just seems to me that minn always thinks that they go pee pee in a better pot than everyone else. I guess that arrogance is what irritates me about them. I dont feel that way about any other team though
Really? I feel that way about DU and BC too! Go figure they all have relatively the same colors!

I'm slightly buzzed boys
When is that not the case?
When he's roaring drunk. At 1:30 in the afternoon, I'm surprised he's only slightly buzzed!

Wow. All this time I was excited the Sioux were going to Philly. I didn't realize it was actually Wisconsin that made it...

Here are a few numbers RE: the four starting goaltenders. UND and Gothberg both got off to rocky starts this season, but here is how Goth's & the other three FF starting goalies' numbers rank nationally in games played since Nov 30th:
Gothberg: 1.71 GAA (1st Nationally), .934 Save % (6th), 18 Wins (2nd), .804 Win % (2nd), 3 Shutouts (T-6th)
Stevens (Union): 1.92 GAA (6th), .936 Save % (5th), 21 Wins (1st), .846 Win % (1st), 5 Shutouts (T-1st)
Wilcox (UM): 1.76 GAA (2nd), .937 Save % (T-2nd), 16 Wins (6th), .771 Win % (4th), 3 Shutouts (T-6th)
Demko (BC): 2.05 GAA (10th), .925 Save % (16th), 13 Wins (9th), .778 Win & (3rd), 2 Shutouts (T-14th)
I'd say if anyone is a possible weak link, it's Demko.

I've seen Wilcox play a lot this year. He's the real deal. Way more consistent than Gothberg IMO.
Fortunately for us, Gothberg only has to be consistent for 2 more games, not the entire season.

Hopefully these two weeks prove invaluable for injury recovery.
Parks had his wrist thoroughly wrapped up this past weekend. I really think MacMillan is injured just based on the fact that he was absolutely dynamic when he first came back from injury and is now relatively unnoticeable.
I'm sure there are a ton more that I just haven't noticed yet.

Bryce van Brabant left QU to sign with Calgary.
Regarding Oesterle, I believe I read somewhere that he is the 4th D-man to leave WMU early in the past 2 years. Considering it generally takes longer to develop freshman D than F, that's brutal.
-
union sold out there allotment very quick
how come we havent
Probably because Union fans could drive to Philly faster than it would take to fly from Grand Forks to Philly.

Thanks for NOTHING, Notre Dame!
No kidding. It's almost like they don't even care about the Sioux's chances of winning the title; very selfish of them.
-
I'd go. Despite what some say on here, the opportunity to see your favorite team play at the Frozen Four doesn't happen all the time. Plus, if you don't go, you'll take it to your effing grave.... Your effing grave.
Definitely agree on going. I can't rearrange my work schedule for Thursday but, if the Sioux win, I very well might make the 11-12 hour drive down to Philly Friday after work for the championship game.
-
Well. They did.
Agreed. Not saying that the Sioux have no shot or that it would be a cakewalk for the gophers to win. But, pairwise speaking, you have three 1-seeds and a 4-seed. Whoever plays the 4-seed technically got the easier draw.

Great points. His speed, tenacity, and compete level are tremendous. His ceiling is certainly very high. I don't think you'd find many arguments if you said Rocco is the most skilled player on the team. I believe that myself. Would really like to see him chin up and just keep plugging away when it doesn't work. Easy for my lazy rear to say. He's all over the keep plugging away part, but I hate to see anyone in a UND jersey hang their head.
I actually thought Rocco did an excellent job of that on Saturday night. He was being clutched and grabbed and pulled every which way, yet he kept trying to power through it. I swear Czarnowczan made it his personal mission to repeatedly attack Grimaldi in that game; tripped him behind the net and then cross-checked him hard as soon as Ferris touched up (right in front of the official, though only the trip was called). And Rocco just skated away and kept pushing on the very next shift.

Gfhockey is kinda growing on me. Ha!
Like a fungus? You might want to get that checked out...

Anyone else thinking that it helps to have Karl Goehring in there coaching the goalies?
Absolutely. I loved reading the 'File it Away' story on CHN from last night's game. It's one thing for a goalie coach to teach actual logistics. But it's clear from that story that Karl really helps them tackle the mental battle as well.

Gophers handily out-skating St. Cloud. Not sure that means much about the gophers since St. Cloud looked pretty sloppy last night too.
Here's to a Sioux- Union championship game!!!
-
This one isn't looking good for Lowell. They're struggling to get any puck possession/pressure this period.
-
1st lead over BC for Lowell all year
-
He told them there's $100 for you if you overturn the goal.
He works for Boston College...add a couple zeros to that number!
-
UML PP goal! 1-1
I was just saying to myself that they're going to need an effective PP this game if they want to win.
Haha Lowell with as many PPG today as DU had power play shots yesterday. That is so sad...
-
A couple players have been losing edges; I wonder if ice quality is an issue.
-
Wow. You cannot give BC a 3 on 1, regardless of how good your goalie is. 1-0 BC
-
This could be fun. BC player collides with the ref during a stoppage in play. Ref was not amused at all.
By the way, thanks for your cable info so I can watch the game
-
BC-Lowell has a little chippiness already. About 5 minutes in.
-
imo the top end talent is at d, which will become even more apparent in the future
I definitely agree with this. For all the crap everyone gives Berry about the collasal failure of our power play, the improvement and growth of the D under his coaching has been incredibly apparent.

And that's part of why the playoffs are so ridiculously fun.
