Or D) the lone UMD player is a certain goalie running punk who gets tripped up by one UND player and then landed on by both UND players during the goal celebration.

You must never have been to a series at UMD to hear their "Smallpox Blanket" and "We Stole Your Land" cheers.

So according to MafiaMan, this event is now an official alumni gathering function. (or did I get that wrong). This event has really come up in the world.

Clearly it must have been built prior to the concept of hot water in rest rooms hit Minneapolis. I will give them credit, they have made improvements. The new video screen was impressive. The ushers were much more friendly than experienced in early years of the tournament. The food quality has improved since year 1, but it is still very greatly overpriced and not much of it is worth eating. I was getting tired of watching skaters falling down all by themselves every time they tried to skate near the end boards. The ice conditions were not good on the ends. The middle seemed fine, but hockey uses the whole sheet of ice. They have lowered the building temperature significantly to help fix the ice, but only sell coffee at one concession stand and no hot chocolate at any of them. They will get my input again, not that it will help.

I had to go look it up. Michigan at 22. UND second, now at 15.

Hmm mn, come to think of it you may be right on that one.

I believe Denver owns the longest streak. It was mentioned at the Target Center.

I typed UMD and damn autocorrect changed it.

As of tonight I have lost all respect for the UMD program. Their actions are completely without class.

Bring WMU to Fargo. They do not look good today.

Excuse me, but I am from 10 miles west of there (Beulah) and I have known about UND hockey since October 1975 since I started at UND, which is now 40+ years ago. And so did my Mom, because I quit coming home for Thanksgiving and was heading back early at Christmas if there was a hockey game. See you at the Hogg in 50 minutes.

SSSHHHHHHH! Someone at the Target Center might be reading this and figure out they are doing something else wrong.

Not going to work. Once you are in the door, to leave and come back in you have to have a non-removable wrist band. So they can't leave after the first game and let someone else come in to watch the next game. The tickets cannot be rescanned (or maybe the correct terminology is they will not be rescanned).

The unsportsmanlike penalty was called very shortly after the goal was scored. It might have been due to taunting or something else he did toward UND players. Then the potential issue of too many men on the ice was raised. The play was reviewed and there were clearly 6 SCSU skaters plus a goalie on the ice. The goal was waived off due to too many men, but a minor penalty cannot be called based on a review. So while the goal was waived off, the officials could not penalize SCSU for too many men under the rules for reviews. They also could not take away the unsportsmanlike penalty either. So it became just a one man short power play instead of two men short.

Sorry, but you can't give more than 100%. It is impossible to give more than you have. It just means you weren't giving everything you had before.

Each game from here on the intensity must be at a season high.

There is still a lot of tunnel left, unfortunately.

Obviously they will keep Minnesota out of Fargo. That place is already sold out so they will send MN elsewhere to boost attendance, and ... oh, wait.....this is MN.....never mind.

Went to a T-Wolves game once, and that was enough. First, Target Center sold us tickets and then sold the same tickets to someone else. We got the seats unfortunately. It was three quarters of screwing around garbage basketball and then a fourth quarter of trying to be serious. Won't ever go again.

My impression last night was this team went out and got drunk after the Friday night win. They could not do the most basic things, like skate. Guys were falling down all over the place for no reason. UNO was not falling down so it couldn't have been the ice. Did someone screw up on skate sharpening? Possible. They couldn't make a decent pass, they couldn't catch a decent pass, etc. That is what makes me think hungover syndrome. And that falls on team leadership. What else could explain the drastic change in play from one night to the next?

Currently at 14 in pairwise, and that could drop yet tonight.

In this case it also speaks volumes to their season. They are for real. And Kalamazoo is a tough place to play. We were there last year.

PLEASE don't go there. I still have nightmares.

This is it. The boys lose this one, Fargo is likely a remote dream.

Wow. Shots 34-10 Haaarvard.
