Congrats on the new arrival Mafia!!!!!! I'd hope you would post a picture for all to see!

I like the physical edge that Ausmus brings, but Thompson wins my vote because he adds offense to a team that struggles to score at times. If they could clone Stecher I'd be okay with that option too.

Same thing as UNO right...

They may need to consider hosting the tournament at the top seed's venue. I mean how close were they this year to CC, Western, Miami, and Denver? Just a thought. UMD, Duluth, SCSU, UND make it and attendance isn't an issue.

Last time the Sioux played Miami it was pretty simple. Chip it out against their top guys, and then attack their defensemen with multiple bodies around the net. Not sure you can just chip and chase now that they have Coleman back and their top six forwards are pretty good, but I think that a lesson that can be learned from Miami beating SCSU is gap control defensively. SCSU gave some of those forwards way too much space and they paid for it. Miami is still horrible in their own end. They overcommit a lot, and Czarnik almost cost his team dearly against SCSU when he let a guy behind him for that goal with .1 left on the clock. When I was at the UND-Miami series I've never seen a goaltender yell at his defensemen so much, and for good reason. McKay almost killed one of them one time, but he was saved by his defensive partner.

Roll Tribe! PS: And I should have said what happened at the end of the season the last time the Sioux played at the Target Center.

Just wanted to say that the lucky sweater is 5-0 in game threes since I was in college.....

UND fans will be out in full force Friday night in downtown Minneapolis. Can't wait for Friday to get here. Some beers to settle me in for Western and Denver, and then UND-Miami to keep their seasons alive. Everyone remembers the last game UND played at the Target Center.

Agreed. They have to look at defensive zone coverage. Too many goals from the points off of tips and screen plays where sticks weren't tied up. Breaking the puck out will be a point of discussion I'm betting. Keep it simple against Miami fellas.

Heart is in my throat......

Bad turnover again, and its 4-3. Come on fellas.

The last guy you want on a breakaway twice in a row.....but under two minutes left now.

Okay.....Powerplay UND. Watch the cherry picking Russian.

Under 5 to the Hogg being the social place to be on Saturday at 11 AM.

I had a feeling Panz would end up in the lineup tonight for a more physical presence. I like him in the lineup. Not the most talented guy in the world, but the effort and heavy game (© Starman) add a lot to the group.

Okay, question here.....The Parks line can score but at the same time a defensive liability. How much ice do they see the last 8 minutes here? UND Bench on injured Tiger: He hit himself....glad he's okay.

Troy Stecher saved a goal on a nice reverse net cycle play by CC. Little plays that make a huge difference.

Someone have any idea when the last time either BC or BU weren't at the hockey east tournament? PS: Next year I'll pick BC to win the league to kill any chance they have. Sorry BU.

For the love of Parise, watch for the cherry picking Russian.

Powerplay for UND. And Obstruction is called.....what?

Now keep the foot on the gas pedal fellas.

BIG BIG GOAL BOYS!!!

I can't remember seeing a team ice the puck this much. Wow.

Well, 20 minutes to play fellas. I'd like to see UND battle to get the next goal. Go at them hard here and get that two goal lead back. CALM DOWN LADUE!!!! WE ALL LOVE YOU PAULIE!!!!

Fire Allain and Sandeline......
