Wow, 3-0

2-0 Grimaldi with an assist

1-0 USA 8 min in. Watching on the NHL channel, video looks like it is being played at a faster speed than normal. Maybe they are all just that fast!

1st round - Kristo 2nd round - Rowney (inj) pretend pick (if I were allowed to do an injury swap) Knight 3rd round - still playing along as I felt cheated - Rocco 4th round - MacMillan Yes I know they don't count.

That sucks that we don't find out til noon the day of a game that a player isn't playing due to injury. Not like it was due to suspension or a bubble player that may be in or out of the game. If allowed to change due to injury, I am changing my pick to: Knight. If not well I'm going to pretend play along

I can't believe there hasn't been a UND vs Manitoba Game thread started yet!! Two days til we hit the ice, can't wait.

I know I have read about a study that showed full mask helmets are more prone to concussions than those with partial shields. I will admit a partial shield won't protect the face as well from a stick or puck. I stil think it should be up to the players, assuming they are 18 or older. Wish I could find the link to that study.

It could be interesting to see Greene the man who stuck up for/protected Parise in college, try to smash him into the boards.

I think most people are missing the point here. CBH and AAA are not competing for the majority of the same players. Yes, there will be some local high school talent that would possibly go the midget route, but it isn't going to completely remove local teams. AAA isn't going to be for everybody, either due to money, personal interests, or whatever. Academics are a whole different thing with AAA programs. Some offer tutors/teachers and online courses as an option. Others like Shattucks is a school in itself. What the hockey academy's plans are I don't know, but I'm sure it is something they have taken into consideration. I do feel this would be a good recruiting tool for UND as well. I'm not just talking about the kids that would come to play for this team, but also the other kids that come into REA for games. Not only do they get to see REA and what it has to offer, it gives the coaches a chance to scout while spending some nights at home and not traveling everywhere.

Can the brackets be posted yet, so we can look at others. Now that the tourney has started!

Don't forget the most important of all Fratelli's - Chelsea Dagger (Sioux Goals)

They have worn the black jerseys several times this year with some not so good outcomes. So much so that even when I wore my black jersey we lost. I'm only going with green from here on out. Go Sioux!!!

sent you an e-mail.

After losing to UAH, I have a feeling Blais will have them ready to play. Hoping our boys will keep up the scoring.
