farce poobah

I have seats nearby behind the player benches on Friday PM. I'm thinking that after a dive .... "Robbie Earl Diving School is NOW in Session" With diving flags on the perimeter .... Needs spice ... anybody improve?

With all that's happened, we're only down 3 ...

Many comments from Sioux announcers about how uncomfortable UND looks. "Tight" Down 5, 12:21, Sioux ball.

St Cloud up 3-1 20 seconds left, on the major PP

Sertich takes a MAJOR with 2:30 left. (WTF is he thinking?) 3-1 St Cloud. WOW!

SCSU up 3-1 with a couple minutes left

I just hope nobody gets injured ...

A SCSU win probably puts UND ahead of CC in the PWR ...

Oh, and I just thought of one other scenario that comes in to play. IF UMD were to become a TUC, that adds 4 wins to the Sioux record vs TUC's and (without checking the numbers) might move UND to a #1 seed ...

Right!

Yes its safe to buy tickets for the West Regional. I think its theoretically possible for UND not to make it still, but some really weird stuff would have to happen now.

The surviving 5 teams are seeded according to how they finished the regular season. If UMD holds on, then it looks like this: Thursday '#9 UMD vs #5/6 SCSU/CC Friday semi 2pm: #3 WI vs #4 UND Friday semi 7pm: #1 MN vs Thursday winner IF DU comes back to win, Thursday is UND vs SCSU/CC Friday 2: DU vs WI Friday is MN vs Thursday winner.

Bruce Ciskie, UMD radio "listen to the roar of that crowd! as the second period comes to a close!" 4-1 Dogs.

Campion changed it from the 3rd to the 2nd to give DU more time to catch up .

Love those long sustained standing ovations after a job well done. Great work Sioux!!!

And if there's an upset in the CCHA (Northern Michigan, UAF), if Maine/UNH wins HEA and/or if there's upsets in the ECACHL.

The only other scenario I worry about is losing twice at the WCHA final five, especially if one of those losses were against (#45-ranked) UMD. I am not so sure we're in yet.

I was there too (drove back to the Cities after the game to work on Monday AM). That night, the Sioux played with a kind of vengeance and intensity that was off the scale (66 shots on goal, and they kept at it for the full 60 minutes) even by their standards. I'd like nothing better than to see tonight's Sioux Bring It Hard for a full 60. Win or lose, play the game with desperation. There may not be a tomorrow.

I didn't realize Oshie had moved into such elite company, with his 8th GWG of the season, he ties - Bryan Lundbohm - Bob Joyce - Phil Sykes Pretty dang good. http://www.fightingsioux.com/sports/mhocke...RELEASE_ID=4716

This is deja vu ALL over again. Friday March 12, 1999, Mankato wins 3-2 in OT. Saturday, Sioux even it up.
