Sad, I hate young funerals whether I knew them or not.

I think we gotta ignore the bad seeds and root for an all WCHA final.
I agree, I've always liked Duluth, even when they have idiot fans like Running with the Dummies who just gave me a negative vote.

Maybe they just haven't learned how to behave when they have a good team.

Dell
in Men's Hockey
Interesting point brought up here. In Grand Forks, legends are made in the Frozen Four. I think back on some of the great teams that barely fell short of glory and they aren't even recognized in Sioux history really (ex 1979 2001 2004 2005 and too many Frozen Four teams). What we celebrate are NCs. Thankfully we do have that standard at UND and players strive for it.
Or in St Cloud they're proud of the times they made the top 16....

I'm hoping Goon will let me in his suite.
-
What about the plan the NCAA has for the Frozen Four tournament where they won't let either team change lines after an icing?

Dell
in Men's Hockey
Eddie was gone after one season. If #8 comes, what would Dell goals be for next season? Repeating at the same level, which would be awesome, may not be his goals.
Three-Peat.

Dell
in Men's Hockey
How much do we owe Karl Goerhing for bringing Dell along. Dell wasn't very good last year. This year he's the best in the country.

"This is not college hockey" the announcer says.
Radke definately made Testicle his be-otch that night!
If I remember right the fight was against Vossberg. Earlier in the game he and Testuide had a bit of an altercation.
-
It was really nice how Radke was trying to knock the ugly out of Vossberg.

The grainy picture is more than likely a picture of part of the skate. If it isn't where is the goalies skate? It should be right along with the puck.
-
The picture isn't the reason I think it was a goal, the video from the front view is what changed my mind. I watched all the games today and saw all the videos replaying the goal and didn't think it was a goal until I was watching the BC/CC game and saw the front view video. I wish I had the video I am talking about where you can see the puck shot at him and then his foot pushing it out after it crosses the line. I will post it if I find it.
I'm not saying it couldn't be a goal. I'm saying that under the rules it has to be clear. If there is definitive proof it would almost certainly be available on the internet by now wouldn't it?
Until that proof is available it was a bad call. No judgement calls here.

I didn't initially see it, but if you look at the replay, I think that might be the puck between the goalie's skate blades...there's a roundish black spot on the slow motion replay...then he moves his skates outward. When you see the puck coming back out and trace its line, it goes right to that spot. That might be what they are seeing...just my thoughts and I'm not saying I'm right...but that's what I see on the replay...they looked at it for 10 minutes so they must have seen something and finally concluded that it was the puck...
In the meantime, CC is wiping up the ice with BC...go CC...
I was looking back there as well, but with the net there I couldn't tell if there was a puck there.
Wonder if they using HD cameras. The live chat on uscho said that the UNO folks were pissed.
-
No it doesn't. As others have said, if it "may not have been conclusive" it's not a goal.
Unless they can show a screenshot of the goal over the line then it was no goal.
-
Like I said, the replay may not have been conclusive but I still believe it was a goal. I don't know if that makes it the right call, but I do know that I would be pissed if the Sioux were in the position Michigan was in and had it ruled no goal.
That's pretty ignorant. There's no evidence that it was a goal and by the rules it is NOT a goal. Being pissed off over that would be highly stupid.

I'm not 100% convinced that the replay showed conclusive evidence, but I believe it was a goal. Yeah, it's a tough way to lose a game if you're a UNO fan but imagine how upset you'd be if you were a Michigan fan and it had been ruled not a goal. Blais didn't argue much if at all, so that should tell you something.
Duh, the rules say conclusive evidence. I don't see it in the net.

I would not be so sure about Miami jumping over. I read somewhere this morning (I went looking for it to cite it) that Miami would probably have financial issues with traveling to WCHA barns. Right now, most of their conference games are bus trips up into Michigan. Joining the WCHA would require a lot of flights, and one of the things cited was the size of their arena, 3200 seats, limiting the amount of $$$ they can get in.
Also, the many of the remaining schools in the CCHA are in the MAC with Miami for their other sports.
Their hockey arena is less than 5 years old. I don't understand limiting themselves so badly.

Just figured I would ask since everyone assumes I am an NCAA Official meth head.
Fixed your post.

Grand Junction was amazing. Bread was so good. To this day its probably one of the best philly subs I've ever had.
It was good, and I'm sure extremely healthy for you to eat there.

No Clay Jenkinson, it is about the power of the majority of both "anglos" and Indians to tell elite leadership that Indian symbols are meaningful symbols that bridge cultures. The media and so-called intellectuals like Mr Jenkinson keep repeating that the nickname is divisive, when the opposite is true:
Nothing has bridged the Indian and at-large communities more than the nickname issue. It is minority groups in both communities that are demanding a scorched earth policy and desire ill-will between the communities.
hear hear.

I did not hear you complaining though.
I didn't see the law going through the last session. If I had I would have written that I disagreed with the idea of voting by mail.
In this case we did cover the Benson County controversy on Say Anything. I believe we covered it better than most of the newspapers. My opinion was that even though I disagreed with the vote by mail scheme I thought that everyone in the county must be treated the same whether or not they were Indians. The Democrats disagreed and even took it to court to give the Indians greater voting access than the rest of the county.
That's just wrong.

From a strictly constitutional point of view, I think Omdahl is correct.
I made a comment earlier about a constitutional crisis in the making; this would be the second time it is accurate.
This is going to be a real mess, and I am not including the NCAA in making this determination.
And if the Board of Higher Education defies the legislature and the public then they get everyone even more royally pissed off at them.....
Not a good strategy.
If the Board of Higher Education had tried to keep the name and lost they wouldn't be in this position. I say the heck with them.

This is my first Frozen Four, how about some good stories from past on
in Men's Hockey
Posted
Wasn't there something in the paper that someone had an equipment problem and Smail was just giving him time to get ready to play. A contact lens comes to mind, but it's been 30 years so I'm not sure.
