Quick observations before I let the dogs out, and hit the sack (Before the five month old wakes me up at 3 AM...) ~Nice start by Eidsness, but I think Dell is in the net tomorrow. ~Nice to see the Sioux able to play four lines for most of the game. Scoring early helped. ~The powerplay was fantastic. Best it has looked all year. ~Turned the puck over a bit too much in the defensive end....but my hat is off to the fellas for the shot blocking. Would love to see how many blocked shots the Sioux had. Glad I stayed up to watch the win.

Sioux win 5-2......Need to find a way to get the sweep on Saturday night.

Couple nice saves on some doorstep chances by Eidsness. He has played very well for the Sioux tonight. Under a minute to go. The Sioux will win it....just not sure what the score will be.

Powerplay....wouldn't mind a goal here....

Nice glove save by Eids.....Sioux sitting back a bit.

5-2 UAA. Defensive breakdown costs the Sioux. Eidsness almost makes a great save.

Powerplay has been good....5-1 Sioux.

Anyone else think the Sioux are passing a bit too much in the prime scoring areas? Shoot the puck fellas. 4-1. Good third period so far.

Agreed. Kind of like weird Saturday night live commercials....

4-1 Sioux after two periods. Eidsness looking sharp through two periods.

Jeez.....still battling the turnovers in the defensive zone. Under 3 left in the second 4-1 Sioux.

Penalty on the Sioux. McMillan with a high stick. Anchorage wants a five, but not happening.

I'm guessing they are having issues with the video review....no way would it take this long. And if so...its got to be a goal.....yep...goal.

They can't call this goal off....no fricken way.....Nelson isn't interfering with the goaltender whatsoever....puck goes through Kamal's five hole off the stick of Rowney.....

Thank God I put the knock on wood in there....4-1 Sioux.

Sioux powerplay. Has been good all night....knock on wood.

Penalty on Forbort. One he had to take in that situation. 3-1 Sioux....14 minutes left in the second.

Good start to the second period is rewarded with a powerplay. Hopefully the Sioux can get that three goal cushion back.

Believe this is the last trip to Anchorage, at least as a member of the WCHA. Brad talked about it a bit on his blog.

Sioux on their heals a bit here. Got to get out of the period.

Paging fourth liners.....you can't take penalties....got to get a kill here.

Starting to come together Pepper....starting to come together.....

Was thinking the same thing....like...did the Sioux travel to Europe to play this game? O'Donnell is going to be a stud.....I hope he's around in three years.

Good post. Extremely realistic results. Hopefully the Sioux are able to get a sweep in one of those likely split series, or three of four.

I'm not a huge fan of the goal celebrations in the video, but then again you've got to let a kid be a kid, and enjoy playing the game. Can't stand jersey popping at all.....leave that to the NBA....or gopher hockey.
