MissSioux85 Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Neat opportunity for fans near the Twin Cities. It looks like the 'season' kicks off tonight. Quote Da Beauty League lives by the attitude of the Beauty. On summer nights, the DBL will have NHL players squaring off in four-on-four hockey at Braemar Arena. Season tickets: $25. Single-game tickets: $5 Team Rosters Includes former UND players Zach Parise, Danny Kristo, Brock Nelson, Ben Blood, Jordan Schmaltz, Drew Stafford, Taylor Chorney, Chris Porter, and Joe Finley. Also, Brock Boeser is playing on Team Velocity. Quote

I saw his house went off the market. I'm sure he had a hard time trying to sell it. Quote

He never really impressed me that much when he was at UND, I think he was talked up too much before he got there and never really reached his full potential. If he was as good as he was spose to be he wouldntv been at UND for 4 years sense he was drafted, just my opinion. I think when you see a player only being given a 1 season 2 way contract it's only a matter of time before they head over seas. Unless he being kept for the Las Vegas thing which I don't really understand, I'll have to read up on that. Quote

If he was as good as he was spose to be he wouldntv been at UND for 4 years sense he was drafted, just my opinion I think he was a very impressive individual player that got by mainly on his physical skills (skating, hands, shooting ability) all the way through college. He never developed the hockey sense to become a full time NHL player, or a really, really dominant NCAA player (like Boeser will be this year). He probably could've left as early as after his sophomore year, but I don't think a whole lot would've been different in terms of his pro career. Kristo and Grimaldi seem to have the same issue, all the skill in the world, just severely lack hockey sense. If you don't know where to be on the ice or what play is the right one, all that skill doesn't really matter. Quote
northernraider Posted August 3, 2016 Posted August 3, 2016 Mostly a piece promoting online education, but good for Grimaldi http://undnews.areavoices.com/2016/08/02/goal-oriented-former-und-hockey-standout-earns-degree-while-playing-in-nhl/ 1 Quote

St. Louis C/F situation has been gutted as of late and he was the leading goal scorer on a half decent Wolves team. I think he will get his shot at the NHL soon. Quote
Frozen4sioux Posted August 4, 2016 Posted August 4, 2016 I think Kristo has earned a call up, a shot at NHL ice but I don't see him sticking as a full time NHLer. Like Grimaldi he needs to find that situation where he can slot into that second line. He doesn't have 1st line talent, He lacks the 2 way play and drive it seems to gain the versatility of the other roles that 3rd and 4th lines an play....i.e. Vandeveldes, Porters, Malones of the world, in order to get a toe hold on a big club. Europe may very well be in his future, but you never know, this Vegas thing will create jobs and openings so sticking around the American League this year should be a priority for guys like him. 1 1 Quote

It is always good for both when someone signed a contract with someone as a free agent but there is one good news for New York Rangers that Keith McCambridge signed a contract with the New York Rangers as an assistant coach of the Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL). He spent last 5 seasons as the head coach for 2 AHL teams: the Manitoba Moose and the st. John’s icecaps. He also spent 6 seasons with Alaska of the ECHL. Quote
