I only met him once at springfest and he was wasted. I will not pass judgement on him for that though, because everyone was drunk there (including me).
I've heard stories similar to what others are telling though.
I was up at Ziggy's Bar in Warroad talking to a fairly nice looking young lady behind the bar, and she said T.J. was a prck! He probably dissed her back in the college days, maybe even H.S!
Are you from the Warroad area?
My girlfriend is from Roseau and I go up there quite a bit. Really awesome area.
And keeping on with impressions of players, well, my girlfriend met Buff once. When he brought the cup to town, she said he was a really nice guy. Her dad is also pretty good friends with Broten, they played hockey up through high school. Apparently Aaron Ness (NYI defender) isn't the greatest guy to talk to though
Never talked to Oshie or anyone that knows him, or at least anyone that mentioned him. But I know a bunch of people that met Kristo, Genoway, Blood, and a lot of other recent Sioux alumni.
I personally met Grimaldi, one of the nicest guys I've ever met.
We should just rename the Wild the Sioux after UND loses it. That'd be great. I wonder how the rest of Minnesota would like that
Oh, and to put my post on topic. Uh, if Backs is actually to be traded this season, where do you see him going and for what return?
And that's the Bottom Line! Even a Gopher fan should be able to appreciate the guy plays the game at 100 MPH, max throttle, no prisoners... I've always loved smaller guys who play big.

I'm from Roseau, so I think you made a great choice on the gf.
I know Buff and Ness very well, and each are great guys. Buff's a little lazy, but you couldn't meet a nicer guy than Ness. And Oshie is a *****. He needs
I love Oshie. And he has actually said he would like to play in the Wild.
Interesting. That could be fun.

I'm neutral between UND and U of M and my response: GTFO.
And he has actually said he would like to play in the Wild.
