Hypothetical situation - The Boston College head coaching position becomes available in mid January. They need to fill the position very quickly. They decide Ken Pauly is the guy they want. He misses a mid week practice to fly to Boston to interview for the job. He says he'll take the job after the ...

but the NHL types have always overrated the height variable. Really. I think its underrated. I could personally care less about what pm Bouchard does in November during a 4-4 in ot. He is not built for the playoffs regardless of his skill. Have you watched the playoffs the last few years? Do the na...

I think its important to not make this a Kloos/Nanne issue. 210 other players were drafted not named Kloos so the Wild obviously felt the same way about him that the rest of the teams did. You can dissect the selection of Louie till the cows come home but Kloos isn't really part of that equation. A...

I am not trying to disparage the kid, and I understand the valid reasons why he'll be playing for the Gophers - hard worker who can skate fairly well and who'll accept his role, and who won't cost any scholarship money - but honestly, how do you look at a system that ranks Louie Nanne and Grant Bes...

BAD TEAM?? A Tony Sarsland System forces all outside shots... They are visible and easy to stop... He single-handedly cost ER the game against Anoka at Anoka and almost did the same at ER... This team was a solid team. For one to say they were bad is not only an insult to the rest of the team its j...

Cost of the program is ZERO. I think they only need to pay to get to and from. The stickler is they now must sign a conrtact vowing to pay a pretty substantial sum if they walk away. Its now almost better to get the boot than quit. The NTDP is a very prestigous invitation almost everywhere in the c...

[qA vast majority of those kids are going to play in the NHL[/quote] I'd like to see some statistics on that - seems to me the last time I checked the USNTDP roster there were a WHOLE LOT of undersized players. Nothing against undersized players, but if you look at NHL rosters they just don't have t...

The pace in a high caliber High School hockey game doesn't even compare to the USHL. Don't believe me? Go watch one in person. Doesn't even compare. Development wise, it is a no brainer. BUT, you have to take into account schooling, family situation, etc in order to make your decision. Again, for s...

Re: Too Many Mentions of An Unmentionable Topic
My only criticism of Lou's commentary during the AA championship game was the repeated references to spinal cord injuries. Please know that I wish no one would ever have to suffer from such an injury, and my heart and admiration goes out to people who live impaired lives. But with the Jablonski boy...

Ill say between 90-100, as long as he doesn't get hurt. He's got Alex Harvey on his line too, who put up over 70 pts last year and is no slouch himself. Kloos is an absolute stud, loves the game and busts his tail. He will be Mr Hockey as well. I should go to Vegas. Don't break your arm patting you...

Sad to say but hockey is a rich mans sport. It is going faster into that direction even to the point of taking middle class families out of the sport. Now with no industry it will only get worse and worse. an example up on the range where the mines supported youth hockey, built facilities for hocke...

Kloos didn't do that much for me. I didn't really care for his work ethic when he didn't have the puck, or was stopped with the puck. He didn't stick out the way Besse or Sampair did. Sometimes I felt like he disappeared. Ask any coach he's ever had and I'm sure they'd tell you his work ethic is se...

And, I guess the way he got those 47 points in 21 elite league games in the fall is suspect???? He, other than his linemate Jake Guentzel, led the league in scoring by almost a point a game. His team did win the league title. Yeah, you hate a guy who scores points like that. Are you done yet? Maybe...

Oh, yeah, blame Justin for a couple meaningless points he scored in a 19-0 blowout. First of all, the coach is the one who sent him over the boards. Second, he never even attempted a shot after the first period. Third, he has no control, after being put on the ice in that awful position, what anybod...
