I heard on on the screen playing (i'm in the band) just for a few seconds, but I'd like to see it anyway. Does anybody have a tape and video capture capabilities to e-mail it to me??

Any comments?

Every game at the Ralph this year there have been plenty of empty seats. Even the "sold out" games. Seats that are owned by the season ticket holders. I hope for the sake of the team, and everybody, that all the season ticket holders show up and we actually fill every seat in that place. That place would roar if we could actually fill it. Filling it is different than selling every seat. Maybe not the those in charge of accounting, but to the game, it's different. Being the first post-season game of the new ralph, I hope that place rattles from the noise.

We really need to rock the house. That will always help. Too bad we're not in the old ralph where we could almost rock the building down.

Noterman works really will with ZP and BB. I think they should keep them all together. Spiewak, Lundbohm, Fylling also seem to mesh really well. I hope they keep them together. I really don't like how the lines keep getting shuffled. It doesn't give the guys time to get the feeling for each other. Just like musicians, after playing together for enough time they just KNOW what the other guys are doing, that's what we need our guys to do.

Defenseman? Did he shoot from outside the near circle? If so I saw that, and it was really cool. First NHL goals are always really cool to see.

What's the issue with student seating??

Television: This weekend

CC in 2 MN in 2 MSUM in 2 UND in 3 St Cloud in 3

Do you think the bracket is right? It just seems a bit messed up putting UND 5th. I think we deserve higher than that. Opinions??

I really don't know what to expect. Given that Wisconsin is in 8th, the stats would say the Sioux could pull off a sweep. But this team has proven unpredictable. I would like to hear some opinions on the upcoming weekend. A sweep is almost necessary to grab home ice for the first round.

So if they have camera's running, why aren't we getting a feed for the FSSN? Also, who would I call to inquire about us not getting the broadcast this weekend?

This is VERY encouraging. Seems like we'll have him for one more year for sure. I don't think Blais would have said anything like that unless Parise has also said something.

I think it amazing that half of the men's top 10 is NCC. I really hope the women can win out, which they definatly have the talent to do. Cuz then we would most likely host the regionals. I'm sure that's quite an atmosphere in the hyslop for regional.

What do you mean 12,000 isn't enough in fargo? It would be nice if it was bigger only because more concerts would come up here. But how often is that place actually full? Only time I can think of is when the Sioux come to town. I grew up in Moorhead, by the way. So I pretty much know what I'm talking about.

I know, I know. Just wishful thinking. But wouldn't it be damn cool?!?

I say we move D1 then join the Big10 conference for all sports when the Big10 adds hockey.

Just to clear things up for me, 5th place is still home ice for 1st round Final Five, right?? Also, after the 1st round, all games are in St. Paul, correct??

Yea, it would have to be the FSSN. They wouldn't put the games on FSN because they seems to be a UMN network.

who does he play for?

Just out of curiousity, why don't teams play the regionals at the site that is in their region? Why wouldn't UND play in Minneapolis (St. Paul, I believe) and OSU play in Ann Arbor?? Why do teams get moved around like that?

I think the key is going to be able to hold 2nd place. Like said, if they can rip up denver, they have a decent shot at it. Plus they still have UMD, Mankato, and Wisconsin after Denver. Mankato will be tough, Wisconsin shouldn't be too bad, I have no idea about UMD, but they need to pull out the season 7-1 or better in my opinion to get a good spot for the Final Five. The way it looks now, if we can pull out 2nd place, we'll end up playing 4 games in a row against Wisconsin (or 5 if we blow the 3rd or 4th).

Except Parise didn't play last year.

Except tonight (saturday) everybody at the Ralph cheered when they announced UM was beating CC.
