    I think that had more to do with having green uniforms...
    At the outset, we could hang with the dude...

      They Gophers were scared of them because Idalski's teams were dirty, two players in particular, and he didn't do anything about it, so the Gophers might have feared getting injured unnecessarily. The Gophers were not scared about the possibility of losing to them. He was not a class act by any means.

        I'll share an Idalski anecdote. The week of Amanda Kessel's return. The word was out that she was practicing with the team, but it hadn't been announced that she was playing yet. Idalski was being interviewed by the UND/Grand Forks press early week about the upcoming series against the Gophers. He was asked about the possibility of Kessel returning and he said that he hoped she wouldn't play because he didn't want responsibility if she got hurt. I believe he also mentioned something about if she was his daughter he would recommend against her playing again.

        Right after this interview it was announced she was going to play that week. And the first two shifts of the game they hit the s**t out of her. She was literally flying through the air. I was scared to death for her.

        She weathered the storm and got her legs under her but those moments kind of freaked me out.

          This weeks top ten inspiration (credit to ARM) is "You might be a WCH contender if..."

          1. Wisconsin - You can avoid running into ex-North Dakota players
          2. Clarkson - For no other reason than you're the defending champions (and you stash players at your sister campus in Omaha).
          3. BC - You send a van to drive around the mid-west broadcasting subliminal messages of fear for ex-North Dakota players and relaxing messages about having faith in senior goaltenders.
          4. Colgate - You become more known for what you do on the ice rather than the "number 1 recommended by Dentists".
          5. Cornell - You actually play a game and not be the theoretical good team on paper.
          6. Minnesota - You play a goaltender not named after an American Actress who is also a singer and a children's book auther.
          7. St Lawrence - You can prove that last year was the rule and not the exception.
          8. UMD - You send DVDs of Bernadette Peters movies to the sister campus which, when played backwards, show highlights of BU and Wisconsin games from last year (and you have an ex-North Dakota player on your roster).
          9. Ohio State - You do, in fact, have the WCHA player of the year and you also have an ex-North Dakota player on your roster.
          10. Providence - You can keep up scoring goals in bunches as you will need that to hang in there against the top of you're league.
          At the outset, we could hang with the dude...
