Two loves in my life: Fighting Sioux Hockey and Metal.
I'm a '95 graduate of Colorado College. I bleed green and black so my 2nd favorite team after the Sioux is Colorado College.
I also play guitar. I love anything loud with lot's of distortion-Pantera, George Lynch, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Metallica, Megadeth, Disturbed, etc. As my username indicates, I'm a huge fan of the Boston-area band Godsmack. Devil Horns to the Sky!
To me, it would be awfully frustrating being a Mavericks fan right now. Eight seasons and only two tournament appearances and I don’t believe they’ve advanced to St. Paul in the years they’ve had home ice. They seem to get decent talent each year but don’t live up to expectations (sounds like us the previous few years).
I hope the team has long since flushed the sweep they incurred two seasons ago at Robson. Fortunately, most of the current players weren’t there for that. But I remember it.
Some encouraging news for CC, Drew Montgomery is dressed tonight for the first time since leaving the Friday game early against Providence. He took a cheap shot to the head by a Friars player.
What was last night’s excuse? Lol
Full disclosure: CC isn’t exactly crushing it in the win column so I suppose there’s an element of that right now in terms of compelling drama for a RedHawks fan to go.
God, that was so classic! I still remember the Gwoz standing on the dasher, screaming at the refs for missing that epic cup shot at the face off dot right in front of the DU bench. That’s what I call a little street justice.
The ones that got lost at sea. Several weeks ago, when they traveled to CC, the Tigers wore their road blacks while Omaha wore their home whites. Apparently, the Mavericks’ new black road sweaters were delayed, stuck on a ship somewhere.
If anyone’s planning on getting tickets for the UND series at CC, you may want to consider looking now. There is no GA at Robson Arena so you have to buy tickets resale on Ticketmaster from season ticket holders. Currently, it looks like you can get standing room only for about $49 a game and seats as low as about $50 and upwards of $150+, depending on the location. The AD announced at the season ticket holder fan fest in September that she doesn’t want to see a bunch of North Dakota fans taking over Robson so let’s do what we can to fill the barn with as much green as possible!
