Yup, agreed. I just think there is some bias to this witch hunt. In my time here on this forum I have caught on that there is a certain group of Bruin fans, Redwing fans, etc. Not too many Penguins fans other than Dave. I am a Blackhawks fan but I do enjoy watching the Penguins play...their PP is ridiculous. That being said, it is easy to point out certain (minor) flaws in a player that plays for a team you don't like....especially the best player on planet Earth. I don't mind the Bruins, they play a great D game and have one of my other favorite players (Bergeron) however they can get dirty at times. That is ok too as there will always be dirty teams (there always has been). When it comes playoff time you do what you have to do to win....I can understand that completely. That's why I don't have a huge knock on the Bruins....every team has their strengths.

I agree with that....there will always be players trying to draw penalties as long as there is hockey. Complaining too much for "no calls" shows little class. I like Crosby a lot (so do tons of his fellow Canadians....Toews, Bergeron, Staals, etc) however to say Crosby doesn't ever complain is a lie. He'll whine a little to the refs. However if you ask any player in the league if they would like to play with Crosby...they would say yes without having to think about it. That would inlcude the same players I just mentioned.

Wow....and here I thought I was the biggest pessimist on this forum

I'm tentative....I have a lot of buddies down that weekend but will try to make it.

There are tons of players in the league that are great at drawing penalties....Crosby just happens to be the best player in the league and he is great at drawing penalties. I mean, he learned from the best....Lemieux was one of the best players in the league at drawing penalties during his time.

Great article! Thanks for posting.

I understand not too many people like Crosby on this site however you cannot ignore his talent on the ice nor his production every year (on average). I do have Toews as my #2 overall player in the league due to his achievements. Crosby and Toews are by far my two favorite players in no particular order.

Mabe I will come this year. I know someone was getting a skate together last year, hopefully someone decides to get that going again.

You guys are probably right....bring on Miami. I have a hunch SCSU loses one night to CC.

I completely agree...personally I would rather face CC.

haha I hope you're right. I was all in last weekend in Cloud and came away heart broken. Lost $50 to my Husky buddy....drank away my sorrows that night though

Agreed....it seems to me WMU is streaky where they end up winning some games they probably shouldn't and losing games against some bottom feeders. Again, the schedule in the NCHC is so tough it can be mentally draining. There are no cupcakes. Even Miami has one of the better college players in the entire country who can take over a game.

Agreed....they have been playing much better. I'm calling split there too. I have a negative feeling we may split against WMU however. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Wtf

I'm glad the refs played it fair tonight .....laugher

F"n pattn

Not true, the expectations for this team (from my point of view) was not a natty. Just to work hard and learn the college game. The only time I criticize the Sioux is when their compete level is lacking.

Agreed....it's been a roller coaster. I do like the product on the ice.

I wonder if trapping a little more might stop them from cutting to the middle so much.....it worked in the Olympics

Oh I get it....good one, pretty original and well thought out. Anyway, have a good day guys I have to get my hairs clipped then off to Cloud Town.

Exactly! He is probably a lonely mad guy and wants to piss people off the whole week. There is no way he is a real Sioux fan. My very last response to him was last week....won't happen again. That's all he wants.

To who?

Because I said one comment noting they looked a little slow of the gates? Come on....as soon as we got a nice size lead you filled this board with posts trying to get gfhockey to bite. You antagonize that poster pretty much all week long...although in your defense he may deserve a lot of what comes his way. Just annoying to read.

Yup reverse psychology...it worked . Anyway my one comment last night is not equal to the 10+ troll searching posts he puts up.
