Re: All Things Denver XXXVIII: On To Better Days!

DU recruit Troy Terry chosen for U18 Ivan Hlinka Tourney team. He is 1 of 5 that played on the undeafeated U17 Five Nations Tournament Team. Also on the winning Colorado Thunderbirds U16 Championship team.
This boy is a WINNER!
Troy Terry-F-Thunderbirds U16(Denver)- Terry chose to stay at the U16 level for a second straight year this year--maybe not a bad choice. The T-birds have an elite U16 team and a so-so U18 team--and he was pretty dominant at the U16 level, like you'd expect. He's smaller, but has incredible hand-eye coordination and always a dangerous scoring threat.

I'm trying to recall if Hlinka was on the Czech team that tied the Pioneers in the old barn in '69. I think so. They had another big center in those days, Vaclav Nedomansky. He was 6'1" or 2" and wound up with the Red Wings. In the Silver Medal game in Sapporo, Nedomansky had US goalie Mike Curran set up for the kill. Midway through the 3rd. US leading 3-1. But he fanned with Curran down on the ice. He whirled, got off a shot but Mike stuffed him. Curran had given up a goal in the first minute, but shut them out for 59 minutes making about 50 saves, many on his lips. On the next rush up the ice the US scored. 4-1, sted 3-2. Game over. A most pleasant memory. Man, those guys were good. And it gives you some idea of how good DU was that we could play with them. If he could, Murray would have scheduled the Canadiens.

Viz: Hope the new site is easier to maneuver on then the old one. If what I see is correct, it seems fine. Just need to buy clothes and get PioVision easily.

Who are you rooting for in the World Lax Championships? I'm pulling for Canada since it has 6 current or former players on the roster plus asst. coach Matt Brown.

I don't understand the love affair with the floating header. It is a LOT less obnoxious now than it was on the previous incarnation, but I don't get it. Do people really forget that they are at the DU website and need the constant reminder? It eats up so much of the screen! That said, it does look much nicer than that last debacle of a website.

It was easier for me to navigate on "Littlenakedchinesegirls.com" than on our website. Any improvement will result in a decline in my BP.

Why is Wade Bennett listed on the roster? Didn't he graduate last spring?
 
Re: All Things Denver XXXVIII: On To Better Days!

Joe Colborne filing for arbitration with the Flames. Qualifying offer was for $660,000. Played 60 games and had 28 points.

How about Canada vs the Iroquois Nation for the title> Then we could see 8 of the 9 past, current or future Pios in one game.:)

You gave then your credit card and SSN numbers for being a "preferred customer", right. ;) :eek: :D

Recruit News:
Dylan Gambrell is at the Islanders Development Camp--doesn't turn 18 until next month.
Blake Hillman was ranked #207 in the final CSS draft ranking--had not previously been ranked.
Both will play for Dubuque this season.

Troy Terry, who will play in the U18 Hlinka tournament, was taken in the first round of the dispersal draft(Indiana Ice) by Lincoln. When I read Chambers' tweet thought he might be going to Ann Arbor. Troy turns 17 in September and will be a junior in high school.

Geez, Germany 7-1 over the Brazils. I haven't seen that much butt kicked since the last time BC played Denver. :eek:

Scott Mayfield from Islander's prospect camp.

Scott Mayfield: "This camp I want to be more of a leader considering it’s my fourth year, but at the same time I can learn something new every day... My goal is to play here on the Island, I know I got the chance last year, but I want to be a full-time player this year."

Mayfield would have been a senior this year
Jussi and Wade Bennett are the only others missing from this senior class.

How does the Pioneers Class of 2015 "weigh in" compared to their freshman year?

Tabrum 5' 10" 185 -5 pounds
LaLeggia 5' 10" 185 +5 pounds

Larraza 6' 2" 205 +5 pounds
Doremus 6' 0" 200 +10 pounds
Jacobson 6' '2" 215 +15 pounds

Loney 6 '4" 208 +1" +23 pounds
Didier 6 '3" 220 +2 inches +40 pounds


Btw Mayfield 6' 5" 218 +1" +18 pounds
( Mayfield weighing 200 pounds as a freshman must have been when he was wearing all his hockey gear.)
 
Re: All Things Denver XXXVIII: On To Better Days!

Hi everybody.... happy summer. I am in the middle of a major domestic argument here, and I need your help. I mean, this is escalating!!!! We're pretty flippin serious about our DU hockey in this family here.... to set the record straight... tell me (and my argumentive wife - Gold Bless her) Didn't DU at one time hold a crimson and gold; or maybe it was crimson and white ..... pre-season scrimmage one year at Madness arena... atleast once since the fall of 2002? Similar to what the NHL Avs do... the roster gets split in half - they sit on opposite benches, wear contrasting colors, and the Coaches/Assistant Coaches "compete" against each other .... PLEASE someone step in here. LOL Thank you.... The one thing sweetie and I both agree on... is.... GO DU! CC Sucks
