AZSIOUX

ok,6 points behind the goofs.tied with the dogz..have 2 more wcha games than both of these teams left.the gofs really let us hang around for that 4th spot by only getting 1 point this weekend.they could have buried the sioux..the gofs have 3 of 4 games left on the road.2 at m-tech and home and home with st cloud.. maybe thats a good thing for them since they have been so bad at home.. the dogz are at denver and have wisconsin at home. very tough.we also have a tough run, they are not top teams we are playing on the road but they are on the road! oh yeah, we play wisconin at home, pretty tough as well..this should be fun to follow and hope the sioux can make a run at th 4th spot

back to being tied for 10th as of early sunday morning here. just got home and checked the pwr..nice to see the gofs tie and only get 1 point this weekend....tied with BU and right behind harvard and ohio state for a 2 seed in the tourney...this not playing thing is working ok time to get some well needed sleep!!

i don't know if deserving getting in the nc$$'a means much if they get awarded a birth in the tourney. who cares as long as we get in. i do understand though what you guys are stating. we have not exactly tore it up this year..the crazy thing is yes, we are only a few games above .500. but that does qualify the sioux if the season ended now as a 3 seed of all things due to the tough schedule the sioux played so far.they are benefiting a lot by having minn, cc, denver and wisc in the top 5 or 10 for most of the season...#11 alone in the pairwise. is it great? hell no but thats how it falls when breaking down the pairwise. obviously the season is not over and they still have work to be done. they do have tough games left like MAFIAMAN has stated so they better come out flying. road games are always tough no matter what but if we can get that 4th seed into the playoffs with all of these upsets happening and have umd play minn in the 1st round of wcha playoffs then things can get very interesting.next make a mini run into the ncaa's and anything can happen as we noticed last year with denver. murray will spark them HOPEFULLY and then we stop hitting the damn pipes and start lighting the lamp. THATS MY RANT..GO SIOUX

59 shots for the gofs and the alaska goalie saves 57...holy sh!& very nice to check the scores and see the goofs loose, wisc and cc loose..crazy night in the wcha..... we are also sitting at #11 in the pairwise now so you don't play and move up..very nice...

this site is great, poi was a great info site as well for the college hockey fan. thanks for this site . i really appreciate it as a college hockey fan and SIOUX FAN went to gopherpucklive.com as well and noticed a warning that the site may be folding as well if they do not fix some things..very tough to do if you are doing it on your own or with a couple of partners, time and effort wise... http://www.gopherpucklive.com/

I could care less if a player stays for 2 years or 4 years..I don't know if I would consider it "laughable" for parise to have a lot of votes..At least he was a 2 way player that skated out every single shift during those 2 years!Either way works or me..

i just picked 10 players that thought of from my head. no reason i skipped 10 years but write ins are good also...kidd was fun to watch as well..

those guys were great to watch. i bet i could have put 50 players on the list and they all would have recieved votes! great tradition....

wed feb 9th AHL.... hershey 4 lowell 3...ryan bayda 1 goal (lowl) and jeff ulmer 1 assist (hersh) albany 3 springfield 1. zach parise (alb) 1 shorthanded goal, 1 assist. syracuse 4 san antonio 1..jeff panzer (syr)1 goal. karl goehring(syr) gets the win stopping 24 of 25 shots

1. I agree but thats how the numbers fall, i see them ending up with a 2 seed when the season ends. 2. same thing, the numbers work with you when you play top 10 teams on a week by week basis. I see the sioux ending up with a 3 seed unless they go on a sweep party in the last 3 series and play well in the final 5 and then they may be able to move up to a 2 seed. YES I AM A OPTIMIST noticed today that BC fell to a tie in the 4th spot in the pairwise after getting beat by BU in the beanpot

i'm all for ending up in MINNEAPOLIS for the 1st 2 rounds..bring it on..

sorry diggler, should have added schneider in the poll..my bad...

I thought about roche and blake and greene and many many others. wish i could have added more players but they only allowed me 10 choices... i picked hrkac but my favorite player is jake brandt... just like his style...i was a goalie when I was a kid so thats the reason..belfour and goehring as well, i loved watching the eagle even though he was not at UND to long...

Just bored with the week off so just curious out of these 10 players who are the past favorites. Started from 1987 up to last season. You can only have 10 choices so I had to leave out many greats... I know there are many more sioux favorites that everyone likes so sorry if I did not include your favorite.....I think there was already a favorite current player poll in the last year so sorry for not including any of them.... WRITE IN VOTES ARE OK GO SIOUX..........

sorry to hear this. thoughts go out to DH and family.

SAT FEB 5TH AHL.... travis roche of chicago 1 assist in 2-1 loss to cleveland ryan bayda of lowell 2 assists and mike commodore (low) 1 assist in 6-4 win over bridgeport brandon bochenski of bingmanton 1 goal , 1 assist in 4-3 loss to hershey zach parise of albany 1 assist in 3-2 win over worcester lee goren of manitoba 1 assist in 5-1 win over san antonio brandon bochenski 40 points..leads all rookies...zach parise 4th in rookie scoring with 32 points...bochenski 3 more games played...

last season in november i was in denver for the series and i believe parise was in net. the puck was loose right in front of the net and one of the sioux players fell on the puck and intentionlly froze the puck in the crease maybe with his hand. they called a penalty shot and parise stoned him. it was great, the whole place was on their feet. the only one i have seen at a sioux game or ever!!

cool that they both are playing well. heres the link from this site that has already been started on this topic. http://siouxsports.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3675

i guess you are right optiism is the key umd is palying much better now so that will also be very interesting..3 way race for the 4,5,6 spots, who will step up??
