This red river group is down from where they have been. But there is a bit more parity around the state from the bigger programs. The west is catching up a little bit. But they really had nowhere to go but up.

Well it's 2-2 going to the third period. Minot has been in this position a lot over the past 23 years. But usually finds a way to lose. Maybe this group will be different.

Minnesota would have won 10-1. Settling for second place is not what pigs with spatulas is about.

2-2 late in the second.....

Its like the KX weather channel. I'm watching on Midco 591.

It was only a matter of time. Mandan taking an offensive zone penalty that lead to a goal might have officially put the dagger in.

I'm upset with the direction the team has taken. Pig with spatula (as my two year old calls them) is not about regular season championships. Pig with spatula is about getting it done in the postseason which they obviously have maliciously pissed down their leg in back to back seasons. And as far as I know they didn't even gain home ice in their playoffs. Likely because of that tie. Dean Blais would have gone 7-0 and found a place to call home ice for the playoffs.

Horrible give away by their d man. Passed it right to a WF player that scored the game winner five hole.

Mandan holding their own. Have had some decent chances, but most of the grind time is GFC. Can't believe Dennis Johnson's kid is a senior.....wow. 1-1 10 minutes left in the second period.

Yeah, got quite the assist on the game winner.

How about a picture of Cary Eades with a national championship trophy and a bunch of Nebraska Omaha players behind him? Can you do that?

Nothing definitive on the replay. Good goal on the ice, had to call it good goal from the review. 2-2 to OT.

West Fargo sacred heart actually. 1-1 game after two periods.

I bet you let a long time assistant go that has been the missing piece of these championship runs.

Can't win the big one....

And talk about playing undisciplined.....getting a player tossed. Comes from the top. Dean Blais wouldn't have let that happen.

With the fleece hats as a recruiting tool you shouldn't lose a game. I think that your team is too pampered. Every one of your games should be played in an icy parking lot with limited lighting. If you don't win a championship within the next three years regardless of winning percentage your team needs to look else where. My son is a huge fan of pig with spatula, and this type of stretch is unacceptable. No championships in his lifetime.....

It becomes a 5-3 in overtime because of the multiple penalties to the U.S. Its a weird rule. I can't find it anywhere online. But it is a rule I promise. Had the U.S. killed it it would have gone to 5-5 until a whistle, and then 4-4 play resuming.

6-3 Bismarck final. Lots of penalties and chippy play at the end. Could see an all Bismarck semi after this next tilt.

I don't have a good feeling about the men's game tomorrow. Hope I'm wrong like usual.

6-3 Bismarck with about 4 minutes left. And South with a flurry at Bismarck now.

Agreed. Completely quit forechecking. Chip and chase..... Now they have another four years to think about this one.

Talk about ticky tack officiating at the end......goodness. Unreal.

So a minor slash makes up for a two arm shot to the head....okay....yup....

And Jocelyn takes a slashing penalty.....come on.....this is the olympics.....
