Don't forget Joe Finley

I won't be able to make it up. I have to move and I managed to sprain my ankle pretty bad and can't skate right now. I wish I could have made it up, it would have been a great time. Good luck to the team.

I've finally got a little more of an insight on if I'll be able to make it up to the game. As of right now I should be able to make it up and I'm planning to make it up. However, car repairs and other situations may require me to cancel the trip. So I guess you could put me on there as a possiblity.

After getting home from the game the couple of thoughts I had are: 1) Stafford's goal was great, he just waited, waited, waited, and then put the puck in the net. 2) Brian Lee did an excellent job getting the puck to Towes in the thrid period for the goal and the best part was how he kept the puck in the zone for that play to give the odd man rush. 3) TJ Oshie is just all over the ice and works like a mad man to get the puck, he's the type of play I would say is a combination of Jeff Panzer and Brandon Bochenski. 4) Tom Bunning is great, he's going to a fantastic job as AD. I was walking around the concourse during the second intermission and he stopped to talk to me for about 5 minutes or so which I thought was awesome. Overall, for being able to watch the Sioux for the first time all year, I was very impressed with all the freshman. I just can't wait to get back to GF and watch the games against Harvard in December.

Just to let everyone know that wants to go to the New Hampshire game. I believe they have given the tickets to season ticket holders as I got a phone call telling me call back to get my tickets. I got 4 to each night but all are going to be used. I will ask when I call to actually purchase tickets to find out how many are left and let everyone know.

Just a thought and maybe if we all banded together and went to the athletic department and said we needed X number of tickets maybe they would work with us a little quicker. As I have myself and 3 other people planning on going both nights.

It appears that I'm not the only one making the trip to NH. I was wondering the same thing on the tickets but I have a friend that goes to school out there that said that the first games like that might be tough to get tickets for so I would try getting some through UND somehow, but I'm not completely sure how to do that also.

Anyone know what is going on with Les Reaney. I kind of wonder if it wouldn't be a good thing to have an older freshman on the team to possibly lead the younger players. It seemed to work with Panzer, Blake, etc. Just a thought.

I think the one thing that is missing from the team is the confidence and swagger that they had last year. They knew last year that they could score goals when they needed them (except against devner in the NCAA tourney). When I have seen them play they just don't seem to have that confidence and that is what Denver has this year. Once they get that confidence back they will be ok, I just hope that it is now and not next year. Hopefully with last weekend Anchorage will be primed for a let down cause they obviously have some confidence after last weekend. Just a couple of thoughts.

I heard the final score was 5-3 I believe. But I have no clue on who scored goals and such

I'm up for the game again after a year off. Just give me a location as I was intending on being in the cities then.

It's on ESPN2 if you get that channel.

As far as the World Jr. Team goes.....Congrats to all the players that made the team. As someone stated earlier there are always good players left off teams. However, it doesn't seem that everyone here is up in arms about the team selected. This team is what Sandelin wanted and this is what we will see defend the gold. As far as the people complaining about who got picked and who didn't they need to remember what Herb Brooks did in 1980. I'm sure people questioned him and look what happened. All I can is Go USA. Except when they play UND then it's Go Sioux

I just thought I was going nuts listening to the feed. I wish they would get that right one of thse days. Cause I just love listening to the Michigan Tech ads
