You shouldv waited and said we're going to hear some good news in the next 24 to 48 hours

Are you saying he's back? If so where did you hear this?

So when is this big news coming or is someone just having fun????

I've been looking at the thread waiting for this big surprise. Ok, not sure what your taking about. Thought maybe you were guessing on Schmaltz

Are you guessing?

Soooooooooo??????

It's been like 72 hours, ok maybe it hasn't been quite 48 but........WHATS THE HOLD UP???????

Greene, Stafford, Porter, Zajac

Anyone know what that Recreation and Tourism studies is? It sounds like a major that just helps certain athletes get through college till they go pro

Wasn't it the tourism thing that most of the hockey players that are drafted major in?

I was thinking the same thing with the second line, add Olson to replace LJ, that could work. Unless maybe Berry wants some more scoring and he could put Gersich on that line. I think Gersich just needs the right line mates and he could put up better numbers

Pretty much lol

Nope, didn't say laughing at someone's sexuality was a joke, I meant his comment I'm sure was meant to be a joke. No ones disrespecting anyone. But I think someone needs a nap ha ha. Its all good

It was meant to be a joke, no big deal. You have to learn to laugh about things and not get into the PC crowd!

Is that a guess? There's nothing on this site about him being gone yet

I always thought of LJ as a 4 year player

If Schmaltz, LaDue and LJ come back I agree, then we already have our top 2 lines set for next season, if not then I'm not sure. At least if Schmaltz comes back, I think he is the key player, otherwise we don't have a natural set-up guy.

Poganski?

I met him in the stairway at Amalie arena. Seemed like a really nice guy. We talked for a few minutes then he asked me my name and put his hand out first to shake mine and fully introduced himself. I've met a few hockey players but only him, Brett Hextall and Zack Parise put their hand out first which I thought was kinda cool

Minnesota beat us because our players thought the period was over and Minni kept playing which lead to a really soft goal

I wouldn't say the other team was the better team in any of those games. All Michigan had to do was play deffence and Hak didn't want to stop doing the dump and chase even thought it clearly wasn't working. Minnesota beat us cuz the Sioux decided the period was over for those .6 seconds. And I'm not going to say BU was the better team last year. And Denver this year, it's pretty hard to get the puck out of the zone when the team is doing everything in there power to keep it in including things that shouldv been called but were "missed". And Quinnipiac hadnt played a team like the Sioux the whole year. So I'm not going to say any of those teams were the better teams because I don't thing they were. This year was for the SIOUX and they proved it, plain and simple!

SHHHHHHHH, don't jinx us. Nothing against Keaton but I don't ever see him reaching the NHL

I think we have a couple that could anchor the blue line, don't think there's any worries there. Be good to have him back though

Good post, straight to the point!

If Johnson is beating out Tomeck to be the starter, makes me wonder how good Tomeck is. I would think Tomeck being a drafted goalie that he would be starting cuz it would seem like he's better, not saying Johnson isn't good it's just a weird situation to me. But now with Tomeck being healed up for the last 3 months as far as we know, I wonder if he'll beat Johnson for the starting position. PS: Some needs to tell Schmaltz to hurry up and make a decision cuz this is driving me nuts lol
