Section 116 Row I. PM me. $70 each. 9 rows behind the Sioux bench.

Shelly is worth the trip, but make sure your wallet is full before you go there. I think the drinks are cheaper in the MPLS airport than at the Bear's Den...

No thanks, just finished mine...

Yeah, right, like you have friends...oh wait...those are my seats, too!

I love that pic!!!!!!

MafiaMan, what day are you coming up? I don't know if the Moon has a shuttle or not. Personally, I think the better shuttle locations are Rumor's, Whitey's, Dagwood's. Southgate has been pretty late to the game recently if they even have a bus show up at all. Personally, I was thinking about starting at Suite 49 about noon before going to cheer the Crusaders on...Then stopping back at the Suite for one or two between games. I don't know if a person is going to be able to buy a beer in the Ralph or not. Suite 49 charged me $10 for parking one night, but gave me a $10 coupon. I imagine that might change for the Regionals as to what they do.

Okay, but seriously folks. Anyone know where I can get a Holy Cross jersey by Friday?

Let me represent the SS.com message board in apologizing for the "behavior" of a few.

Direct me to proof that he was whining? You really think that he doesn't want to get the extra rest into his team before playing the winner of the UND/Michigan game the next night? I believe it is to the gophers (or the #1 seed in any case) who WANT the early game. Check the schedule. The #1 seeds all play the early game. I don't think anyone was whining about having to play the early game.

Yes, I think a tip-in goal is the defensemen's responsibility. In a 15 goal game, no one is playing much defense. St. Cloud outshot the Sioux 40-29. 15-8 in the 3rd period. It was 5-2 at the end of 2, and their 3rd goal isn't something I would wish on any goaltender...bounces off the glass, darn near against your back, and into the goal...an odd goal nonetheless. What concerns me is how the Sioux laid back in the 3rd trying to hold a lead. Granted, they got it done, but I don't think they are going to hold it like that against a MN, Mich, BU or BC in a national tournament. I can't help but think that even though they didn't show it on the ice, St. Cloud had to have been mentally and emotionally drained from Friday night. I don't think anyone is going to be able to coast through this tournament. I give odds to a team like Wisco, if they can start playing again like the did at the beginning of the year. Or even a BU who got embarrassed by none other than my favorite team last year. MN might have a chance if the FF weekend was a fluke for them. I think they might build back some confidence playing against Holy Cross, however. I do think the Sioux have made some great strides this year, and they are capable of beating anyone, but I don't think that they've beat a good team playing at their best, either. I think the Wisco game is about the best I've seen a team play against them when the Sioux have won. Just my thoughts: Lucia loses both games on purpose in the FF so that he doesn't have to play Bemidji. Disclaimer: These are my thoughts, and my thoughts, only. I'll be looking for 4 more wins this year just like any good Sioux fan!

The price is going up! I probably won't know until game time if I have an extra ticket or not. Sorry, man...

I hate this when someone uses this on me, so I'll use it here... "If my uncle had tits, he'd be my aunt!"

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR And you really expect to get an extra ticket? You'd better look to your Bison compatriots after that remark!

Wasn't there discussion on this board about how Oshie can't skate? I guess I'm no expert, but I think the kid is hard to get off his skates, and when he does, he's back up quicker than you can say "underrated" Loved Woog's comment about how that line has six skates moving all the time... GO SIOUX!

I agree! If UND can show up, I think they can win the NC. If not, it'll be a flat disappointing game that they lose in either the Regionals or FF. I just hope they show up. One think I like about playing SCSU tonight is that they will be playing their 6th game in 9 days, but I also thought that I saw that their 4th line was still getting shifts late in the game last night. Could mean that they will be a bit better rested than the Sioux might expect. The scary part is that MN honestly isn't going to lose many games this year, and I hope Fri's game wasn't the last they needed to get out of their system. It truly is a meaningless game in terms of the goal of winning the NC for them. I hope they learned nothing from last night's loss! They are a very scary team.

Nope.

I'd be surprised if anyone from St. Cloud has any gas left inn the tank tomorrow night. There has yet to be a team to win the tourney after playing the Thur game. Let's hope that trend continues.

I believe we are rendering this thread quite useless...

Mmmmmm, juggggiiieeeeeezzzzzz

You ARE a brave man, Sprig!

Keep up with the times, MafiaMan! What's with the little blue avatar, anyway?

For some reason, the color purple comes to mind... Jim, you're not gonna ban me are you?
