Goon

Great news since I have him in my fantasy team.

I think a player almost has to pick their spots and take the use it wisely approach. I hope the guys stay away from the extra b.s. unless THEY have to drop the mitts to prove a point. This season so far the Sioux stayed out of the box more than other seasons.

I don't know Lemaire is a Canadian and I don't think we want to bore the fans with his style of play. I am think he is done after this season so It would be a nice trade off.

That stuff upsets me because they know if they did it in Jr's or the AHL/NHL they could get creamed for it. That is why I don't like the DQ rule in college hockey, I think its the reason there is so much stick work in the NCAA. If some of these guys had to stand up for their actions they would be less chippy and mouthy. Anyone notice when Jeff "After the Whistle" Taffe got to the NHL/AHL he didn't do as much hitting after the whistle and mouthing off? Because it wasn't college anymore and every team had a guy with cement hand that could pound him into oblivion.

I am thinking Malone might be tough I saw him out in the public one time and he is big kid. Not quite as impossing as Matt Greene or Finley but I think he could be a force to be reconded with.

What I don't understand is students are all adults they can vote, they can go to war, why in the hell do they need a list of rules this long.

Yeah good point.

That would lessen the blow if UND didn't make the NCAA's this season.

Yeah I didn't either. I would have called the fight a draw.

Reading all of those rules made my head hurt.

I was thinking the same thing.

Didn't Radke technically get into two fight in the DU game? (2)

Wow all they just could have said was NO FUN ALLOWED.

I don't understand that they win the Stanley cup and they can't fill their arena? I wonder if the Swedes would have done that if they knew the Canadians would drop the gloves. On the Espo leg check that was a penalty. But some of the other flops were down right silly. Europeans are bringing more and more stick work and bush league tactics to the NHL. Guys like Ruutu are a disgrace and someone should wipe the ice with his face.

That would be very nice.

I think we should send the settlement paper work to them.

Which doesn't make any sense to me because in reality UND would be a better option for the Summit league that SD base on our schools history and facilities. Also, the name is basically gone already so what the heck is the problem? Also why would they expand to 11 teams and not take on a 12?

I believe that you are right. I also think that if we can get a player that is a two and done the coaches still have to take them but not build a whole roster around them.

How did I get into this conversation. I thought Miami has a very weak SOS last season and feasted on weak teams. I also don't think they were as good as some wanted us to believe. I also think that if UND had played them in the tourney the Sioux would have won. Just my opinion and we never got to find out... RedHawk fans says that Miami is going to play the Sioux next season. Anyone know if that is true?

You're talking about the BWW on the south end right? That is a nice sports bar.

No there really is no difference if you picking up top free agents as opposed to picking players that are way past their prime or going cheap and that is what the twins have done lately. This doesn't devoid the fact that the Vikes suck at the QB position and the that twins are a bargin basement team. Lastly don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about because I have probably followed baseball longer than you have been alive. Not everything if an F'N contestt.

I think Malone or Hextall would be a good candidate. Also, I think we might be in for a Jones snap.

Put my bid in.

They are not going to send Finley out to fight he just got back from a Concussion.

I agree with Notred Dame they are a pretty good team, I also think the WCHA will be back on top soon if they stop losing all of these top players to the NHL every season.
