    Only having seen them at CC early and DU I think the maybe more agressive and not so quick to fall back to defend and not push the play. But as I said I haven't seen that many games in person to see a difference.

    I thought in one of the recent broadcast the Dirk said John Kivisto had a hip problem that would require surgery and end his hockey career.
    i think the difference was the style of play in the defensive zone was pretty passive up to january, after that it changed to a far more aggressive system.
    I like this much better and I think it also will result in a few shorties as a turnover at the blue line can result in some odd man rushes the other way. I am concerned that we gave up several shorties at the end of the year ourselves.
    One thing I very much liked was that the team was much better about taking penalties as the season went on.
    Overall I think we went in the right direction and I support the coach totally.

      Good call. Another good option would be Wisconsin. Decisions, decisions...

          Do I have to get all of the Duluth fans mad, or can I just **** off DHG?

              Give or take a couple pounds, yeah. Probably can't say the same thing for IQ, though.

                Why limit yourself to just the WCHA fan bases?? Spread out your hate.

                    I still think Gwilliam is likely to finish that Master's and do a couple tryouts in the fall. He's 25, has a history of season-ending health problems, and isn't exactly going to be a hot free agent prospect. I doubt Dobson is going anywhere, but maybe he'll play in the CHL or IHL.

                    I'd be impressed if Bunger got a look, but I said the same thing about Alex Lord and even he had a sip of a cup of coffee in the ECHL.

                        They went with a Bee Gees tribute band instead.

                          Bullocks!!! I say the MTU Pep Band should all get Pirate Hats and plastic swords and make those Bee-Gee wannabes walk the plank, all while they the SBFITW plays "Staying Alive!"

                            That's not a very nice thing to say about the University of Minnesota Marching Band.

                            Seriously though Monster, they were not invited this year. The conference didn't want to pay for their hotel rooms and tickets, most likely. It was always merely a nice gesture on the WCHA's part to invite tSBFitW, not a guarantee.
