I, unfortunately, agree.

No. Regarding Confederate generals: not tossed into the garbage can of history, but not memorialized on the steps of courthouses and government property either. Remove them and put them in a museum with the rest of America's unsavory history. After all, these were the generals who helped lead the secession from the United States of America, breaking up our country with the aim of continuing slavery. For those supporting the statutes of these traitors, I can't wait to see you also support the statutes memorializing the leaders of CHAZ/CHOP when they attempt to seceded from and break up our country as well.

Not minimizing the severity of suicide or suicide attempts at all. AT ALL. I agree the lockdown is not good for mental health. However, Dr. deBoisblanc's full quote was: "I mean we've seen a year's worth of suicide attempts in the last four weeks." Unfortunately, the Washington Examiner shortened that (and actually misquoted him) as saying he's seen a "year's worth of suicides" in the last four weeks, which better fits the Examiner's misleading headline that there have been more suicide deaths than coronavirus deaths. Go to the actual source; don't accept the media's spin as truth. Take care out there and be kind to one another.

Love how Leipsic's penchant for cocaine/MDMA use is the buried story here. Hope it was just him and not the other members of that group . . . . Also, funny how "locker room" talk gets you booted from the locker room in DC these days but it won't stop you from taking elected office in the White. . . . -

My same concern (among many in general right now). If the season is delayed and/or in a precarious spot later this summer, do we see JBD, Kierstad, Kawaguchi, etc. sign pro contracts or look elsewhere to play. To Tychonick's point, you gotta play to keep developing . . . . -
I want Duluth hobeys to stop too. Lessard's trophy may also have to do with having more goals and points than Parise. Also, Lessard didn't have another hobey finalist (Bochenski) on his team. I agree Parise's a better player though. Interesting stats about the NHL games. Good thing for Ryan Duncan, the hobey is based upon a season in college, not a career in the pros.

Me too! I was most excited to see his ranking, and he actually dropped a spot! What da f. . . ?

Not sure I like the US-18 game on Dec. 12. End the first half with an exhibition game and come back cold a month later straight into league play. -

Picked up a few on the Engelstad auction with aim to frame a jersey with every logo/every decade-ish. Got a lot of vintage memorabilia to go with it. But really want a white nike dazzle that I can have EPS fashion into a Toews. Let me know if you have an extra for sale---my wife says I over pay, and might also have a gemini geo or two if a trade could help get the deal done!!!!!!!!! Also happy to take any old, vintage memorabilia (pins, patches, etc) off your hands. Go Sioux.

With the 2020 NCHC title, Engelstad will be hanging 27 championship banners next year. Let's not start hanging participation banners now. -

Right on. I think 82-83 through 85-86 seasons were especially a hodge podge of uniforms. -

Frozen4sioux's moniker is a good example. I think that is what the Sioux were using in 80, 82. I like the Boston Bruins banners. The logos/B's on those banners show slight variations over time and history, but those variations are consistent with the actual logo the Bruins were wearing. -

May not be the exact, current blackhawk logo, but those logos are absolutely 100% not the logos on UNDs jerseys in the 70's/80's. The easiest way we know this is that the logos for the 80 and 82 seasons were different than in 87, but every blackhawk-style banner in Engelstad has the same logo. -

I like them too. And hate to be a stickler, but really wish they had the actual logos UND was using. Every time I see 1980, 1982, and 1987 now, I think modern day Chicago Blackhawks. It might be a trivial distinction to most, but UND's never had that logo on their jersey. -
I want to say, "Exactly" for this one, too. Not taking anything away from Ryan Miller's incredible season, but it pains me that Jeff Panzer's jersey is not hanging in the lobby of the Ralph. What other player with 81 points in the 2000s didn't win a Hobey? Panzer had more assists that year than the third hat trick member (Brian Gionta) had points.
-
Exactly. Is there any precedent for a CPOY (Perunovich) losing the Hobey to the runner-up CPOY (Kawaguchi)?
-
Probably. Way, way too many Duluth Hobeys though. Will this be 6?

Sell and put advertisements on their free online articles. Also disappointed to see Tychonick go. -

Right. Hate to see the #48 pick in the draft leave for another college after two years. But maybe with those who are staying and those coming in, playing time could be tight next year. I’m hoping this is a sign Kierstad and JBD are back. -
