Sioux sloppy around their own goal. They need to clean that up.

Gothberg challenged early.

GAME ON!

1-1 SCSU Miami, Miami used five forwards on the power play.

1-0 SCSU over Miami in first, PP

For those in the Fergus Falls area, it appears the game will be on Charter Communications, channel 827 HD

By the way, UMD released some more tickets for sale today. Singles are available in a number of areas. More than singles are available high on the ends.

I think that you missed being named High School Queen with TJ Oshie as the King!

Part of it is on their defensemen as well. At least two of the goals came about because Sioux players shot it in right off of Miami defenders sticks. Their defense was pathetic at clearing the puck, protecting the front of the net, and communicating with their goalie. Several times Miami defensemen took their own goalie out of the play. Of course, a couple of times the goalies took themselves out of the play.

Cloaking device engaged!

Goon, Your blog states UND and UNO are tied for second. Some of us more positive types would like to differ with you. UND owns second place in the NCHC all by themselves, three points ahead of UNO.

Canada should have had a lot more penalties period, just like against the U.S. It really isn't necessary to do all of the head shots and other crap that Canada does. It really takes away from the game itself.

Actually, that happened just a couple of years ago. It might have been against Cornell. The Sioux chased a number of highly ranked starting goalies that year. I recall at least one case where the starter went back in late in the game. Edit: This game was actually during the 2008-2009 on Thanksgiving weekend. It was the Friday night game and Cornell came in on a hot streak and got pummeled that Friday night game. Something like 7-1 or 7-2. I also seem to recall a time when the Gwoz did it as well.

Actually, he was simply trying to build his post count at the time, just saying anything at all. Sooner or later something he said at that time had a chance to eventually look almost right.

Tickets are sold.

Tickets are row I (as in eye, not one). These are my season tickets, which I have had since The Ralph opened. I have a conflict for that evening.

Bump - Tickets are still available. Send a PM or email to bkjcjr@yahoo.com.

Mr. and Mrs. Siouxman will be there.

The notes say that home games at other arenas are included. So yes, the outdoor game is in and possibly the Great Western Beanpot Tournament as well.

We go whether or not the Sioux make it. Of course, we haven't had to face that for a long time. We go to all of the games (even a third place game) and stay for the whole tournament. So we can do Hoggsbreath no matter what.

Bought our tournament tickets tonight. Can't believe the season is already getting to the point where the tournament isn't that far away.

Two tickets for sale for the Friday Feb 7th game against Nebraska Omaha. These are in Section 302 on the end where the Sioux shoot twice. Seats are located about even with the faceoff dot inside the zone. Tickets are $25 each.

I was being Fighting Sioux nice and didn't mention any of that.

Passion is defined as the Fighting Sioux fan from Fort Worth, Texas that missed his first home Sioux game in two years just recently. Brad wrote about him in one of his stories from Denver. The guy did make it to Denver.

I was there and while Sioux fans outnumbered Gopher fans, it wasn't by much and neither team had a total fan base in attendance worth bragging about. You could sit anywhere you wanted as total attendance was maybe 1000-1500 per game. I will say that the Gophers clearly sent their most friendly and well behaved fans to Grand Rapids. Had a good time talking to quite a few of them in the numerous establishments before and after the games.
