The Sicatoka Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Ben Strinden's bio says, "Believed to be the eighth Fargo, N.D., native to play for North Dakota." I can't get to eight.

That's a clean miss by me. Walski played for Fargo North. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 Brian Williams (circa 1986) Gary Kaiser Pat O'Leary Aaron Walski Tyler Kleven The first four there are Fargo North. Kleven should've been Fargo Davies but was US NTDP. Side note: Fargo has to name schools after UND grads, Carl Ben Eielson, Judge Ronald Davies, for some reason.

tnt Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/display_players.php?tmi=8646 If you click on the birthplace, it sorts them. It only has one more, which is Brian Lee, although he played for Moorhead. It doesn't have a birthplace for Kaiser, but yeah, he played at North.

Should I be embarrassed that I'd never heard either name before now? And I'm the guy who knew last year that Brady Ferner was the third ever South Dakotan to play for UND (brothers Prince and Buzz Johnson, Webster, SD).

For those who may not know, Eielson, born in Hatton, made the first flight from North America to Europe over the North Pole. Amazing man. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
