I don't think its meaningless. Last season it seemed like Blake and Gaber rarely celebrated with each other, like there was a lack of comradery between them.

As Barsness pointed out, there were a few timely saves that we didn't get last year.

Mr. Perron will continue his preseason heat!

I guess not - missed it by one. It does indeed. Falls in the category of blind squirrels and nuts.

A couple of comments. We've done well recruiting in Manitoba so playing them is probably good exposure. And with this forward group there's less need for the D to pinch in as much as they seemed to do last year.

I see Mr. Perron starting the season with a highlight reel goal - or two.

That would be a killer third line.

I don't remember. You can get nachos for $24.

I went to a Kraken playoff game last spring and paid $17 for a beer.

Might as well hand them the national championship trophy as soon as the season starts, kinda like minnie last year - oops.

Does the article say where he may be headed? I don't want to subscribe to read the article. Never mind - I just saw he's headed to BU.

Thanks for the reminder - I never would have remembered.

I hate to be the wet blanket on the optimism, but I just don't see Persson with more than 20 shutouts. Just calling it as I see it.

Nice......

My high school team played against Warroad when he was on the team. He was already a special player. Just blew by everyone on the ice.

Today's sign of the apocalypse.

FYP

Well thank God they changed from that horribly racist and offensive nickname Dutchmen. Let's go garnet chargers!

Right you both are. My memory sucks.

Ah yes, the Wehrs corner hit. Always a big favorite. Could never understand why they called a penalty.

So the B1G will have, what, about 87 members?

Nice start to the week! As AJS said, it's nice to win a recruiting battle with two BIG 10 teams and get a player from the NTDP. My optimism for the team just keeps going up. Hopefully August 1 will make it go up more.

I'm considering a trip to the Ralph this winter. Have they announced any "One Last Shift" games?

Definitely. Hard not to give the award to Montgomery though. Might have been different if the vote was after the playoffs.

Good for him!
