Midco on cable was not an issue (other than terrible uplink at Baxter, and that's on the host site). If you're watching NCHC.tv make sure you're blaming the right folks. That was the home (Omaha) feed.

Massey: 13 (+3) Sagarin: (not updated yet) Massey has UND with 9th toughest schedule to date and projects it to be second toughest by season end.

Two most notorious coaches against UND in the first decade of the 21st century ... One is 7-2 at Washington The other just took down 'bama

Bring on the lawyers!

Game ball to offensive line. Backs buying supper.

At 42 will we have a Romeo sighting?

Are we sure which way wind is blowing? 28 of 35 into wind?

We’ll hear this soon enough I suspect.

I have Alex and Jake and almost decent camera work. What are other folks seeing?

Down goes Michigan 3-0

And I’m doing faster replay reviews with a TiVo and a Grain Belt.

Farmer earned his five. Berg made direct contact to the head of Jamernik: earned five.

He'll have to go into a corner with Wayne Simmonds or PE Bellemare one day. They'll chat. Learning opportunity.

Minot? Whoever said "watch slope", listen to them.

Who's gonna tell him he's off by three Is (Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa)?

The Bruins do not believe they signed 14 year old Mitchell Miller today. Let's hope they are correct and that version is gone.

Does it?

What's their beef? Yeah ... I said it.

Lather, rinse, repeat?

I figured out why the green jerseys are so bad: It looks like you're wearing a white sleeved t-shirt under a green scrimmage (sleeveless) jersey.

JBD's been called up ... but will he skate to make this roster?

Skat!

I'll say it again: It's the mid-winter cold weather GMs' boondoggle escape. "I need to go on the road with the team for a couple games in January ... "

Hmmm ... I preach getter-setter-shooter ... better try to follow it 8 centering 17 and 20 27 centering 19 and 29 22 centering 9 and 18 11 centering 26 and 28 And why not a new-look defense 7 and 15 25 and 3 4 and 2 6

Favorite Hak story: Christmas time, MSP G concourse. I'm headed to gate and there sits Hak eating a sandwich at one of those iPad cafe stations. Make eye contact; nods me over. Standard how-ya-been-where-ya-goings, but very generic because he's trying to stay low and eat before a flight (back to PHI at that time) and you can see there's a group there trying to figure out who he is. He goes, I order, member of group comes over and asks who that was. Me (suspicious) tell them "a friend from college". Them: he looks like an NHL coach I think ... Me: well he is boarding to Philly ... Light bulb comes on. "And he sits and eats out here, not diamond club?" Me: now you've met Hak.
