The Sicatoka

Who are you kidding. Doug Woog can mangle any name, even the current guy's in Sioux jersey #3.

I'll repeat what I heard one time again: Thomas Vanek -- the Randy Moss of college hockey

Conner James will play only if he can do it with plaster on his leg. It was broken versus CC in the last weekend of the regular season.

The all-tourney goalie should have been King. The tourney MVP should have been Irmen or G. Potulny, but they both have "home town" problems in the eyes of some.

Francis, Francis, Francis, .... you make many, many assumptions in that posting and most of them Scott Sandelin's team has a major say in. To overlook them, a very good team in their own right, is to invite disaster and ridicule.

Ah, so this is why Team USA will be using the Fighting Sioux locker room throughout the tournament. It's so Blais won't go to the wrong place!

That's so true .... just ask the New Jersey Devils and their Stanley Cups.

Let me give you one crazy scenario: Minnesota gets a #1 seed by beating Duluth. Being a "big ice" team the NCAA puts them on the big ice in Colorado Springs and puts UND on NHL width ice somewhere else. Based on - all the crazy upsets last weekend - all the non-top 16 PWR teams still left - the history of the NCAA's decision processes I'd hold off predicting UND playing anywhere until I see the brackets announced by the NCAA.

WDAZ will give up this Friday afternoon line-up 2:00 General Hospital 3:00 I Love Lucy (Lucy Meets the Queen) 3:30 Andy Griffith (Three Wishes for Opie) 4:00 Judge Joe Brown 4:30 Judge Judy but Fox Sports won't give up 2:00 PM NBA Action '03-'04 2:30 PM Big 12 Showcase '03-'04 3:00 PM On Campus '03-'04 3:30 PM 54321 4:00 PM Spinks vs Mayorga at Boardwalk Hall (rerun from Sunday night) WDAZ is losing more ratings giving up GH (check the numbers, but don't ask me how GH gets ratings, not a soap fan at all) than anything Fox would give up in that slot. Why isn't Fox going for the game if WDAZ is willing to make that programming trade? Fox would get all of its coverage area, not just WDAZ's portion.

I've just realized this most amazing statistic! In games where the difference between officially recorded UND shots on goal and officially recorded opponent's saves is greater than the difference between officially recorded opponent's shots on goal and officially recorded UND goaltender saves UND's record is perfect!

This thread is almost still interesting.

There is one and only one conspiracy in these parts, and that is .... The Vast Fighting Sioux Conspiracy If you only knew ....

I believe the BC deal is this: 2 with BC here in 2003-2004 at NE/at BC in 2004-2005 2 with NE (or is it BC again?) here in 2005-2006 at BC/at NE in 2006-2007

Same time Minnesota was made ambassador to Alabama-Huntsville. You get grits. We get wings*. * Canisius is in Buffalo, NY, in case you forgot.

Did someone say ..... Hammer Time! My! My! My! MY! Schneider hits

Borrowed from this week's WCHA Final Five press release: WCHA PLAYOFF CHAMPIONSHIP ATTENDANCE HISTORY

John Gilbert -- the 2004 winner of the "PA and Dubay Excellence in Objective Journalism and Reporting Award" ....

PCM: I'll work with you on the recap rap. bigmrg74: You're just jealous that you can't lay down a track like that.

Back to the paint? Impressive. I thought you were still on the Walmart house brand of thinner. Don't you remember this bout of lyrics I had last year. See what rehab, and staying out of the paint products aisle, could do for you too?

Back on the cheap stuff again, eh PCM?

Who to cheer for in the Friday night semifinal? Easy: The Boards The Glass The Pipes The Ice Hit 'em! Hit 'em again! Go-o-o-o-o-o End Boards! Seriously, give me a good, clean game where the better team that night wins.

And my point is that it is a league contract that is given and that should at a minimum mandate live broadcast of all five at The Five no matter who's playing when.

Highest average per game price in the mens WCHA: Mariucci Arena's tenant. But you didn't answer PCM's question: What can UND or even REA do when someone else controls the rights? The fix for this has to come not from a school but from the league because it is a league contract that gives the rights to the Final Five.
