Re: All Things Denver, XXVIII

I learned a lot from The Rt. Hon. Sir Joseph Porter, K. C. B. who dispensed some interesting career advice in Act I:

"Now landsmen all, whoever you may be,
If you want to rise to the top of the tree,
If your soul isn't fettered to an office stool,
Be careful to be guided by this golden rule —
Stick close to your desks and never go to sea,
And you all may be rulers of the Queen's Navy!"

"And when the breezes blow,
I generally go below,
And seek the seclusion that a cabin grants"

Re: All Things Denver, XXVIII

aren't BC forwards supposed to be small? Ryder should have a fun weekend...

he'll likely swing and miss as they slide under him

From DU Game Notes

OUT OF ACTION
Senior forward Dustin Jackson (moneucleosis) is out this weekend, while Nick Shore (wrist) and William Wrenn (hamstring) are questionable. Jackson and Wrenn missed last weekend’s series at Vermont. Shore played the season opener against the Catamounts on Oct. 8, but didn’t play on Oct. 9.

Goalie Adam Murray talked about his new mask in this video that Mike Chambers had in his blog in the Denver Post.

Re: All Things Denver, XXVIII

Greetings my fellow Pioneer fan. My hiatus is just about over! Things have been busy and strange this year, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm hoping to resume attending the home Pioneer games beginning with the game the evening of November 13. In the mean time, go Pioneers!

Welcome back...

No doubt its DU's best recruiting class ever. Congrats to the coaches and players that made it happen.

Its been a long climb up the recruiting rankings.

2000 was a breakout year for recruiting (James, Caldwell, Berkhoel, Dora, Keith, Laatsch, Bull and others)

2003 landing Matt Carle was a significant milestone.

2004 was DU's best class in recent times Thomas, Stastny, May, Mannino, Paukovich & Dingle

2007 Landing Bozak who in no time became the best player in college hockey

2008 Landing Colborne & Wiercioch and keeping them away from Major Junior teams that were hot on the trail.

In case you missed it, Matt(hew) Glasser is living the dream along with Kevin Ulanski, playing in the CHL in Loveland:

In other DU hockey alumni news, Gabe Gauthier and Mark Rycroft will be in the radio booth this weekend as color men along with play by play man with Jay Stickney. Rycroft will do color for most home games this year. Not sure of Gauthier is a one-shot deal or not.

No wonder why Bennett was held off the score sheet against Vermont, he was pulling double duty as a forward and goalie.

Re: All Things Denver, XXVIII

DU's newest recruit Joey Laleggia had two more big games on Tues. & Wed.

Joey LaLeggia continued his hot play with a goal and an assist much to the pleasure of the crowd of 1,342 fans who pass through the turnstiles on Wednesday. LaLeggia leads the Vees with seven goals, fifteen assists, and 22 points in 15 games.

The Penticton Vees have the best record in the BCHL.

Somebody has a goalie named Bennett

Re: All Things Denver, XXVIII

Denver Post is now reporting that Denver's Nick Shore has a broken wrist and likely won't play this weekend.

He was the third line center, so this is going to force the Pioneers into some line shifting...

Hope all is well 14ers! I think it has been a strange year all around. I'll be at the game tomorrow night! Look forward to seeing all of you!!!

As for the Pios, encouraging start to the season. Hopefully Murray can be consistent this season and the Pioneers can fill the holes left by Rhett and Tyler. 3 points on a weekend in a hostile environment is nothing to scoff at. Well done Pios!

Big test this weekend, I think it will be a split.

LET'S GO DENVER!!!
