    This women's game has all the makings of OT, which would push the selection show back or a new network.....

    ESPN:  It’s just hockey…nobody’s watching anyway.

    But I see that as a problem. Why not ramp it up to get a chance to play them and win another trophy along your way to the ultimate goal.  How we became a team that can only get up for certain games goes against everything Sioux hockey is/was about.  Bring it every day.  When we are constantly having to use the excuse that we had too many passengers, we have failed that legacy.

    Agreed…maybe it’s not a fair comparison but BC had the 1 locked up for a while and they just keep bringing it every game.  It’s been a while since we’ve had the grit of a team that constantly competes and refuses to lose.

    Yeah, it's definitely time to get the regionals back on campus.  I know Mafia enjoyed his time at Yost Arena back in the day.(1998)

    I'm not complaining about the rink, it'll host the regional just fine, with plenty of tickets to spare.

    I'm more on edge that the NCAA/coaches are fine with letting regionals get played in front of crowds that would make a youth t ball team blush.

    *Also on edge that the boys had great seats for Sam Hunt....sigh...

    And that’s a credit to UNO and how they played.  Take the middleman out of the equation and make it UND’s performance vs Denver’s?  Frankly, I’m glad I didn’t have to witness a 4 pm seminal with UND losing to the Pioneers 8 or 9 to 1.  

    C'mon Mafia...you know that wouldn't have happened.  Somehow we're always able to ramp it up for the Pios.

    This'll be an interesting experiment.  Can you go from playing like hell to playing championship level hockey, competing all over the ice, in one week?  Can you flip a switch and become great again?  History and logic say no, but it's hockey so never say never.

    How do we get that team that creamed DU and held them to four goals on the weekend?

    Very weird. I’m confident both of Denver’s fans will be there.

    One of them is scheduled to work at the Gas and Sip that day.

    I'm planning to go to the Maryland Heights regional if UND lands there.  What's the best way to get tix, any advice?

    Well you can pay Ticketmaster for the privelege of their wonderful service.  I'm betting you would be able to walk right up and get them at the box office.  Plus, there's always scalpers if you don't mind haggling a little.

    Denver never appeared to be in any sort of danger - like at all.  Contrast that to UND getting outworked in all phases of the game a day earlier.  

    Cool that some of the boys got home in time for the Sam Hunt concert though.  That worked out nicely. 

    This is more what I imagined the ride back to GF would have been like...

    Sounds like it's as mismanaged as a rink could be. Hopefully the ACHA games and regional help balance the books after erroneously not charging sales tax for an extended period of time.

    Hope they pay their electric bill this month…boys will be skating in the dark.

    Connelly (USCHO) & Schlossman have the same projected brackets. I would agree with these. I think you can almost lock them in.

    Anybody planning on making the trip to Maryland Heights?

    That's quite a haul down there...guessing attendance will not be great even in a 2,500 seat arena.

  12. Looks like BC put everyone on notice last night with a 6-2 crushing of BU.  They had the top seed locked up; pretty much playing for pride against a rival and they stomped the daylights out of the Terriers.  That seems like a pretty good way to go into the NCAA's.

    An Eastern blowhard that thinks that regionals should forever stay neutral, as it benefits eastern schools most.

    That’s the answer I was looking for, thanks!
