Even up! Puck stuck in Prpich's gear. Waters jabs his stick at Prpich a couple times and Prpich gives him a right cross. Both boys go to the bin.

Now 5x4

Big save by Lammy on a hard one timer!!

Porter blocks pass and clears the zone!

Good work by the Sioux and they clear the zone. Still 4x3

Harvard works hard, Stafford takes a tackling penalty to keep Frasier from walking out front. Sioux down 1 for most of 2 minutes.

Harvard boy runs Fabian from behind after the whistle. Kaip enjoys the excuse to mix it up a bit and both players go with coincidental roughing minors. 4x4

Stafford blew by Harvard D, cut to the net but the puck rolled off his stick to the goalie.

Zajac and Watkins combine for a voice raising opportunity.

Sioux had an open opportunity but missed. Booth says Spirko would have had the best opportunity of the night had he shot from 10 feet out but instead tried to be too cute. Passed instead of shot.

Every good team wants to play at home for their holiday tournaments. Few wish to travel. No one wants to play conference opponents. The list of options grows thin. Harvard is hardly on the level of Union. They are a very quality opponent.

5 minutes into second period, not much of note going on.

Oops, now the Sioux get 7 to 6 SOG. Dane Jackson intermission interview. 11 years in the pros, about 50 big league games. Coached in the AHL last couple years. Fondest memory is scoring 4 goals at Old Mariucci to beat the Gophers. Now lives in NY. Used to play with Hak. Says Hak gets more of a kick out of winning now as a coach than he did as a player. Jackson is the opposite. Said he might have been able to play in the minors a couple more years, but the Kings said they valued him as a player and wanted to keep him in the org as a coach, so he decided to do it. Another former Sioux valued for their coaching potential.

Both teams with 6 shots in the period. Just a few seconds left. ....... period over.

Duncan misses a chance out front! Someone (Duncan?) hits the post! Porter in a little scrum at the whistle. 5 a side now.

Spirko, Stafford, Zajac, Duncan and Porter are out for the PP. No D. Prpich, Kozek, Miller, Spirko, Radke out for the second unit. Spirko went home to Slovakia over Christmas and got engaged the booth says. Sweet Home Alabama comes over the PA. SKYNYRD ROCKS!

McAfferty trips Stafford. Sioux on the PP.

Sioux pk doing a great job of keeping Harvard from the net. Now just 7 seconds left on the penalty. Fabian getting accolades for his all-around play.

Jones off for elbowing or high sticking. According to the booth it could have been either.

Now Alexander and Marvin out together.

Lotyz says Radke got away with a crosscheck in the back before the whistle.

Kaip was off for tripping but back on the ice now. Stafford Miller Spirko on a line together. I think I had the wrong earlier. Will correct....

Alexander out for the first time.

Quit obsessing about Toews, would ya?

Marvin and Radke out together.
