Apparently Sioux fans have forgotten where their season ended in 2002 and 2003. The Sioux can't beat the Gophers in their own Nazi palace so they have to brag about another team doing it for them. Very pathetic for a so called proud fanbase.

Only on SS.com will you hear anyone call Kozek a sniper. Now I've heard everything.

What good did it do you? You choked two days later.

So was April 6th, when the Siouxage didn't even bother to show up for their biggest game of the season and got their a$$e$ handed to them on national television. Good way for Parise to go out though, giving up ten goals in his last two Frozen Four appearances. Lammy in net next year? Good luck with that. And Kozek and Porter possibly on the top line or two? Their's no reason to even take UND seriously next year. Look at the bright side though, by sucking so much next season UND won't have to bother making those generic uniforms for the NCAA Tournament.

Sorry, I didn't mean to call you specifically a moron. I didn't know it was TSN who reported this first... they're the morons! Thanks for the info though.

And who the hell cares what Toews can bench press? Let's just ignore his great speed and amazing shot and excellent vision and worry about how much weight the kid can bench. I can't believe this moron thinks this is news.

I agree. This is no big deal and it's not really news. But would this be your response if this had happened to Kessel?

Parise is gone. Everybody outside of Grand Forks has already come to this realization. It's no surprise. Frazee leaving Minnesota, however, is a huge surprise.

21 posts is an obsession? It's also my first post in weeks. Nice try though.

As a Gopher fan, I would much rather have Sioux fans wearing HC jerseys at Mariucci next year instead of their Sioux gear. Puprple goes well with mullets and Nascar hats. While reading through this thread and the other HC threads on here, it's hard for me to believe that I'm on a website for one of the most tradition rich and greatest college hockey programs of all time. The inferiority complex that you people have for the University of Minnesota just baffles me. Look, I know the back to back NCAA titles pissed you all off, and I know you're still pissed about Parise and Bochenski leaving town without a ring... and I know you're all still upset that Vanek won ROTY over God and that Kessel won ROTY over Toews and Oshie. And I know you're a little pissed off about the Sioux managing only a .333 winning % against Minnesota at the new Ralph. But really people, you guys have the Gophers on your minds more than St. Cloud State and Duluth fans combined. It's truly pathetic. You all need to wake up tomorrow, get over the depressing feeling that living in Grand Forks brings, and get a life. You're the only fanbase of one of the top programs in the country that doesn't act like one.

Parise is a good goalie, he just needs to learn how to play well in a Frozen Four. But seriously, I doubt Parise will be with UND next year. He's a Junior and a free agent coming off a huge year. His stock will never be higher than right now. He'd be crazy not to take the money, and I'd be surprised to see him in a Sioux uniform again.

That's the first time I've seen that goal since seeing it live in person. Man, it brought back a sick feeling in my stomach. I think I should have waited a few more months before watching this, I just wasn't ready yet.

Two examples of North Dakota's bizarre obsesion with their rivals: 1) Two words: Holy Cross. I'd expect Sioux fans to be happy to see the Gophers lose, but the level of enthusiasm over this game is beyond belief. Very SCSU and Duluth like of them. 2) North Dakota State's victory over Wisconsin in men's basketball. The petty jealousy throughout the Grand Forks city limits due to the national exposure that NDSU received from that win was very strange, to say the least. But if UND fans could just for once take off their green and white glasses and realize that not everything is about them, they'd see that people around the country didn't think twice about ND's little Div. II college up in grand Forks when talking about the NDSU/UW b-ball upset.

The old REA is one of the greatest arenas in the history of college hockey. The atmosphere was incredible, and the intimidation factor was very high. My first game there was in 1989 when the Sioux beat the Gophers 9-0. The Gophs won the next night 9-3. I made sure to go up there in November of 2000 so I could see the last series that Minnesota ever played in that building. It would be a shame to see it gone, but it's better than turning it into a women's b-ball and volleyball and men's wrestling arena like the "U" did to old Mariucci.

You're right, I forgot the Gophers added another goal just to rub it in a little more. Of course by that time there were only about 2,500 people left in the arena to see it.
