You probably remember that Eau Claire's Derrick LaPoint broke his tibia and fibula in a gruesome injury last February. If you were wondering how his rehap was progressing, we're happy to hear that it's on schedule for him to play in UND's Oct. 4 exhibition season opener v. the University of Manitoba. Schlossman had a nice article yesterday about LaPoint's return to the ice.
By the way, as happy as I am to hear that LaPoint is doing well, I hope UND loses every game this season. Except maybe when they play the gophers. Yeah, that'd be ok if they beat the gophers.
