I think he probably saw the REA when the World Jr's were in Grand Forks and knows about the rink.
Also, everyone knows if you want to play for NCAA titles and get prepared for the NHL UND is a great path to take. I don't think it hurts having three coaches that are Canadian either.
Here are the Goon's

I read that in the paper the other day, what did that guy think would happen. Lets see I'll just stab my team mate no one will notice and I will get to take his starting job. Whew. What goes on in some of these people minds. Thats almost as bad as playing you buddy in a match in golf, the guy is beating you by 5 strokes and you club him over the head with your driver. UGH.
I agree that is a good idea. I think your going to see more guys wearing them that play defense, but I also think they are going to be mandatory before too long. On the flip side I noticed Brandon Bochenski didn't wear one last season.
So if Hale doesn't have a signed contract what is he doing playing in the Devils line up? Can anyone explain this. You would think if he ever got hurt the devils would be liable would they?
Kessel is wearing number 81 the Bruins, had two assists last night against the dirty habs. Actually I am glad that you put him in there. I will be having Kessel updates on my blog as the season goes along being that I am a big Bruin's fan, but also because Sioux fans have such a Kessel obsession. If we are to believe the words on one very biased Gopher fan.
I am not sure you realize this but that was an awesome post dude. Seriously. That is awesome for people that don't have a lot of time, that was perfect.
Well lets just say, I am no lawyer but it would appear that the ncaa wasn't even consistant in their enforcing the policy since they have not held all the schools to the same set of rules. The NCAA has been inconsistant at best.
I think that the link that PCM brought up is way more scarey in my opinion. None of these kids in the Jesus camp are talking about strapping bombs to themselves and blowing up mosques.
