North Iowa Outlaws.

[MR. HOCKEY]

Look out, the North Iowa Outlaws are off to a hot start this year. The coaches have done a good job in the off season of scouting and getting good players to the team. They have alot depth in the veterans and some good help from there rookies. The team has 4 good lines that have been scoring and they have solid defense and veteran goalie Robby Moss between the pipes. :-D

There's alot of hockey to play yet, but this is the best start and team they have had so far. " GO OUTLAWS " :) :cool: :-D

[PEK]

I agree, as far as predictions they will be in the top 2 for their divison. They have probably the most players that have played previously in the USHL.

[MR. HOCKEY]

This team so far keeps finding ways to win. I was looking at the NAHL scoreboard on pointstreak and they were down and had two come from behind wins on Friday and Saturday nights. It will be a big test for this team to see if they can keep there winning drive alive with about 3 weeks of games on the road.

This Shae Walters kid they picked up from the draft has payed off well for them , he is the frosting on the cake for this team. I don't know the story behind his playing time in the USHL or why he's not playing there anymore. It seems to me he is too good for the NAHL and and not good enoughf for the USHL. It seems he is caught between the two levels with his talent.

The good thing I see with this team is that all 4 lines are scoreing.

North Iowa is really playing good "D" this season so far. It is nice to see the turnaround they have made from last year.

[MR. HOCKEY]

I wonder if this team will be more of a homer team and have a harder time winning on the road. I see the Alexandria Blizzard beat them 3-2 for a road game and then they played the next night in the outlaws rink and the outlaws wasted the blizzard 8-2. Time will tell if the outlaws are going to have a hard time winning on the road. I see they have a few road games with Fargo Jets in the near future. :) " LET'S PLAY HOCKEY " :)

[MR. HOCKEY]

I see the Outlaws took down the Fargo-Jets 5 to 0 in the Jets rink. One road game win and three more to go. This was a big win and points game for the Outlaws because the Jets were only about two points behind. Let's see how many games the Outlaws can steal from the Jets on this 6 game series. :cool: " LET'S PLAY HOCKEY." :cool:

[hstar_runner]

Yeah the points are close but we have played 3 few games then Fargo and we still have 2 more wins them they do.

Go Outlaws!

[MR. HOCKEY]

Another road win for the OUTLAWS. They skunked the Fargo-Jets again Friday night 3-0. This team seems to be solid from net to net. The foundation of every good team starts with there Goalie's. This team has a "Hot Goalie " and alot of " scoring power." They are strong from net to net.

I wonder how they would do against the St. Louis and Witchata teams ? These three teams are the points leaders in the leauge as of now. :p " LET'S PLAY HOCKEY " :p

[MR. HOCKEY]

I was looking at the schedules and I see the Outlaws play the St. Louis Bandit's December 14th and 15th at the Bandit's rink. What a hockey night this should be. Both teams having a good start of the season. It should be a good test for both teams. SWEEP ? I don't think either team will be that lucky. I would say to split the points would be more like it. What a great weekend for hockey this will be. Thank god for B2TV , EH.

:cool " LET'S DROP THE PUCK " :cool:

[hstar_runner]

What's with this Moss gets to shutouts and doesn't even get player of the week for the Central? They must know that he'll be getting a few of those this year so they wanted to give it to someone else this week. :p


Go Outlaws

[MR. HOCKEY]

I hope ( Goalie ) Robby Moss gets a nice D-1 contract. I can't beleive that a USHL team did'nt pick him up in the off season last year , Thank the hockey gods that the Outlaws have him. I hope he gets to see D-1 ice time next year because he has earned it so far.

Has anyone heard if he has any D-1 schools looking at him yet. :infun:


:rolleyes: " SHOOT THE PUCK TO SCORE " :rolleyes:

[MR. HOCKEY]

WOW , The OUTLAWS continue to push forward with the wins on the road. Can they SWEEP Fargo Jets 6 games out of 6 ? The Outlaws have taken 4 of the 6 games so far. It should be a wild time for the Outlaw fans this coming weekend. It will be wild in the barn. :)

[MR. HOCKEY]

:p " SWEEP " :p " SWEEP " :p " SWEEP " :p WOW, them OUTLAWS have done it again. They took a " SIX PACK " from the fargo-jets. The Fargo-jets were a fast team with young talent and should be a contender for next year.

I remember the last few years, the Fargo-Jets were the ones kicking everyones butt. I guess all teams get there chance at rebuilding and reloading.

The OUTLAWS will have new blood to play against this coming weekend against the Owatonna Express.


" GO OUTLAWS "

[MR. HOCKEY]

OUTLAWS VS. SOUTHERN MINN EXPRESS.

The Outlaws met there match this weekend. With the express taking the rubber match of game three. The express had there goalie ( Kid from Hermantown ) playing top notch in the nets. This goalie might just be the answer the express have been looking for this year. Time will tell as there is alot of games to play yet. :confused:

The Express is a hard working team and the Outlaws have depth in talent. But you know how the old saying goes. " HARD WORK BEATS TALENT, WHEN TALENT DOESN'T WORK HARD." :mad:

The Outlaws need to get back to there own game , work harder and work as a team and use there talent. Some of the rookies ( Carlson, Politz, J. Paul ) have stepped up big time to help out. Also limit the stupid penalties and not let the other team get inside of there heads and take them off there game. " HARD WORK AND TEAM WORK = WINS. " :-D


Teams that are starting to play better and to watch out for is the Express and Springfield JR Blues.


