No kidding!! The guy just mauled him!

TH running a little thin on material for the "extended" period break. Talking about the mini-blimp stuck in the roof. He cracks me up.

No kidding. CC opened up a can on the goofs last weekend and it was open ALL weekend on them. They pounded the goofs all weekend, skated circles around them.

EXACTLY!!! I would say Coach Hak probably had a word with the 3 blind mice before the game and reminded them they had wistles and they could remove them from their collective a$&es and start using them. And yet, there has still been some pretty wild checking, which helps us as well. Let's hope they don't mess it up and we lose THE Oshie or Big Joe.

We were waiting...........!!!!!!!!!!!

Were the Sioux on the PP for about 6 seconds when he scored? WOW!! He stepped out of the box and you could see the set-up right away. ANOTHER nice sniper shot!! I was completely off, I thought this onslaught (coach Blais pronounciation of course) was going to come last night. Glad to be wrong. I REALLY should have had that beer last night!! Could have kept us undefeated!! Way to screw up the season.

Wow!!! What a sniper shot! Looked like Stafford coming down the right side like that and taking high corner.

Vandevelde

OSHIE WITH THE HATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know what, come to think of it, last night I did NOT have the mandatory barley pop(s) before and during the game. Yup, put last night on me. Probably explains the flame out about Radke too.

This what we were hoping for all along! Glad to see him get his shot and make the best of it. He's playing like a man obsessed out there! Good for him!!

I leave for one beer break and, WHAMO THE Oshie nets #2!! Sorry I missed it, but dam good to see!!!

There's some hittin' going on out there tonight.

Sioux moving the puck around really well!!!

ANOTHER 5 - 3 for the Sioux!! Horrible penalty for the Techies.

The other nice thing is when the period is over you can make the flip back to TH from the Sioux launcher and listen to the radio broadcast. Man, this new Techies announcer has GOT to get his mic closer to his mouth, or move his seat out of the student section. Here we go! 3 MORE!!! Come on Forney, net your first tonight!!!

Welcome to the club, I paid last night too. It definitely wasn't there last night, but is tonight. Oh well, that's a beer and a plate of nachos at the bar. Well worth it to see the boys on the road, especially at the end of the earth in hoot town.

This is odd. I just went to open the radio feed for the pre-game, and there's a link to the VIDEO of the game on the SIOUX site. I'm going to feel like a real moron (not the first time) if this link was there last night and I gave $12 bucks to the engineering kids college. Anybody shed some light on this? I guess we'll see if it works when the game starts.

Agreed, it was a tough game, all around. The Techies came to play and we just didn't have our timing. Our guys just couldn't seem to click at the right time and had back puck luck and really bad bounces all night. I mentioned it last night, but after watching some of the game again, it was really noticable how out of wack out timing is right now. We had our guys bumping into each other all over the ice. Oshie and Vandevelde almost knocked each other out behind the Techie goal. That's just a sign of an early season and not have time for lines to develop together. The Sioux are amazing, but they are still human and it will take a while for them to all get on the same page. God help the rest of the WCHA when, not if, they do. But like the past few seasons, we start slow, finish strong at the right time. I'm not worried. LaPoint is off to a great start, he looks like he's playing at Soph. speed already. A little competition in the d-corps is a no lose for us. Wouldn't be surprise to see both LaPoint and Marto playing tonight. And I think Forney is a lock, hope he can make the most of his opportunity. It would be really great to have him be the surprise break out of the season and net 15 or so. Should be a helluva game tonight. AZSioux will be good and tuned by the time the game is over and ready for the wild nightlife, again. Ha!

It wasn't directed at me, someone else, I wouldn't have bothered if it was. I do agree with you that nobody, I don't care who's kid it is, gets on this team without having been the best on their team and one of the best in their league/conference/etc. That's Sioux hockey, always has been, always will be. I'm 110% for standing up for your teammates, not a problem at all. My frustration was with his low class cheap shots at the end of the game. I was watching him go from guy to guy cross checking them under the chin to try and either get a fight or draw blood and there was 8 seconds left in the game. That's just not our style. We'll play you tough, kick the crap out of you, bang you and your sister around in the corners, but not that crap. And you're right, the whole name/logo thing already had me in a $hitty mood, this was just more crap on the boots. I wanted to see Forney play anyway, I'm almost positive he'll get his chance now and hopefully the kid will light it up! See, already turned the corner.

Tough game. Techies played the game of their lives. Goalie stood on his head the entire game, unbelieveable saves every period. Sioux gave them a wild ride the last 5 minutes but just couldn't get a puck to drop. Couple different times we had the puck in the crease or on the doorstep of an open net and couldn't bang it home. Lots of bad bounces. Sioux not quite there with the lines. Lammy played a great game. Open netter to close things out. Oh, and Radke is now the whipping bitch for the year for cheap shots with 8 seconds left in the game. Lee is going to send him flowers on Monday.

Don't talk down to someone on this board, that's a cheap shot. Most of us here understand that all just monday morning quarterbacks talking to one another. There are a few real live experts (pcm, jim dahl) and you don't see them hacking on guys for giving their 2 cents. We get it, Coach Hakstol doesn't run right home to read our brilliant posts and make adjustments for the next game. But let guy have his opinion, he's on the same team.

We need some hack that's a Senior and still taking horrible penalties when we're behind? I hope you're not putting this $hitsack in the same category as someone who is a legitimate enforcer on our past teams? Look at some of other dmen who started off taking some bad calls and then MATURED, they LEARNED from their mistakes and UNDERSTOOD that those horrible penalties at the wrong point in the game cost their TEAM the win. Sure, Greene, Smaby, Commy all took some ugly penalities in their first year, year and a half. Then they figured out it was costing their TEAM wins, and they got smarter about how they stood up for their teammates and intimidated the other team. This guys a senior and still taking cheap shots like some dumb freshman right off the bus. Sorry, I guess the loss really has me chapped, but it was salt in the wound to see that at the end of the game. I don't think I'm alone in saying Mr. Radke's negatives out weigh his positives at this point.

Ditto. I never thought Lee deserved the abuse he took here and didn't want him to leave. Radke earned the hot poker up the keester tonight. I'm all for sticking with our guys who stick with the program for 4 years, but he let us down tonight with that crap. Cost us a goal with ANOTHER stupid penalty and made a fool of himself at the end of the game. I expect that kind of crap out of Mankato, not the Fighting Sioux.

Not sure if you were watching the game on web or listening, but what he did was absolutely bottom of the barrel cheap. He had his stick up under any Techie player he could find and he didn't care where the puck was on the ice. He was flat out looking to drop someone because we were losing. That ain't Sioux Hockey, that's bush league. Oshie plays with intensity and plays a great physical game. Radke couldn't lift his jock. Bench him, yesterday. And based on Hak's comments in the post game, I think it's a done deal.
