Which Ram team is the best?
I'll keep it in my life time, but which title team do you consider the best from Roseau.... 90', 99', or 07'? Build a starting 6 from those 3 teams. Who would be your starting forwards, defenseman, and goaltender?
I'm bored and waiting for hockey season. Have fun with it if you can.

Re: Which Ram team is the best?
How about the 1978 team with a line of Neil Broten, Aaron Broten and Butsy Erickson? These guys were INCREDIBLE as were the rest of this team!ACTUALFORMERPLAYER wrote:It's completely official, you have never actually watched a hockey game.BERG RENOLZ wrote:I'll start, I'll take the 99 team.BERG RENOLZ wrote:I'll keep it in my life time, but which title team do you consider the best from Roseau.... 90', 99', or 07'?

They didn't win a state title. Good line though.Hockeyguy_27 wrote:How about the 1978 team with a line of Neil Broten, Aaron Broten and Butsy Erickson?

Doesn't mean they weren't the best. A lot of things need to come together to win a State Tournament.BERG RENOLZ wrote:They didn't win a state title.

Re: Which Ram team is the best?
No, Derrick was a defensemen on the '99 State Championship team and went on to play at UND briefly. He will be playing with Pensecola in the ECHL with another Former Ram Luke Erickson. Derrick's cousin Dustin might be the one that you are thinking about and he did leave to play in WHL and is currently in the Chicago Blackhawks system and has seen ice time with the big club over the past couple of seasons.SB24 wrote:Wasn't Derrick Byfuglien the one that left before playing high school?BERG RENOLZ wrote:I'll start, I'll take the 99 team.BERG RENOLZ wrote:I'll keep it in my life time, but which title team do you consider the best from Roseau.... 90', 99', or 07'?

Re: Which Ram team is the best?
That's correct. Dustin never played high school hockey in Roseau. His abilities on the ice didn't translate to the classroom. He's a gigantic kid who is very skilled on the ice. Derrick graduated from RHS and won a championship in 99'. He was up for Mr. Hockey that year. Played 1 year for the Ice Sharks, then went to UND. He didn't play much his freshman year, so he decided to quit and go play pro, which didn't work out too well for him. After a couple year hiatus he decided to get back into hockey a couple years ago. Now playing in Florida like Ram hockey said.Ram Hockey wrote:No, Derrick was a defensemen on the '99 State Championship team and went on to play at UND briefly.

Re: Which Ram team is the best?
There's no way you could argue against the Broten line being the best in the history of RHS hockey. The questions was, what's the best title team? The Broten brothers tried to do it, but came up short. Runner up to Edina? I believe that's correct, too lazy to look it up.breakout wrote:Doesn't mean they weren't the best.

Best Ram Team
That line of the Brotens and Butsy was incredible. Neal had 95pts., Aaron had 86 and Butsy 68. After the state tourney Neal had 120, Aaron 102 and Butsy couldn't have been far behind. This was the '78 team. They didn't win it, but man, they were awesome. When the third leading scorer has 68 points playing the schedule they do, it's a pretty explosive bunch.

Where's Brett Pearson? Coaching i bet! Zoeller grew up in Lindstrom, MN but now i'm just being nitpicky. Goaltending would be a good fit for him since he can't skate. Brett & Ricky could make up for that though with their coaching and skating abilities.salol 82 wrote:These guys didn't win any state championships, but with some better coaching they would have. Front line Rickey Brunell centering Corey Howe and Tracey "BOBCAT" Ostby.
On the blue line Bruce "the blurr" Baumgartner and Billy Mcdonald.
In net Brad Zoeller.
FYI...if you want to hear Z broadcasting Ram games this winter, you'll have to tune your radio to AM. Classic Rock 1410 KRWB. Apparently it's the Best Ram Sports Show Period! Nice ring to that!

Funny thing is of the actual former players you mentioned at least one of those guys actually started for the Rams in the State tourney and one of those guys played at UND. Switch Ricky, Bobcat and Z for Duck, Gillie and Meghan G and toss in a couple of other lines of mediocre huffers and you'd have a pretty good old timers team.salol 82 wrote:These guys didn't win any state championships, but with some better coaching they would have.

Re: Which Ram team is the best?
The question is "Which Ram team is the best". I don't know if winning a title defines a team as best.............maybe it does. That was a fun team to watch in the State Tournament.BERG RENOLZ wrote:There's no way you could argue against the Broten line being the best in the history of RHS hockey.

Re: Which Ram team is the best?
I bet. My mom graduated with Neal and Butsy, so i was just a nut in the old mans sack. I'm guessing it was fun to watch though.

And, the question is "Which title team is the best".
Back to topic
Trying to get back on topic.
This years team, IF they win the title again, would have to go down as one of the best! They won in 2007 on an unexpected year, but this year, many are thinking repeat. If that can happen, my vote would be for the 2007 and 2008 teams.

Best Ram Team
Duck and Billy are cousins, so they maybe won't get along on the same line. They probably wouldn't pass to each other.

Wow, an actual siting of Brad Zoeller, special. I didn't think he was doing much for Warrior games, since Roseau and Warraod usually play their games on the same nights. The same guys are doing Warrior games. Z and Cat on 1410 doing Ram games. Bobcat was dominant at UND!salol 82 wrote:Hey Berg I didn't know bobcat went to UND. I saw the Z-man last night he is broadcasting Ram sports on K"AA"RWB 1410 and warrior sports on K"A"Q 92.

Obviously you don't think much...because the reason he was doing a Warroad broadcast was it was at RHS where the "AA" Ewes got swept in three by the "AA" Amazons for the second time this season. Needless to say I have a tough time with "Lady Rams" and "Lady Warriors" .BERG RENOLZ wrote:Wow, an actual siting of Brad Zoeller, special.

Obviously you're a douche bag because you're talking about volleyball. This is a hockey forum! He won't be doing Warroad hockey games, who gives a sh*t about a Rams vs. Warriors volleyball game. good luck on the douching tonight.Undercover Hockey Lover wrote:Obviously you don't think much...because the reason he was doing a Warroad broadcast was it was at RHS where the "AA" Ewes got swept in three by the "AA" Amazons for the second time this season.
