The Whistler

Wow, that's almost 40% of them. Panzer got robbed.

You guys should probably get your own forum section so you can talk about the Rutgers issues. But we want you to keep posting the UND stuff on this forum section.

Lerg played in the CCHA.

You'll shoot your eye out.

The VV, Trupp, Zajac line is going to wind up the #2 line in offensive punch.

I think that's probably what's going to happen. Kozek does create a lot of problems with his speed. Radke's one of those guys that go all out, sometimes too far out. But he adds a lot of grit.

I thought that Malone looked real good. He's going to be tough to play against. I had forgotten that Brian Lee had left until midway in the first period. (Not really) Frattin looked pretty good, but the OFD line wasn't as dynamic as it needs to be. I'm sure it will come. Trupp looked tentative as all get out in the first period, but he really came on. Of course that's just my opinion. I think we're going to have a great year.

I still think we would have beat them last year if only we had got past BC. Not that I'm WHINING or anything!

I see TJ is listed at 192. Wasn't he listed for 170 or so last year. Wow that's a lot of muscle. That certainly makes his pro prospects stronger. He always played like a big man, but now he is.

Would they have counted that second goal as a save if it hadn't gone in? Two goals on one shot? On the other side it was classless to mock our goalie after making a save. As someone already correctly pointed out his play in practice is a better indication of whether he's going to start this weekend. Jean-Phillipe has the skills but he's had a problem with recovering from a goal he thinks he should have gotten. I hope that he can use this to as a way to overcome that. The booing episode I think was against Tech last year. There was a terrible play where a number of players missed the play as the Techie brought the puck end to end and scored. It was not the goalies fault but he was pulled anyhow. That's why in my opinion why the boobirds were out. (I didn't boo but I felt like it for that reason). I really felt bad for the goalie. I thought he should have been restored at the start of the third to let him know it wasn't his fault. But Hak saw differently and I'm not saying he was wrong.

Which rhymes with.....

At Last.

Today starts to the drive to Championship #8.

Polls only reflect reality when the Sioux are ranked #1.

THAT WAS NOT AN ELBOWING PENALTY!

It's gotta be tough to recruit against UND, UMtc, and Wisconsin with great histories and better facilities. Then when you do get some very good players they've left.

Where is Duncan going to score that goal from?

I heard Gwozdickie's recruiting him.

So they don't get to go home after a game? Man those NHL teams are strict.

That's what I think. I never thought much about the the idea that when it comes to suspensions that a playoff game was worth 2 regular seasons game. But something like that does seem appropriate.

Well, he maybe played just as well or better as a freshman as he did a sophomore. (Although it's my opinion he was tired at the end of his Freshman season) Read that how you want to. Has anyone gone back and looked at these predictions at the end of the year? There's a lot of things going on in a national championship team. It's my opinion that our last championship had quite a bit lesser talent than the teams the two previous years.

I like #2 on their cocktail napkin of what if INCH had never existed: This one was pretty good too: And this one:

So what does that mean when he wasn't expected to start in the NHL? I suppose he'll have to sit out 20 AHL games but it's the big league games that matter.

You mean intentionally injuring someone and then trying not to be held accountable for it? You're right!

Yeah right, your computer bombed right before hunting season so you'll be out hunting rather than keeping us informed. Slacker.
