Seems to me he maybe just wanted the option to fight...see his near Gordie Howe hat-trick referenced in the article.

I believe Root Sports Rocky Mountain is considered regional, just as Fox Sports North is regional. In fact, RSRM used to be Fox Sports Rocky Mountain. One needs to add a sports pack if not in the normal viewing region in order to view these channels.

So, if the new criteria is championships, how much longer are some of you willing to wait? I'd like to know how much longer we stay with Hak and who we replace him with. And also answer this: if the new guy fails to make the NCAA tournament, even only after one season, should he be fired too?

Even if the current #1 loses (MN), it doesn't change the fact that the "new" #1 seed will play Friday night because the MN rule would not be in effect.

Maybe he will take inspiration from what Frattin was UNABLE to deliver his senior season - a National Championship. Kristo was a very early commit and always wanted to be a Sioux. Maybe he's driven by the desire to add something to the legacy of UND hockey that guys like Toews, Parise, Fratts, etc. weren't able to deliver. There were plenty of concerns on this board his freshman season as to whether or not he "fit" the Sioux mold. Well...I think those questions have been answered. He has epitomized Fighting Sioux Hockey this season. The kid brings it EVERY night. Still plenty of time left on this season to deliver as well!

Yes

Time to turn the major powerplay stats in our favor!

Seems like they've had more breakaway opportunites in the last three weeks than in the previous 10 years combined!

No - not on DirecTV

Kristo breakaway 5-hole

Badgers take 1-0 Lead on Minny

1-0 MSU bad turnover in zone.

From FoxNews this afternoon: http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/happening-now/index.html?playlist_id=86919&intcmp=features#/v/1485354033001/fight-over-fighting-sioux-logo

I think what you've posted here gives context as to why UND's run this season is so impressive to me (and likely most Sioux fans). They've actually played better the thinner the lineup has become!

Glad you pointed out that most of MSU's recent success was against the bottom six in the league. Still, though, UND can't take anything for granted and they know this. If you'd have told me three months ago that this team would have a chance to get in the tourney on their own merit and not need help I'd have thought you were nuts. I'm expecting a sweep, but would be only mildly disappointed with less than that all things considered this year.

FYP

Does he have his facts straight? It's my understanding that the law doesn't force the logo on the uniforms, so they would be able to compete and avoid forfeiture at the NCAA level with "generic" unis.

Correct. DirecTV is not picking up the live games from Fox College Sports this weekend. The games will be on cable systems that carry Fox College Sports.

No...we don't know for sure...keyword "may" only be available. Lots of time before this is an issue, though, so hopefully something gets worked out.

I only use mine for FSSN broadcasts so I don't really know. From what I've seen you can get some occasional sports and a lot of news feeds, but I'm not sure I would rely on it as my sole source of TV entertainment. Of course...if you only need it for Sioux games during hunting season you'd be set - especially considering they may only be available nationally on FTA due to the upcoming TV deal with the NCHC. It's a good thing we have a year and a half to get this figured out!

The phrase "blind leading the blind" comes to mind!

Fail. They didn't frame it as a Yes or No question. The Yes answer included the qualifier "The nickname and Logo are Offensive." Therefore, if I don't believe the nickname to be offensive, but I still feel it should be changed because the University is between a rock and a hard place, I don't have a place to cast my vote. The third option "I don't care" is also not available to me because I do care.

Can you imagine if Paul Allen regularly had Roman on his show instead of Ryan Cardinal?

I love DirecTV, but since Fox College Sports is a CABLE service first I've always kept my FTA system ready. In fact, this year I've been watching on FTA for the superior picture and relying on my DirecTV for backup.
