My favorite thing about going to Sioux hockey games is watching the best college hockey team play in the best hockey arena. No other fans have it as good as we do. We are very lucky. God bless the Fighting Sioux!

I would like to set the record straight. I hate the Gophers. BUT they are the funnest team to cheer against. I mean that in the best possible way. I hate their fans and I hate their players. BUT there is no other team I would rather play against. I never said the Gophers were a bad team. Because they aren't by any means. Just some of the stuff their fans cheer and the way they look in their UGLY jerseys ticks me off so I make fun of them. I would love to see the Sioux and the Gophers face off in the second round of the NCAA tournament. That would be just crazy.

I think I have a new best friend

I thank you for the comparison to a Packer fan who are some of the most diehard fans in all of sports. God forbid you compare me to the fans of the "great" vikings. I can't believe you think I am jealous of the Gophers having a better season. I would take a year like Alaska-Anchorage had and be a Sioux fan than be undefeated and a Gopher fan. May I take you back to the years of the great coach Doug Woog. If I can recall your great Gophers won ZERO NCAA championships and the Sioux won 2. We almost snuck a third one in there but apparently 21 years of not winning a national championship was enough and you needed another change.

I returned home from the Final Five and after watching the Gophers win the WCHA tournament I just wanted to express my feelings towards the Gophers and their fans. I HATE THEM BOTH!!! I have no other hate for any sports team like I do for the Gophers. They are such idiots. The Fans They do the same exact cheers at every game it's as if they are zombies. "That's Debatable", "We always were", and "Thank you (After the announcer says there is 1 minute remaining in the period)" are the stupidest cheers in the world especially when you do them every time you can. The fans are the most arrogant in all of sports. I could talk forever about their unbelieveably stupid "M-I-N-N-E-S-O-T-A, Sota Sota" cheer. They do it after every goal and at the end of every stinking period. The Team They are a bunch of GOONS!!! I can garuantee you that if they didn't have last years Frozen Four tournament in the Twin Cities they would be going on 24 years without a NCAA title instead of winning last years. I could also garuantee if they had this year's WCHA tournament anywhere but the Twin Cities area the Gophers don't win it. Instead they give the Gophers home ice advantage throughout the tournament and there are twice as many Gopher fans as there are fans from the other schools combined. Also, the extremely ugly jerseys they have. As if having the colors maroon and gold isn't bad enough they have about 8 alternate jerseys which are the ugliest in all of college hockey (Yes, even worse than Brown University). The Gophers run the WCHA. They have the tournament in the Twin Cities every year and they influence the All-WCHA team. How does Parise get on the 3rd team All-WCHA and Vanek on the 2nd team, but Parise is a Hobey Baker candidate and Vanek is not. Because there wasn't any Gopher fans holding a gun to the Hobey Baker committee's head. I would love for any Gopher fans that belong to this forum to write in and try and prove me wrong.

I can't believe people are really talking about this on a sioux forum. Let's talk hockey folks. If you want to put someone down for their grammar go to an educational forum. Just let it go!!!

Thank you Siouxrock. If they didn't score saturday nite to put it into overtime there wouldn't have been a Sunday. The Sioux dominated the Sunday night OT so much they would have gotten a goal eventually.

The Good Old Hockey Game!!! Oh man that song is great.

If it wasn't even on the poll!!! Bochenski's goal to tie the game in the 3rd period when Brandt was pulledon Saturday night. If not for that goal there wouldn't have been the OT redirection goal by Bochenski or the rocket by Fuher the next night. I'm not saying the redirection goal by Bochenski or the missile by Fuher weren't huge goals. They wouldn't have happened if Bochenski didn't make the goal in the 3rd on Saturday.

No disrespect to 01grad but it's not about being biased or optimistic or even favoring the Sioux because we cheer for them. It's about voting for them to finish in 1st place because know that they can win 1st place, because we know they are capable of it. Everyone that's a "TRUE" Sioux fan should be choosing 1st place because we know what "the boys" are the best in the country. We've even have a goalie that can keep us in games. Hey, is it to late for Brandt to make a run at the Hobey Baker? Hahaha!!!

It's in their hands!!! Obviously the Sioux have been horrible these last few weeks. I believe if Blais can figure it out that he can only play RANFRANZ (maybe Brandt) if he wants the Sioux to go anywhere in the postseason the Sioux will make a huge run in the playoffs. The Sunday night game against UMD was an unbelieveable game. The Ralph was rockin' after the second goal, by Bochenski. I know that the three seniors will use that moment and fire up for the Wisconsin series. I just am not sure about the goalies. Hopefully the rest of the team gave the goalies an earful after the heartbreaker on Sunday. You know the seniors don't want Sunday's game to be the last one they ever play in the Ralph. Siembida needs to be thrown out into the back alley and have someone beat some sense into him. How could anyone let the third goal in. Heck, I could have made that save. After Bochenski's huge goal, which could have been the turning point to their slump, Siembida makes the biggest bonehead play since Bill Buckner by coming a mile outside of the crease. I agree that it wasn't totally Siembida's fault, because Jones fell, but that is what you have a goalie for, to stop the puck when there is no defense.

This is really pathetic!!! The Sioux are taking the best start by any Sioux team ever and throwing in the dumpster. They are playing with no heart. It's really sad to see them play this poorly when at this time of the year they should be beating mediocre teams (such as Denver and Michigan Tech) badly.

how did we do tonite i heard it was 1-1 after the 2nd period. i have seen anthing else.

Dean Blais should get COACH OF THE MILLENIUM

The only way I would pay $300 for a game worn jersey would be if it had gopher blood on it from when the Sioux beat the gophers or if it were Parise's.
