Great season, Junior. He deserved the Hobey for sure. I know more than a few UND fans that have their panties in a bunch because Zach "God" Parise didn't win it, but I think the award was given to the correct player. Should be exciting to watch Ballard win it next year...<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)">

Too bad for him that the Dogs laid an egg when it counted most.

I would love to see Ballard win it next year. Do you think he will actually stay with the gophers? Hopefully, what a great defensemen.

Personally, I believe he will return. Phoenix, from what I've heard, is a team in financial trouble (like pretty much all the NHL teams). I don't see them dishing out a big contract for a blue-chip defenseman until after the new CBA. Not that they couldn't use the help. They are a horrible team right now, but I think they are on the rise. Lots of young players, and adding Ballard to the mix only increases their potential. Ballard has stated publically numerous times that he has not tried to contact the Coyotes, nor have they contacted him. He also stated that he's waiting on them to make the first move, and he will NOT be the one to try and get the ball rolling. Adding all that up, and I think he'll be back. Knock on wood.

scheids, i read somewhere that phoenix thinks ballard can use another year of college hockey before he turns pro. if this is true in them saying this i certainly wouldn't expect them to go after him now.

Thanks for the info sounds like he will be back next year.

hubbaa, I heard the same thing. Gopher fans across the nation breathe a sigh of relief. Stranger things have happened... Again, knock on wood.

Slappy, I'm not sure if you're a Gopher fan or not, but what are your inclinations as far as Ballard is concerned? Do you think he'll be back? Regardless, I'm really looking forward to next year. The incoming class is very impressive, but they sure lost alot of talent and leadership this year. Should be an interesting season coming up. We go from my favorite time of year, the NCAA playoffs and the Stanley Cup playoffs, to the worst part of the year (Come June), 4 months without hockey. Scheids (A legend in his girlfriend's mind.)
