    Especially when a road cone would probably do as well as some of our defensemen. And sadly, I'm not joking.

      I did a little more research on Gubb, and it appears my guess was correct. He's an energy forward who will hit and chip in some points, but he's no sniper. Sounds like a Gwilliam or (more likely) BUNGER! replacement.

          I was thinking more along the lines of Doriott. Although I suppose a road cone would actually be able to stay out of the penalty box...

            VanWagner's play has always been up and down; no surprise there. He started out the season pretty well, but I guess the return of his injury threw him off.

            I have never been a fan of Dorito. 17th century cannon of a shot, takes bad penalties regularly, and is a mediocre skater even considering his size.

              I'm pretty sure you could have said the exact same thing about John Scott mid way through his sophomore year. Except replace mediocre with bad.

                I never got to see John Scott play for Tech (well I don't remember him, actually) but there can be no way that Rickety Cricket turns into a John Scott. Ricky doesn't know when to take a penalty for roughing and when not to; he takes them at the worst time. He really looks lost most of the time on the ice. And I doubt he can drunk rage drive as well as Scott can.

                  Robgreen could've skated around John Scott when Scott came to Tech.

                    You'd be surprised how bad John Scott was early on at tech.

                      Yes, but John Scott follows through on post-whistle activities...Doriott just takes it far enough to get the stupid penalty then gives up...

                      If he's gonna be a John Scott, he's gotta learn how to be a true goon on the ice...

                        Its hard to be a true goon in college, since they can't fight. I know John Scott found a way, but he's a special guy. That and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have set foot on WCHA ice again if he every dropped the gloves again.

                          Did he have any other fights other then Ryan Hale?

                            I don't remember him getting in others that were too bad. He was in scuffles and such. I just remember hearing after the Hale fight that it was so bad that he was on a zero tolerance policy when it came to fighting.
