I know this is more of a rhetorical question because we all know his whole existence revolves around being an antagonist, which is quite sad. What other reason would there be to continually go on a rivals thread to say how great your team is.

It seems like a lot of times we have Big time recruits in we don't play great, but I recall a few of them still committed because of the atmosphere and facility itself. I recall one mentioning the student section being packed for warmups. Let's hope that is the case this time.

Let's just say his prognostication skills have a little to be desired, but the stats he put forth didn't exactly scream out dominance by Duluth.

Getting outshot attempted 81 to 38 last year on Friday and 146 to 70 on the weekend is quite different than Saturday this year out attempting Duluth 62 to 46. Yes shots don't mean everything, but they give an overview of territorial advantage. Cam wasn't as lights out this year, but it doesn't mean they were great the year before. Remember, people were wanting Cam pulled because of 2 shorthanded goals that he gave up after we had a pretty good first half of the game, outshooting Duluth 24-14 after 2 periods, giving up only 2 shots in the first. They deflated a bit after the 2 short handed goals. Quite the contrast to his stretch of shutout hockey the year before. Regardless, I wasn't in the pull Cam camp.

I thought the one night that UND looked a lot better than they did the prior year when they swept Duluth but got outshot badly.

Yeah, don't know if they just kept selling longer than usual since there were so many people wanting to get in on it.

Sure, I'll let you know which number was yours right after they draw! Seriously, last year they said they couldn't determine the winner right away since there were so many entries, but then when I got to my car they said they already announced the winner.

He isn't the one saying how great Big Ten hockey is. Proof is in the pudding!

Would never bet you because you have proven that you are not a man of your word. By the way, how is that Fargo South dynasty you so foolishly predicted?

Only because I heard it on the news last night about the Bison playing in Cheney?

So the Bison catch them early next year when they are adjusting to new coaches and receivers. Do we know yet when we face them?

Either Tony Granato is planning on getting rid of a bunch of Eaves' recruits, or he is continuing Eaves' recruiting strategy of over recruiting. After two more commits, they are now up to 32 on their list. I hope Berry always leaves a little wiggle room for late bloomers like Poolman and LaDue or high end transfers.

If you look at the photo on StoneySioux's blog, I imagine Boeser saying something like "I'm back baby!" That, beyond the goal itself, created all the smiles. In George Costanza fashion, Wolanin probably responded "You're using my baby's now?"

Ohio State and Bemidji State were actually the other teams in that tournament.

Red River won 4-1.

You cannot make this statement with any credibility and be a fan of Minnesota gopher hockey... Period!

I read it that this is just the beginning for this kid, and wait until you get him North Dakota, but I like your interpretation better.

Denver also owns the tiebreaker against us.

If I were a parent, Bubba's down home personality would impress me more than the snake oil salesman approach of Fleck. I realize that might be irrelevant in most circumstances when competing with the higher level, but I think Bubba will get his fair share of players with his approach. Nevermind him finding guys like Santiago that nobody wanted.

U.S. under 18 National team leading Maine 4-1. Grant Mismash with a goal in that game.

WDAZ extra channel announced last night that they will have on Saturday's game.

Exactly.

So programs that are on the upswing and have potential for a National title would be recruiting players behind the scenes to join them because that will really put them over the top. The player wouldn't have to wait, so no problem going for a National Championship right away.
