THAT should kill off any momentum that Wisco got from Connelly's heroics. Keep the pressure on guys, 20+ minutes to go yet.

You need to put the green-colored glasses back on All in all, a good start. And as our period ends, Mankato takes a 2-1 lead on a PP.

He tried to throw a check near the boards, skate turned when it hit a mav skate, lost his edge, shoulder hit boards, then a hard side impact for his head onto the boards... An odd play. As a total layman, I have no idea whether its likely to be serious.

... my fightingsioux.com audio feed is working ... End of 2 in Houghton SCSU 3, Tech 1.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So listen to the Sioux broadcast

I like hearing Hennessey say we're physical - taking the body is typically a good sign for our jump... Another major in Mpls - this time the Mavs Stewart (during the major). MN now on a major PP, still 0-0.

Nice start in Minneapolis - Bostrom ejected for CFB. Mavs on the major PP.

Vandevelde for Hobey.

Hockey teams take on the character of their best players. That's a great leading indicator for the Sioux this year...

Once we get past this slow start, I think this year's Sioux hockey team will be something special.

I don't think Tech is all THAT bad - we really have jump, creativity, and chemistry tonight. Excellent statement game.

Bit of both.

I'm not worried about our power play. Its the PK that has me worried. We're giving up almost a shot per power play. It has to get better.

Congrats NDSU on an excellent win, and a phenomenal fan turnout. I found myself wondering what the attendance would be if the Sioux played the Bison at the Metrodome...

I remember doing it in the 77-81 years in the student section. Can't say as to the years before then ...

Actually, they are electrical. But they need a nuclear reaction to generate the 1.21 gigawatts...

It was totally disgusting. I distinctly remember yelling "we can't lose to a bunch of g** d*** surfers" at the top of my lungs. Not very Christmasy of me. 1986-87 was a year that we started with some big questions. Goaltending for one. Belfour was not the most-highly touted recruit ever, at the time, but was a find if there ever was one. (I'd be interested in the story of how he got to UND if anyone knows it.) Another question mark was the tragic loss of a first-round draft choice in the summer time, following the death of Bemidji's George Pelawa. I only ever saw him on TV at the MN state high school tournament. While he was just about the fastest and biggest guy on skates there, what I was impressed with was his hands and his agility (including several times when he could have laid out a smaller guy but chose not to). RIP. Another question mark was the return of Tony Hrkac. He'd scored 54 points 2 years earlier but had left for the Canadian National Team (National Junior Team?) and was returning. We knew he was talented and great puck skills, but the open questions were commitment and chemistry.

BU and UAA tied after 2.

Under-rated! [clap clap clapclapclap]

UND can win, even when the game is played under Campion Rules.

To their credit, most of the crew at GPL says it was homer reffing ...
