If you're on 56k, you're gonna have a bad time...

Greener put himself and UND on the front page of ESPN's NHL page.

I don't care much for that script look on the jerseys, but I think it looks sharp on the helmets!

Is it hockey season yet?

That lady was an idiot that bought that. Not for buying the jersey, but just by her actions and manners that night.

Thanks for the message! I sent you an email. Our deadline is looming and we are unfortunately still looking for a couple Nike sweaters. Please let me know what you'd be willing to part with. You can also contact Jason with the Sioux Shop for more details if you'd prefer. Either way, we REALLY need a couple more Nike jerseys. Please let us know!

If we're talking just C's, I'd say Smaby in '05-06 for sure. Can't find any fault in any others.

Things have gone quiet on our end. This is an honest attempt at helping with a great looking display at The Ralph...these are not for me. Here's what we will pay you for a jersey in the sizes we need: WHITE: $400 GREEN: $375 If the jersey is customized right now, that's not too much of a problem, but subract $50. If it's the right jersey but the wrong size, subtract $25. Preferred sizes are 52-56 but are open to anything! Please help as soon as you can. For more details please read the first post.

Thanks again to those who have helped out already, it's been much appreciated!

Still looking for a couple jerseys. Thanks for all those who have emailed me already. We really need your help on this!

Sold outright, sorry Mr. T. Thanks for asking, though.

Also, the renovation is only taking place on the players/coaches level of the arena...a private area. Once complete, an already top-notch facility is only going to get better, making it an even more eye-opening experience for recruits, current players, and the alumni who return.

Nice jersey and pics Jeremy!

Still looking for a few jerseys! Please email me and name your price! We're willing to negotiate for some nice sweaters. Thanks to those who have gotten back to me already.

I take it you can't help.

As you likely have already heard, Ralph Engelstad Arena is being renovated at the players/coaches level. I have been asked to help with a certain area of this project pertaining to acquiring a few jerseys. Since Sioux fans are the greatest out there, we are turning towards you for help. Details on what the jerseys will be used for are under lock and key for now, but I assure you that you will be a part of making UND an even greater eye-opening experience for recruits, current players, and even the legends that still walk the halls of REA as alumni. The best part is you'll be paid to help out! Here are the details: WANTED: ---White Nike Dazzle jersey ---Black Nike Dazzle jersey ---Green Nike Dazzle jersey (x2) ***Sizes 52-56 preferred, but will consider other sizes ***Blank jerseys preferred, but not required ***Obviously we prefer jerseys that look new ***We are not looking for game-worn jerseys nor replica style jerseys The sooner we can have these jerseys in hand, the better. We would like to have them in hand by mid-July. PAYMENT: You will be paid directly by Ralph Engelstad Arena. REA is willing to pay fair market value for these jerseys. If you'd prefer Sioux Shop gift card money we can look at options there, even for increased payment. Since every transaction needs to be on record, we will need to have some sort of invoice paperwork created for our end, which I can help you with. Please contact me with what you are able to part with and we will discuss the value of your jersey. CONTACT: Please contact me ASAP via siouxjersey@gmail.com. If email doesn't work for you, contact me via Private Message here on the forums. PHOTOS: These are the styles we are looking for: Thank you!

This is a great example. It shows that much of the issue deals with perception opposed to fact. Many can believe what they want and there's no way to change their mind until something happens that changes their perception. I still believe in personal choice, but if it were me, I'd lean towards more facial protection opposed to less, just like I'd still wear my seat belt even if there was no law saying I have to. With enough common sense and teaching, people will do the right thing whether or not a rule is in place. Those who don't should only be punished with whatever additional injury takes place because of it.

I agree with you and disagree with you. I agree that masks are probably for the better. Is it weird that the NCAA is seemingly the only league other than youth hockey to mandate full cages? Yes. However, I do think they do more good than not. I honestly don't believe it's out of the realm of possibility that with enough lawsuits against the NHL that they'd ultimately mandate it, which would trickle down to all leagues. And those lawsuits are a matter of when, not if. Where I disagree with you Dave is enforcing rules like this. I agree with Mariucci using the seat belt example. I'd prefer everyone to wear one, but, I don't believe anyone should be forced to wear one. Gretzky may not have liked any sort of facial protection because it limited his vision and hearing, just like some would argue that seat belts are more restricting and can even do more damage in an accident. It's all perception of each individual which is why there's sometimes no right or wrong answer, which is why nothing should be enforced, only encouraged. Just my $.02

If I send one of these in the mail to Hak he will have won a Natty. Then, everyone will be happy that Hak finally got his Natty.

I see both sides of the argument, so I don't really have a say in which direction I'd prefer it to go. Just from what I've seen across the sports landscape in recent years, I'd be that the NHL would mandate full cages/masks before college dropped them. There are too many lawsuits involving head injuries these days, and it's only a matter of time before the NHL really gets hit hard like the NFL is going through. There already have been lawsuits in the works involving old head injuries from retired NHL players and I only see it getting worse going forward. As a CYA measure, I can see the NHL implementing them, whether or not it's right or wrong.

The AHL is a great league. I used to catch quite a few Milwaukee Admirals games. The pace of the game is similar to the college level, only with more skilled guys. Plus, there are usually tons of former college kids playing which is a bonus.

The fact that Rocco hasn't said anything says to me he's leaning on leaving. Three teammates all basically say on the same day they are staying, and Rocco wasn't included. Seems strange.
