All that is because Goldie is modeled after John Mariucci.

btw, Happy, you are, in my mind at least, welcome to come here and keep the summer interesting. You have a way of making us UND fans feel smarter than we really are.

Thanks for the support. The one really good thing about college hockey offseason, compared to all the pro leagues, is all the pro fans talk about is multi million dollar contracts. We talk about murdering rodents, so much better.

A post from Happy that I think we can all agree on. ;)

It might be a one-off HOF game or perhaps the 2nd game would be played at the X?

Last year at this time I said the defense had to hold down the fort while the forwards came of age.

Now I'm thinking the forwards and goalie have to give time for the defense to come of age.

You are exactly right. May have to score 4-5 goals early on in the season until the young D adapt.

Yes, it is. They will need time to mature. But last year's team had a pretty young group of forwards and a new goalie. That's college.

I think it's fair to say that it takes longer for most defensemen to adjust to top leek D-1 play

Very true. I still think it will be a good team if they mesh well but there is no question about the learning curve for the D.
