What's your point? We have 6 months of offseason coming up in just 7 short days. Mocking Lucia, Eaves, and Gwozdecky is a primary offseason sport. And its way easier than golf.

OK, OK, OK. I did the math. So, if we can just win two more games, [drum roll please] we'll be #1 in the Pairwise.

That's a really poorly written, poorly researched article. My daughter edits a high school paper that does better fact checking. NOBODY was ejected on November 10. Good grief. Its not that hard, people. Google is a wonderful thing. http://collegehockeystats.net/0708/boxes/mndkwis1.n10

For anyone still working on flights, a tip - look into flying into Colorado Springs. On nwa.com: $1000 MSP to DEN. $375 to COS. I can drive an hour for $600.

Because the shot counter at the Ralph is on crack. (According to Jamie Russell, anyway.)

Being parochial here, but I'd suggest going to the Tickets For Sale section of this forum. http://forum.siouxsports.com/index.php?showforum=14

Clearly, Badger fans weren't smart enough to draw the inference there ... But seriously, coins are da@@ dangerous. I'd be livid if it were someone near me.

Tonight marks an 8-game winning streak in NCAA Regionals: * Beanpot in 2005 (BC, BU) * Ralph in '06 (MI, HC) * The Can in 2007 (MI, MN) -- the Sioux are unbeaten all time at the pepsi center * Madison, 2008 Pretty awesome string.

I think the key was that 1 minute into the 3rd period I put my white Sioux jersey on. I was pretty angry about the effort through 40 minutes. That's not the way to play. That's not the way to end the season. We were better than that, but it took 40:01 to get things in motion. I just refused to believe we weren't better than Wisconsin. By the time the puck dropped in OT, I could have accepted either outcome, because the guys played with pride and heart the last 20 minutes (and the 2 minutes of OT). You can't control the bounces of the puck, but you can control your effort and how hard you go after it. ========================================= As to game analysis, one thing that's impossible to see on TV (or radio!) is lines. Sounded like (looked like) Eaves was burning his top guys, while we rolled 4 lines, more or less, through 2 periods. Their best guys took some long LONG shifts, and paid for it late in the game. Our guys definitely were quicker in the last period.

Come On SIOUX!!! You are on the road - now PLAY LIKE ITS SATURDAY!!!

He's almost a year older than Johnny!! Toews.

We could squeeze one more onto the Sioux bandwagon.

THe last 4 years, the number of early departures is even for UND vs MN. Long list for both. Lucia seems surprised. Hakstol doesn't.

Thank you for playing along.

Thanks Taz. Gophers do look gassed. But they have the high-pressure forecheck DOWN this last month.

Why did the Gophers put in Frazee?

The Arrogant Ones are about to start the 3rd Period vs. The Arrogant Ones. 2-1 Arrogance leads.

Like heck. How do explain Shepherd, Shepherd, and their buddy reffing the Miami vs AFA game? Winner of which plays who ...____? CLEARLY The Shep Crew forced the lesser team to win game 1. [/satire off]

Muse looks awful. But its BC 2-1 late in the second.

If Wisconsin is really that bad, it should be an easy game tomorrow.

It would be 1-1 if not for a boneheaded play by Fischer (on BC's first goal).

6-2 1 minute left

4 minutes in and Clarkson is 2 goals better than the Sioux were last year in the opener vs Michigan. 0-0

"... hauled down in OT, no call ..." Sounds all too familiar.

ESPNU definitely sent the #1 broadcast team to the AFA vs Miami game. Like both guys.
