When really it wasn't just BE that gave up 6... it was the entire blue line. We gave them too many odd man rushes.

BU didn't have that much hype preseason though. A little, but not like DU has right now. They got a lot of hype once the season got going... so it's a little bit different case. Remember, BC was the preseason number 1 team in the country?

How EXACTLY can one be a Sioux fan and a Gopher fan? Seriously. The Sioux and the Gophers hate each other, their fans hate each other -- it's just not possible (for a normal, sane, hockey fan anyways)... that's the way it's always been. Are you a Vikings and a Packers fan too? Yankees and Red Sox? Sounds like a bandwagon thing to me....

Where's the keg? Because all this "discussion" is driving me to drink... or at least thinking about it.

All this hype for Denver could come crashing down all around them for all they know. (I'm expecting it) It could be a kiss of death like it was for CC. I'm waiting for a potential EPIC FAIL.

EVERYONE on a team plays a KEY ROLE. that's why they call it a TEAM. get over it!

Just wanted to say CONGRATS to Ryan Duncan, Brad Miller, Ryan Martens, Zach Jones, and Aaron Walski who graduated with me today! Great work finishing your degrees and best of luck wherever you end up in life!

If they want to go ahead and think a couple a Ivys are on par with the likes of the WCHA/CCHA/Hockey East.... they can go right ahead. I know the truth. I'm still baffled by Minnesota. I can't get over it. I feel they should be listed under the "Could be good if Jordan Schroeder returns, Kangas stops sucking, and the rest of their players figure out how to contribute to an offense and play hockey." category, not a Top 10 list. I think there's a love affair with Minnesota. Thats a lot of IF's if you ask me. There are teams with less question marks that at this point, could be more legit than Minnesota. Someone brought up Wisconsin. Anyways, I'm over it. Carry on!

Of course you do

Just saying... don't assume. I hate that. NOW we can all talk about the wing/hawks matchup.

I'm sorry... I wasn't aware Detroit had already won...

He didn't WOW me like a one-and-done player should. Though, I will not be disappointed if he doesn't come back.

But only one of them is a legit Hobey candidate.

I've kind of talked to him about this, and I get the impression from Dunc that he just wants to keep playing hockey as long as he can. I don't think it really matters to him where he plays. Everyone wants to play in the NHL, and Ryan is no different, but I'm sure he's okay with just being able to keep playing. The love of the game...

and yet they still won. i'm no longer surprised by anything you say.

it wasn't legal, or clean. however, i don't think it was intentional either, it was just one of those things where gonchar shifted his body at the last second which made the knees collide. but intentional or not, it happened. And, I'm not an Ovechkin fan, so i'm not trying to justify/make it okay/whatever.

I don't really think it's our place to say who should get what award because we are on the outside and we don't see the progress made by certain players day in and day out like those on the inside do. I do respect everyone's opinions but I, personally, don't think it's my place to say. I mean, last year Brent Davidson was voted most improved and he didn't play in very many games last year so we didn't get to see that really, until perhaps, this season. I agree though that Zajac and Miller both made significant strides this year and deserve a lot of credit for their improved play, but I don't want to take anything away from the improvement of Ben Blood either. I think a lot of players made great strides this year so I'm sure it's hard to pick one...

There's an interview with Derrick LaPoint on his recovery here if anyone hasn't seen it yet: http://www.fightingsioux.com/ViewArticle.d...;ATCLID=3734652 Good to see him out walking around campus.

gosh, i hope so! i'm so sick of detroit.

we'll need the extra time to develop the freshies

Thanks Big! I needed a laugh after a stressful morning! That's as funny as Cade Fairchild as a Hobey finalist.

this is dumb--in the olympics you support your country. everything else is pushed aside. enough said.

you mean there is a majority? I was beginning to think I was the only one! haha

I don't think Denver's anything to drool over either. Decent, but that's it. I just enjoy other teams struggling with early departures. ( I'm not a very nice person, I admit it )

BOO. oh well, I'm over it. GO SIOUX!
