  1. The good thing about this years team is that the reffs cant give Hextal a penalty for violating his 4 foot restraining order like they loved to. If we stay out of the box we can win, if we give those piss heads too many powerplays we're probably screwed.

  2. And they probably said they were angry last Friday too. They always talk a big game when they're being interviewed, but it's different to do it on the ice.

    They dont have anyone on their team that leads like they used to in Ballard and Potulny and others when they would actually win playoffs titles.

  3. Other than them being UA jerseys, they look pretty sharp. I hate the look of the way UA jerseys fit.

    They are a little baggy. The only company that has figured out fit is Adidas which look almost like they've been painted on.

  4. I think when Murray said his team would be tough to play against I think he forgot to mention horrible to watch. Sioux played ok. Maybe it's a good thing that they didn't start off too hot and found a happy medium between not showing up and steam rolling.

  5. They are working on getting everything out of the old Ralph. The department that uses the entry addition is waiting for their new space to be remodeled. The building should be empty by summer at the latest. The building will probably come down this summer.

    By everything do you mean the lead based paint, asbestos, and Jimmy Hoffa?

  6. Maybe it's just the picture, but it doesn't look Kelly Green. Looks more like the Michigan State color.

    It is the picture. It looks like they're in a dark basement in that picture. I like the look of them. Not perfect but how could we expect that with a short amount of time. They will look just fine tomorrow. I'm curious though to see the black ones and if they are any different from the green and whites like those gorgeous nike ones we had before the switch to reebok.

  7. I now see that Draeger, Pat Brown and Laverdure were listed as redshirts. Also, Adler is listed as a TE but is the No. 2 FB.

    Adler is a classic h back. He can plug in and be effective at multiple positions

  8. If it is the remodeling of the locker rooms at Memorial Stadium it must mean that the Indoor practice facility is way on the back burner. The reason I say that is I thought new offices and locker rooms were going to be in the new practice facility. Am I wrong on that? I am sure they wouldn't put money into Memorial Stadium if the big project was close to happening.

    That stuff is easily relocated to the facility once it's built. Memorial in the mean time needs a face lift and is getting it.

  9. Shouldn't the goofers been motivated last friday? They get down by a couple saturday and you will see the white towel waving.

    You can never put too little stock in the weak psyche of Lucia coached teams. They just don't get it done unless they have those ridiculously talented rosters of years past to overcome their lack of heart.

  10. I'm not bashing Nelson or saying he shouldn't sign I just don't think he will.While I know Nelson is a good player and has great statistics he still has some things to work on. Nelson will still need to put on some muscle before he is NHL ready and a lot of the opportunities he gets come because of Kristos play and teams focusing on Kristo. I really like Nelson as a player and person and have seen him play since high school since we were in the same section. I believe Nelson really loves the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux and has a lot of pride for the program and just don't see him wanting to leave that behind.

    Put 20+ pounds on him and you've got yourself a monster. Right now he is a bit frail.

  11. I hope there is some way to hold on to Nelson Forbort and Kristo for next year. With O'Donnell and Gramaldi coming back hungry after being ripped off by injury and some good freshman that team could be unreal and by far the deepest at goalie and defense in a long long time.

  12. I'm not talking about pattyn. You said Mario sucks... now go enjoy your crow

    He does suck. 3 goals on the year. His value is in the locker room not on the ice. He's a good penalty killer and grinds well and is a hard forechecking forward and......... is devoid of most offensive skills. No one is more happy for him than me but don't tell me he's a great player cause he just isn't. He'll make a great coach someday and has provided invaluable leadership to the youngsters on the team but once again don't try and say he's a great player

  13. Way to show this poster he is clueless Mario. Hell of an effort on that game winning goal fighting through 3 goofers to get in position to get the puck on his stick. His work ethic and leadership is what Fighting Sioux hockey is all about.

    I stand by what I said. It had been a while since he scored and once again it was all heart no skill from him. Don't forget that it was Pattyn being a monster on the boards that set that up.
