Toews was number one star in Blackhawks win over the Devils tonight. In on-ice postgame interview he ended it with "I wanna give a shout out to my boys from THE University of North Dakota who are here tonight!

apparently when he wasn't fighting, he was a hell of a dancer! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaYLdFE7s9Y

Looks like Coach Hakstol could handle himself pretty well. He was the Captain on that team and for the season had 150 pims in 79 games so not really goon status. Darcy loewen cheapshotted the goalie and Hak did what any teammate and captain would do and took exception. The 2nd tussle he had to step in for a "soft" teammate in Snuggerud(who played a different role and by no means should have tried to get dragged into it with Bezeau who was the stereotypical "goon" and who's greatest accomplishment was once amassing 590 penalty minutes in 74 games one season.

Was at the game. Zajac was named number 2 star of the game, Parise was the number 3 star of the game and Nittimakkii earned the number one star for the Lightning, as if not for him this would have been a 6 or 7 to 1 game and not decided in a shootout.

I remember Garage Logic had a caller call in and tell Joe about how his kid came home from little league and told him that they didn't keep score so everyone won! The father then informed his kid, correctly, that in fact they all lost that day.

Currently his +/- is 0

Going to see some former Sioux players the next couple of days. Wednedsay night I will be able to watch Finley and Jones play for the South Carolina Stingrays against the Florida Everblades and then on Saturday I will be watching Parise and Zajac withthe Devils against the Lightning with Hale and Smaby assuming they both dress. On another note Bochenski leads TB's AHL team in scoring with 6 goals and 2 assists in 8 games.

Looks like I'll get to see Finley and Zach Jones play against the Everblades on the 28th. Anyone know what Smaby's status with the Lightning is this year? I see he hasn't played a game yet. I assume he is injured? I'll also get to see Zajac and Parise against (hopefully) David Hale and Smaby on the 31st.

what is the deal with the feed? Trying to remember why I pay for that?

Also DU changed the year they wanted him to come to school and pushed it back a year. I think the main reason he chose DU over UND in the first place was to play a year earlier....when that changed so did his decision.

Correct. Pomeroy should not only have voted against this farce, he should have done everything within his power to stop it...and the same goes for Dorgan and Conrad who are supposed to be powerful members of the Senate. A vote in favor of this travesty on America would not only be a good reason to vote them out in the next election but in my opinion would be a good enough reason to actually recall them from DC.

Except I couldn't tell you what name marquestte is going by right now. When I think Marquestte I still think Warriors and it's been over 10 years.

I will always support UND athletics, but I will never buy any merchandise that has a logo or name other than the Sioux on it. I would buy items that say UND on them or University of North Dakota but can promise you I will never buy anything with a name or logo different than The Fighting Sioux. And I am pretty sure I am not alone in this. I don't think you will stop hearing "lets go Sioux" in our sports arenas for a long, long time.

We tried that. We let the People on the reservations vote and they came up with The Fighting Sioux.

I won't. I will buy stuff with UND on it, but will never buy anything with a different name and/or logo on it.

Back on topic. Congrats to the NDSU fastpitch squad and to my former softball teammate and current head coach Darren Mueller!

Spehar?

Has it been announced who else is playing in the Notre Dame Holiday tournament?

Hrkac with a goal and an assist so far tonight as Houston leads Chris Porter's Peoria squad 2-1 in the 2nd.

Correct! If 40 years of whining hasn't been enough to change people's minds, whats another couple months going to do?

After the Isles were eliminated, they brought down a couple of their younger players like Okposo.

Sorry. Sarcasm intended! I was giving my gopher buddies crap about this saying he must be from Minnesota since they don't recruit outside their state.

I think you are confused Goon. The kid is from Finlander, MN, it is a small town up by Eveleth.

Kozek has his first professional goal tonight for the Chicago Wolves in the AHL.