" GO OUTLAWS " :cool: " GO OUTLAWS"

[hstar_runner]

Yeah and we will see how this team plays now with the trade of Brandon Larson. Hope that doesn't hurt their play.

[MR. HOCKEY]

Brandon Larson has not played in the line up for a few games. I think there was a trade for a goalie Matt Biggs. Biggs played for fairbanks and then for Alexandria. Biggs played for the Apple Valley high school team a few years ago. I also watched him play in the high school elite leauge. The outlaws also need to prepare for next year with the lose of goalie Robby Moss. :infun:

Good luck to Brandon. The most important thing is not where you play it's that you get ice time. Remember jr's is a developmental leauge to get you to the college level. :cool:

[MR. HOCKEY]

OUTLAWS VS. ST.LOUIS BANDITS. ( December 14th and 15th )


This should be one heck of a game. Both teams are at the top of the league. I think if both teams have scoring power then this game will be decided on who stays out of the penalty box and who has the hottest goalie.

:-D " GO OUTLAWS " :p " TEAM WORK" :) " GO OUTLAWS " :)

[hstar_runner]

What got into the Outlaws tonight? I see 6 fighting majors and the game isn't even over with. If I remember right we only had 1 fighting major the entire season up to this date. This is not the team that had been playing this season. Also it looks like Beggs and Johnson went at it tonight.

[MR. HOCKEY]

The game on Saturday night was a DISGRACE. Both teams forgot to play hockey. It looked like a boxing match. The jaw jacking turned into nothin but fights. They should of called the game off in the 3rd period. :mad:

I think all of the player's need time off for the Christmas break. :confused:

[MR. HOCKEY]

Christmas break is over and it's time to get back to work.


The OUTLAWS are getting back to work and back to good teamwork with 2 out of 3 wins against the JR Blues.


" GO OUTLAWS "



PS. " Get Well Soon " Robby Moss , we miss you. :p

[MR. HOCKEY]

The " OUTLAWS " roster is on the chopping blocks again. They sent two players to Alaska to play with the Eskimos. Good luck boy's.

Welcome back Robby Moss. I think Matt Beggs is going to give Robby a run for his money and ice time. Hey , I think it will be a plus for the team.



:cool: " GO OUTLAWS " :cool:

[hstar_runner]

I hope that Morin is going to buy Moss dinner tonight after the turnover late in the game tonight. Moss having a shutout with seconds left in the game and Morin give the puck away for a goal.

Go Outlaws

[MR. HOCKEY]

The " OUTLAW'S " better find a way to get things together soon. Losing to teams they should'nt. They better start working as a team again or they will be packing there play-off luggage and going home early. You win as a team or lose as a team. Maybe there relying on Robby Moss too much?

This weekend will be a good test for them with 3 games VS. the Express. The outlaw's are lucky to have all those points from the wins they got at the start of the season. They played as a team the first part of the season.

:infun: " OUTLAWS " Now is the time to get " HOT " for the play-offs. :infun:

[MR. HOCKEY]

HSTAR RUNNER.


:eek: I think Morin is COLOR BLIND. :eek:



:mrgreen: " GO OUTLAW'S " :mrgreen:

[MR. HOCKEY]

The OUTLAWS Spanked the Express this last weekend. Let's hope the OUTLAWS can play this good when it counts in the play-offs. The team needs to put the puck into the net more in the play-offs. :cool:

[hstar_runner]

Wow what happened tonight? They looked very slow and not very motivated for this game.

Watching the Blizzard goalie in warm-ups made me think we'd have at least 5 goals by the end of the 2nd period.

Playoffs just around the corner it maybe about time to turn it up.

[MR. HOCKEY]

The " OUTLAWS " will have there work cut out for them as they hit the road for alot of road games. They need to be hungry for the wins and work hard toward locking up the central division title. :)


:) " GO HARD " " PLAY HARD " " TEAM WORK " :)



PS. Hi Ashley. :eek:

[hstar_runner]

Congrats on the Outlaws officially making the playoffs!

Also for getting to host the 2009 Robertson Cup. That will be a great experience for everyone here.

[hstar_runner]

Anyone show up to this message board anymore?

[MR. HOCKEY]

2008 / 2009 Season.



I'm here. Let's play hockey. :eek:

[hstar_runner]

Well at least someone is around, but I think its just you and me Mr. Hockey! It would be nice if we could get people from other teams here though.

Go Outlaws!

[MR. HOCKEY]

The Outlaws are losing close games due to the fact the team is playing there 4th line way too much.

The coach this year is playing the 4th line in the regular rotation. They are getting scored on way too much.

The coach from last year played the 1st and 2nd lines way too much and burned out the two lines.

I wish they would play the normal rotation and play 1st,2nd,3rd and then put the 4th in to rest the other lines or play the 4th more when they have a lead.
