That's quite the conspiracy theory you have there. What are your thoughts on the JFK assassination? UMN holds onto their top pick talent? Like Kessel? Vanek? EJohnson and possibly Okposo after this year? All of those first rounders are lucky if they stay for 3 years. We got 3 out of Stafford, and no one expected him to come back for his sr season.

When aren't they with their recent play?

Sweeping the Sioux?

Is it just me, or is it impossible for some of our dmen to shoot the puck and not have it go right into an opponent?

Yes it is. Hopefully he can keep it up.

That's hard to do sometimes though. If you are skating around the zone with a guy bearing down on you, you don't want to have to look up at the scoreboard just to see how much time is left. Maybe they should install little clocks right behind the nets.

Because the players don't have an internal clock that tells them how much time is remaining.

That'd be my guess.

Has Radke ever played forward before?

Grieco gets the start.

If Blais doesn't want to coach the women's team, then he could always be brought in as an assistant coach under Hakstol.

To take Bishop's scholarship, I say we get Nash or Gregoire on board for next year.

That's just fantastic. Hope it's not bad, and that he doesn't miss the tourney, or any more games at UND.

Sorry Eric. So, with Bishop leaving the fold, does that mean that there is now another scholarship open for an 07 recruit? Maybe Nash?

That sucks to lose Hunter. I bet that you are correct that he transfers to either UAA or UAF.

As do I. Good luck in the BCHL this season, Hunter. Come back next year!

After talking with many of the players on the UND women's team a few years ago, I have no doubt that this will make the team better immediately. It was also help in the recruiting of new players and holding onto them once they get here. Good move.

Great post. I agree entirely.

What are your guys' thoughts on this series? UMN handled them pretty well. Does that mean that we will split with them? Worse? Win 2 tight games? Who knows. Toews will be gone as well.

I wish I was making this trip. It would be fun to find that Dartmouth AD and yell "Go Sioux" right in her face.

So, we lose Murray to the Badgers in the same week that we get swept at home by them. Does that mean that David Toews is going to sign with Tech this week?

I can't wait to see LaPoint in a Sioux uniform next season. The kid sounds like a stud player. Maybe he is the next Roche that we have all been waiting for.

His mom doesn't normally require him to be sober to do the house chores.

These Fire Hakstol threads are so cool. /end sarcasm

Yes, because that is definitely a true indication of their respective talent levels.
