Wisconsin Hockey: Vol. XVIII - Belief in a Better Tomorrow

Re: Wisconsin Hockey: Vol. XVIII - Belief in a Better Tomorrow

I usually bid on Priceline for 3.5* downtown zone in the $50-55 range. I almost always get a room on nonfootball weekends. There seem to be only 3 hotels that come up in that zone and star rating....the Hilton, Councourse & Govenors Club, and (comes up most often for me when I bid) the Hyatt. First two are walkable (probably a 15-20 minute walk) to the Kohl, especially if you take the slight detour route down State street and make sure you are properly hydrated by making a few reststops. The Hyatt is a couple miles down the road on Nolan and quite a stretch to walk.

This board is lame right now. What incoming freshman are you guys most looking forward to watching this season?

Chase Drake. Not because I expect him to light the world on fire, but he is from my home town. (Also not technically a freshman either).

Joseph LaBate - Can't wait for him to be a bust and show Eaves why he should stop going after Lucia's rejects! Of course you can't blame Eaves because our 4th tier players are better than anything that comes out of Wisconsin not named Kessel.

Labate, Woods (the next Dowell?), Paape (I know 0 about this kid), Navin (is he the next John Byce?), Lapic (where does he fit? what's his skill level?) Rumpel.

The d-men I'm excited for but Eaves could take any 6 of us from the crowd and turn us into a solid core in a year or two so I'm more curious of the forwards.

He is a smooth skating, heads-up defenceman...saw him play in Sioux City...he deserves a shot...

LaBate will play, Rumpel will play, McCabe as well. It's going to be interesting to see out of the others who steps up and plays a bigger role then we expect. I'm not sure who my pick is just yet.

No kidding on the lameness. Other than initiating the "little 6" nickname of that other new league, I've stayed off the hockey side of this site.

Rumpel. I'm an ex-goalie dad and I've always been fascinated with goaltending.

Brewers BAY-BEEE!

Packers and Badgers.

Hockey will have to wait.


Here's a question. What if the Brewers have a playoff game during a Badger hockey game? I hate to say it, but I may stay home...

Whoa, Gurt, I mean, it's OK to kinda like badminton, baseball, jarts, and other summertime picnic sports, but to just blurt it out like that on a hockey board? I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume your 10-year-old daughter did that.

I can tell you no NoDak would miss a Sioux game at the Ralph to watch the state's baseball team on TV, playoffs or no playoffs.

Would probably help if you guys had a pro baseball team right?

Or anything at all, for that matter.

North Dakota: Home of the Sioux, occasional floods and not much else.

I'm lukewarm on the Brewers. Once the puck drops their claw antics and everything else will take a back seat to hockey for me. Even if the crew makes the world series
