Tims just said it went off the vermin should have been a good goal! )(&%%#@!%^^ shepherds should all be given their walking papers! Way to officiate a sure split putz. It's amazing that Donnie Lucifer still has any of his soul left to sell to the devil, but apparently he does. Man, I hate it when the Sioux lose to these jerks.

Not disputing that, but it went off of Parise's stick, hit a vermin ass-clown and then was touched by the Sioux, all before going into the net. So what the hell is the proper ruling? Good goal or not? From my understanding, should be good.

Yes, it definitely came off the vermin crap-sack before another Sioux player touched it.

Okay, say it was played with a high stick, but it went off a yellow vermin piece-of-crap, so should'nt the goal count?

Is that what that was? I thought it was a second puck.

Sure, kick a guy when he's down.

I knew if I didn't leave they'd call the game. Knew if I left they'd resume play. You are all welcome. OK, ice has a problem, how 'bout making a public announcement to clue in everyone in the frick'n world? NOBODY in the arena knew what the prob was. A guy next to me even called home and asked someone watchin' FSN. No idea. Shep checkin' everything out, skatin' all over, scrapin' the spot with a stick and his skates, talkin' to everyone possible at ice level, drinkin' out of a water bottle while sittin' his useless posterior down, but NEVER givin' any kind of indication that he was satisfied w/ the ice. Needless to say I was sure they were going to call the game ala Wisco. OOOOOPS. Alas, not so. Should have stuck it out (instead I'm takin' the way of the coward and blamin' Shep). Thanks for the kind words NDH btw. Pretty sure this not-so-diehard Sioux fan doesn't deserve them.

What the hell is it to you if Sioux fans hate Woog? Who are you, his kid? Your understand that Woog should be pro-UMN since that is who he works for, but don't understand why Sioux fans are anti-Woog? Go bark up a different tree.

I will be disappointed if the Sioux don't sweep. That doesn't have anything to do with the particulars of this weekend though. I am always disappointed if the Sioux don't sweep, whether it be against Tech, UMN, an NHL team, our 2001-2002 Sioux vs. the UMN team of that year, it doesn't matter, I always want the Sioux to win and I am always disappointed if they don't. I also think I'm likely to be disappointed this weekend. As much as I thoroughly despise UMN, they are not doing it with mirrors. They are back and they are for real. In addition, Briggs is playing very well of late. I view him as much like Hauser (big, plays well positionally, but does not move well and is not overly talented), but much more mentally tough. The Sioux need to crowd him, hit him with a lot of rubber and make him move to make a save. The Sioux just don't like the big ice. They play tentatively on it. They need to play smart, but much more aggressively on it. UMN lives and dies on the power play. The Sioux will need not to take any stupid penalties, but also need to avoid having to take penalties because they get beat (i.e. don't get beat). Sioux goaltending will need to be solid, not letting in any softies. I see these games as being pretty evenly played with the winner determined by the team that gets the better bounces. I don't expect a blowout in either game, but if there is one (or two) I would be really disappointed if it was at the expense of the Sioux. I really hope the Sioux sweep. If they don't, I hope even more that the whole team, meaning all forward lines, all defensive pairs and all goaltenders give it a full 60 minutes both nights and play with a lot of poise, intelligence, and aggressiveness.

Perhaps you'd be more comfortable visiting another board. That would be perfectly fine with me.

Did you honestly expect differently? It is the University of the People's Republic of Minnesota, after all.

If BC could get three of their clowns named as finalists, I should think it not out of the realm of possibility that really quality players like Bo and Zach could also be co-finalists. And what about Matt Jones? IMHO, he's the best defensemen I've seen in college hockey this year and it doesn't appear as if he's even made it to phase 2 (from an earlier post on this thread, I haven't actually checked the site).

If NDSU wanted to play UND year-in, year-out, they should have stayed in the NCC. Why the hell do their apologists find that so hard to understand?

Has Al Pearson organized one for this weekend?

Really, there's no need for you guys to continue your witty repartee in public. Please take it off board.

Goon, if you think Vanek the wonder vermin is pretty, you need to have your eyes checked!

Gee, why do I hate Ass-Clown U? What complete and utter BS. Who has the strongest strength of schedule (unamimously, BTW)? Uhhhhhh, I think that would be the Sioux. Who travels the fewest miles of any team in the conference (every @#%$&^ year)? Uhhhhhhhhhh, I think that would be the University of the People's Republic of Minnesota. Can you tell it's Sioux-yellow vermin week?

Conner is a heck of a player and he got a ton of ice time on the PK. There's a reason why he has 5 shorties.

I think they're saying "Campion Sucks!".

How do you stop the Sioux? Take penalty after penalty.

PP Sioux, Big Ticket's been quiet.

4 x 4, Smaby and Murphy

Sioux shooting a lot, but missing the net.

Too late. (jk)

While I am not a fan of the Mild, Lemaire, or the 'opportunities' they've given to TR, I believe if the called TR up, he would have to clear waivers before he could be sent back down. This other d-man may not have the same baggage.
