Smoggy Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 The great thing about the OLN announcers is that every time they talk about Hale, Parise or Commodore they always mention that they went to the University of North Dakota. Quote

Siouxmama Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 While watching the Oilers game and the announcers also mentioned Matt Greene as being from the "NCAA collegiate powerhouse North Dakota". It's great to hear these guys talking about the college teams that the players are coming from. You hear lots of WCHA names. Quote

It's great to hear these guys talking about the college teams that the players are coming from. You hear lots of WCHA names. Yes and in fact in the San Jose-Edmonton game the first goal was scored by Tom Preissing, a former WCHA(Colorado College) player. That's always nice to see. Quote
Sioux_Hab-it Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I didn't find a seperate game thread but Stafford just set up the one move wonder for a goal so USA is up on Canada 1-0 Quote
Siouxmama Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I didn't find a seperate game thread but Stafford just set up the one move wonder for a goal so USA is up on Canada 1-0 Where are you watching this game? Quote
Sioux_Hab-it Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Where are you watching this game? On the home TV here in Ottawa. If you have Center Ice they should be carrying the feed in the US. At least they did in the past. If not you can listen to it by going to the USA Ice Hockey Web site. First period is over still 1-0 USA and the shots were 9-5 for Canada Quote
sprig Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Crosby tied it in the 2nd and Shanahan has given Canada a 2-1 lead in the third. You can follow here if you're not listening to the audiocast. 2 minutes left. Quote
Sioux_Hab-it Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 It has ended at 2-1 for Canada. Stafford didn't look out of place and had one of USA's better shots on net in the third period. It would also appear that he is over his knee injury. Quote

redwing77 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 did you watch the game? or listen? He stated earlier he was watching it on tv at his home in Ottawa. Quote
PCM Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 He stated earlier he was watching it on tv at his home in Ottawa. But maybe he watched with his eyes closed. Unless you ask, you don't know. Quote

Goon Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Speaking of Commodore they featured him and his robe on Don Cherry's Coaches Corner tonight and Cherry has agreed to wear the robe for a future show if the Canes advance. Me thinks that Commie is going to win the bet. The Canes are on fire right now getting all of the right bounces. The Canes are a different team since Ward got hot, Gerber is now the forgotten man between the pipes. Commie was pictured on the ice wearing a white robe with rubber shoes, it was a cool segment.

siouxforeverbaby Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Commodore just got into a fight with Langenbrunner, 2 minutes each. Score: Canes- 2, Devils -1 Quote
Siouxmama Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Commodore just got into a fight with Langenbrunner, 2 minutes each. Score: Canes- 2, Devils -1 Game over. Canes 3 Devils 2. Quote
DAR Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Commodore just got into a fight with Langenbrunner, 2 minutes each. Score: Canes- 2, Devils -1 It was not what you would call a fight....they each fot 2 minute minors. John Davidson was commenting on how he could not believe how much Commodore has improved this year. He gets a lot of ice time and is a regular on the penalty kill. He has come along way from his freshman season to a NHL regular. His red curls go well with the Canes uniforms. Quote
Let'sGoHawks! Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 I have noticed they really like UND on OLN, always giving us props. Quote
Sioux_Hab-it Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Matt Greene got a fair share of the ice time in Edmontons 3-2 win. He also got a couple of good shots off from the point and nearly had the first goal of the game. Quote

NDFAN Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Looks like Matt Greene was on the ice for the GWG in last night's Oilers game! His picture is at the top of the story in the USAToday online. Good to see he's getting some playing time in OT. What happened to the Devils and Senators? Not that I'm complaining, but where's Vanek? Quote

Good to see he's getting some playing time in OT. What happened to the Devils and Senators? Not that I'm complaining, but where's Vanek? I don't know what happened to the Devils but it would appear that the Sens had it too easy in the regular season and can't deal with a team that pressures them with speed. As for Vanek, his playing time has been limited due to his lack of defensive play. After the Philly series you could still see Ruff picking pieces of Vanek's left ear from out of his teeth. Quote

AZSIOUX Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 It was good to see Greene in the lineup. He'd been a scratch for the last couple of weeks. matt has been in the lineup for the last 2 oilers gmes... Quote
#1siouxfan22 Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 This is where Vanek is. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=165459&hubname=nhl Thomas Vanek is the most likely candidate to take Connolly's spot. Vanek was second on the team in goals scored during the regular season. The Austrian was a healthy scratch in the first two games of the series, both won by Buffalo, because Ruff opted to use Taylor Pyatt, who is more responsible defensively Quote
