THETRIOUXPER Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Congrtats TJ, keep up the hard work, glad you're wearing a Sioux sweater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I am impressed with the grit TJ displays he can dig in the corners and throw a check very well for his size. Very solid on his skates, I think that is a big factor why he ended up going in the first round as well as his offensive skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supertrex Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 For what it's worth (not a heck of alot), I was VERY impressed with his ability to make plays happen. That pass on Saturday night was fantastic - threaded thru traffic directly on the stick while FLYING down the ice. It was also extremely unselfish...I'm sure the scouts in attendance (I understand there were several) were also very impressed... Good to see the Sioux getting a few nods...

SIOUX99 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 TJ looked great all weekend! Set up alot of plays and worked hard every shift making things happen, keep it up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxnami Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Anyone else who saw him in the state tourney last year think he lloks stronger? His skating and strength seem much improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1Hakfan Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Thetriouper, You were totally right about TJ. I knew he had the Talent and that he would be a great player because he is so smart and he works so hard, but I didn't expect him to have this kind of impact until next year. You kept talking him up, I started thinking that you were his dad. But you were right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THETRIOUXPER Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Like I said before, not related to TJ in any way, shape or form. I'm just a fan of good solid blue collar type hockey players. I have, however followed him for the last three years, when he was an unknown commodity until he stepped on the ice at the MN state tourney three years ago. I knew he would be a great player and I'm glad we got the steal of the recruiting class and got him here. Just like St. Louis went and stole him in the NHL draft. Best of luck, and keep up the great work TJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux-cia Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 T.J. is definitely a sight to behold but I have to give kudos to our other fresheman as well. I believe we have the best freshman in the country and God (or the NHL) willing they'll be around long enough for the Fighting Sioux hockey program to benefit from the awesome talent of these fantastic hockey players.

THETRIOUXPER Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Amen to all of that, Sioux-cia. Just enjoy these guys and what they bring to the team, because some of them may not be here long. They are all hard workers, and know how to win, there's no media-darlings in the bunch, in fact I can't wait until Mr. Press conference himself rolls into the Ralph, he'll be leaving with his tai tucked between his legs, licking his wounds.

I didn't like sitting around at Peppers in Fargo with a guy who claimed to be a UND fan who said "I don't know why they recruit these guys like Toews, Oshie, Stafford, Zajac and all. They don't stay four years! I'd rather have guys that stay four years than them!" UND wants to be another MSUM, SCSU, or MTU! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux-cia Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Nice story on Oshie in the Herald today. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In high school, Oshie led the Warriors to two state titles in three years. He racked up 100 points (37 goals and 63 assists) his senior year The assists points show a lot about his character! Glad he's on our side.

HockeyMom Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 "He's a gritty player who has great skill," Hakstol said. "I think what separates him is the tenacity he plays with in all areas of the game." That includes not backing down from bigger players. Ok, that settles it. TJ is my favorite player.....

redwing77 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 There's a striking similarity between Zajac last season and Oshie this season. They both crash the net regularly and are not afraid to mix it up right in front of the net. It's what I noticed anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
