  1. I thought the Devils were already solid at D & didn't need anyone else back there. Granted, Gonchar's a star but I was under the assumption N.J. won with mostly gritty role players. Why fix something that ain't broken? Was interesting that NHL-2-nite highlighted a recent comment from Gonchar to the effect, "I'm not getting any younger & I want to be part of a winning team & win the Cup before I retire." (paraphrased)
  2. Hokey dokey, sheriff. Kinda sensitive & territorial about that junior h.s.-level tradition, ain't ya?
  3. I found that kinda surprising, even more than Zach? Maybe Blais was just caught up in the emotions of the moment & temporarily forgot about Zach
  4. Sicatoka: In the short time I've been on this board, I've admired your intellect & grasp of all things UND. However, I think it was a tad low to single out one of the most ardent supporters of Sioux hockey & make an example of him. I've always thought of Goon as a passionate Sioux fan who's not afraid to express himself in his own unique way, regardless of what others think. I say good for him. I think it's supercilious that one adult would find the need to criticize another over the language he decides to use; & if saying "jerk" somehow makes him less of a true/good fan then I need to get out more because I'm behind the times. I grew up watching Sioux hockey in the 70's & the words I heard as a small boy at the old REA would make any sailor shudder. I wasn't negatively effected & my dad was smart enough to realize that raising me in an insult-free, vulgarless bubble until my 18th birthday was unrealistic. There was never talk of this need to domesticate fans back then but now there is. Gee, & I wonder why Sioux fans feel so stifled, restricted. Sit, Spot. Roll over, Spot. Fetch, Spot. Ironic how defensive we get when liberal do-gooders say our Sioux name is offensive to a particular people but in the next breath we will tell others that they can't express themselves in their own unique way because it offends their common decency. The philosophical arguments used by both SCSU professors & certain Sioux fans who want more civilized games mirror each other to an extent. Who's right here & is one group morally superior to the other? Found this Internet definition of the following term which I think applies in this situation. 1. political correctness, political correctitude -- (avoidance of expressions or actions that can be perceived to exclude or marginalize or insult people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against)
  5. Agreed, in a short while Kupchella's social engineering program of turning every Sioux fan into a Stepford wife will be a reality
  6. Whatever Blais does, I hope he doesn't change these line combos. Granted, Mankato is awful but no need to disrupt what we've got here.
  7. Lundbohm makes it 10-1. TH going out on a limb to say this one is over
  8. Good time for Fabian to do so well with all those scouts in attendance. This 3rd period sounds like a perpetual 5x3 for the Sioux.
  9. YES!! Fabian from Stafford for the hatty!!
  10. Parise, yes!! 100th point of his career. Congrats.
  11. Yes, Murray with an assist from Parise. 7-1 Sioux
  12. YES!! Genoway with the goal--9th of the year.
  13. If he's lucky, he'll get to rub elbows with media elites like you.
  14. Man, TH's Vaaler Insurance updates are almost :45 minutes behind.
  15. TH says BOTH Stafford & Porter get the assists on Lundbohm's goal.
  16. It seems like this period has lasted an hour.
  17. My goodness, Fabian robbed of his hatty.
  18. Brandt shining tonight.
  19. Lundy, YES!!...from Stafford. 5-1.
  20. My goodness, the Sioux get a pp
  21. Jeezus, Clark standing on his head--robs Parise on the Parise-Porter 2-on-1.
  22. Dam#!! Lundy stoned on the breakaway!!
  23. Becker with a 10-minute misconduct...maybe too cocky after his goal. Fabian almost gets the hatty. Greene with a penalty.
  24. I hear ya, DamStrait. Hopefully Blais leaves these lines together--they appear to be really clicking.
