WiSioux

three of St Cloud's "unbeaten" games were ties... once with us, twice with the Gophers... so that still says a lot.

good work

I'm gonna venture out and guess Watkins, for taking the major penalty... but other than that, I can't comment because I didn't hear the interview.

I'm predicting a win tomorrow night. Mainly because I was at the Saturday night game in GF and they won, and tomorrow I'll be able to listen to it on the radio. So I've got my fingers crossed and I'm hoping for the best

I got the link to this article from the Chicago website, so it obviously has an NHL, Chicago bias, but still a good read and great words about Toews. Toews showing future boss that he can lit it up, too

Did you just see him hit that kid? Not trying to start the whole physical vs positional defense debate again, but I've never seen Brian Lee level anyone like that before...

I thought the bench minor was on San Jose Yahoo Box Score

Dang... I'm not even gonna get to see the start of the game before I have to go babysit... what was I thinking agreeing to babysit?!? Oh well... I didn't see much of yesterday's game either, so hopefully it's the same results. Let's go Sioux!!! One of my friends mentioned it looked as though Phil had gotten a haircut when he was getting interviewed... anyone else notice this?

Apparently since Wisconsin is the home team, they feel like they should be able to play the late game no matter what. I think that's crap... they lost, they should be in the early game... but whatever. And yes... the championship game is being played before the 3rd place game.

I'm not sure about that one... but I do remember that last year Phil broke his helmet, or it was somehow broken, and so the second half the season he simply had a black one because it was "too expensive" (I believe is the reason I heard) to get a new paint job.

I saw this article in the Madison newspaper yesterday and thought it was pretty cool. It would be neat to see pictures of our goalie's helmets and hear the stories behind them as well. Masking No Fear You can just read the article, if you want to see the pictures, click on "Virtual newspaper edition available" at the top of the page and then in the window that pops up click on "proceed to requested story"

Being that we are not only playing an away series, but it's also in Colorado (elevation, time difference) if our players did come back on Fri/Sat would we even play them? I wouldn't think so... However, if USA continues as is, and comes home early... then it's a different situation

Any word if it's a serious injury like he won't be on the team... or if it is something that he can play through?

Bishop Discuss Decision Was this a difficult decision or did you maybe have an idea this was coming? Bishop: It definitely wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision. I'd say it was building. But leaving a school like North Dakota... it's the toughest decision I've ever had to make in my life.

According to Brad's blog he will search for another school. Good luck in the future Hunter!

Although he didn't get to play that much here... yet, I too hope that he returns in the fall. As with everyone else, the little that I did see him play, he definitly looked good. Hockey is these guys lives and if he thinks that he needs more time to develop and that this will help him in the long run... then I'm all for it! Good luck Hunter

From what I can gather, the pilot only had his private pilot's license. Which is the very first one that you get. The poor weather conditions made flying instrument conditions... meaning that to be flying in it, you should have had an instrument rating, which he did not. The clouds were at 200 feet and visbility was only 1 mile. Not to try and make any conclusions, but seems like it would be very easy for them to have gotten disoriented in a cloud and not known where they were at.

I'll be at both games, down on the glass by the penalty boxes. Hopefully we play well and get some much needed wins! With Toews gone (although he hasn't done much recently, as far as scorecard wise) it'll be time to see who will step up. Obviously I think Duncan will have a great weekend, he just might becoming my new favorite player. I'd like to see either Kozek or Watkins step up and put some pucks in the net... seems like they are about due

Not trying to make the situation seem less worse than it is, or change the topic at all... but it's probably a good thing that Kessel went pro this past offseason. I don't know NCAA rules that well, but it seems to me that U of M wouldn't be able to, or wouldn't pay for, help with medical bills... but it seems like Boston might. I know with the GB Packers a few years ago the punter had testicular cancer and they paid for all his treatment. So hopefully Boston will do something similar and he can get the best medical attention possible.

I asked the guy Sat night what the Friday ones went for. I believe he said $925 (Toews) and $800 (Duncan)

Born in Cheyenne, WY. Moved to Madison, WI when I was like 2. Going to school up here at UND

I think that Ryan Bakken says it very well... Mediocre "Tonight was a microcosm of their season _ spotty goaltending, idiotic penalties, lack of scoring from the big guns and Ryan Duncan being the star of the team."

Anyone know who the recruit on the bench during warmups last night was? About the same height as Eades, short brown hair... I've got a picture, but I've got to figure out how to get it on here first
