DU does not approve of coaches actions.


Apparently Denver University was not impressed or amused with the George "the Dasher Troll" Gwozdecky's antics this past weekend in Grand Forks, ND.
DENVER – The University of Denver does not condone the actions of head hockey coach George Gwozdecky at the 9:30 mark of the second period during the Pioneers’ 2-2 overtime tie against North Dakota on Saturday, Jan. 24 at Ralph Engelstad Arena.

Gwozdecky received a two-minute unsportsmanlike misconduct and 10-minute game misconduct penalty because of his actions.

“We have discussed the incident with George, and he understands that his behavior was unacceptable,” DU Senior Associate Director of Athletics Ron Grahame said. “George’s action were very much out of character. We respect the integrity of not only the University of Denver, but the Western Collegiate Hockey Association as well.”

  1. DU wrote the little letter so the WCHA didn't suspend him. quid pro quo.

  2. Looks like it could be a smart move by the University. What I am thinking is that Anderson got a talking to.
