It would be nice for UND to be on the good end of a "hot goalie" for once.

Remember when Charles Murphy was going to be the savior of the fighting sioux nickname after he was elected chairman?

Was that the original intent of the final five name or did they just change the meaning to match the new format?

rigggggght, need to rename the tournament.

Correct me if I am wrong, but if Wisconsin wins Denver is out so we are a 3 seed, meaning we do not play thursday and get to play Minnesota-Duluth on Friday. Winner of Wisconsin and St Cloud would get UM, Has the format of the tournament changed??

Funny national story on Grimaldi Twitter posts. http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puck_daddy/post/Ladies-Rocco-Grimaldi-requests-you-cover-up-for?urn=nhl-wp13663

I was thinking that I have seen UND come back towards the end of the 3rd period down 1 goal.... but this just didn't feel like one of those games.

Finally some jump, hopefully they can keep it up.

This is getting ugly...

Frozen four tickets are more difficult to get than Final 5 tickets.

Hopefully this game doesnt go into overtime so we miss the first part of the UND game... Oh wait.

Holy crap, after 1 period? Based on the score updates coming in I thought it was at least part way through 2nd period.

Wait, you can't pull April Fools jokes on April 2

Oh my god... not only did you solve my problem about not having any of the channels the sioux are on... but we are having a party tomorrow during the day. You can watch the games ON DEMAND once they are finished. I love you. Now, let's not get CC'd

How bad it gets probably depends highly on how much precipitation Fargo gets this spring.

Must be a hot goalie... lol

My DirectTV channel 617 (FCS) says upcoming game 09/09 Merrimack @ UND. Anybody having problems with the online radio feed tonight? Very difficult to hear (static etc.).

Maybe I'm wrong, but the sieve chant is not trying to immitate the Tomahawk chop. I think it is just a coincidence that they look similar.

I think the likelihood of this happening is dependent on how dedicated Murphy is to fighting for this issue.

http://www.bismarcktribune.com/news/state-...1cc4c03286.html Whoever wrote this article obviously hasn't been paying attention to recent events: "UND is the only school deemed by the NCAA to have a "hostile or abusive" logo or nickname not to have changed the name or been granted a waiver to keep it. Unless the school gets the permission of the state's two Sioux tribes to keep the nickname, which is unlikely, it must change the name or its teams won't be allowed to compete in postseason tournaments starting next year."

The protestors are losing so they are starting to change their argument and as a result they are losing the moral high ground from an outsiders point of view (of course I never thought they had it).

I assume the determining factor will be what happens during the Sept 30 SR election.

Didn't they already do that?

Have there been any theories floating around that the SBoHE set the Oct 1 deadline to light some fires under the tribes to get something done? Just curious.

I just have to have a hard time believing that people are just going to let the board let the nickname expire with that has transpired.
