  1. I was also at the Hobey Ceremoney (in that section in the end by the band) and I am SOOOO glad that I decided to go. I knew that the band would be there because my friend is in the band and told me... so I had hope, but in all reality I expected Ehn to win it because of the whole Air Force thing... that however did not stop my friends and I from cheering wildly when Duncan was introduced and as often as we could throughout the ceremony. I loved the story that Duncan's dad told about him.... about how he fell on the ice and basically his dad wouldn't let him get off the ice because he had heard that you have to get them back on the ice right away. It is too bad that his mother wasn't present... I later read that she is out of the country (out of town?) so that is why she wasn't there. It would have also been cool if our team had been present just to see their reactions. Overall, it was an amazing experience! The roar of the crowd gave me chills... I can't imagine how Duncan was able to give a speech... Congrats Duncan!!!! You deserve it!

    I don't think I like the way that sounds... oh well.... guess I shouldn't be shocked...
  4. Haha... I was kinda wondering if I had missed a BC goal somewhere along the line... But it was a great article. I was trying to explain to my Aunt the difference between the two games and all I could explain to her was that the second game was so much faster. Maybe I'll pass this along to her...

    Here are my arguments for why he should stay: 1. He's only 18, he'll be 19 soon... other than the fact that he is just flat out young, what's he gonna do after practice when all his teammates go home to families or out to the bars... who's he gonna hang out with? 2. Team Canada will certainly need a captain for the World Juniors this year.... by the way, where are they? Who can turn down the possibility of a third gold medal? 3. Chicago isn't that good.... why not stay with a competitive team and go to another Frozen Four (fingers crossed) With that said.... I realize that playing in the NHL is what these guys have been dreaming about since the day they first started playing hockey, if not earlier. And that the money is appealing... and he'll probably sign... But staying here isn't such a bad option either
  6. No info yet on fightingsioux.com. If it is tomorrow as it traditionally has been it will be very short notice. Anyone think that because the University is closed today for Easter Break it won't be tomorrow and will be later in the week/next week?
  7. Gotta love the quotes in today's Herald: A Slam Dunc Gotta love the little guys too But maybe that's because I'm short...
  8. ok, Siouxforeverbaby here. Our boys did not play as well as they good have. I felt so bad. I don't feel the loss was Phil's fault though. Yes, he was out of position sometimes forcing him to make some showy saves, but where the h-e-double hockey sticks was the defense? Overall, tough loss but life goes on.
  9. hey, its siouxforeverbaby posting as WiSioux cause I am too lazy to switch users right now. To Ports: Thanks for the awesome four years. You were easily one of my favorite players to watch. No matter what you stuck with it and gritted it out. Thanks. To Scottie: I loved it when you were on the ice, Thank you for sticking with the team and being you. To Fabs: I can't say enough about you. I will certianly miss seeing you both on the ice and walking around the Union on your crutches when they dropped you off and left last year. Thanks all of you for a great time, you are forever a part of the Fighting Sioux family.
  10. Not that I think facebook has anything to do with if they are leaving or not... but Oshie hasn't had a facebook profile since the Judy's incident...
  11. The entire team was there last year as well... I believe those not dressed hang out behind the band in the Sioux section during the games
  12. Not sure where to put this... but it is pretty funny Zamboni driver skates by drunken driving law
  13. Did we try that last year with Travis and Darcy? Look how well that turned out.... and is David a senior or only a junior this year?
  14. If you're that close why not just go to St. Louis? Just my bit of advice... haha
  15. According to the press release on fightingsioux.com "Children are allowed in Al Hrabosky
  16. Just to play devils advocate.... I did see Hamilton eating lunch with Duncan, Porter, and Kozek on Thursday this week.... he appeared to also be growing a playoff beard. Not saying that the boys aren't allowed to have non-hockey friends, but just pointing out that if for some reason he is no longer on the team he's still hanging out with them
  17. Not exactly Sioux Name related... but I'm sure that it will not be seen in a positive light by many people... Eagle Stolen from UND American Indian Center
  18. Sounds like fun... we'll for sure have to stop by!!! Watch for a large group of tired looking college students... haha!
  19. Here is a pretty entertaining story about some dedicated Sioux fans. Jordan, the guy in the video, is the former Student Body president... I believe it would be two years ago, three once the new pair takes office. Sue Robinson You can either read the article or click on the video link, it's the exact same except with picture and someone reading to you I've seen her at football games, and hear she might be making her way to St. Louis!
  20. haha... that is pretty funny!
  21. Isn't it just like Duncan to give the credit away, even after being named part of the Hobey Hat Trick... Hobey Hat Trick Said Duncan, "It's obviously a tremendous honor for me. It's a surprise, actually. I just was honored just to be in the top 10 or even be mentioned in the same sentence as the guys who've won the Hobey Baker. The way I see it, it's just a reflection of our team. I have to give most of the credit to my teammates. They helped me get to this point, and I share this acknowledgement with them."
  22. I saw that two or three times... great story! I loved the part where after every game he would go to the opposing team's locker room just to shake their hands... I thought that was cool
  23. That's one of the best stories that I have ever heard!!! I'm so excited to hear that you are coming to the Frozen Four this year... prepare to be amazed!!! I hope that you find that all Sioux fans, and college hockey fans in general, are amazing and nice as I have found. Hopefully I'll get the chance to meet ya too!!!
