CC has been a tough out for a lot of teams this year. They beat BC, tied UMD and SCSU, and lost by a goal to WMich. They will lose more than they win, but they can put it together at times. The difference between the 1st and 2-3rd periods last night was an illustration. We clearly outplayed them in P1; entirely different story the rest of the way. Need a few bounces tonight. And more discipline.

Yeah, the real point with games like this against an unranked opponent is where we would be if we lost. Avoid that.

Goalies have no business scoring goals. They get enough attention as it is.

They were supposed to say "That was most definitely NOT a penalty, not even close."

Most would probably disagree, but among snipers, I'd take him over Bochenski.

How huge a find was Gaber?

boys are winning the scrums tonight

Week to week Day to day Hour to hour The goal is straight Deep and wide Break on through to the other side Sorry . . . had to.

I feel more or less that way too. A couple of goals by Omaha on both nights might have changed the dynamics completely.

Both games "so even," but Omaha could have run us out of the building? Sounds like you are saying the games have not been even but UND has been fortunate.

It's fortunate Omaha didn't score on the many chances they had early, because our team isn't well equipped for comebacks. So far, at least. Driscoll was big at that crucial time. I still think these boys have heart and are being well coached.

Driscoll still makes me nervous playing the puck out of the net.

Getting beat to pucks = stick penalties.

getting beat to a lot of pucks.

The sweep hurt, no question, but Cornell is in the top 20 and has a solid history, including arguably the best team in college hockey history. It's not Canisius or Niagara. This Hawks team works hard. I hope they get in the tourney and raise some hell.

With the Swede's solid performance last night, Wilbur is rumored to be considering retirement. So right now, all eyes are on Wilbur and Tom Brady.

Yes you do, and I feel lucky to have been around for both of them.

Europeans may play a more finesse brand of hockey, but they still have to win the battles on the wall and in front of the net. They must be better trained in technique?

Because you forgot you can remember?

Cool. Given your handle, I'd think you'd have Rube Bjorkman's sig also.

Much as it hurts to be the one to say this, we need to discuss proper punishment for farce's deceit.

IMO, Berry has done a superb job with this group so far this year.

no dramamine necessary then?

A classmate of mine froze a badger flattened out in spread eagle position and duck taped it to his back under his winter parka. Got in but got caught throwing it.

Having lived and worked in Wisconsin for over 30 years, I can tell you Wisconsin fans LOVE to have fun and party--in any sport. We moved to WI in 84 after having lived in warmer places for a number of years, and the minute WI hockey fans learned I was a Nodak and a hockey fan, they would go on about how much fun the rivalry was, and they almost always showed respect for the Sioux program. Intense, but in a fun way, which seems to be the way most Wiscovites enjoy their sports, which is partly why their hockey program's struggles in recent years and the sharp decline in attendance have been a shame.
