The one time there's some good action..... Such is life. Ill be there in person tonight so hopefully it boils over

Yup. He was very impressive for an 8th grader. Lightning quick and great hands. As matures I'm sure he'll be a force and move on to juniors. The first time he got the puck I had to look at the roster because he stood out so much as he blew past three guys for a scoring chance.

Honestly I almost always wonder how they're going to replace the production of player a or player b from one year to the next and usually someone steps up.

Goon any video of the scrum that apparently happened? I was at the central game when it happened so I didn't get to see it.

I thought he was saying it was a joke that it was inaccurate

Game just finished central won in ot. Devils lakes goalie had 62. It's his second 60+ save game this year.

Devils Lake has one hell of a young goaltender. He's only a soph and is 6'3". Perhaps a future goaltending prospect.

Of course it does. They were absolutely stacked and couldn't get it done. I thought they were a better team than the '10 team that also blew it.

That sucks for both Rodgers and Und. It's what makes recruiting as entertaining as it is though.

Use the side door and know somebody who is working. I threw one on the ice at the Ralph a while back. Nothing like a frozen badger carcass sliding across the ice.

Who do you think was the best group of freshman ever at UND? My vote is for the 2006 Oshie Toews class as the greatest of all time. So much skill. High end draft picks all over the place. Great NHL impact.

Over/under 2 frozen badgers on the ice this weekend

If I had to chose between the two I'd go with sharp every time. He shows on film that he can get it done between the tackles and he runs with some fire.

The calm before the storm.... I hope

I hope he can develop into a dt. He's got an unbelievably strong upper body and could throw people around in the run game.

Those clips were from his junior year correct?

Since Jake Miller ran a 4.4 40 last winter it's safe to assume that Robertson is at least very close to 4.3 territory.

Jay Nelson is an example of a walk on. He showed up on campus and asked the coaches for a tryout and eventually became a starter. Devin Coyle is a freshman safety and was a preferred walk on from Mandan. Preferred walk ons participate in fall camp and often earn a scholarship. School start walk ons rarely last a full five years and proffered walk ons are much more likely to be retained. School start guys are either projects with raw potential like Jay or bodies to fill the scout team and work hard and sometimes earn playing time. A solid walk on program is a staple of a successful program. Und and ndsu have good walk on programs, Nebraska has one of the best.

Depth breeds competition for playing time which leads to greatness. The opposite situation is why our corners suck. We need to model other position groups after our wrs. They will all be better because of the competition and hopefully that creates a courageous competitive atmosphere with the whole team

I have some good news regarding the WRs for this next season. JJ Robertson is officially the fastest guy on the team. I've heard it's not even close and that his initial step is an explosion. Also he is very well built for a WR already. Mollberg and Bartels have themselves quite the opportunity.

I'm sure if there was anything to be worried about with Carr Iverson would tweet him about it since they seem to have built a decent relationship and tweeted eachother about the recruiting process before.

So teh 'hot goalie' was a hoax and we made it easier on him than we should have? Now that you mention it that is how I remember the game. UND was content to chase the puck around instead of pounding Michigan into submission like had been done to UMD and UM and basically every other team they played.

I hope that was just for scout team purposes. He's got an ideal frame for a dl in the 3-4.

My last post on this subject. You can talk to yourself about it if you need.

You are an incredibly bad reader. High level? You automatically think that means beyond highschool? You can play hockey at a high level and never play beyond highschool. I played your game. You'll keep moving the line so I won't worry about getting there.
