Re: For hockey fans...
I think me and my Islander buds will be right behind you on the links! Isles fans have been cursed by the hockey gods for what we did to Taveras. We have not scored a point since reaching #91 points. It’s been 120 minutes without finding the back of the net. I am not looking forward to tomorrow afternoon in Philly! Yikes!

Too funny the #91 connection! If it continues in PHI they may need to go Hanson Bros on Sunday to reignite their mojo.DD-Tech wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2019 10:52 pmI think me and my Islander buds will be right behind you on the links!

Didn't see the game, but the Isles seem to have "taken care of business" in Philly this weekend...

Deep, deep, deep inside ESPN.com is a summary of the upcoming D1 Mens Hockey Tourney.

No Gophers for you Brooksie but good representation of Minnesota nonetheless. Like the preview states, no BC, BU, ND, Wisconsin, or Michigan either. Amazing!
Love to see the Northeastern Huskies make some noise.
Games on ESPN 2/3/U/News this Fri/Sat/Sun. Hoot hoot!

Perhaps it was a YUGE mistake for the Gophers to leave the WCHA and go back to the Big Ten in puck. Had they gone to the National Collegiate Hockey Association they would have kept their traditional rivalries with SCSU, Colorado College, Denver, Duluth, W Michigan, and North Dakota. This is very important in the recruiting wars. Another thing is that the Gophers have only 5 players from out of state while SCSU and Duluth both have about 10 players or more. Sad that the team has declined as it did but the program has proven to be resilient in the past and it may soon re-emerge. Let's hope so.

The Caps have a pretty good Russian 4, among their 12 Europeans & 12 North Americans (8 USA + 4 Canada)
https://www.hockey-reference.com/teams/WSH/2019.html
You can see the Russian & European influence in their style of play. ...not much dump & chase.

Re: For hockey fans...
Reminds me of one of my favorite sports stories - some of the new Russians are taken to a Tigers baseball game. After observing the action (and obviously comparing the average effort to what a shift in hockey looks like) they ask, "they take showers after this?"Nigel wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 9:53 pm Quite a story about Detroit Red Wing hockey in the early 90's.

Re: For hockey fans...
Lakeville, MN is one of the fastest growing suburban cities in the state. It has an outstanding youth hockey program which produced SCSU player Ryan Poehling who made a great NHL debut:

Poehling scored a goal in the first, second and third periods, and then notched the game-winning goal in a shootout to give the Montreal Canadiens.
Awesome!

I heard he had a total of 8 goals last year in college. Hatty for his debut in the NHL ain’t bad!Brooklyn wrote: ↑Tue Apr 09, 2019 10:49 am Lakeville, MN is one of the fastest growing suburban cities in the state.

Re: For hockey fans...
Indeed - great start to his pro career. While at SCSU, I believe he led the team in assists or perhaps was second in that stat. Coach Larson's offensive scheme had him setting up shots for linemates. Worked well as their overall record was 30-6-3 though they missed making it to the Frozen Four:
Providence = Hockey East
Minnesota Duluth = NCHC
Denver = NCHC
Massachusetts = Hockey East
WCHA & Big Ten = 0
Both of these leagues better get their act together or they will miss out on recruiting elite talent from the scholastic and junior ranks.

Re: For hockey fans...
I’m exausted already and it’s only the first night... by far the most unproductive two months of the year for me just started.
My son and his girlfriend went to the barn last night for the game. I picked them up at the Marriott that adjoins the Nassau Coliseum parking lot and watched OT at the lobby bar. Long Island erupted last night on that OT goal. What a game!
A little after party scene from the Uniondale Marriott.... I’m shot...
