The DM fans never chanted "overrated" and i bet that if SCC would have won they would have chanted "seasons over" too, its just what high school fan sections do. The DM fans in general are not arrogant and classless, there just seem to be a few on this forum.

DmnHawk5 is right...most student fans do the "season's over" chant. SCC did the same thing to every team they beat along the way in '03-'04. They didn't do it this year after they beat Denfeld, but I'm not sure about Proctor. It's not that big of a deal, it's very common.

DM folks' that I've talked to are very respectable people. mj79 is not the brightest bulb on the tree but each school has on of those guys. DmnHawk knows this is fact as well. Can't generalize an entire people for the words and actions of a few.

I know for a fact the SCC fans wouldn't have chanted "season's over" because their AD would rip them a new one. They have already gotten in trouble this year.

Besides my lil laugh about the goalie who made a little scene after connollys shot .. I said nothing bad about SCC .. If anything it was towards the SCC fans on this board who said marshall wouldnt stand a chance in the physical game ...

As far as SCC goes , i was pretty impressed, there goalie made some, actually many impressive saves and there team was very good, I was watchin # 9 and 21 alot cuz the ppl on the board said they were the big hitters.. So why attack me when i didnt even attack the team, and excuse me for being a lil " cocky " or whatever , didnt mean it to come out that way, but when ppl on here say that Team A is gonna work over team B in a certain department and take the game and doesnt, it deserves a lil cockyness, not to scc, the ppl on this forum..

What ever scc guy dropped bill hurley gets some bonus points to , thats not an easy thing to do, and i will say SCC is probably the biggest team ive seen marshall play all year

CONGRATS to Duluth Marshall on another section championship and State Class A berth!!

I know many of these players, and I just have to say that they are a fine group of individuals. They are not "rent-a-players", bluegoose, they are a group of kids mostly from or around Duluth working towards a goal. It's not like these boys come from Michigan or California. Grow up.

As a quick side note - how about that showing from Bill Hurley? I know every DM fan was jumping out of their seats when he got the puck. And what more can I say about Bob Gutsch?? What a performance.

Congratulations to SCC for a fine season! Hess stood on his head at times there, and kept them in the game, stopping a flurry of something like 6 shots in thirty seconds, and a few breakaways. Great senior class. pun intended.

See you at the XCEL CENTER

edit: also, mj is the man

Hey Bluegoose you know what else is totally classless? your beloved SCC student section turning around when they were announcing the Marshall lineup? Goes both ways buddy.

First of all every fan section is going to have some classless acts or chants, its just kind of the way it goes. This can even make for an even better atmosphere if the fan sections are jawing back and forth. However, what's important is long as the players show class. In my opinion, one of the most classless acts I have ever seen was when the Marshall players didn't go shake the hands of the Cathedral player's as they recieved their medals. The Cathedral player's even in defeat went up to shake every Marshall player's hand. I don't know maybe the Marshall players just forgot but either way pretty classless.... Anyways good luck to Marshall and may they represent section 2A and Class A Hockey very well at the X!

However, there's nothing more classless than an arrogant winner, which is the case with SOME of the DM faithful. While we're on it though, how about the class shown with having DM's big lug out there in the last minute of the game trying to throw his weight around against SCC's 4th line. Nice move.

just keeping the scoring lines safe... In case u didnt notice it was gettin a lil choppy at the end and scc was takin a few shots as well pal

BlueGoose5 · Post by **BlueGoose5** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 2:17 pm

mj, you would know about "takin a few shots" since you so freely dish them out to a defeated opponet. You are the epitomy of poor class and should be an embarrassment to the DM program. You'll get no respect from this end.

Blue&Gold · Post by **Blue&Gold** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 2:59 pm

SCC was playing their 4th line, and any senior that they could just so they could say the played in this game.

The players were fine, the fans were pretty good, but there are always a few, from both sides.

MJ79 is "one of those" and I for one would just "let it go". DM played their game and won, they showed up ready. SCC had a great season, and lost the game. Let's move on and see how things shake out down and the "X". I for one will be rooting for DM to take it all!

