You plop little kids down in front of a TV they will set there and watch without saying a word. Give them space, books and rudimentary tools and they will invent their own games. Giant scoreboards, sound systems, and light shows are impressive, but they are like giant TV sets in the living room. I realize even kids of college age are conditioned to passively depend on their electronic toys, but you aren't going to liven up that section by entertaining them.

Was the rationale provided?

Stone age here. You just flashed your student ID and walked in (hoping they wouldn't check under your coat or inside the sleeves). Winter Sports Building and Ralph I. Don't know when that changed.

Man, he had a wonderful demeanor.

Don't forget the availability of high quality, low cost TV and streaming coverage.

They've always preached hard work, but this year the players have to recited 50 times before they go to sleep: " I will shoot the puck IN the goal."

1. UMinn 2. Wisc 3. UMich 4. BC 5. BU 6. Tech (nostalgia) 7. Cornell (nostalgia and great program). 8. NY Rangers on the Coulee (Lammy family in stripes)

Adding pain to pain.

Fear not; we will not exploit your youth and inexperience.

Don't remember that and never heard of it. I do remember the fog that would develop when the place got full of warm bodies.

Dam. Some crazy times in the Barn. So cold, you just had to be filled up with antifreeze.

Sorry--gotta ask. Are you Andy?

I was back at UND for most of his time here. Not only great talent, but a class act all around.

Well, it was a little lame.

I'm afraid our scoreboard will be fully operational when your Minnesota friends arrive.

Karl is from Apple Valley. Is he likely to improve recruitment in the Twin Cities?

Dam. If my folks had just named me (pick one). I coulda been somebody.
