The Whistler

Yeah, my blogging efforts apparently are causing worldwide anguish within the female members of my household (excluding at least one daughter) as well.

How's the college hockey talk down in Arizona?

Didn't Goldy used to wear figure skates?

I think what's he's saying is that Lucia is somewhat more popular in Minnesota than Brad Childress. Hey name a professional or major college coach in Minneapolis that's less likely to get fired than the Don.

Pick on Hill for getting his butt ran out of Alaska?

I thought there was another one in there. Of course the gophs don't get all that many chances in the NCAA's anyway.

Whatever makes you happy. Just keep it to yourself please.

UMtc knocked out of the playoffs by the Sioux in (list the past few years).

Good thing we copyrighted the "ran into an hot goalie meme."

I'm sure it's serious when he already knows he won't be able to travel. All kidding aside, I hope he gets well soon.

Only his hairdresser knows for sure.

I don't recall that. They started with Steve Johnson (who stayed with them on the #1 power play along with Kidd and Krompatich sp?) and finished with Freshman Brent Bobyck.

Bob Joyce, the captain was #20.

Yes he was (Itech clear face shield). I think Hrkac wore it in the 86-87 year, but he was playing with the Canadian national team the year before that.

All American that year along with Hrkac and Joyce. Belfour was second team I believe.

I remember a big game against the gophers on TV where the announcers were saying there was a hitting contest between Kidd and most of the gophers team. He didn't back down one bit. He dished out more than he received. How about the massive comeback in Duluth sparked by Mr. Kidd. He was #4 was he not? Parks was 11.

Sshhhhh!

That looks like a GOOD line.

What?

Let's pound those Beavers!

I'm sure I could come up with a lot of smart alec stuff to say, but I'd feel bad if this were real serious. I'll wait until he's back....

Goon was!

He can flat out play.

But he didn't make it to the Frozen Four everytime either.

Rock bottom a few years ago was when we got swept by the St Clownies at home in late January or February. I left the building thinking the season was over. We may not have hit rock bottom yet and still might make the tourney.
