Great for Andy.
Truly one of the finest people to wear the Crimson and Gold in my nearly 30 years of following the program.
Seems like Iowa may become the DU Mid-West Alumni center. Veideman, Dingle, Thomas on the ice and Laatasch behind the bench.
I'm looking forward to catching a Chops game this winter.
