The Houston Aeros have signed goaltender Tony Quesada to a contract for the 2006-07 season, the team announced Monday.Quesada, 23, comes off four standout seasons at the College of the Holy Cross, including a 22-6-2 (2.30 GAA) campaign in 2005-06. Quesada helped the Crusaders to arguably the biggest upset in NCAA tournament history last spring, making 35 saves in a 4-3 overtime win over the University of Minnesota.

The Crusaders became the first No. 4 seed to ever take out a top seed, and it was the school's first-ever NCAA tournament victory.

Emphasis mine. ???

Perhaps he'll one day lead the Wild to an upset Stanley Cup victory over some team from the East. ???

He has just as much offensive potential under the LeMaire system as anyone else ;)

Was checking out HC's 2006-2007 schedule and found this article on their site. I got goose bumps all over again! ;)

This is not very PC writing. But then again, they are the Crusaders. ;)

The Crusaders, intrepidly invading a foreign territory known as the NCAA Western Regionals in Grand Forks, N.D., may as well have been traveling to Little Big Horn with General George Custer leading the charge.

Pretty good to name 17 hockey players to the Atlantic All Academic Team. And a little ironic to have Quesada sign with the Houston Aeros. Maybe he will get to play for Minnesota some day, like it said he dreamed of as a boy (although it was probably UMTC). Oh well, he ended up in a much better place for his college career.

Yeah, I caught that one too. Oh where is a GrahamKracker when you want an un-PC giggle! ;)

This one had me laughing out loud! ;)

I have the MP3 HCHockeyMix on my desktop at work and had to pull it up this morning.

I wasn't fortunate enough to be at the game, but did listen to it that night. The guys who did the mix did a great job. It gives you goosebumps.

The Gophers are being sent home.

I love that line.

Thanks to PCM, I can post the following pictures of my Holy Cross jerseys side trip to the UMtc campus. The last picture of a new Holy Cross recruit is my favorite.

I don't care who you are, that stuff right there is funny!

Absolutely beautiful. That statue of Goldie looks like it could use a midnight paint job involving some purple??? :silly:??? Have we got any artists in the twin cities up for a challenge?

Posted

Did i hear an idea for a road trip in there?

I hate painting, and I am not good at it, but at a time like this maybe it would be the thought that counts and not the quality of the paint job. Goldie painted with a Holy Cross jersey, pictured in the sports section of the Red Star Tribune, would be priceless.

Ah hum...

Goldie is not that near to the Mariucci Arena. Goldie has been moved from his original location and is now in an area behind the Radisson Hotel, he sits kiddie cornor to the hotel's parking lot. He's in an area where there are no streets crossing in front or beside it. Pretty quiet and secluded. ;)

My daughter in law took us there. She's a doctorate student at UMtc. It was her suggestion to get pictures of Goldie with a Holy Cross jersey on. With that suggestion, she officially became part of the family. :lol:

What's really funny is that while it was Labor Day, there were a few students/people walking by as we took our pictures and NO ONE challenged us. Me thinks, a 2am Goldie paint job would be a cinch to pull off. ;)

I like the HC jersey on Goldy, but painting on a carved statue is no good.

:D yeah, that would be smart to do and there wouldn't be anyone out there in the world who would know who may have done the painting to ruin the statue :D:0

ruin the statue? that'd almost be ruining the paint. i don't think it's fair to have paint touch something that dirty.

I'm sure glad no one who had any designs on defacing public property was doing any planning or speculating on the subject on a easily-traced internet site. :D
