I think a wise man once said "the next goal is huge"

Oh boy. BC with a breakaway shortie.

Dang your fast . . .

Sioux on PP - tripping.

Sioux at full stregth . . . momentum on BC's side . . .

Let's get this thing killed. I don't feel the vibe for the Sioux . . . yet. Time to crack a beverage . . . maybe that'll help.

BC going on PP

Sioux looking pretty good. Let's get that first goal. Ya gotta love "Tavies" . . .

You guys are crazy. The Sioux are playing the Badgers right now in the WCHA semi-final on FCS Central. Wooger said tonight's game, UMTC vs SCSU should be interesting - but I don't think it matters much to the Gophs . . . Anyways . . . I'll be sitting in the same chair wearing the same (washed) clothes that I've worn since the above game. LETS GO SIOUX!!!

In Minneapolis, when the Vikes are on a Sunday night game on ESPN, the game is also aired on the ABC station, KSTP. The same thing could happen in GF, with WDAZ getting the feed from ESPN.

To me, college hockey is vastly turning into a college basketball scenerio - and then some. The top recruits go to the top schools, maybe play two years and are gone. The creme de la creme are starting to skip college and go straight to the pros (ie LaBron, KG). I think the mid-level schools will routinely be pulling "George Mason's" because most of their players stay 3-4 years and they get experience and leadership working together, while the top schools will be getting knocked off more and more. Just my $0.02 .. .

Ya gotta wonder why the NCAA pushes the Frozen Four back a week from basketball's Final Four. They're two different TV audiences and fan bases. I imagine they're hoping for additional press? Let it be next Thursday already . . . drop the puck.

Just wait 'til next week . . .

Beautiful. This is why college hockey fans' have such a passion for the game.

Yeah, but maybe the guy upstairs will punish you . . . and send you back as 1) if he's ticked, a Gopher hockey player or 2) extremely ticked, a Gopher hockey fan

Anyone have picks of Prp's salute at the end of the HC win (after he came back out on the ice)?

Ahhh . . . I always loved that one I'm cheering for the Gophs tonite to beat SCSU on FSN North. 6-5 SCSU after two - should be an interesting end to the game but, even if the Gophs lose, I don't think the game will matter much to them as they're looking towards the bigger prize this year . . .

Yah know . . . the divorce rate in this country is like 50% or something . . .

"YES! What a bunch of overrated pre-madonnas. Look at 'em now! Swa-eet!" "I wonder what excuse the team and tDon will come with now?" - Upper Deck (talking in third person for the media) after watching the Gophs lose a heartbreaker Friday night to Holy Cross.

Thanks Uncle Rico. "Geez," you take nice pictures. The salute is my background on the laptop. You didn't happen to take any shots of Prp's last salute did ya?

Here's a link to a free play of the song. Very cool for an intro . . . http://webjay.org/iteminfo/310882/e8aad52c...d25d60f50f72f54

I'm with you. I lived in the Mpls for 10 years after growing up in ND. My dislike for the Gophs grew each year via the local media and having friends that are Gopher hockey fans. The Gophs, Badgers and Sioux are huge rivals - for both the players - and the fans. Look at GPL, there's a "who to cheer for now" thread with most cheering against either WI or ND, and many cheering for Hockey East. I have to honestly admit, I wouldn't be cheering for the Gophs had they won and probably won't cheer for the Badgers if the Sioux should fall. I really don't care to see either of them win - and benefit from winning. My hats off to Sagard and other posters as I truly respect your attitude.

I just laugh - think what may happen to him if he gets to the NHL trying to pull this stuff . . .

Prp's definitely been one of my favorite Sioux hockey players. Gotta love his playing style, heart and of course, the antagonizing and the Thanks for four great years - and nothing but the best for ya!

That ad makes FSSN ads look like Academy nomminies . . . but hey, it pays the bills for 'em I particularly enjoyed the slight delay with the audio, providing a Japanese-esque subtitle thing going on.
