  1. Dumb question. Does RPI adjust and update as quickly as pairwise rankings do in college hockey. In other words, what is our " current" RPI based on -- recent games, beginning of the year or mid season?

  2. I have to go with Nash, he has experience playing against better competition and I think will be playing with a chip on his shoulder.

    Very nice backcourt options moving into next year: Anderson/Webb, Schuler/Hooker?, Antwi/Benton.

    And then hopefully our front court replacements will be an upgrade with Nash, Salmonson and Traylor in and Allard, Archer and Wilmer out. God bless those seniors for what they've done for us. Wilmer will be a great loss given his play of late.

    Finally, you'd think that the staff is making a concerted effort to get Traylor the help he needs in the classroom. I mean, if Beasley could do it, there's gotta be a way for anyone.

  3. When are CIT invitations sent out. It would be great to be at full strength and get a CIT bid against another team within the region waiting for one - perhaps the CIT would create a bidding war to host the game?

    I think I heard tomorrow (Sunday). Faison's been in communication already with CIT officials.

  4. Really sucks to lose that one but it was fun to finally watch this team at full strength. With nearly everyone coming back, next year is going to be a blast if we can stay a little healthier than this year.

    Absolutely!!!! And on top of that, all the "new" guys coming in -- Nash, Salmonson, Academically re-set Traylor and maybe our new freshman phenom Hooker could make it a special special year.

  5. And lets see how many people buy that jersey, I sure as hell am not!!

    Most of us old timers won't, but the new generations after new generations that won't know Fighting Sioux from Flickertails from the hole in their a$$ will presumably start buying them up in droves, as new traditions evolve and as we turn to dust in our graves. The University is bigger than us; it will live on with or without us. And soon our curmudgeonly opposition to the new status quo will be looked upon by our whippersnapper replacements as a quaint portal into the "ancient" past. Sad, I know -- but it's been happening for millenia.

  6. Good win, but more important is the prognosis for Anderson. If he's out for the next game, this win may turn out to be pyrrhic.

    I saw Aaron walking around pretty good after the game. I think he was sat more for precautionary reasons ...but who knows? Good thing is there's a few days for recovery before the tourney.

  7. True, but Denver is a private school, spends a lot of money on and has had relative success with basketball and doesn't have football to worry about. And while it isn't the closest option, getting to Denver by plane is pretty easy. They aren't perfect but I think them being a private and non-football school is a huge deal for the balance of the MVC and them being picked wouldn't surprise me.

    And market size plays a role too.

  8. I for one would welcome Minnesota......you gotta play them anyway you look at it and right now they are ripe for the picking and our ladies are playing great hockey.

    If we played 'em ten times, they might win nine.

    But not this game. Not tonight.

    Tonight, we skate with 'em.

    Tonight, we stay with 'em, and we shut them down because we can! -- Idalski channelling his inner Herb Brooks.
