Middle to late 1st rounder is not too shabby. Parise was No. 19, and I would take him even if only for a year or two.

It is Clarkson.

The NAHL is considered a stronger league than the MJHL, and Dickins and Davidson came from that league. Although the Sioux have not recruited from the NAHL, it is a good league and has turned out many D1 players. Just this last year, Denver had Dustin Jackson and Luke Salazar, UMD had Kyle Schmidt, Air Force had Jacques Lamoureux, CC had Gabe Guentzel, Notre Dame had Ryan Guentzel, BU had Chris Connelly (Jack's brother), Minnesota had Jacob Cepis, etc. When Denver won its last NCAA championship, they had 6 kids from the NAHL. The CCHL, Bemidji State, MSUM and UMD have historically had quite a few kids from the NAHL, so don't sell the league short.

I have 2 tickets for the Saturday night game against Denver. They are great seats, in section 105, Row K, which are about 10 rows up and where the Sioux shoot twice. $100 for the pair. PM me or call me at (701) 371-0195. Prefer to sell them to someone in the FM area because I live in Fargo. Tickets have been sold

TICKETS AVAILABLE FOR FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAME

I have 2 lower bowl tickets available for Friday's nights game against Ohio State. I will sell for $25 apiece, which is less than what they will sell for at the door or through Ticket Master. Call me at (701) 371-0195. They are great seats, located in Section 105 where the Sioux shoot twice!!! -

Where are you at? I have 2 tickets in section 105, about 10 rows up where the Sioux shoot twice. Either PM me or call me at (701) 371-0195. I am in Fargo, and we are leaving about noon on Friday for Minneapolis.

I do expect a sweep by the Sioux, but even if MSUM is greatly improved and we are down a little, I still believe a worst case scenario is a split. I would not be satisfied, but at least I would have some expectation that this team will be fine and have a chance at finishing in the top half of the WCHA. Two points on the road in the WCHA is not necessarily bad, but like many Sioux fans who have posted here, I am concerned about this team even though it is early. Anyone who saw this weekend's games would have some of the same concerns. This weekend will tell a lot about this team. If the Sioux do get swept, I don't want to hear the excuses about how much improved MSUM is or that it is a tough place to play. The good teams do not get swept by MSUM, home or away.

I agree that Zacharias is good, but the Sioux did beat him twice last year at MSUM. The 2nd game, they put up 5 on him and he was pulled in the 3rd period. I realize that MSUM is improved, but it appears that they getting a lot of respect for a team with 1 or 2 NCAA appearances and very few finishes in the top 1/2 of the league. They may prove to be very good this year, but I'm not ready to say that they are a legitimate contender like Denver, CC and Minnesota. If the Sioux do not get at least a split, then I have very real concerns about whether this Sioux team is very good and with the team's recruiting. If the Sioux are truly getting the blue chip prospects like Minnesota, Michigan, Denver, etc., we should be able to beat teams like MSUM. MSUM does not win many recruiting battles with the traditional powers. I frankly expect the Sioux to sweep MSUM every time and anything less than 2 points is a major disappointment and a cause for concern.

Mario is the youngest of the boys and is the freshman at UND that I was referring to. If that is who were referring to, you are right. PJ is 1 year older, but cannot play college because he played Major Juniors in Red Deer. Jacque was the one at Northern Michigan and then transferred to Air Force. The girls are the youngest, and they are at UMTC. They might be the toughest of all.

I agree. No one really knows who will play. It depends on their performance. However, I suspect that Davidson will have a tough time cracking the line up. Hextall was one of the top 10 players in Canadian Junior hockey last year, and he was a very good player in a league (BCHL) that is far superior to the league that Davidson played in (MJHL). The MJHL is a notch below the NAHL, and NAHL kids don't usually get a lot of playing time at UND. Hextall and Malone were recruited kids on scholarship, and Davidson is a recruited walk-on. Lamoureux is a skilled kid who may surprise you. Don't let his numbers fool you--he played for a very defensive-minded coach in the USHL, but he's tough and he can score. I suspect that he will play before Davidson as well, but he will have a tough time beating out Hextall and Malone. I am told that Hextall is a Prpich type player with more scoring touch. If that's the case, he will play and will soon be a fan favorite. Martens will clearly play before Davidson. He plays with a lot of heart, is an upperclassman, and is one of the most improved players. Miller is the wild card. He's very skilled offensively, but he needs some work defensively and in physical play. I suspect that he will be given every opportunity to play because of his offensive abilities and because he's an upperclassman.

Size is fine, but I hope that they can skate. I recall many people on this board complaining about Finley because the BC forwards skated past him like a pylon. Finley is actually a good skater, but not quick. The name of the game is quickness, skating and puck movement. BC ring a bell? How about the Red Wings? I'll bet the Penguins would trade their big but immobile defensemen for the Wings' smaller and much more skilled defenseman. Lidstrom, Kronwall and Rafalski are dwarfs compared to Hal Gill. But, they can skate and use their sticks for something other than to crosscheck and obstruct.
