Wow, Siouxsports must be setting records for mid-summer troll numbers.

As much as I despise all things Minnesota (even those outside of hockey), Xcel is the only place for the Final Five (or whatever it is in the future). It's a great central location (as good as it gets), in a strong hockey fan base, in a very populated region, in a facility that is first-class with plenty of seats. There's no need to change. Not even to Milwaukee. The Pepsi Center would be another comparable alternative to Milwaukee, but that as well would fall well short of what they do in St. Paul. When you have so many teams in/near Minnesota, having the tourney in Minnesota is the only logical money-making location.

That's laugh out loud funny right there...

I wouldn't expect any changes, unless Eids grabs numero uno.

Following the NHL Draft and player's status' isn't one thing I do, but I would have to imagine it will help Rodwell's chances seeing as he's coming here.

It's true! We slaughtered a bunch of people from the U of M in our barn this year...it's nice to finally see accurate reporting on a national TV station.

Nice...always good to have connections at the junior level, so we shouldn't lose anything by losing Blais.

Are they showing World of Outlaws tonight live on like the MidCo channel or anything? Or, does anyone know any live feeds on the internet? I didn't feel like shelling out a bunch of cash for it tonight, so I'm passing. Sorry for posting in the hockey forum. Figured I'd get a better chance at a response before the race starts tonight if I posted here. Mods can delete later tonight.

Roger that....

Whoever said you did play for NDSU?

Gettin' somewhere now! June 19!

Shouldn't they be the Florida State Semi-Trucks by now...? [instead of the Seminoles]

Either way....UND hockey will still exist, so you'll still have the opportunity to cheer for them. You are a Sioux hockey fan, right? I mean, why would someone waste their time on a different school's fan forum, especially when their favorite school doesn't even play sport...?

That's the guys version.... To bring more money in, all girls will be mandated to the olympic pools where they must wear white shirts and follow the same procedures....spectators allowed for $20 a head.

Welcome to June

"CRACK IS GREAT!"

Wow....sounds almost too good to be true...

Why should we congratulate him when he doesn't even acknowledge his North Dakota history? I used to like the guy when he was with the Bulls (I'm a huge Jordan fan), but then I found out about the real Phil Jackson....

Are you gonna tell us the dictionary is wrong and is trying to scam us out of our hard-earned dollars and that we are neanderthals for listening to it? (On a side note, new theories suggest that neanderthals were as smart or smarter than "humans" or whatever you want to call the other species) Anywho: Argument: 2. a discussion involving differing points of view; debate: They were deeply involved in an argument about inflation. 3. a process of reasoning; series of reasons: I couldn't follow his argument. 4. a statement, reason, or fact for or against a point: This is a strong argument in favor of her theory. You should get your facts straight before spreading word around like its gospel.

Yeah, Dave is an odd one. Ever since he was a little boy, he's loved other boys' sticks and how they play with them. It excited him to see other boys banging their sticks on each other. The ones with the biggest sticks he liked the most, but he didn't have many friends because he had a little stick...

Some new info I heard....from a very reliable source. According to this person, it's rumored to be that UND will have RBK/CCM uni's for the upcoming year and not Gemini. The person made it seem like it was already a done deal, so don't shoot the messenger if it turns out to be false. Also, he said that they'd likely have the RBK Edge jerseys as well.

Fixed it for you

Yep, I remember reading the same thing, it was down in the site suggestions section of the forum or whatever it's called.

See hockey leagues in Europe. Very little fighting, lots of cheap crap...

It's obvious that everyone and the grandma would rather have UNO over UAF....however.... Hasn't the WCHA (well, McLeod anyways) said they'd like to become a "super conference" at some point? Adding UAF would be an option, as well as possibly UAH or another school (Moorhead? Iowa State? Nebraska-Lincoln?) along with BSU and UNO (BSU and UNO being assumptions). Having 14 teams with two 7 team divisions is possible. UAF and UAA would be in separate divisions to better suit the lower 48 teams in the WCHA, but they'd still get to play two series' a year or something. I'm not pushing for that idea or anything, or even think it's going to happen, but it's something to ponder if the "super conference" idea was a true statement.
