But there were no fish in the ice...This is a picture taken at practice of the North Dakota University Sioux ice hockey team, sometime in 1956-57. We were part of the "Big Six", the only university league in the US in those years. All of these players are (mean) Canadians, but for couple of Americans, and...a Frenchman. I had an athletic scholarship to play for them, but after two years, I resigned, as I realized that, although I had made it so far with this team, I wouldn't be able to make it into a semi-pro league, much less with the NHL (National Hockey League) and survive...PS. Find me in the picture and next time I'm in Bali, the drinks are on me![/QUOTE]standing right behind the guy front left.Send money instead

Didn't realize, but should have known, there's an entire website dedicated to how truly strange the Japs are:[url=http://www.japanisweird.com/]Weird Japanese Pictures - Japan is Weird[/url]I rest my case - they are def not from this planet!

He is Cliff "Fido" Purpur, the Coach, 1949-56. So, if I ever make it back to Bali, the Glen are on me, volonte.PS. And since the suspense must just be unbearable for you guys, I'll let you know: the French player is the second guy (with a stick), on the left of Purpur.:icon_rolleyes:
Markit
Nah! That can't be right, I think the old memory is playing tricks with you Tin. The smallest guy on the team, were you there to ride the puck around?

As I'm generous to a fault I'll revoke my bet and you can imbibe the Glen 'till your 20/20 visual acuity is restored.....or you are willing to take up the hockey stick again. I'll wave my white scarf in support....:icon_e_biggrin:
