2-1 Sioux end 2. SOG 25-15 in favor of Sioux.

I'm not either, but he is the 13th forward after all.

Iron unkind!!

2-1 Sioux

The sad thing is I like Jim as a Color Commentator and Sweeny's dragging him down!

Duncs 2-1

YES

I really wish Sweeney would shut up about what's on the big screen...

Justin Duuuuuuuberman

You're spot on. There were a couple of times where if he would have just made himself a little "bigger" he may have stopped a couple more. He looks tight right now, and he's getting beat an awful lot short-side and by some squeakers.

They showed us how to screen the goalie. They could have showed the Badger goal replays...

Can someone tell me why they need to do an on-ice demonstration for the fans of the "State of Hockey?" Don't they already know?

So what this says to me is that the Sioux are already in the Pioneer heads and DU is going to change how they play in order to match up. Let's hope the Sioux can take advantage while DU is distracted by trying to be physical and score a couple early to really get 'em rattled! GO SIOUX!!

Calder & Henderson also come to mind...

Lee Goren, hands down. He was a gamer & wasn't afraid to get the "ugly" goals in front of the net. My second choice would have been Roche.

I'd say the most recent example is Karl Goehring. He was brought in after Schweitzer's freshman season ('97 championship), and ultimately ended up with the starting job 1/3 of the way into the following season. Schweitzer was "the man" after his freshman season, but it just goes to show you can never be certain.

Smart people don't need to study!

So what you're saying is Walski should be given a chance to play, or to use one of your terms, is ENTITLED to start due to the work he's put in over the years; but Eidsness shouldn't be ENTITLED to start because he's only a freshman regardless of the results on the ice. Gee, I get it now...

That's why they brought Greico in a couple years back, but he left the team and thus we have Walski as our backup this year and not 3rd string. It was Walski's choice to join the team. If he thought his situation was so bad, he could have left under his own free will and pursued playing time elsewhere. He didn't. 'Nuff said. PS. Who are you to say his college career was a "waste?"

By your logic it seems the only "work" that matters is what is done at the college level. You fail to consider the work that has been put in at the lower levels up to this point. Perhaps E is where he is because he's been working hard and "paying his dues" prior to college in order to be properly prepared for this level of play.

I think if we take a step back and look at the big picture, things aren't all that bad. I thought 5 on 5 the team was solid, so when the special teams play comes around and they can get Finley back anchoring the blue line this will be a pretty solid team. What else should we be expecting this early in the year while players find their roles?

Why would the gopher game be part of their season ticket package if it's not technically their home game? Is it part of the MSU-M and/or UMD season ticket package?

So is the information here innacurate even though the release date is listed as 8/1/08? FightingSioux.com Broadcast Information

I've always thought Koivu is the guy they should be "building" around. Jaques should also let him wear the "C" full time instead of playing the captain merry-go-round.
