-
Quinnipiac ran into a hot goalie lmao
-
Are the Flyers having a better season there than in real-life?
I hope not, I don't like the flyers for some reason lol
-
I think either one of these teams would have beat the sioux in this game, that hurts to say
-
Wilbur? Emerald joker? Siouxman? Am I all by myself now?
I was playing nhl 13 during the intermision.
-
I don't think those penalties would be called I'm the WCHA, That's probably why we don't see em
-
That was goaltender interference, seriously? the commentator said the goalie got hit hard? WOW

Okay I'm going to get yelled at for this, Kristo and Knight were good they weren't great. Kristo head sparks of being really good but he needed to be set up. He had a hard time beating defenders to the net against the wall. I don't think he was game changer I would have taken Oshie over him any day. Not saying Kristo wasn't good but I don't think he's good is everyone says he is.
Knight was awesome at faceoffs but I wasn't going to count on him to score the game winning goal.
If Oshie and Toews were still on the team Kristo and Knight wouldv been on the second line, not saying they wernt good at all.

Dave Nonis, Senior Vice-President and General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, announced Wednesday that the hockey club has signed defenceman Andrew MacWilliam to a two-year entry level contract.
MacWilliam, 23, was selected by the Maple Leafs in the seventh round, 188th overall, in the 2008 Entry Draft. In 2012-13, he served as Captain of the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA), playing 41 games and leading the WCHA in penalty minutes (116).
Okay the more I see ongoing references to FIghting Sioux, the more i'm starting to think that it's time we push back on the NCAA. I know UND Administration can't support it and the people who attend games and sit on their hands think it's disloyal to UND to not move on, but really what if there was a grassroots effort that says, "We are the Fighting Sioux and we will remain the Fighting Sioux" deal with it. I think it goes beyond just having a closet full of Fighting Sioux shirts. It means not allowing the name or spirit of the name to disappear from sporting events. It means making sure incoming students understand the history and help preserve it. Big hurdle will be what happens when all the Fighting Sioux logo materials are sold out. Thoughts?
Right on!!!! That's why I'm not going to buy any new jerseys, just going to keep wearing my fighting sioux jerseys!

Brad did mention during the sports chat that the Kings risk losing him if he stays in school another year. At this point I would be very surprised to see Forbs back next year. Schmaltz along with Simpson will have to log lots of ice time next year.
Are you sure we want Schmaltz with Simpson and not a freshman? Lol I'm sorry I had higher expectations for Schmaltz and he didn't impress me at all.

You must not watch much NHL, look at some of the guys on some rosters currently. Knight is the type of guy who will definitely get a shot as he is great faceoff guy and a great 2 way forward. Kristo is a pure goal scorer with good speed, Casey Wellman played for the Wild and JT Brown got a chance with the Lightning last year and those are just 2 guys who got a shot with some NHL games soon after leaving college. Sooner or later both Knight and Kristo will get a shot in the NHL and you'll be the one looking foolish.
Ok not knocking Kristo but I honestly don't think he's going to make the NHL as quickly as people think. he wasn't fast enough or strong enough to be a lot of opposing forwads or defenseman to the net

Caggiula-Tambellini-Rocco
Sense I don't know anything about the freshmen coming in a line of Caggiula Grimaldi and Parks could be fun to watch
-
Hope he doesn't transfer to Harvard after he tweeted the mission statement!!
What did he tweet?
-
Even if Rocco didn't score as much as we thought it doesn't bother me cuz he worked his ass off every time he was out there. Seems to me I saw danny standing around more than he shouldv been against yale

You don't want Schmaltz anymore? He is only a freshman give him a chance to develop!
I guess my expectations are just too high for first rounders even though I think Schmaltz was really lucky to go in the first round. Seems like in last 10 years though we haven't had luck with first round defencemen.
-
Seems like were going to have to many forwards and defence unless they think that forbort is leaving which I don't think he's ready at all. St. Louis can take Schmaltz now!
First line I think
Drake or Mark-Rocco-Parks, I think Rocco is going to be the best at faceoffs next season, Mark has to work on them
Second line
Drake or Mark and whoever
Defence I think
Simpson and Forbort
Then I don't know. Captains, I'm thinking Hak might do the 3 seniors but I can't see any of them being captains, maybe Pattyn wears the C and Rocco,Simpson and Forbort with the A

Blais is about ready for retirement. We need to find someone young and hungry with a fire in the belly.
Eric Fabian, can't remember how to spell fis last name.

There has to be somebody even near the net there
There never is and there never will be!
