Sioux_Hab-it

In last year's championship game Michigan State had solid goaltending, strangled BC's offence and kept their mistakes to a minimum. Therefore, I am not worried about this Sioux team as I think they have exhibited these traits over the past couple of months and the extra goals aren't necessary.

Must be tough to have to turn to another school in order to back a winner. At least you picked a school that can't beat your hockey team.

I wonder if the Flu was Oshies problem as at one point he was sitting on a chair in the tunnel, which suggests he wanted to be close to the lockeroom facilities.

Well at least the tie sends Bucky on the road for the playoffs.

Hak has stated several nights that he wants a number one seed so what makes you say there is nothing to lose

Regardless of the outcome of this game it can only be either MTU or UMD. If the current scores hold up it will be MTU.

Dogz will devour the Pies next weekend.

Early in the second VV inadvertently put it in his own net and I think Borgen? got credit for the goal.

No doubt about which player is the leader of the Devils.

Thinking back to last season Denver must be sweating bullets about having to face the Dogz again if this score holds up.

Gordon punched Stalock no DQ. If you are a Gopher and you keep your gloves to throw a punch you only get a minor according to McClown's WCHA rule book.

Back down the tunnel

GopherZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, you are about to find out how good those Gopher rejects really are.

Only one issue. Anderson would have likely watched an overhead replay so how could he tell if the net was tipped forward before the puck crossed the line. They never did slow down the TV replay enough to be able to tell.

What was that a penalty for being too big?

Some good news, Northeastern defeats BC 3-2 in OT.

Wheeler will be the biggest first round bust since Jason Bonsignore. Big size and potential but neither have or had the heart and stamina to excel in the Pros.

Watch the replay again, he had to realize that was a dangerous hit and it did have an unfortunate outcome. Who you played with before is irrelevant once you hit the ice and even being teammates doesn't erase past discretions (Matt Greene's pummeling of Paukovitch).

They don't have the same eligibility rules in Canada. In fact, Jared Aulin who played in the NHL for the LA Kings is now playing for the University of Calgary.

Sounds encouraging for sure. One thing is for certain, Gergen had better keep his head up when he plays the Sioux next season.

Two nights ago the TSN analysts had a rookie of the year debate and they all agreed that Toews would be the hands down winner were it not for the injuries. They stated that there are plenty of stars in this years crop but that when Johnny is in the lineup he has demonstrated that he is a Superstar.
