Big A HG Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Does all this mean we are getting a new state-of-the-art arena in a few years? Quote
farce poobah Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 In 1997, we had a player that was drafted by the NHL ... The MOP of the 1997 Frozen Four was a guy named Matt. ..... Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 In 1997, we had a player that was drafted by the NHL ... The MOP of the 1997 Frozen Four was a guy named Matt. ..... Henderson is one of my favorite past Sioux players. Quote
nodakvindy Posted March 28, 2011 Author Posted March 28, 2011 Also, there is a crest of 50+ feet projected for Grand Forks, ND. Didn't really wanna touch that one, cause I'm hoping that doesn't repeat itself. (Although technically I don't think 50 feet was projected in 1997 and that was a big part of the problem). Quote
