Whats disappointing to me is the fact that some of the players that the media voted for as first team guys didn't even make the 3rd team. Like one of the guys had Sam Brittain as the first team all WCHA goalie..... :glare:

Pretty fair selections though, I agree with 90% of the picks.

You're doing a disservice to your players by not listing the All-Academic players. (Star means they've won the award before, although how could Maris have won already? He must be academically a junior?)

Ben Blood*

Brett Bruneteau

Brent Davidson*

Brad Eidsness*

Matt Frattin

Chay Genoway*

Jason Gregoire*

Brett Hextall*

Ryan Hill

Mario Lamoureux*

Derrick LaPoint*

Andrew MacWilliam

Right, Tate Maris is I believe 21? He was credit wise, a sophomore at UND when he was named the team's 3rd goaltender last year.

Didn't the league used to announce the awards on the Wednesday before the Final Five? I don't remember these being announced before the playoffs began.

They used to be announced at an awards banquet Thursday afternoon before the play-in game, but with the new format (2 games Thurs) they had to eliminate the banquet.

EDIT: FHG beat me to it.

looks good but blood has a arguement to be on one of the teams. go sioux. congrats to the players! 8 games to go

I agree...both Blood and Mac IMHO. Unfortunately this voting tends to lean VERY heavily on stats alone...especially for dmen, making offensive dmen first teamers and defensive dmen mostly left out in the cold.

They were talking about something along these lines on the radio last night too. More so about the "Defensive Player of the Year" award and how they should change it to the "Defensive Player with the most points" Award.
