anybody have any good pics from the inside of the old ralph?

NDpride-any chance you can give us an update on the FM Jets preseason and their north dakota players (mihulka,harrie,larson,klenow,halstenson,oakland) and i probably forgot a couple too. but thanks in advance.

Thats true, but when have we seen a player from ND go straight from highschool to DI college. Potulny and Irmen were true freshman, but they had 2 years of experience in the USHL.

Hi everyone, long-time reader, first-time poster. I have a question for everyone: What does highschool hockey in North Dakota need to do to better develop players for the next level? I mean lets take Marto from GFC for an example. Personally I think this kid is one of the best players to come out of ND in the last 10 years. He earned a scholarship to UND, but my point is it is going to take him 2 years to develop in the USHL. He wont be on campus until after his 21st b-day. In Minnesota, you see highschool seniors taking that step straight from highschool to college. What is it that they are doing better? Im not knocking North Dakota, I just want to hear some opinions. NDPride-i think you will have a good opinion for me, you are much more knowledegable about the game and ND hockey. thanks
