Goon

They won't because they have so many league games and the Show Case and the GLI. So it won't happen unless they increase the number of games a team can play.

Not true, the systems starts with their Goal Tending coach Bill Howard, they totally rework a goaltenders game to fit the system. That is why Connelly is just starting to play in Wiscsonsin. They have to wait their turn. If you don't believe in the systems approach you don't go to UW and if your a goaltender you play their way or nothing. Its about buying into a boring system. I don't believe for a minute UW is going to change their perspective. Cornell plays the same crappy style of hockey.

That would be nice to get a throphy to start the season off.

I bet we might want to wait until the first round is over before we make an predictions or bold statements.

I am affraid they are going to give the award that Duncan deserves to someone out east. That would be a travesty in my opinion.

Just looked at that. They should have flown out last night and bused up from MPLS.

Wouldn't it be easier to fly?

North Eastern is a tough team and plays the goalie that UND was looking at that decided to go to NE.

I hope you don't take it personal? Argument is good, I lose everyone I have with my wife at home. Moy's writings are amusing but the nc$$ isn't going to send Michigan anywhere but to Grand Rapids, the Michigan fans are going to stack the regional and its not going to be well attended if Michigan isn't in there. I am wondering if Minnesota will get tossed in there too. I am hoping Minnesota get stuck in Denver, they deserve it.

Do you want to bet a beer on it? Its not going to happen. Michigan will be in Grand Rapids, you can put it on your callender right now if you want.

Seriously, Michigan will probably we in Grand Rapids, I would bet money on it, especially if MSU doesn't make the tourney. So the bracket that they have will not happen. Just a hunch.

UND's schedule didn't come out till like spring or summer last season. It would be interesting to see what we get next season.

Sounds like a cheaper version of Boone's Farm. Yuck..

He doesn't have to

Ok, but if your an offensive star why would you want to play on a team known for being an defenisve trap style team? Second, the ECAC isn't exactly what I would consider a power house conference. I don't get it. If I want to go to school to get a degree and get into poltics sure Ivy makes sense to me but if your a potential NHL draft choice why wouldn't he show case that talent in a league that is more prolific. What ever, if he wants to go to a second rate hockey school so be it.

That is well said and I agree with your statment. Also, ND has the 40th toughest schedule so it would appear they are feasting on cup cakes.

Does anyone know if this guys is really in the know or is it just back room babble? I am not sure what Cornell would have over us or Denver? If you want to play in the NHL the WCHA is the way to go.

According to the experts on XM 204 that by acquiring Smith from the Oilers they are hoping they can sign one of the two UFA's Blake and or Smith at the end of the season. The Islanders are in a middle of a playoff chase so they are going to take their chances on Blake. I guess his four points tonight makes his case.

And a Assist.

Ussually isn't the home WCHA playoff series during spring break? Ussually its not hard to get tickets.

I am still hoping we get NASH. Here we go, sounds like a sniper plays right wing. 57 games 49 goals and 33 assists for 82 points

Could be a regional thing too. I don't know if I could coke one down anymore, but I remember when I was in college Busch Light was like 10.99 a case so it tasted good at the time.

There will be a banner hanging in the concrete center for that one.

The only one that matters is the one at the end of the season in March.
