Wishing Nick a full recovery.

I guess I need to find a new fantasy player. I hope he recovers fast. I did well with him in the lineup.

I still wonder what the 1986-87 "Hrkac Circus" national championship team would've been with this guy as a freshman forward.

Gotta love the glaring typo by the School (!) on its dot matrix, tractor-fed paper banner hanging across the trophy case.

It's Bemidji. ;) :D 

And I bet you it was daisy-wheel fed paper with the edges torn off. :p

He was a friend of mine and he was a hell of a football player. We were teammates. He was one nicest guys You’d ever met. He would’ve excelled in any sport he played in if he hadn’t been taken from us. 

He had one of the hardest slapshots I’ve ever seen. He blew people up,when he tackled them. He was a physical specimen. 

I was in Army stationed in Germany when a friend and teammate of mine sent me a letter about George’s death. It devasted our high school. My dad sent me a copy of a the hockey news and they covered George’s funeral. I still get sad today when read about his death.

It is an absolute shame.  I visited with someone that played hockey for Bemidji around the same time and you could tell years later it still affected him.  Even a bigger shame that the brother destroyed another family while driving years after his drunk driving accident with George.

Jost sent down to the A

Good lord I feel bad for him.... Forever the poster child for Top picks NEEDING time to develop. I just wish Colorado and Tyson would have chosen better.

Jost was a 3 year NCAA player if I've ever seen one.

Hopefully he gets his game straightened out in thr AHL.
