yzerman19 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 They could probably make fifty grand selling distribution rights for the Regional too...Lets see...Distributor cost is 25 cents a beer..sold for say $8 per...I'm sure that distributor would gladly pay the NCAA $2 per...Sell 25,000 beers over the weekend...NCAA makes $50k, distributor makes $143,750 (pre other expenses) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stopped at a Holiday station so the players could all pee. Nerves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he knew anything about hockey he'd know that his team gets away with loads of obstruction crap and then they blow up (Tonninato) when it gets called. They make up for it though with a unique diving ability. Sad part is they are loaded with talent, and probably have the deepest team in the country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the Bulldogs were mediocre for several years. I always considered that a series we should sweep every year. They have really developed their program, and brought in some talent. Only thing I can't figure out is why kids want to play in front of a fairly empty stadium. I just don't get how in a city the size of Duluth, with a competitive team, and a new arena, in Northern Minnesota, the arena isn't consistently packed.

Interference and holding has become such an integral part of this team's program, I doubt they know how to play straight up with the talent they have. Have to go back to Denver's back to back natty's when they played the same type of game, especially during their first. Hope the referees are up on this when the tourney begins, rather than "renewed emphasis" when it's over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly and Ciskie fits the bill of the players mentality as well. Must be in the water up there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The series at Amsoil this year, with it being #1 vs #2, was not a great crowd. It's sad. Same can be said about the Gophers series too.

Magiccitysiouxfan Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I hate when the regional is in Fargo, 3 days now of ticket and tv talk and no talk of Hockey! I am guessing most people could care less where you are sitting or when your credit card was billed. How about do we think Tucker is playing, or strengths/weaknesses of BU. Can Ohio St shock the Dogs? Go Sioux! 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
