Wasn't their some tension between Engelstad and Wanless as well. I seem to remember Mr. Engelstad voicing his displeasure with Wanless.

I think you are right. I believe his name is Chris, and he was on the World Juniors team when it was held at the Ralph.

The disclaimer to this play is that Big Joe did this after the whistle, rather than laying the smack down during live action. It was TJ that delivered the big hit that sent the Maine player over the boards and into our bench......a hit that we need to see Big Joe attempting to make.

Where can the rest of us get some of the crack you're smoking?

This would be a nice hire for Montana St. Lennon runs a very good program. I'd favor Bubba for the job is Lennon does indeed leave. Tibesar is up and coming, but I think Bubba is proven.

If you go through F-M to hit the lakes, always stop at Casey's in Dilworth or Mhd...they are the cheapest.....and take one of their pizzas to go.

Holy smokes....that's a big one. My biggest is 7 1/2 lbs out of LOW....where did you get this one? Great catch!!

Wasn't Bochenski going to ineligible because of academics? Which would make his decision that much easier.....

There was nothing selfish about Johnny's decision to leave. He's ready!! As for Duncs...he's a sniper. The kid doesn't miss his spots. Did he benefit from Johnny and TJ, sure he did. However, he didn't miss when given the opportunity. I think Vande steps in and holds his own on that line. He obviously won't do the things Johnny did, but I think Vandy is going to be a great player for the Sioux.

First of all, you forgot to post a work cited page because all of your information was copied and pasted from Wikpedia (Do you have a thought of your own). Second of all, if you're going to find someone to compare, you need to come up with someone better than J Edgar Hoover....We all know how bad the Warren Commission messed up.

Did anyone mention 'W' in this email? A little defensive aren't you?

I'm pretty sure Hak has Marto on a specific weight plan and the kid works out at REA during the summer. While he will improve physically when he arrives at UND, he's not going to going to turn into a freak of nature. As for Marto being better than Lee?? Holding a 20 year old in the USHL must be a secret disguise

Does anyone know how many winners of the Mr. Hockey award in North Dakota have gone on to skate in the NHL?

I don't know that "hyped" would be the word, but he may mean "expectations." Based on previous performance, certain players entering UND's program are expected to produce right now and two years is not an option.

Throw in Herchel Walker and I'd bet they'd take it! Just Win, Baby!

The Raiders would maybe give their 7th round pick for the Vikes receivers...

Vikes covet Gaines Adams, who appears to be slipping on the board. Landry would be a good pick for them. I don't think Quinn will amount to much in the NFL, and I also think Lynch is a better back than Peterson. If running back is the direction they choose, trade down and take Lynch. The Pack have offered the Chiefs their 1st and 4th round picks for Larry Johnson, and it sounds like they are very close to sealing the deal on the Moss trade. If the Pack were to get those two, look out....

My guess is that as his coach, Murray, is more in the know than we are. At any rate, I wish him nothing but the best...It's too bad he wasn't property of the Wild (aka team Europe).

The bleacher creature...man, was that pathetic!!

Let's not kid ourselves here...they didn't wake up one day and decide to do the right thing...It's all about bargaining with the attorney so they had something reduced in the form of punishment. However, if this is the worst thing these guys do in life, I think they'll be ok....They're 18-20 year old kids having fun. If you look at the big picture, a Moorhead State basketball player was just in court for murder and U of M football players are facing charges of rape.....having a party with the noise too loud is pretty minor.

I agree that he'll be AHL his first year out. In fact, anybody that would leave other than TJ and Johnny would be AHL bound.

Yes, I am serious......

We had a number of guys who struggled at times this season.....Lee was very close to signing with Ottawa after last season.

Way to go, Dunc!! How Panzer never won it is still mind boggling....

The hard hat that gets awarded to players should be named "The Chris Porter Award." In addition to his grit and strong work ethic, Porter encompassed everything the Fighting Sioux Hockey team would want in a captain. As a season ticket holder, those in my section discuss what we think will happen before each game and it almost became a contest to see who could beat the others to say "Porter will work his a$$ off tonight." Scott Foyt reflected the pride that comes along with being a Fighting Sioux Hockey player. Despite not getting much playing time, he showed up at the rink every day doing what was asked of him. Even though game time was not there, he never hung it up and walked away from our program, which is a true reflection of his character. Fabian's work ethic and team first attitude will be missed on the ice and in the locker room. We have some talented and skilled players that score beautiful goals, but if the puck was in the corners, Fabian was the one always in the middle of things doing the dirty work. Thank you, Seniors.
