North got a gift from South/Shanley, who got the game to OT, and they get Davies instead of Mattern and WFHS right away. GFC vs. S/S or GPR RR vs. Sheyenne or Mayport North vs. Davies Devils Lake vs. WFHS

But think about the power play.....😄

Give yourself some credit! It had more to do with your knowledge of the wide world of windows. The people they hire having kids that are above average hockey players is completely coincidental.

I'm not sure, but I'm sure there is a co-op agreement that the state is okay with. Years ago you had the BW Blades playing on the North Dakota side of things and that included Breck kids playing in North Dakota. You would think the Spuds would want Park Christian as a co-op partner, but someone may know more than I do why the schools don't come together for hockey.

Tonight all gets decided in the EDC. If DL wins in regulation: North @ WFHS on Tuesday, Devils Lake @ Davies on Tuesday, Sheyenne vs. Mayport Saturday, S/S vs. GPR Saturday. If the game goes to OT: North @ Davies, Devils Lake @ WFHS, Same play in games Saturday. If South wins in regulation: North vs. Davies, Devils Lake @ WFHS, Sheyenne vs. GPR, S/S vs. Mayport on Saturday. If you are Fargo North you are cheering on your Fargo Freeze/Angels buddies to get the game to OT, or to beat the birds. If you are Sheyenne you are hoping your friends up in ice fishing country stay on their hot streak so you get the 7th seed and Mayport instead of the Spoilers on Saturday. Any way it plays out, DL has fought its way out of the play in game for the first time in a few years.

Being humble off the ice doesn't include teammates girlfriends does it? I mean was Fido really clear on that one? Probably more like Munski's Geography class?

Gotta get the puck deep against Canada.....oof.

I've heard nothing but good things about the kid. I hope the Grubb kid gets at least approached.

Tiebreaker is wins in the region, which would give DL the tiebreaker. North didn't pull their goalie last night down 1-0 so they could hold on to the head to head differential, but it didn't work and they got scored on with like 17 seconds left, and now DL holds the head to head if they win in regulation on Thursday. North is hoping for an OT game or a S/S victory, which is always difficult up in Devils Lake.

I should've said Park Christian as well. Thats the other school in the South/Shanley Co-op.

Devils Lake with quite the run. They take out North tonight in Devils Lake and officially avoid the play in game. If they beat South/Shanley on Thursday they will end up 5th in the region and would play Davies on Tuesday. Currently 1. Central-locked in. 2. RR-Locked in. 3. WFHS-Locked in. 4. Davies-Locked in. 5. North-5th or 6th. 6. DL-5th or 6th. 7. Sheyenne-7th or 8th 8. South/Shanley-7th or 8th, they hold tiebreaker over Sheyenne. 9. GPR-Locked in. 10. Mayport.

You go to Shanley.

Tonight's predictions: -North over DL -Central over GPR -Century over BHS -Dickinson over HB -Jamestown over Mandan -Minot over Williston -RR over South/Shanley -WFHS over Sheyenne Busy night.

Soller up to 63 points with Shattuck's 16U. Andover kid Fitzhenry with 78 points thus far in 45 games. Grubb (Minot) with 50 pts. All three Sophomores school wise. Another good player on that team is Bedoya. East coast kid that has committed to Yale I guess.

With the pairwise being what it is it would be interesting to see where UND would be if they were to sweep Denver. I'll bet @MafiaMan's jersey collection that they don't sweep in Denver this weekend though.

Given where they are at with funding will there be a SCSU in 10 years?

I'd bet he means Robbie Earl.

Mankato to NCHC, St. Thomas to NCHC, Miami to CCHA like old times. Gotta keep Western in the league.

Looked like an uneventful game in Williston last night between the Yotes and Mandan. 2-1 Mandan in OT. Minot over Dickinson 6-1. Mayport beats Bottineau in non conference.

Now we play the other Colorado school. A road trip that just isn't kind, against a team that has been up and down a bit, but for my money has the most talented roster in the league. UND sits a mere point ahead of Denver with a month left in the regular season. After this series Denver is at Miami and then home with SCSU which to me seems like an automatic 12 points and the Pios jumping UND. UND sits 9 points back of ASU and Omaha, with those teams playing two more league games, but we have a Lawson visit looming ahead as well, so making up ground not easy. With how up and down UND has been I just can't see them getting anything out of Denver. Denver did get outplayed in large stretches by ASU, and Matt Davis turned in a great performance to help them grab a point last night in what turned into a series of OT games. If we do get a third period lead we will just sit back and get shelled before they tie it and we end up in OT. I think Denver sweeps, will gladly be proved wrong, but not many great surprises this season.

The ducks.....those poor ducks...

Definitely the first NCHC league tournament ever held at the beautiful Target Center, and there was a large rat running right down the middle of the concourse. I looked at an employee and asked if anyone was going to do something? The reply, "Nah bro, that's one of the small ones."

TJ was good last night, but at this point of the season it's like the old John Madden quote about if you have two QBs you really have none. Neither has been able to build on starts and get on a roll at all. The only way TJ is in the net Saturday in Denver is if he is sensational on Friday and likely steals the game. If he's average UND loses, and we hope Hobie can win in a tough place to win Saturday.

I think he may have just looked at the goalie wrong....

Commodore would've killed that guy....
