Fixed your post...….

Is there anyone home? How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

Minnesota needed the PP to beat Niagra…….. so stay out of the box! Duluth had 2 early 5 min majors- but gave up 1 goal on them. Loss of d men showed late when Wisco went at them tho. They committed a 3rd 5 min with no call in the 3rd too. Plus gave up a shorty. So Duluth was getting called tonight on their aggressive play- early in the season, and with B10 refs tho.

For those counting...…… 40 days until puck drops....

????? Cant find a story here....

Just 60 days until the puck drops...……..

Just 75 days till puck drops as of today....in a couple hours, it's 74....

But Brandon’s litter is actually litter. Rink bunnies not do much.

So. No Canadian teams left in playoffs? What’s TSN going to talk about?

There were Sioux fans all over the place. Some were cheering loudly for AIC, but it appeared to be just small groups from where I was. Hard to be sure, as some obnoxious drunk Sioux fan was loudmouthing crap at St. Cloud fans so much we couldn't hear much of anything else. I was really embarrassed for how that makes our fan base appear to visitors--I know I know--Cloud fans do it to us in their house. Still not right. I apologized to the elderly couple in front of us, as she put her coat on to leave mid 3rd period, and she sat down until the end. We will be there tonight-- want to see AIC defrock the Pios...

The game was what it was--St Cloud choking once again, 3rd time in 4 years for this heavy senior class. The ice looked good at the start of game 1. But it was really not good at all by game 2. St. Cloud had major issues with their finesse style play, especially on the PP. Could not count the number of whiffs or miss-plays during good shooting attempts- or even passes. Especially R. Poehling… when set up on PP. But credit AIC- they actually had more good scoring chances than Cloud until the very end, despite only 13 shots on goal. And a 3rd goal disallowed as it was 1-2 seconds after a period end. As well as a crossbar miss. As it turns out, looks like all goals were scored by AIC- as I think the Cloud goal went in off an AIC Dman…. I feel bad for the NCHC (national champion hockey conference), as this looked to be St. Clouds year, finally. The Scheels arena looks likely to be a tomb tomorrow- AIC vs Denver? Saw maybe a dozen Denver fans. AIC had under 700 per game at home. so....no one here but Sioux fans making a Holy Cross type statement.

About a high school amount of fans for Denver vs Ohio St. Ice looks good. Ohio St 15 member band beats Denver’s by 15..... Kind of a morgue compared to 2017......

It looks like I might have 2 for Friday. Sec 110 row F or 107 row G (2 each) My son looks to only need 2. Send me a PM if interested.

I think I am going to be be sick... "Rooting" (well hoping they win anyway) for Goofers, Wisco and Duloot so they can help this sorry team is not healthy. I'm trying, but it's not worth it if we just keep losing anyway....

Should we start a pool on what is the "best" excuse Canada comes up with for this loss??

My buddy is a huge Bison fan. He says Stick is now tied with a prior SU QB (Benson??) for most wins by FCS QB in the history of the entire league. And if they win in Frisco- he will be #1 all time at 2nd level football. That is a statement. He gave up a #1 win option to Wentz too when Carson returned to finish his college career in the final game, which would have given Stick the title now. None of this is verified, as I just don't care much about football, but my buddy is passionate about it. Bison not only lose Stick, but the Coach and many seniors as well. might be a rough next year--especially if coach takes assistants with him to Kansas. The key guy might be the strength and conditioning coach- it is not a fluke that they win games late a lot--this guy is the real deal he says.

If anyone thinks our NCHC officials are weak, check out his link from collegehockeynews: www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2018/11/29_Atlantic-Hockey-Suspends.php That is SIX suspensions in one game, none of which were called. Just WOW! How bad can refs get??

FYI the Jamestown and Duluth papers are also owned by the Forum in Fargo.....

I am not a hockey knowledge guy, but. It seems like this team loses its "teamness" and kind of panics at games like this with long stretches of individuals doing a "fling a puck here and another one there" type play with plenty of time to find the open man if a tad of patience was used. I realize things move fast, but we miss excellent pass/play opportunities a lot, and don't appear to need to. Just my $02.

Wow. Just wow. This video is well worth watching. And big KUDOS to the traveling fans!! That was nice and appropriate. And to the Engelstad family for all they do...despite big issues with leadership....

10 days 2 hrs and46 min until it drops!

20 days 6 hrs 15 min until puck drops. That’s under 3 weeks fans!

It's now 30 days 8 hours and 28 min until puck drop...

It is now 40 days, 20 hrs and 48 minutes until puck drop...

Down to 50 days 4 hours and 32 minutes for puck drop.
