    Amazing goal!

    in Men's Hockey

    i have seen better, including this one

    i would still say ovechkins goal last year vs phoenix was the best i have ever seen and it was even better seeing it live, and the best part was the great one triple checking the jumbotron along with robocops cocky azz :silly:

    well yeah, hands down ovechkins goal was amazing. I guess I was thinking from a college level. I've seen a ton more awesome goals but for some reason this caught my attention. A ton of skill to do those moves that that speed! ???

    Oshie/ Toews and rest of Sioux to get back on track

    Oshie and Toews have a great chance to get back on track agianst a suspect CC defense. Also CC is brutal on the road and this is just the type of series that can get the Sioux back on track. Predictions on scores this weekend?

    no more predictions from me, at least for my sports teams! I predicted 6-2 and 4-2 for a sioux sweep last weekend. It must have been opposite weekend for me. That must explain why i had my velcro shoes on the wrong feet :silly:

    Greatest time at the new REA

    in Men's Hockey

    Posted

    Ok, I can't remember the date exactly, but my favorite game was at home vs. BC. We were down 4-2 going into the 3rd period and we scored 4 unanswered goals to win 6-4.

    It was loud, we were proud and Kaltaiinen (BC Goaltender) probably felt like crying. ???

    Other than that, being in a seat where I could hold up signs that could be read by the players and viewed easily by the cameras (so I was frequently on the jumbotron) was cool too.

    Hmm..I wonder it it was the BC game im thinking about and not the CC game. Whichever one it was, they were both amazing. Ill have to look back and see the scoring in both games to remember exactly. It was one of the first two years of the new REA opening. But yes, I think if anyone was at that game HC MN, you could not disagree that that place was the loudest and maybe will never again be that loud because that place went nutz! and it was my b'day to top if off. I had a headache of all hell the next morning, and then again the following morning :silly: I think even the old people that never clapped during a sioux game ever were doing backflips that day! that 'lets go sioux' chant was rediculous. They have many clips of that HC MN game but none of them carry on long enough to here the lets go sioux chant at the end of the game,which kinda sucks. Anyways! Eat, get fat, be lazy, and then bring on some hockey!

    Mine would probably be the time when we were playing CC, either the first or second year the new REA opened. We came back from behind, I want to say two/three goals, towards the end of the game and ended up winning it. I remember(either the tying goal or the winning goal) jumping on the people next to me, basically freaking out and then looking across the arena and watching all the fans. It almost looked like one huge moshpit! Everyone went wild. I think it had to be one of the best games in this arena so far, other than then west regionals last year, in my opinion. :silly:

    Some of this might be a tad off, so please correct me!

    How quickly they forget.

    To inject a little negativity into this group therapy session - I will say that this year UND may not even get a chance at a Frozen 4 run if they finish T4th or 5th like the past two years. The WCHA probably will not get five teams into the tournament this year.

    I'm not saying the season is over - far from it - I'm saying that just because they are on pace with where they were at the last two years at this point in the season does not mean everything is A-OK. This year is different and they will have to finish better than they did the previous two years to get another Frozen 4 chance.

    Good opinion. As long as the team can stay away from injuries, and we stay strong in the net, we have a good chance to go far into the season once again. Hak needs to get some strong lines together, and keep them there so the players can adapt to each others game and get a good feel for one another. By mid season we will be there, and will make a climb towards the top! :silly:

    I agree that the #1 position, though pretty much all but promised Phil to start the season, is now Phil's to lose. This is not saying that Phil could keep it. I have seen flashes of greatness in every game Grieco's played in by him (except for last Friday's game). He can only improve and if he does, Phil may have some worrying to do next season.

    very true. Im sure itll be a goalie swat from game to game like it has been in the past. Not like Jordans last year at UND where he played most games, but the previous years where goalies would always swap..I hated that! Lammy will get the start this weekend and maybe grieco on saturday, unless lammy really tears it up...Thats just my opinion is all :silly:

    And yes, lammy is back for sure, unless something happens this week

    Least lammy will be back. And I'm sure he will be playing. Maybe if Grieco had a kick butt weekend it would be a battle for goalie this week, but of course thats not the deal so it should be an easy prediction for the spot :silly:

    Direction of the Team

    I personally think that the coaches should call Washington right now tell them come get Joe and sign him to a contract. Joe skates like he is affraid to make a mistake and he hasn't hit anyone since Skille. HIT SOMEONE. They have to make people affraid to come into the kitchen because they are going to get hit.

    And that IS NOT sarcasm. You take a good hit early in the game, then guaranteed somewhere in the opponents mind is thinking where is my a$$ going to get handed to me next. Thus, throwing of the precision(or another word, I'm not thinking that hard) of a player and his game. It cracks me up when people think hitting isn't a big part of the strategy of the game, or what should be. Sioux need to look into it :silly:

    I would like to see the UND defense concentrate more on hitting and little less on being up ice trying to score. I would like to see some of our defensemen becoming more physical and knocking some heads off people. I mean cleanly of course. Maybe they need to eat some dog food and get meaner. I have never seen a group of UND players that hit so little compared to years past.

    I think someone is right we do miss Brad Berry and the mentoring he gave the d-man.

    Hit hit hit! Can't say it enough. Its like 50% of the game! Finley should be one of the top hitters on the team, which he is not, or if he tries to make a hit he gets called for an elbow, right sheppard? We have the skills for everthing else but the physical play, hits hits and more hits needs to step up about 100%.

    Here are a couple of video clips from the end of the UND v. Holy Cross game. I shot these videos with my digital camera so the quality is far from professional but you can definitely hear how loud the crowd was at that game. The first clip is the final 2 minutes of the game. The second clip is the tournament player recognitions, the team salute to the fans, and the final skate of Mike Prpich.

    I couldn't have asked for a better birthday that this day! I wish prpich wouldve skated around a little bit longer...If more people would've had a chance to see what was going on, he would have had one hell of an applause. I just caught it as he was skating back 8o(.

    One hell of a hockey player. Will be missed!

    THanks for the videos!

    I decided on the same goal when I moved back to MN. I'm hopefully heading to Denver or CC this year. Already got Mankato out of the way a few weeks ago. Made it to Decc, SCSU, and Tech last year. Been to Mariucci a few times.

    so whats smoogies 'words' on going to mariucci? verbally abused? I know their fans for the final five are umm..... ;)

    Has this off week really been a month long? Cause it sure seems like it.

    I feel like this is the first game of the season all over again! I hope the webcast turns out! So the more people who watch it the more crappy it is? I heard that somewhere, whether if its true or not..... ;)

    I'm unable to watch the archived games of Minn St. vs. UAA as well(had to use a zip code of theres). I didn't get a message though. The message I did get from my player is: "Requested file not found. The link you followed may be outdated or inaccurate."

    And I was using Media Player Classic with the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack installed which basically lets me watch any type of video format on the net. So it's probably something on there end. I believe I saw at USCHO a UAA fan posted saying that the zip code thing will be fixed by Friday and that we should be able to watch the series with no problem.

    yup i gotter working..now i can see what their team looks like vs wisconisn. Not bad at all for a feed either!
