You should ask Minnesota how "EZ" Union was in the 2014 title game. Dave

2000s: Forwards T.J. Oshie, Zach Parise, and Jonathan Toews Defensemen Taylor Chorney and Chay Genoway Goaltender Jean-Phillippe Lamoureux (Honorable mention to F Ryan Duncan, D Travis Roche, and G Jordan Parise) Discuss. Dave

Do you mean EE-kack? I certainly hope not. Dave

Here's another way to look at it (or maybe best saved for another thread). My dream bubble hockey game would have custom painted 1980s UND players vs. 1990s UND players since I started watching the team in 1979-80 and began attending UND in 1992. Given those parameters, here are my teams: 1980s: Forwards Tony Hrkac, Troy Murray, and Phil Sykes Defensemen Ian Kidd and James Patrick Goaltender Ed Belfour (Honorable mention to F Bob Joyce, D Russ Parent, and G Jon Casey, plus my all-time favorite 80s player Jim Archibald) 1990s: Forwards Dave Hoogsteen, Greg Johnson, and Jeff Panzer Defensemen Curtis Murphy and Brad Williamson Goaltender Karl Goehring (Honorable mention to F Jason Blake, D Nick Naumenko, and G Aaron Schweitzer, plus fan favorite Mike Commodore) Discuss.

I would be surprised if Monty goes with Dayton Rasmussen (fr., Eden Prairie, MN) tonight, but stranger things have happened. Here are Rasmussen's stats from his two collegiate starts: October 21, 2017 vs. Lake Superior State: 1 goal allowed on 16 shots (win) November 3, 2017 at Western Michigan: 6 goals allowed on 37 shots (loss) That gives him an NCAA line of: 1-1-0, 3.54 goals-against average, .868 save percentage Rasmussen just turned 19 and was traded mid-year in both of his USHL seasons (from Waterloo to Tri-City in 2015-16 and from Tri-City to Chicago in 2016-17). In the second game of a rivalry weekend (and given the way last night ended up), I think it's Jalliet's net. Dave

Malone was assessed a major penalty for charging and a game misconduct for the hit. There was contact to the head and thus Malone also sat for UND's next game (11/5/10 vs. Duluth). I was sitting in the second row on the blue line (penalty box side) at the X when Paukovitch checked Bina into the near boards after Bina's touch drew a whistle on a delayed penalty. The hit by Paukovitch was worse, but they were both illegal. Dave

Best guess. Gersich/Gardner/Poganski Adams/Jones/Mismash Yon (or Kawaguchi on one of the nights)/Hoff/Janatuinen Smith/Bowen/Olson Wolanin/Poolman Shaw/Bast Kiersted/Peski Johnson Thome With UND's forward depth, I don't expect to see Simonson until he's completely healed. Dave

From my weekend preview: Minnesota can no longer lay claim to having a roster made up exclusively of the State of Hockey’s “Pride On Ice”, with players hailing from Anchorage (Alaska), Commerce Township and Grand Rapids (Michigan), Mississauga (Ontario), Newport Beach (California), River Falls (Wisconsin), and Stockholm (Sweden).
