Geoff Irwin

At the end of last night's game between UND and MSU-M Maverick player Geoff Irwin broke his carbon fiber stick slashing Darcy Zajac. In reviewing the replay WDAZ/Channel 23 did not catch the slash on film you can hear the stick being broken over Zajac on the tape. This is straight out of the federal league on slap shot and is utter bravo sierra. There is no room for that type of a reaction in ANY LEAGUE this is totally unacceptable, this wasn't a bow tie cross check this was a full swing tomahawk chop with a hockey stick. If that was the NHL it would be a minimum of two games. Lucky for Irwin the linesman Nate Freeman was able to rescue him before Zajac could exact his pound of flesh. (Goonsworld)

I just read in the paper that the player (derrick Lapoint)that broke his ankle is out for the rest of the season. It sounds like they are pretty optimistic that he'll be back next season.

I don't think that Trevor Brues did anything that cause that injury. I'm surprise he didn't get game misconduct the night before when he hit Jason Gregorie from behind.

Trevor Brues did get a suspension for a game. The suspension was for "recent in game incidents the league feels are detrimental to the game". His suspension will be against Neb-Omaha. It should be served in a game against a WCHA team.

Finally, somebody that stands up to UND and plays the way they do! UND is constantly hitting after the whistle, slashing away from the play, and always in somebody's face talking [PoorWordUsage]. Zajac is just carrying on a tradition started many years ago (Bochenski would hit his mother in the back if he ever go the chance- dirtiest player I have seen in the last 15 years!)

UND has had some goons just like any other team but Brandon Bochenski was not one of them. You may have him mix up with Mike Prpich or Radke.

UND may seem cheap to some but IMHO they are just one of the more psyhical teams in college hockey.Maybe its because they get alot of players from Canada that bring a more psyhical type of hockey than we are use to seeing.They don't hit after the whistle or slash away from the puck more than anybody else.
