ok wtf, i need an internet feed for the webcast does anybody know how to get a feed for the game.............

Or do you know how to get anything like this working on a Mac ?? ?? i know macs are not good for doing this kind of stuff but any info would be good, thanks !!!!!!!!

Has anybody noticed the straping on hextal's right foot, this may be the injury everybody is talking about in the Sioux vs UNH thread (i think) and people say he has been around campus in a leg brace. lets hope it gets better ASAP!!!!!!!!!

I know this probably belongs in the Sioux vs UMD Bulldogs thread, but does anybody have the video of the Eidsness giveaway against UMD??? i would like to see exactly what happened?? any links to a video would be awesome, thanks!

I agree with everyone saying that the PP needs to move the puck both FASTER and with more ACURICY, the best example of this was in the 2005 Frozen Four Semi Final against the Gophers in the first 30 seconds of the first period, not only was the puck movement incredibly fast, but it was accurate and everybody was moving around, although they didnt score on the powerplay they had many good quality chances and maintained possesion for the whole power play, the gophers did not know what to do and they looked like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off, that PP was very good and i wish this team could execute the PP like the 04/05 team could, but it is unlikely as this team is lacking the skill of that team (stafford, zajac, sparky, smaby etc). If we ask nicely maybe somebody with this game on DVD will be able to upload it to youtube so you can all see what i mean.

I picked the same thing, that would be such an awesome championship match up, (fingers crossed) & (knock on wood) I have butterflies in my stomach, and they will not go away, i am so excited and nervous at the same time, I cant wait for Sunday morning at 5am, i will not sleep saturday night i will be to excited. GO SIOUX!!!!!!!!

I didnt see either of the Eidsness slip ups but by the sounds of it, the goal he gave away was a BIG mistake, but what caused this was a little loss of focus to not check over his shoulder for a forechecker, i guess he assumed on the PP there wouldnt be an aggressive forechecker coming, but he still needs to be 100% focused and ready to play from here on. Hextall does need to be careful this weekend, the refs will be out there to call every little thing and Hexy can not make any dumb descisions or the Sioux could really pay for it. I agree, joe needs to pick up his Defensive game, i often find he never knows when to play the puck and not the body, he always choses to play the body and either gets beat to the puck by a small fast player or gets a penalty i think he needs to work on this, but overall he has been a big part of this defensive group and has played well we just need him to play GREAT this weekend as defense will be extremely important in this regional.

Try living Down Under!!! But the rest of this place is OK i guess,

OK, I am very excited about this weekend, the Sioux are coming off an absolutely shocking run in the Final 5 but i think they got their bad weekend out of the way and are ready to play the way we know they can, I have a few points, Firstly, this is one and done playoff hockey, even the most favourite of teams can be knocked out of the tournament by the most unlikely teams (eg. HOLY CROSS ) So i expect to see a lot of upsets as i do every year Secondly, We are a number 2 seed and the "home" team against UNH so we can always match up Van Riemsdyk's line with our best defensive line using the last change, this is great for us as said many times before JVR is the majority of UNH's offense if we can shut him down we will have a great chance to take down this UNH team Third, we do need to work on the special teams, the PP is needing a lot of work and with a good PP unit this team could acomplish a lot they just need to fix this FAST, the PK is hurting a little without LaPoint but it is still quite solid we just need to be careful not to take any dumb penalties, with HE refs there will be a lot of calls made so our big D men need to be careful. Four, Eidsness has become such a reliable goalie for UND, the players have a lot of faith in him and this gives them the confidense to force shots on him from out wide, Sure he may have slipped up once at the Final 5 but it was just a lillte focus slip up, so at least he slipped up then and knows to be focused on even the most innocent plays and he will be ready for the regoinal, he will be solid in net this weekend just as he has been all year. 5, We do need lady luck to work in favour of the Sioux this weekend, i didnt see any of the final 5 but i did hear that there were a lot of unlucky bounces for UND so lets hope that the bad bouncs are all out of the way and now the good bounces will arrive for UND, as the saying goes you have to be "good to be lucky and lucky to be good" so lets hope that UND can earn some of those lucky bounces this weekend Finally, with the MacNaughton cup UND was expected to do well at the final 5, and that didnt happen, now this team is back to being the under dog and is facing adversity straight in the face, and i think this Sioux team thrives off that, i believe the determination we saw earlier this year is back, they know they are not expected to make it to Washington, they are not in front of a home crowd and they have nothing to lose, i think this will be the driving force for this Sioux team Lets hope all these things go our way this weekend and the Sioux can hopefully punch their ticket to Washington D.C. The SK8 for 8 is back on and i cant wait for it to get started. GO SIOUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anybody have any info on a webcast link for the selection show, Any video coverage over the net or audio links would be great, thanks!!!

OK good, thats good, hopefully it wasnt a knee it is just a bruised/strained quadricep

Anything on Watkins........... Anything at all ??

lets use this 5min PP hopefully this will help with getting this PP back on track... any news on watkins, did he skate off or get carried off.... what is happening with his knee????

I think a BIG comeback would be a lot better..... O.... NO....... watkins is down..... i hope he is not hurt

Maybe this is a good wake up call, hopefully they get the message load and clear, this is playoff hockey and there is no room for poor hockey from here on in.

You know what i mean... But seriously, i just hope they can start to play hockey, it sounds like they are watching the dogs as they skate circles around them...

Well, i have no idea what is going on, i cant see the game, but at least we can say it is still early and lets hope that once the Sioux settle into the game they will start playing well and can produce some quality chances and shut down the dogs.

It is now!!!

OMG what happened........ this PP unit needs work

wow it sounds like that should have been 1-0 UMD.....

You F#@&ing Panzie, OMG u had better go to the game... i am in Australia and would do anything to have the option to go to the F5, if u dont u will FAIL the test anyweay cuz ur teacher will know u studied and will punish u for nat going... trust me teachers like dedicated fans of their college hockey teams better than how smart they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO and i bet you will not regret it!!! P.S. sorry if i offend u, i am a little drunk.... anyway, time for me to go to bed ill be back for the game later folks and until then i will dream of a Sioux win later today, GO SIOUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OOOOOO, Ouch

I thought Kangas is better sick than Patterson is healthy .... but i have no real source for this

What are they going to achieve by doing this... Losing the game and their season is over, but Kangas will be nice and healthy for Golf Next week

You can also have the gametracker running on your computer (if you are on one at work) in case you cant listen to the audio
