It takes a few games to adjust...Donovan's far from my boyfriend, but almost everyone needs an adjust from high school to USHL.

The loss of Sprig has made me reflect on something that I never reflected on. We all live our lives in the real world, and contribute or degenerate in the virtual world. My only online persona is this forum. I have always disassociated the two. However, the loss of a man that I interacted with online and had respect for... fun interactions, passionate interactions, some I'm proud of, some I'm less proud of...it causes me to pause. I have focused on always making a positive impact in my life, but I have often used this forum to vent- without filter..somehow feeling it wasn't "real". I am changed by Sprig's passing in terms of this reality. God Bless you Sprig. In Heaven there aint no beer, but I gotta believe that there's a big TV for Sioux hockey. And, yes, there is much more to life than Sioux hockey, and I wish your family the comfort of beautiful memories and joy of a life well-lived.

miss you on this board

Sounds more employable than recreation studies

he could go ntdp like his bro before arriving here...lots of potential

Saddened by this news. Peace and love to his family. He was an institution on here. I will miss him.

And Jost

Forgot Schmaltzy- my bad

Draft picks mean nothing...blue chippas...show me first round talent aka Parise, Stafford, Zajac, Oshie, Toews, Nelson, Boeser

He's a 3rd or likely 4th round pick according to Central Scouting. I'm not losing sleep.

Academics at D1 college hockey schools according to US News national rankings: The Ivy's scattered across top 15 Notre Dame #18 Michigan #27 BC #38 BU #42 Northeastern #44 Madison #49 RPI #49 Ohio State #56 Penn State #59 UConn #63 Umass Amherst #70 Minnesota #76 Michigan State #85 Miami #96 DU #96 Vermont #96 Clarkson #102 UNH #106 ASU #115 Michigan Tech #136 UMass Lowell #157 Maine #177 Robert Morris #183 UND #205 Bowling Green #215 All Others are lower

ASU for quality of co-eds...no brainer

Did you just quote yourself

SCSU's fan board is not letting anybody new on! That's kinda funny. i was actually going to congratulate them on a great season, and I was denied...which is pretty funny, considering LinkedIn and siouxsports is my only online presence

Well done sir Serves me right for multi-tasking

its still hockey though...and the beer tastes just as good after a long week

glad you boys could spend some time comparing who's......vocabulary......is bigger... sadly it doesn't change the fact that I'm watching UMD vs DU tonight

Thanks boys! Good luck in life's adventures. You are forever part of the Sioux family.

I have always respected you, and I gervwhat you're saying, but I'm not confident this group has it. I hope I'm wrong, buddy

Buyouts are an interesting thing...I've been through a couple. Not hockey, but business. There are exactly licit terms. And just cause you sign a contract for x dollars over y period of time, it doesn't mean you get paid all of it. You usually have a severance component, a vesting of other benefits, and an exit clause

In a position where that's never a good thing

Take it offline- happy to give you details.

We dont know yet...but they could be. Point is we were not good, and if just one of our recruits is like those guys...

In the big picture $400k is nothing. I live in a world where that salary gets you fired for underperformance fast.

A lot of guys lost minutes to some freshmen named Toews, Duncan and Oshie
