Siouxdonyms Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Fantastic news, way to go Ryan. I took alot of flak and ribbing from the trolls who frequent this site when last summer I predicted that Dunc would surpass 20 goals in a thread that discussed replacing the scoring from last seasons departures. Well Slappy, Bucky et al what do you think of the Sioux's mighty-mite now. I can relate Sioux Hab-it! After the loss last year, when everyone was saying how Oshie and Toews would stand out this year, I made sure to add Dunc's name to that list. The goals he scored throughout last year's playoff run really made him stand out in my mind as someone who would be a factor in this year's team. Quote
redwing77 Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Is it too late to predict Duncan would win the Hobey? Congrats Hobey Duncan! Quote
Spudshockey Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Way to go, Dunc!! How Panzer never won it is still mind boggling.... Quote
Goon Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Courtesy Melissa Wade now there will be two sitting in the REA lobby. Quote
melsiouxfan Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Courtesy Melissa Wade Excellent picture! Thanks for sharing and congrats to Dunc! Quote
Fighting Sioux Fan Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 I'm shocked that he won it! I certainly believe he deserved it though! I had a bad feeling because he was playing for UND and going against some good competition (I figured the ND guy would get it) that he would not win. For once a UND player gets the respect the he deserves from the Hobey panel Good job Ryan! Quote
Sioux_Hab-it Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 It has already made the Canadian sports news with a picture of Dunc at the podium. http://www.tsn.ca/ncaa/news_story/?ID=203049&hubname= Quote
IllinoiSioux Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Anyone have a link to the acceptance speach. I don't get ESPNU so couldn't watch it. Way to go Duncan, do it again next year! Quote

Sioux27 Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Congrats Ryan and very well deserved. Hum.....As it turns out those fat-sses on ESPN are completely full of sh-t!!!!! Quote

redwing77 Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Congrats Ryan and very well deserved. Hum.....As it turns out those fat-sses on ESPN are completely full of sh-t!!!!! Just Norton. I bet he cried when Curry got eliminated and then sucked up to Brown only to have him lose too. I wonder what the "order" is. WOuldn't it be hilarious if Norton's boys either didn't make it or finished 3rd of 3? Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 He's so proud he grew 2 inches! He's now 5'8".... or is that how tall the statue is? I've noticed that a few times in the past week. Must be measuring him with his skates on! Quote
toddswife Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 This video has a bit better audio! Go Dunc - I was tearing up a little bit!!! http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=2828784 Quote
dagies Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Ryan Duncan said the fan support made him proud to be a Fighting Sioux. Well, Ryan, guys like you make fans like me proud to be a fan of the Fighting Sioux. Congratulations, Ryan. Way to go. Coach Hakstol, good job pointing out that Ryan's first half of the season was not all Oshie and Toews. Quote
SiouxScore! Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Great job Ryan. You are one classy individual. I look forward to seeing that laser pinpoint shot again next year! Quote
FightingSue Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Ryan Duncan said the fan support made him proud to be a Fighting Sioux. Well, Ryan, guys like you make fans like me proud to be a fan of the Fighting Sioux. Congratulations, Ryan. Way to go. Coach Hakstol, good job pointing out that Ryan's first half of the season was not all Oshie and Toews. I agree with that. He had a great year and it couldn't have happened to a better guy. Sometimes during the year I thought he gave too much credit to Toews and Oshie and that would hurt him in the hobey vote, but I guess not. Quote
DMT Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 here you go.... http://fightingsioux.xosn.com/mediaPlayer/...T_TYPE=ONDEMAND Wow, what a humble person. I noticed he said that North Dakota is the place he wants to go to college, not the place he wants to play hockey. Quote
luapsided Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 cant wait to shake the mans hand! Your the s&!t duncan! pure class and an amazing individual! Quote
Blackheart Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 nice job Duncs...I'll keep a cold one for you over at Judy's... Quote
BigGreyAnt41 Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Well, I was hoping his winning the award would make Sportscenter's Top 10, but it didn't. Although, right at the end of the broadcast they plugged the championship game for tomorrow, and at least made mention: "North Dakota's Ryan Duncan won the Hobey Baker award, college hockey's Heisman." Better than nothing, I guess. I suppose I should have expected that some guy dunking a basketball MUST be more worthy of a top play than recognition of a player's year long accomplishments. Quote
farce poobah Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 Congratulations Ryan! Another terrific turnout of Sioux fans, and the arena echoed with chants of "Ry-an Dun-can" during TV "timeouts", along with music from the the Fighting Sioux Pep Band (thanks for making the trek guys!) He is one humble guy. Considering the outstanding competition he faced, I'm surprised and thrilled. I loved the reactions from Bob Duncan and Dave Hakstol after the announcement. PS I got to tell Mr. Kubes "nice job with the Hobey award" later on ... Quote
