The Sicatoka

Shot and a goal!

Vlad the Impaler .... spearing allowed, eh?

... with NCAA team overlays.

Memo to the Fighting Sioux mens hockey team: Miami of Ohio had a physically and mentally demanding road series (at Alaska, like Fairbanks, think: ugly travel) and then an off week before playing a home series that could lock down some post season seeds and questions, against a ranked opponent, namely Michigan at home. Miami laid an egg during the first period Friday and it effectively cost them 3 of 4 series points. Demanding road series, off week, post season implications, ranked opponent, big challenge coming at home ... Sound familiar boys? See you at 7:37 pm Friday, not 8:20.

Ya'know, after all of those years playing and coaching I'd have figured Steve to be sitting around the house watching reruns of "CSI" and "Law and Order" on cable all the time.

Like I said ... However, if he really is like family to you, you're getting a second chance after a mistake too.

The tournament was co-sponsored by Vlad the Impaler and Count Dracula?

Is there any further news regarding recruits? Sixteen sounds low. Mussman was talking more in the 18-19 range when I last heard him speak.

Can you believe CSTV is silly enough to not be running game two of this series?

Trotter signed a pro contract. Ev-v-v-verybody at DU is sooooo happy for him. End of story.

After seeing the FSN-RM crew talk about Trotter being gone from DU in the pre-game, and the statements by The Gwoz, I wished I'd invested in air sickness bags.

Boy did Tom May lay a lick on Peltier in the first last night: open ice, clean, and Peltier's head (OK, just helmet) came flying off. I'm sure we'll hear May is a goon now ...

Most likely ... yes. Now the other question you have to ask is .... will their parents be ....

Now why in the world would a Sioux fan bowl something like that at a Bison fan? What's done is done. Move along.

How about four games (plus 10 minutes of overtime!), 16 total goals. And half of those goals scored in just one game (CC 5, SCSU 3). Blech! http://board.uscho.com/showthread.php?t=75649

Who was supposed to call Miami and tell them they had a game Friday?

That, ... that, ... that'd not be good.

Or did it save DU and The Gwoz from having to face the media in a far less positive situation and answer some sticky, uncomfortable questions. Some folks might be cynical and call that approach the coward's way out.

I've got all three (Atlantic, Central, Pacific). I should've stopped at saying I saw it's on one of them.

An update (because I know you all were worried about me): - Fox College Sports Pacific is carrying Minnesota at DU tonight. That means .... .... is back on! And I believe there are other replay games on after that even.

Assuming that speculation is correct, the school is barred from saying anything by FERPA. FERPA is to education information what HIPAA is to medical information.

I thought it was yesterday (Feb 7). The date sticks because is was a two days after a Board of Ed meeting to offer the UND president job (Feb 5).

One more for the "reasons" list .... 11. We'd all get cool nicknames. But there's a problem. This indictment tends to contradict ....

Wasn't that post clear? The player can only participate in 20% of team's scheduled games. None of the games the player participates in can be in the second half of the schedule (for example, after game 6 of a 12 game schedule). Ryan Hale blew up a shoulder in Game 8 and there were 40+ games planned on the schedule (counting league tournament): automatic extra eligibility season granted. The Brandon Strouth blew up a knee in game 2 of an 11 game schedule and it was automatic. Michael Forney last participated in Game 17 (Dec 29, 2007) v. UNH. There are 35 games (exhibitions don't count) on the schedule. Gee, he hasn't played in any games in the second half so far. Interesting.

No, no, NO. He's cutting a deal with the Obama campaign to be on the ticket as VP. "Barack and Brock" --> Obama/Trotter '08 (to the tune of the old Dr. Pepper jungle) Obama/Trotter, Obama/Trotter, Obama/Trotter, Obama/Trotter, wouldn't you like Obama/Trotter too?
