Period number 3 starts. Okay boys, let's go!

This is just a great plan by Hak to avoid being sent to Maripukey for the regionals. And since I'm enjoying a Guinness, all I have to say is, "Brilliant!!".

Hak's benched Greene for the second half of the period. OK, guys, we played that one even on the scoreboard. Now it's time for a patented University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux 5 goal 3rd period. Seriously, guys, let's just win this next period, continue to build on it and right this ship. It's early, let's learn from it and start the road to Columbus!! LET's GO SIOUX!!!!! FIGHT ON SIOUX!!!!!

Nope, no puck luck at all. Damn, worked once, thought it might again. Oh well, I'll try anything at least once.

And to top it all off, they're getting zero puck luck ---- and they score!!!!!

Thanks for the offer Dogz, but I don't have any to spare. Yes, the Sioux are playing that badly. I fear they'll all be in a rubber room shortly.

Come on guys, let's start getting out of this hole. I AM WILLING YOU ALONG. YOU WILL WIN THIS GAME, STARTING NOW!!!!!! WHO'S WITH ME!!!!!!

*^%&^^%*^*(^%*)(**^$

Come on, Hak, call a TO! Let's try to change the momentum.

For checking Eaves. Guess he's untouchable. Must be nice. Correction: penalty on Jones, TH didn't see it. Come on boys let's get a shorty!

You can play tough physical D without taking stupid cross-checking and checking-from-behind penalties.

I think they're really missing Rory tonight, especially in the face-off circle.

This is exactly what they boys didn't need. Badly outplay BC only to go down 2-0; then take a couple dumb penalties, 3-0; lose confidence, finally get a 5x3, then can't get a hold of the puck. Hak, Brad, Eades and the captains are going to have to get the boys to forget about that one and play good solid hockey coming out in the second. Look at it this way, if they come back from this one, it may be a watershed game for them.

Who are these guys in our boys' unis?

How 'bout a $%^$%$@^$ TO Hak?

&^*&%^#%^ 2-0 BC gionta

that [sic] is your comeback?? Mr [sic] inside info, that is your comeback?? WOW

I thought they had to be in the top ten AND win their conference in order to qualify for earned access. Is this not correct?

Isn't it funny that whenever a denigrating comment about North Dakota is made by a WCHA coach, crap sack Donnie Lucifer is the one who makes it? Check the record over the last three years. It's not even close.

Bottom line is that the Sioux need to start showing they can win the tough games on the road. The offense needs to really start to show some improvement, because if they don't, it leaves ZERO margin of error for the defense, which is just really not fair to those guys. They could have a stellar game with the exception of one or two plays, and the offense just can't pick them up. Case in point: @ SCSU this year. Winona probably doesn't deserve to be a lock at this point, but if the Sioux don't win out and EARN a trip to the playoffs, it won't matter because had they made it, they'd not be going anywhere in them anyway. UND is a fantastic defensive team, probably tops in the country, but their offense to this point has not been good against anything better than poor competition. If they have championship aspiratons, they need to get it going on both sides of the ball and no better time to start than this Saturday.

You mean 4 goals in two games?

I'll bet he did at the time he made his post!

You beat me to it sprig. I was going to ask if we should refer to him as Sir 7titles or m'lord?