Oh, and mj, you do not want to go into a battle of wits or hockey knowledge with George, he eats guys like you for snack time..

DmnHawk5 · Post by **DmnHawk5** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 3:09 pm

Bluegoose you are taking this a little far. There was a lot of excitment on the DM side after the game and i know if the players were thinking about it they would have gone over to shake hands with Cathedral, the players did respect them alot as an opponent (and yes i know your not the one who mentioned that). Give them a break for being very excited for making it to state after a tough game. And you are really lumping all DM fans together cause of dumb things a very very few say on this forum, lighten up a bit. I know im a bit biased here, but DM is a pretty classy program and about 99% of the fans are not arrogant, they just love supporting their team and school. And also remember one thing about big Bill Hurley playing against their 4th line at the end of the game....he played 4th line most of the year so that should be a big deal.

BlueGoose5 · Post by **BlueGoose5** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 3:25 pm

DMHawk, I respect your opinion and understand what you're saying. I didn't intend to lump all DM fans together, but I'm otherwise sticking by my statements because of what I've read here on these posts and witnessed at the game.

One point, though. I know Hurley's a 4th liner and I have no problem with him being out there at the end, but there was no need for him to have been looking to take hits rather than go for the puck. Trust me, no player from SCC's 4th line was looking to play rough or dirty at that point. If anything, those guys simply wanted a chance to go for the puck, and that's the truth as it was their first and only shift on the ice in a big game.

I intended for my initial statements yesterday to be my last, but then mj and some others jumped in prompting my reaction. I will put an end to it now however. There are lessons to be learned from all this. Respect has to go both ways and that didn't happen at the end and following this game.

mj79 · Post by **mj79** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 3:32 pm

geez ppl . how many time do you2 or 3 need to bring up this crap again??? WHAT get over it I already explained i didnt attack the team it was the posters, and one comment about the goalie being cocky, Now my name is in everyother post as " that guy " or mr no class" yadda yadda...

if your all that stupid to go back a few pages and RE READ what I wrote ud see already went over this//... damn

Its unfortunate if there's hard feelings here. I will say that the DM team is comprised of very nice guys. I don't think they would mean to be a bad sport. And for student sections; I've seen and heard some pretty crude things. If looked for, you can see it at most games. As for Hurley, I would like to hear what people think about his skills. Do they think that he is more than a fourth liner? I can tell you that he might have played 10 games all year. His point production was very limited and most coming when he had second line appearances. What I'm thinking is that he is a fourth line material. I hear people getting wrapped up in the size thing, as if it makes a better player.

George Blanda · Post by **George Blanda** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 3:40 pm

I think Hurley moves really well for his size. That being said, he doesn't move that well compared to players of average size. He's an alright hockey player but if he is as fast for his size running as he is skating, he'd be a nasty D-end or D-tackle in football.

I know the DM players are class acts. They deserved the win and deserve the chance to play for the state title. Congrats again, boys.

As for mj79, please never comment toward an SCC poster again. You have never and will never gain thier respect, and you don't deserve it.

And that is my last comment on this topic.

Hey bluegoose whats next? you gunna whine about how marshall players didn't go over and hug the SCC players after the game?

BlueGoose5 · Post by **BlueGoose5** » Mon Mar 05, 2007 5:02 pm

Nope, someone else already brought up that point. You're a little late to the scene minny. The end.

Ohh Goosie's bringing out the cheap shots now

Go Get Them DM!!

Yes the goalie from bantams should be decent. But I agree, will not be a hess. I don't see any superstars coming up, but who knows, players can improve alot as individuals or as a team. Is there any word if Schmidt is sticking around for another year?

Great call, Blanda. Hurley actually is being looked at by a few colleges, I know St. Thomas is very interested in having him. Hopefully that works out!

Schmidt's will play it close to the vest until they have to tell someone. Not a bad thing at all. He will be able to play in the USHL or in Ann Arbor if he wants to. Keep in mind, the kid is one heck of a baseball player too. It wouldn't surprise me if he gets looks for that sport too.
