Considering the consistently poor offiiciating I think that we shouldn't give the power play teams any more advantages. If all the penalty calls were legitimate that'd be one thing. But in the WCHA you get too many phantom calls.

Finley improved greatly during the season. He's going to be great.

He's done better lately but he certainly hasn't set the world on fire. Currently he's -5 and eigth on his team for scoring. That's not bad, but when you consider that he's come on since Christmas you can't say the first half was that great. He's still a couple years from his potential imo.

True story. I was hosting someone on Senior night. They introduced the seniors. The guy I was with was saying that it was a "good name". My reaction was to say sure, it's a great hockey family. As I said, true story.

How about asking Jason Blake if his last year at UND was a good career move? That's for a guy that was skating in college with grey hair. Of course when they offer you enough money you have to take it.

Good luck, you've got to take the money when it's offered. What I do wonder is the business aspect of signing these guys so early. IMO Travis Zajac won't be a NHL'r next year. Hey, now that he's signed I hope I'm wrong. If he can't contribute then why pay him while he's developing. I think the perfect example is Zach Parise. New Jersey gave him huge money when they knew that there was not going to be NHL hockey last year. This year he's doing...OK, but I don't think that NJ would be any worse off if he would have played college hockey last year. They could have left his signing bonus in the bank and had him playing for them this year. He'll continue to develop to be a solid NHL player. Of course when they offered that signing bonus Parise HAD to take it. Another thought. The players don't owe us anything. They put it out on the ice everynight. And....The NHL guys are the professionals. They have their reasons for what they do.

The athletic Department dropped some off to give away for free at Home of Economy in Grand Forks. Go to customer service. I guess it's while supplies last.

Perp-Itch rather than Perp-ick was what was getting me. As far as picking on UND vs BC I expect that's the line they went into the game planning on doing. It's not like they should be expected to understand the college game. Still Barry the Fairy did say some nice things about Ochie (sic).

That's nice com,ma

Great season guys. This game is a bit tough to take in that we basically gave it away a number of times. We're better than these guys, just not today.

empty net 6-4 with 1:25

In 2001 didn't we come back from 2 at the end against these guys? I was out of the country.

During the commercial I backed up the TIVO and it was a terrible penalty call. It was a tap, not a slash.

backbreaker

Jones is going hoss on some guy. Makes sense so Smaby gets the matching penalty.
