WCHA 1st Round MTU @ UND - Huskies don't care Whioux we play, we have THREE Pietilas.

Re: WCHA 1st Round MTU @ UND - Huskies don't care Whioux we play, we have THREE Pieti

I think Tech has made strides this year, and I don't see them losing without a fight tonight or making it easy on UND like last night in the third period. Pearson won't accept that kind of play repeatedly. Tech has to use their emotion as fuel for a win. This team can do it, especially when you lose one of your best players. I bet the Pietalas, Khaira, Seigo, Kero, and Petan have a strong game tonight.

I know some Tech fans are ****ed about the NCHC, but I'm excited for them over the next few years at least. They have the chance to be the top of the new WCHA, along with Mankato. I'd see those two teams battling it out consistently for the league championship and not just because of the other teams leaving. I see Tech as a form of Air Force. They can play with any team for one or two nights of the week, but not consistently. That's all it takes when it gets to a one game series in the NCAAs.

OK, I conceded it was technically a legal hit, but I have to say it makes me a little sick when that result is cheered like the hospitalization itself is some kind of "moral victory" for UND (thankfully, by a small minority, but still). They have plenty of talent on their team - there should be no need to go down the road of cheering for severe injuries. The kid had a very promising future in hockey. :( That's a little sick.

Other than Dirty, I didn't see anyone say anything and if you haven't figured out that he hasn't made a serious post yet, then you've got bigger fish to fry

Tough break on a clean hit for Johnstone. I was saying yesterday that clavicle has to be the second worse bone to break (behind the tailbone). Maybe I should reassess, because a broken sternum or rib is probably worse. Yikes. He has to be in a lot of pain. I hope him the best in recovery.

I'm sorry, this is pure class... my bad.

It is, isn't it? Sure it wasn't the nicest thing to say, but neither is asking what UND players have been arrested this week.

Honestly, ignore the **** out of Dirty. He's out to get a response, that's all he has had since he joined the board. Siouxsports (if you go there) also has a lot of idiots, but a majority of fans, just like at any normal hockey game for any team, is going to feel bad for the kid, clap when he gets up and shudder when they hear about the injuries sustained. Most people have decency when it comes to injuries regardless of team, Dirty just hasn't quite matured yet.
You're making a bigger stink than what it is worth.

Just a couple drinks in and tired of his ****, regardless of any attempt to be either facetious or sarcastic. It's a semi-annual thing, I guess.

More like semi-daily.

Well I apologize then.

Dear Michigan Tech fans,

I am sorry for making a snide response to huskyfan's snide post. I should not have made light of Jacob Johnstone's injury. No one, even me the worst piece of sh^t bastard on the board, wants players to be injured. Please forgive me and be my friend.

Thank You

Kristo did more than that, and I don't think he should have had a game for it, but I thought it was a very poor showing of sportsmanship. Petan should be done for the series, IMO.
why the series? How is what he did worth 2 games(potentially)? What he did with the punching was just plain stupid but I don't see how it would be worth more than today.

Nobody wants a friend like you :p

Like I said, the series. ;)

This thread is almost as rowdy as last night's game.
 
Re: WCHA 1st Round MTU @ UND - Huskies don't care Whioux we play, we have THREE Pieti

my stomach turned when I read about Johnstone's injuries. hitting is fine, but like that? to cause injuries like that?

most of you UND fans make me sick too. cheering for hits like this to happen. cheering for a kid going to the hospital. maybe none of you realized how bad the hit was at the time, but our announcers did and called it immediately. trying watching hockey instead of hoping it descends into ritualized violence. bah. Dirty, you are probably one of the funniest posters on the board, but your comment and the following snarky apology are way out of bounds. lack of compassion. a new low for Sioux fans and that's really saying something.
 
Re: WCHA 1st Round MTU @ UND - Huskies don't care Whioux we play, we have THREE Pieti

Johnstone replaced by Hietala and Copley starting tonight.
 
Re: WCHA 1st Round MTU @ UND - Huskies don't care Whioux we play, we have THREE Pieti

one more thing. his name is DAVID Johnstone. not Brownstone, not Jacob.

You post this like your own fans don't make light of flooding, mass murder of Native Americans, and wouldn't have made a similar comment were the situation reversed...

seriously, I don't think many of us would make a comment like that.

yeah, we all joke, tease and make light of stuff. uncomfortable so, yes, sometimes. but laughing, joking, sneering at another human beings pain...a kid who is out there playing his heart out so we can be entertained...a line has been crossed and I, for one am uncomfortable with it.
