stoneySIOUX Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I'm going Duncs. Also might be the best overall person I've ever come across. Not just in Sioux history, but all time history. He's just a flat out dude. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fetch Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I'd say Cags & Greg Johnson both u sure noticed & I was amazed at their skill level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cratter Posted May 11, 2016 Author Share Posted May 11, 2016 You wanna be a Legend at UND?! Accomplish great feats that are rarely done: Win a championship. Get an impressive individual award (Hobey, Frozen Four MOP, etc). And show your committed to the program by staying awhile (watching them on senior night is preferred.)

KoolGuy2K Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I became a Sioux fan when I moved to Grand Forks in 2005, so I don't really know about a lot of the players in the past, but what I've seen I can narrow it down to- Forwards- Matt Frattin, Ryan Duncan, Caggiula Defensemen- Chay Genoway, Ben Blood Goalie- Eidsness 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people come into this thread to check on early departures and your discussing who were the best four year players. Let's stay on topic. Man, it sure is hard to scroll past a post that you don't think is pertinent, isn't it? Sometimes conversations go in tangents. Do check for these in your normal day-to-day?

Then he lost his spot to Dell so definitely wouldn't include him. Also, Blood could really punish guys but don't think he fits either. Just my opinion though!

Northcountry Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Pete Waselovich had 3,500+ career saves - no other goalie at UND has approached 3,000. He kept a very bad series of teams in games they had no way to win, stayed 4 years as a Boston draft pick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big A HG Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Mark Taylor, as mentioned above. And that's really the end of the thread, in my opinion if talking all time. For sure would have been our first Hobey in 1980 if it didn't start the following year in 1981 I would imagine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Eidsness was not the best, pretty sure he gave up a short handed hat trick to a Mankato player. I was giving the best "4 year" player for each position, since 2005 when I started watching. I think only Eidsness and JP Lamoureux were starters that stayed the full 4 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-RedSox fan Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I've only followed the team closely since the 2010-2011 season (Pony Express senior year), so I have a very limited ability to judge. For me the list would consist of Knight, Kristo, and Drake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJHovey Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 6 minutes ago, sioux rube said: Gotta go with Caggs followed by Mark Taylor and Greg Johnson Don't get me wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Drake play at UND. But I'm not sure he's even in my top 5 all-time UND players who stuck around four years. Yes, he won a championship. But so did guys like Taylor, Sykes, and Panzer, just to list a couple. I would take Mark Taylor, Greg Johnson, Phil Sykes, Dixon Ward and Jeff Panzer over Drake. That's no disrespect to him. Those were some great players. Greg Johnson was a three time Hobey finalist. Think about that. Phil Sykes was named one of the fifty greatest NCAA tournament players of all time. Taylor, Johnson, Ward and the rest put up numbers that dwarfed Drake's numbers. Drake scored 16 points and 24 points his first two seasons. Johnson more than tripled that in each of his first two season. Go ahead and try to name three players from Johnson's teams (that haven't coached at UND in the past two years) without looking at a media guide. Drake was fun to watch. I wish him well in his pro career. But we need to be realistic here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Ryan was a very good player for UND. I kind of look at him in the same light as a Chris Jensen or Brian Williams type of player. Just real solid four year players who could snipe the puck.
