Fetch Posted May 7, 2013 Author Posted May 7, 2013 How much effort do u think is put into recruiting a gem Quote
Goon Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Anyone mention Garth Snow yet? I think that guy is a P.O.S., personally, the guy wore over sized pads and in my opinion was a giant ass hat. Other than that, he was a good goalie. Quote

But didn't Garth Snow do a great job rebuilding the Islanders...that gigantic contract for Rick DiPietro...AWESOME! Speaking of which, DiPietro hasn't been mentioned yet...Boston University. Quote
grandforks Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Thanks for the catch. I was typing too fast. I meant to type "Glenn Resch" (from Minnesota-Duluth) and then kick into Craig from BU. Quote

Speaking of which, DiPietro hasn't been mentioned yet...Boston University. LOL right back at ya! I mentioned him in my earlier list. Quote
grandforks Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 But didn't Garth Snow do a great job rebuilding the Islanders...that gigantic contract for Rick DiPietro...AWESOME! The DiPietro contract is on Charles Wang -- the Islanders owner. Quote
Fetch Posted May 7, 2013 Author Posted May 7, 2013 Do the Sioux recruit in Europe How did we get Sparky Quote
MafiaMan Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 The DiPietro contract is on Charles Wang -- the Islanders owner. Snow was the GM... Quote
MafiaMan Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 LOL right back at ya! I mentioned him in my earlier list. Well-played...I was too busy chuckling over UMD's Jimmy Craig... Quote
siouxkid12 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Do the Sioux recruit in Europe How did we get Sparky He played in the ushl, I think it was in tri-city.... Quote
grandforks Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Snow was the GM... The deal was unofficially agreed to before Snow became the GM. The signing was held up due to insurance issues. Quote
Wilbur Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 I know Phil Lamoureax would have stopped the second Chicago goal tonight. To me that makes him NHL quality... Unless Nate Gerbe was shooting. Then probably not........ Quote
MafiaMan Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 The deal was unofficially agreed to before Snow became the GM. The signing was held up due to insurance issues. DiPietro signed a one-year deal the year before his 15-year deal. Snow was a cheerleader for the contract and was giddy about it at the press conference where the deal was announced. Quote
grandforks Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 DiPietro signed a one-year deal the year before his 15-year deal. Snow was a cheerleader for the contract and was giddy about it at the press conference where the deal was announced. http://sports.espn.g...tory?id=2584306 DiPietro and Wang talked about a 15-year deal last summer when DiPietro expressed he wanted to spend his entire career with the Islanders, who made the Boston University freshman the first goalie chosen with the No. 1 pick in the 200 draft. But hurdles regarding insurance of the contract killed those plans, and they agreed to a one-year deal worth $2.5 million. Both sides were pressed to come to a new agreement quickly as the Islanders open training camp this week in Nova Scotia. Wang has a policy that players who aren't signed in time for camp won't play during the season. Quote

I'm not defending Wang at all (boy that sounds funny, doesn't it?) but Snow could have talked some sense into the old coot before signing off on the deal. Instead, he was happy to retire from playing and step right into a GM job thanks to his goofball owner. Like I said, Snow was a cheerleader... Quote
MafiaMan Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 I defend my wang Defend him all you want, NY fans definitely got the short end of the stick in Wang's deal with DiPietro. Quote
Old Barn Guy at Home Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Former Sioux goalies that played in the NHL are (as best I can recollect): Bob Iwabucci (North Stars) Darren Jensen (Flyers) Jon Casey (North Stars/Blues) Ed Belfour (Blackhawks, Dallas Stars, Maple Leafs, Florida Panthers) Quote
