Yea, I did. The reason I posted the baby blue uniforms is because there was great discussion about the dark color, which is actually black, not navy blue. That's NOT a North Carolina color, just like anthracite isn't an Arkansas color and volt isn't an Oregon color. Hell, I'm not even on board with Montana and their 'spirit colors.' Just stick with the university color scheme already! What's next, Bison football coming out with a black jersey? That's original.

Go to the World Junior site and you will see all kinds of levels of play. I was surprised to find out that Mexico has a World Junior tournament team.

From "the harder I work, the luckier I get" to "the more I donate, the more I expect as a return on my investment"?

Well, we're D1 now and it is 2014...you can't expect recruits to choose a school based on anything other than flashy uniforms and multiple headgear options I guess.

Yep! Nothing says North Carolina like adding black to the color scheme.

Brutal Group A next year: Finland Canada USA Slovakia Germany Group B: Sweden Russia Czech Republic Switzerland Denmark* *replaces Norway from this year's field. Norway lost the best-of-three with Germany so the German team stays in the field. C'mon Norway!

Incredible game...Finland deserved the gold medal. Well done.

I know! A parade of Finns to the penalty box until Sweden finally ties it up...

Finland and Sweden both showing why they are in the gold medal game.

Black is sooooo '90's...what UND really needs is anthracite jerseys and helmets...

Nope.

Wouldn't that be the second sign of the apocalypse as foretold in the book of Revelation?

You are correct. I edited my post.

I think in theory that that's how it works.

Nyet nyet Soviet! How about 'Canada, eh? No way!'

Apparently they require more blood for it to be 'fighting.'

A nice steaming pile of Nike crap...Houston and Oregon State. Yuck.

Uh oh. Canada has life at the 12:50 mark of the period.

http://www.worldjunior2014.com/en/news/pettersonreview/ Pettersson was definitely the instigator.

Saw that! Should have been 4:00. Petterson suspended for leaving the penalty box but NOT for smashing Mironov's nose with TWO direct punches? HUH??

And I think of NDSU beating the team that just knocked off #7 Duke. Edited at 10:39 am 1-5-14

2-0 end of 2. Canadian players to seek political asylum in North Korea rather than fly home if this holds up.

Team Canada melting down...total lack of discipline on a cross check into the boards followed by a stick to the face.
