siouxhockey5 Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Sorry if this has been brought up, just wondering why TJ did not have the "A" on his jersey last night? Was it taken away, which i have a hard believing since TJ has such great character, did he ask not to wear a letter? Any info would be great. Thanks Siouxhockey5 Quote

PCM Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I thought that perhaps there was a rule limiting a team to one captain and two assistants, but I can't find anything like that in the NCAA rule book. All it says is that each team must have one captain designated by a "C" on his jersey. Michigan State's line chart shows no fewer than six assistant captains and doesn't say which player was the captain for Saturday's game. Quote

Based on International Ice Hockey Rules, each team can dress one C (Capt) and two As (Alternates vice Assistants) per hockey game. By the end of the season Oshie will likely get to wear the A just as often as the other two players. Quote
PCM Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Bryan Lerg was captain for MSU Well, somebody had to be. I was just pointing out that MSU didn't have a captain listed on its line chart. Quote

AZSIOUX Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Well, somebody had to be. I was just pointing out that MSU didn't have a captain listed on its line chart. Lerg had an A, not a C Quote
PCM Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 thats weird cause last year toews, fabian and kaip all wore a's all year long I don't think IIHF rules apply to the NCAA. As far as I can tell, the NCAA rules have no limitation on how many players can wear an "A" on one team. All they say is that one player has to be designated a captain for the purpose of discussions with officials on the ice. If that player isn't available, another player can be designated in his place. But the rules don't say anything about whether the designated player needs to be wearing an "A" or assistant captains having any official role. Quote
Diggler Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Oshie wore the "A" against Manitoba. Weird that he didn't last night. Quote

WiSioux Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Lerg had an A, not a C Lerg the goalie had an A, Lerg the forward had the C Quote
AZSIOUX Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Lerg the goalie had an A, Lerg the forward had the C wow, thats not confusing, thanks Quote
WiSioux Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 wow, thats not confusing, thanks They are brothers or cousins or something.... related somehow. Quote
redwing77 Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 They are brothers or cousins or something.... related somehow. Cousins. Quote
Diggler Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Is there any school that gets more cousins/brothers/whatever than Michigan State. They've had like 100 Millers. Quote
Slap Shot Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Is there any school that gets more cousins/brothers/whatever than Michigan State. Hellooo, UND! I swear you've had more sets of rels come through Grand Forks than a chapel in Appalaicha. (and before anyone wigs out that's not a shot at UND - imho more power to ya) Quote
siouxkid12 Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 Is there any school that gets more cousins/brothers/whatever than Michigan State. They've had like 100 Millers. well there has only been 10 Millers that are related to each other that have played for Michigan State. Quote
siouxnami Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 I completely understand. Too many Millers can be a serious problem... Quote
Diggler Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 I completely understand. Too many Millers can be a serious problem... This board has one too many already. Quote
PCM Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Brad Schlossman's blog has info on how Oshie lost his "A." For those who had questions about why T.J. Oshie didn't have an 'A' on his jersey for the Michigan State game, Hakstol said he didn't even notice it. "(Equipment manager) Pat Swanson's sewing machine must have broke or something.... there's nothing to it." Quote

AZSIOUX Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 brad reported hak said they didnt even notice TJ not having the A on his jersey, OK http://www.areavoices.com/undhockey/ Quote
Dean Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 My inside sources are indicating Oshie isn't starting off the year with the 'A' because of the Judy's/Grand Forks Police incident. That's not to say that he might not have the 'A' later in the year. Quote
