SCSU blurred Tyler Arneson's Blackhawk logo in his NHL picture in their media guide.

There was a Native American group on the SCSU campus that once asked UND not to wear its hostile and abusive jerseys when the Sioux played in St. Cloud. And, of course, former SCSU president Roy Saigo spearheaded the NCAA effort to get rid of American Indian nicknames. But as far as I know, SCSU has never had an official policy against playing UND.

Plus, nobody's working on a college hockey video game!

And 5 and 4, too.

Not really. The past two seasons, the Sioux went 9-13-1 at home before the new year, which wasn't good. But those were two young teams, so it's somewhat understandable. The other young team with a losing record in the first half was the 01-02 Sioux who went 4-5. In other seasons... 02-03: 13-0-1 03-04: 11-2-0 04-05: 7-3-0 I agree, but the Sioux have played three games at home against two teams ranked in the top 10 and are 2-1 against them. It's way too early to sound the "We suck in the REA!" alarm.

On the ice for the SHG: 29,16,7,4,28,G1 On the ice for the PPG: 4,5,7,16,G1 On the ice for 5-on-5 goal: 4,5,11,10,14,G1 On the ice for the ENG: 5,28,7,17,16,10

Yeah, he answered it after the game, too. But he made it clear that he didn't think that anyone should even ask the question.

I thought the Sioux came out with plenty of fire Saturday. They outshot CC 18-4 in the first period and had a big advantage in scoring opportunities. The difference was that Bachman made saves Saturday that O'Connell didn't on Friday. Giving up the shorthanded goal seemed to deflate the Sioux and the crowd. The other turning point was the penalty on Bina, which the team didn't seem to react to very well. Two quick CC goals and it was all over. I agree with Scott Owens that the play of Bachman enabled the Tigers to gain confidence as the game went on. CC's veterans stepped up in difficult circumstances, scored some big goals, played some smart defense and got the split. The other team also gets a vote in the outcome of the game. The other thing I learned Saturday is that you should never question Owens' goalie rotation unless you want your head bit off.

You are correct. Because that's where Hakstol thinks he can do the team the most good. Forney, Davidson, Jones

Well said by the guy who's obviously here reading those posts.

Radke replaces Forney in tonight's lineup. Marto replaces Jones for an all freshman D pairing of Marto and LaPoint. That should be interesting.

Radke

It's over. Sioux win 59-14. 563 yards of offense today. Best defense in the NCC?

I've met Sweeney's significant other. Some people around here need to get lives.

That's pretty cool! Thanks.

Especially if he weighs more than 200 pounds.

Neither would I. It's pretty tough to keep a guy out of the lineup when he's earning a spot in practice and has played well when he's been in.

The Gophers?

Didn't look to me that the last USD TD should have been one.

I could've sworn there was a period at the end.

Does that mean we are the state of...?

Considering that Stafford, Parise and Bochenski only started one game together as a line during the 03-04 season, I'm not quite sure how that line got etched into Sioux hockey lore.

You're just trying to get me in trouble with Jeff's mom.

We all are.
