siouxperstar Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Neighbors who attended the Sioux-Per Gala last Sat., heard Drew's announcement (& saw a poster congratulating him) during an interview there that he's been invited to partake in the World Championships in Latvia May 5-21 as part of Team USA. Mike Eaves will be the coach--Eaves coached Drew on the Gold Medal team that won the 2004 World Jr.'s as you may recall---bring back the gold Drew!!

Diggler Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I wouldn't take him missing finals as meaning anything as I would assume he plans on taking them before he leaves. Why else would he still be in school right now? He's not going to go to class all the way until finals week and then quit. If he was going to quit, he'd have already.

I could see him taking finals early and ace-ing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 It gets better. It's no longer "invited to try" but "named to roster"! http://www.fightingsioux.com/sports/mhocke...RELEASE_ID=4859 And get this! Of the first 15 named to the 23 man USA roster Drew is the only guy not on an NHL team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redneksioux Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Does anyone know if any of these games will be televised? Or maybe someone has some knowledge on the best way to follow these games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprig Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Does anyone know if any of these games will be televised? Or maybe someone has some knowledge on the best way to follow these games? Best place to find info is on http://www.usahockey.com. I believe you can access an audio stream of the US games there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDintheNHL Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I had a small class with Drew last fall. As far as his classes are concerned, the guy is smart. He knows his stuff. There is no way he would not take them early. And he will still do them very well. Drew is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. I am glad that he hasnt gone to the NHL yet, as he would be a great cadidate for Captain next year. Congrats Drew, on your naming to the team. And hopefully you will be back next year. Thanks for the chance to meet and talk with such a standup guy. It will be nice to see ya on the ice in the future and say: "I had class with that guy, and have talked with him. He deserves to be out there as much as anyone else does" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux-cia Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I believe that an earlier post said Drew of the only one of the first 15 picked that wasn't on an NHL team> Kessel must have been picked later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
