Great play off the draw there. What people won't remember is the great job that Hextall did setting a pick for Gregoire......should have probably been a penalty.

This was one of the best F5 of all time and the gophers weren't there. Good riddance....

I was just going to say the same thing.....what an actor......I hate guys that pull that crap and are out on the next fricken shift......

Good period for the sioux. Thats four really good periods in a row.

Puck is bouncing more than a basketball..... Give the ice some work and it will get better......

That first goal is a shot that Eidsness needs to have.....It was a great opportunity, but Brad would probably like that one back.

Three and a half hours away from game time, and very glad at the same time that we can see this game on TV tonight! I think a big key to this series will be the Lamoureax-Rodwell-Davidson line. If that line plays like they did against Fairbanks I like UND's chances. I was thinking about the line combos today and I can't remember a time that UND had so much depth and so many lines that can produce for them. Whatever line gets matched up on the Read line will have a big time task, but I think really any line UND puts out has a chance to match up with that line. I'm guessing Eidsness gets the call in net? Just a guess?

I think I care more now about UND women's hockey than I do about the football team. I hope it was a great crowd.

I'd love to see how Shannon Miller (or whatever the Duluth coach is named) is taking this. She looks like an ultra intense lady....

At least the men's team isn't the only one taking penalties at inopportune times.....get a kill and win the game ladies!

Thanks for the updates Brian. Keep them coming if you could.

Anybody got a score today?

4 Zip bulldogs.....Can't turn over the puck like they have been.

Young goaltender starting for UAA tonight.....get pucks deep, crash the net hard, and get in his head a little bit. Still anxious to see who the six defensemen will be tonight....I'll guess Genoway Blood LaPoint Marto Mcwilliam Forbort

Friday Frattin Saturday Kristo

Hey! Alright! Sioux hockey! Put the coffee on at 10:30 and watch the sioux play into Saturday morning!

I like the idea of the goaltenders splitting time this weekend. I think you have Dell start against Anchorage, and go with Eidsness against Fairbanks, as they'll probably be a bit better of a team right now. Then again, how do you not let your number one guy from last year not start the season opener? I'm anxious to see who the six defensemen will be Friday night.

Ahh yes......Denver has to move on after life with Cheverie........They still have some great players, but I don't see them finishing in the top three of the WCHA.

First scrum of the year......Nice to see no one was dumb enough to drop the gloves and miss the bus to Alaska....

Boy, the Malone-Trupp-Frattin line is going to be huge for the sioux this year. They could have five or six goals through almost two periods...... I predicted 9-1.....could get there....

Double post: Saw it was only like 1200 today......kind of a disappointment....

Sioux lose 6-2 (two empty net goals).......but overall a good weekend getting a split. Anybody hear what the attendance was?

Thats a bigger crowd than they get for the boys state hockey tournament championship game. Great crowd. Hopefully tomorrow a lot of people come for the doubleheader. Could be a great crowd with no Vikes football tomorrow.....4,000 maybe?

That was my exact reaction. These are the same friends that in college drove down to Alabama to watch the sioux play in a couple of national championship games...... Must be something about those Lamoureaxs.....

If you would have told me five years ago that the Sioux women's hockey team would be getting more attention than the football team I would have called you nuts. I have a number of friends that constantly travel to close sioux football games, but decided to attend the women's home opener today instead....wow.... I'll bit## a little about Landry too. He got a lot of credit for last week when he tore up a DII type defense that had no clue what their assignments in the secondary were at times. He could have had like four interceptions today....lucky it was only two...
