Ray77 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 If you haven't see or DVR'd ESPN 30 for 30: Of Miracles and Men. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmdb3PkGLd0 I remember MafiaMan saying he wish he saw Lokomotiv, not sure if he's seen it yet. http://sportsworld.nbcsports.com/lokomotiv/ Wow, that Lokomotiv video is pretty powerful.

MafiaMan Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 Did you happen to watch this? I DVR'd it and late last night got about halfway through but it was waaay too late and it was time to go to bed. I'll be watching later this week. Curious to hear your thoughts if you saw it.Two quick things I found interesting (minor details): I knew that Valeri Kharlamov died in August of 1981 and that he did not make the Canada Cup team that summer. I did not know that he was literally left at the airport as the plane was leaving the USSR and died in the car crash only a day or two later. Wow. Stunning that the Soviet team could even play in that tournament, let alone win it...not that they had a choice to fly home for Kharlamov's funeral I guess.* *side note: #17 has been retired by the Soviet Union (and now Russia) in international competition in honor of Kharlamov. Ilya Kovalchuk has worn the reverse of that, #71, in his honor. Did anyone else notice the changing spelling of Russian player names on their jerseys? What we commonly know today as "TRETIAK" was in fact spelled "TRETJAK" and "TRETYAK" on jerseys in different tournaments. The other player I noticed with different spellings was Boris Mikhailov, whose name was spelled both "MIKHAILOV" and "MICHAILOV." Quote
MafiaMan Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 Figured I'd move that 30 for 30 discussion elsewhere so we don't clog the NHL thread. Quote
SiouxScore Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Wild giving Dubnyk the start tonight in the big matchup at Winnipeg. Big blow for the Wild Jason Zucker is out about 3 months with a broken collarbone and he needs surgery on it. Ryan Carter will also miss around a month with a shoulder injury suffered last night.

Oxbow6 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Wild giving Dubnyk the start tonight in the big matchup at Winnipeg. Big blow for the Wild Jason Zucker is out about 3 months with a broken collarbone and he needs surgery on it. Ryan Carter will also miss around a month with a shoulder injury suffered last night. Zucker was 2nd on team in goals w 18. That's a big loss at this stage in the season. Sutter and Fontaine in for those 2. Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Blake Wheeler still gives me nightmares about that goal in the final five many yrs ago Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Blake Wheeler still gives me nightmares about that goal in the final five many yrs ago Yup.....happened right in front of me. He gave a little more effort to the puck than Lee did. Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 & I still want a Wild Blackhawk or Jets AHL team at the Ralph 1 Quote
cberkas Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 & I still want a Wild Blackhawk or Jets AHL team at the Ralph Wild and Blackhawks won't happen maybe the Jets move their AHL team closer which I highly doubt it will be Grand Forks. Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 So they each have just one ? Where is the Jets now ? Quote
cberkas Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 So they each have just one ? Where is the Jets now ? Jets AHL team is in St. Johns NL. There might be a team that is shared by more then one team. Minnesota move the Areos to Iowa a few years ago and Chicago has a team in Rockford. Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Do u think they are 100% owned by their NHL teams ? Quote
cberkas Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Do u think they are 100% owned by their NHL teams ? I's say not all, because NHL teams will switch AHL teams from time to time. Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Are there AHL teams with poor attendance Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 & the big question many will debate - If there was a AHL team that could come to the Ralph could the schedule be made to work with college & a AHL schedule ? & would the region support a team ? Quote

Shawn-O Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Dubnyk for Vezina! Flecther for GM of the Year! Yeo for Jack Adams!!!!! Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Dubnyk for Vezina! Flecther for GM of the Year! Yeo for Jack Adams!!!!! Dubs has been impressive. The other 2...meh. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Deflection off Nino's stick...nothing Dubs could do. 1-0 Jets Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 U know what name I'd like but I would seriously be a fan no matter that - like college hockey seeing potential NHLers would be fantastic I think the Ralph is so special & folks here love & appreciate hockey 1 Quote
Fetch Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 & with well over a 1/2 million in Winnipeg I think they would love to come down here & see their prospects UND Hockey has been a major reason for the love of Hockey here but it is not just the students and/or Alumni that make the Ralph as successful & as special as it is Quote
