Goon

I would call it a cup check. Mike just want to make sure Punkovich was wearing his cup. Apparently it still hurts quite a bit even when your wearing one.

UND is 9-1-1 in the last ten games in Denver's arena. I hope UND can make that 10 in twelve games tomorrow night.

George snapped tonight, standing on the dasher and yapping at the officials. I can't wait to read the Denver Post tomorrow, it should prove to be some good reading.

Things look good tonight, the Fighting Sioux needs to win tomorrow night. Things should shake out the next couple of weeks.

Potetic justice. Irony. I was watching the game with a buddy and we got a good chuckle out of it. If Prp would have did that to another player it probably would have been a 5 minute major, but the officals called it appropriately in my opinion.

How do you sleep after eating that?

I would bet that the above poster ATLSioux didn't play hockey either. If I had been a player I would have spent a lot of time in the box myself.

I would love to see a sweep of the Pios this weekend.

I think we should at least expect our players to play the game and really not focus on that Punk unless he commits more aggregious acts of violence. That being said we don't really want our team to come off as a bunch of classless thugs like Punkovich. Were not in the playoffs as of yet so I hate to say it that maybe our boys will take the high road and play the game.

Right now the weather is so poor, its snowing again and its going to be a long day of shoveling and snow blowing, I have to go walk the dog before it gets too deep.

That is sweet because I will not have to watch the game on saturday on delayed telecast. Very nice to see. I suppose we are going to be stuck with Denver's homer announcers though. Or do we get our two rubes. I actually listened to them last week and they weren't that bad.

FCS (you have to have the extended sports package on Midco) on the like 316 at 835 pm tomorrow night.

Now that is funny.

Me thinks this might be a troll or skippy and might need to post an alert, UND is very much alive in the NCAA picture. I think after the CCHA playoffs UND will definately move up in the RPI and PWR rankings.

I assume this mean that Bina has been give full clearance to play in contact sports again? The kid has guts if he decided to play hockey again. I guess I definately admire his determination and grit.

Derian Hatcher looked slow on his feet and was constantly beat, from watching Boston a lot this season on NHL center ice I thought Leetch has played well enough to make the USA team, but what do I know I am just a fan, I do think he has been a good player for USA hockey, he is long in the teeth though and maybe the olympic selection team say things the common fan didn't see, I suppose Brian being injured a good part of the season didn't help either. I am also uninspired by team USA effort during the olympics. I guess we will see a new olypic team in 2010. I hope they play with more inspiration than they did this year.

I think that Gionta and Leo played really well in the olympics, I was thinking how good they played but the rest of teams effort wasn't there. I think that USA needs to get some core guys together like the four mentioned above and have them play together in a World Championship a few times and dump some of the old weight. However, I do also fell that Chelios played pretty good during the olympics, what miffs me is why wasn't Brian Leach in the Olympic Games this year.

I think that is possible. I can think of a couple of possibilities.

Fair enough.

I would love to see it or heck send Marvin after him. Unlike Dave K I believe in righting a wrong.

I posted a article on Punkovich on my blog. http://ndgoon.blogspot.com/ As you know I hold this clown with the highest regard, I would probably compare him to a piece of excrement. I hope some day Punkovich has to pay for his crime against Robbie I really do. But I don't want to see a top player suspended or hurt because Denver when head hunting after we righted a wrong. Ala Bertuzzi. Denver in my opinion is a pretty dirty team and UND will have to keep their heads up anyways as the Gophers found out last weekend. That being said I don't think UND will be intimidated by the Pios. At last, I don't care if Pioneer fans think we are wrong to some how fault Punkovich, or still hold a grudge against him. I guaraentee that if we had done the same ot one of their players they would be spouting off the same stuff. They need to realize it was a dirty cheap act.

The games will be on Fox College Sports. Its like 316 or 317 on the extended digital package on Midco net. The second game is on at 2100 hours and is about one hour late due to Basket ball of all things. Both games of the MSU-M and Denver series were on this channel too.

Are you a math wizard? It seems that you are really good at doing number and stats.
