the old barn (coal plant corner). Prequel to the water bottle fight. Woulda been the '71-72 season, I think. Not even Blackheart can pull this off.

Wow. Whole package--skill, work ethic, character. Sounds smart, too.

I should probably try to get my hands on the penalty box bench now that my wife wears the stripes in all home games.

Are you guys talking about liability insurance or insurance for income lost as a direct result of natural disasters, such as the cancellation of the season? Something like professional athletes do to insure against their own injuries. The latter has to be very expensive.

Would see him at the handball courts at the fieldhouse. He could play.

Yeah, we had plenty of time to watch those games we wanted to watch. Thx B;ackheart

Watching the old games, I was reminded how Oshie had that lumbering stride. He even looked heavy on his skates, yet he could cover ground.

The boy with the magic wrist shot.

I think you have brought us more than good memories. So much is said on this site about the the players, the team, and the game relative to what it once was. Watching these games from different eras and coached by different coaches in serial fashion really helps with perspective.

He looked good, didn't he? Could turn on the jets. And the Cooperalls Driver wore. Never seen those in a college game before--and only a few in high school years ago. A little surprised Bob Johnson allowed it, but I guess it says something about the man.

It sounded like it was the Dane County Coloseum.

Watching these old games you really notice how actively involved the fans are.

Yeah, good for him. Hope he blossoms there.

Probably, but you have us as company.

Time and space. So much goes into creating that in addition to the physical gifts.

Siembida played great, but that was one sloppy hockey game.

The wonderful thing about Kawaguchi's near miss on the Hobey is the contrast to his first two years and the improvement he's made. He's always had talent, but things just didn't click for him until this year or the latter part of last. The decisions he makes on the ice have improved dramatically. Next year should be a treat.

This thread is predictably a model of good sportsmanship.

If the forwards play their role, which I think they will. Watching those games (all winning, which makes them easy to watch anxiety free), when the team was strongest, our forecheck and backcheck game was amazingly good. Other teams just could not get comfortable. It made our D game easier, and I think it led to more scoring from D, who skated up into the play a lot.
