Good morning from Denton, TX. Yes, this is the town that the (classic) movie Necessary Roughness was filmed in. While there’s not a Texas State University, there is the University of North Texas and they’re a member of Conference USA. Their school colors are very similar to the University of North Dakota.
Speaking of the UND, I did watch last night’s gritty 2-1 win over St. Lawrence University on NCHC.TV and I have to say that I was impressed with the gutty win by the UND hockey team. I will have more on that later.
Oshie Shines
On to some NHL hockey. Former UND All-Amerian T.J. Oshie had a great night against the New Jersey Devils. In fact, Oshie is off to a great start in 2017, in five games he has scored (5g-2a–7pts), he’s also a plus-three.
Check out the goals scored by Oshie. First, Oshie puts the Capitals on the board in the first period with this beauty.
Great work from @backstrom19. Good luck stopping @TJOshie77 from there.#CapsDevils on @NBCSWashington. #ALLCAPS https://t.co/ldvsF2VT5c
