I honestly couldn't care less about those end of the season awards. They are very subjective and most players would tell you they would trade those individual honors for a team championship every single time.

You are correct, sir. Sudden death doesn't kick in until March 25-27.

The game in bold above was a total team meltdown that started with the short-handed breakaway goal we gave up late in the 1st period. It wasn't just Cam Johnson. And I think what happened last Saturday night was a product of the emotions with the Friday game and the fact that Saturday's game had just a fraction of the meaning, thus it was hard to get up for. That won't be a problem going forward.

Cripes, he has one bad game the night after that emotional trophy presentation and everyone wants to throw him overboard. Cam Johnson will be fine.

Youth hockey is becoming almost like professional hockey. How much longer before we start paying the players?

Considering you are King of the Peanut Gallery, that is pretty rich.

No, the whole "pay for it yourself" garbage. Whatever happens with Jones, it is Faison's job, not mine and not yours. Some people on this forum wanted Mussman to finish out his contract. If we found the cash to buy him out, why couldn't we find the cash to buy Jones out? Simple question.

So, has he earned a 5 year contract extension?

It is a waste of time arguing with jdub27, all he has are the same tired old talking points. If Jones does come back for next season, then there had better not be a contract extension attached to it. He hasn't earned it and if he doesn't earn it next season, it is time to wish him well on his future endeavors.

Oh, I see, this is my problem to solve? Nope, it's Faison's problem to solve, that is what he gets paid to do. And I already give to the Champion's Club and have football and hockey season tickets, so you can take your smarmy comments and stick them where the sun doesn't shine. Or better yet, go back to Bisonville; it is clear you are a troll and couldn't care less about UND athletics.

So you are okay with mediocrity? Reality bites.....and it will bite for Jones if he doesn't do something in the playoffs this year and next year.

So is he going to get stuck in Europe for the majority of his career? I hope not.

How in the HECK did Stecher not get drafted? Late bloomer? He is as fundamentally solid as any defenseman we have ever had here.

Hey, come on now, the Badgers need some more creampuffs to make their record look more respectable.

Yes, that is always a risk, isn't it?

That is what I am thinking as well.

I imagine they want him to heal up so that he is back for the NCAA tournament, when every game is an elimination game.

Pure stupidity.

I hate to say "I told you so", but.....

You can only use that line so many times before it becomes stale. Jones has been here for over a decade and he owns the product on the floor. Nobody else.

They definitely don't want to lose on Senior Night, but with the league title wrapped up and their attention turned towards the playoffs, tonight is a possible trap game. It would be nice to maintain this momentum into the first round and beyond.

I wonder if someone will start b!tching about that too. I hope not, I think it is funny.

Not to be a grammar Nazi, but it's "roll". And written communication is easy to misread; that is why we have emoticons. Want a sweep tonight, even though we really don't need it.

I hope so, but a simple or (sarcasm) or /sarcasm at the end of the message would have cleared up any confusion.

Hey now, quit bringing common sense and logic into this debate! It's confusing the "Extend Jones" camp!
