INCH on a few former Sioux players.

I found this over on INCH. Nice to see the former Fighting Sioux players doing well in the professional ranks.

• Say this about North Dakota forwards, they sure can snipe. Drew Stafford (Buffalo Sabres) and Jonathan Toews (Chicago Blackhawks) each have three shootout goals this season, tied for the best in the NHL. Ex-Sioux star Zach Parise, now with New Jersey, is one of 10 players with two tiebreaker goals.

• There's no doubt that Roberto Luongo is the number one man in the nets for the Vancouver Canucks, and that means good news for Vancouver's affiliate, the Manitoba Moose, where former first-round pick Cory Schneider (Boston College) leads the AHL with a 1.30 goals-against average. The Moose have the second best winning percentage in the league, and Schneider has a 9-1-0 record while Karl Goehring (North Dakota) is 3-2-0.
