Dave Hakstol's offseason conditioning program hit a bump in the road when his #1 goaltender was punched in the head from a member of the University of North Dakota Football Team.
Reports on Sioux Sports.com have your favorite netminder and mine, Philippe Lamoureux, involved in some sort of a fracas at a Grand Forks watering hole over a hottie. Reportedly Coach Hakstol called up Dale Lennon the coach of the football team and said the boys shouldn't be fighting and Lennon said, "I'm not worried about my boys" and hung up the phone on Hak.
While DU hockey players intern during the summer at Wells Fargo, PriceWaterhouse Coopers and JP Morgan (see Danny King article below), UND players unload the Budweiser truck, wash dirty glasses, empty ashtrays and make Pina Coladas in Grand Forks.
Of course savvy WCHA fans might be asking what a 5'10" 155 lbs. goaltender is doing fighting a a football player, albeit a Division II football player, but we'll leave that for another day. For now it looks like Filly has recovered from his bout and was seen practicing with the Fighting Sioux today...

Nothing new here. Travis Roche got into a bar fight prior to his Senior year at UND and broke his hand. Must be a right of passage or something.
Funny, since Roche left after his Sophomore year and he didn't miss any games at the beginning of either of his two years at UND.
From what I gathered from my friend and the football team's athletic trainer, Philipe had been sleeping with the football player's girlfriend. Made for an interesting night at the bar that night.
