Fact...look at the shots on goal. Kangas faced a LOT of rubber last night...and he's already seen a bunch tonight. Not much defense from goldy, and that means not much offense either. The Sioux are running roughshod over the gophers both nights thus far.
AND I LIKE IT!
What Kangas and his roommate did after the game last night in their hotel room is their business.

toews all star starter - congrats jon
I was at the practice today and saw the announcement, got some great pics of Toews, Kane, and Soupy with their new jerseys

I won't be studying for any of my finals. There also open book if that doesn't count.
-
I'd like to get my finals over with, but my car isn't starting. Walking in these blizzardy conditions isn't my cup of tea.
That is one reason I'm surprised UND hasn't decided to close up shop tomorrow. It would suck if you get up to go to a final and your car doesn't start but are too far to walk, what are you to do, finals have no exceptions.
-
I would rather get the finals done with, then have school closed.
But IMO safety should be the main concern. I could care less I do not have a final tomorrow so this is just my unbiased opinion.
-
any chance UND will cancel finals tomorrow? LOL. my car's dead and i really don't want to walk to campus HAHA. It's not too pretty out there.
UND close It won't happen as long as the director of finance (i.e. the person who is worried about making money) has that power in his or her hands.

How do you even measure the snow with all this wind? Outside my apartment building, I have patches of bare ground with big drifts up against buildings. Good luck trying to measure that.
NWS has instruments
-
How bad was it there anyway? How much snow you guys get?
GFK is ok a couple inches just a ton of wind and blowing snow, Fargo got crushed by the sounds of it
-
One could blame it on the weather, but I think the Sioux ran them out of town.
In all seriousness I do hope they got home safely.

I called looking for prices, PM me please if still available

I'm pretty sure that they show all Blackhawks games in the Chicago area. This happened after the owner died last year.
And the New Year's Day game is on NBC I believe.
Every game is on TV this year with no blackouts.
Also again if you want to watch Hawks games in good quality check out ATDHE.net they always have a feed and it is excellent quality.
-
Hard to imagine any football, basketball, or baseball team would do this? C'mon now, that's a bit ridiculous.
In my defense I did not write this, I copied and pasted off the Hawks forum.

Heard about this a few weeks ago but this is the first text of the story I have seen.
In the middle of a grueling six game road trip where a very
young hockey team is away from home, the third game
of the trip ends late on a cold Canadian Saturday night. This is the
only break on the trip and the three
days between games allow them the only break
to get back home in their own
beds for a couple of days before going
back on the road. A scheduled commercial flight waits for them at
Toronto's International Airport for the short flight home; they could be home by
midnight. This plane departs on
schedule, but without a single member of the hockey team.
Back in the locker room a vote is taken after the game was complete,
and a unanimous decision is made by this young team
to skip this flight and stay one more day. They make arrangements to
check back in the hotel and on a frozen Sunday morning charter two buses
that have no heat and begin a journey two hours straight north into a
sparsely inhabited Canada ,but where hockey is its passion. They arrive at
their destination to the surprise of the team's general manager who is there
attending his fathers wake.
After a few emotional hours, this team boards
the buses and head back for a two-hour trip back to Toronto . On the
way they ask the drivers to stop in a
tiny Canadian town because they are hungry. To the shock of the
patrons and workers at this small hockey town McDonald's, a professional team
walks out of two rickety buses and into the restaurant,
which just happens to have pictures of two members of this team on
its wall. The patrons know every single one of these players by sight
being fanatic fans of hockey in these parts. One can only imagine their
amazement of the locals seeing and entire professional hockey team
sit down and have a meal in their tiny little town in the middle of a hockey season.
After a while they board the buses and catch their same flight 24 hours later,
giving one day to their general manager.
This a true story of the Chicago Blackhawks last Saturday night and they decided to
attend Dale Tallon's fathers funeral. Its amazing that such a good story
can be found nowhere on the internet, and not even
mentioned in the Chicago papers.
Had one of the Blackhawks got into a fight and punched some drunk in a Toronto bar, or said something derogatory about some ex-girlfriend, it would be plastered all over papers and the television.
This being said, its hard to imagine any professional football, basketball
or baseball team doing this, but the members
of the Blackhawks claim any "hockey" team would have done this.
This is one reason I continue to be a huge hockey fan, and another reason I am
excited about this Chicago team.
I thought I would share as this story appears to have gone unnoticed.
EDIT: ALSO IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED THE BLACKHAWKS GAME WILL BE STREAMED ON WWW.ATDHE.NET AT 730 LOCAL TIME

The Hawks have "The Orchard" video which is essentially the same thing and changes every season. I do not know if the Ralph somewhat modeled after theres.

Toews amazing goal last night made me think it would be cool to see some others. I think his was the goal of the year so far
but I haven't seen all goals scored this year and I am biased.
Here is my entry: Toews smokes Detroit!
Next.......
I'm biased also, and it looks like your a fellow Hawks fan, let's beat Phoenix tonight.
But.....as Toews biased as I am, I think his fellow teammate has topped him so far this year. His name is VERSTEEG!!
-
Johnny T just got his second, anyone smelling 1st career hat trick?
-
Johnny T may easily just had a Sportscenter Top 10, much like last years goal against Colorado
-
Oompa Loompa Brad Shep (I swear he looks like one while skating around) missed too many calls including at least 3 CFB.
-
Toews just scored his first fight. Pretty much a draw but Toews scores a takedown.

Eidesness, said and done
Dear E,
Please paint that greenish-blue thing that protects your back, I keep thinking your underwear is showing.
