You may end up being right, but it's definitely not for certain. If I had to guess, it's 50/50 at best. That's from an "inside source" and is no joke. Do I want him to come back? Yes Do I think he's ready for the NHL/AHL? Maybe Is there a lot he could work on? Yes Do I think he will stay? My guess is not.

Evan wanted to play this past weekend. Giving him two more weeks should be enough time to get him on the ice. Trupper will play and I can't wait. The man is one of our most dynamic players. I even like to think back to the Manitoba game where he made the diving stop on the breakaway.

Unbelievable.

Bina, the goalie slayer...

Yeah, this is more realistic. People keep thinking it's on HD every year just because you can see the game on ESPN HD/ESPN2 HD. These games aren't being broadcast in HD as far as I can tell looking at the channel guide since in the description it isn't listed as HD. I wouldn't get your hopes up.

"PORTER WAS ROBBED!"

Picking up tix in five minutes when class gets out, but still looking for a hotel...

AZ, where you staying in Denver?

1) Brewers 2) Fighting Sioux

Even if the Brewers have another disappointing season, they still have the sweetest name in all of sports.

If we had to play Mich in the Champ... "CAT FIGHT: Sioux vs. Ann Arbor"

Go Brewers, undefeated baby.

My roommate and I are traveling down in a Honda CRV (SUV type thing) and are looking for 2 more people for a total of four. All four of us would split a hotel also and would be leaving Wednesday afternoon (most likely). The gas cost prediction is $60-65 per person roundtrip. Let us know if you are considering this ride option. Just PM me if you are interested.

Mark my words, Trupper will be back for the Frozen Four. It will be HUGE for us, Evan is a future Hobey candidate.

You betcha

Clutching and grabbing is NOT allowed with a non-WCHA referee, which we will have if we have to play them. Sioux by 13 in that victory, haha.

That is more than a steal.

I would love to see Porter get a 10 minute misconduct with that...

I was actually thinking that the other day. But you can't replace him on defense though.

For those that have never been to the great state of Wisconsin, I figured this map might be helpful.

Not the regional championship game. Just the first round game.

I really don't mind it if fans of other teams come here and post as long as they keep it an in-depth hockey conversation. Sometimes those are the best conversations. When people come here to talk about whatever and not add any realistic insight, it just wastes people's time. This is wasting people's time.

Overtime Bar and Grill will carry it, I'm 99% sure.

Brian Lee ended up getting the #1 play on SportsCenter tonight. He didn't get any points, but it's the goal he prevented that got him the credit. A Sabres player had two wide open chances at a goal in a scrum in front of the net, and Brian (behind the goalie) stopped the puck on the wide open net to prevent the goal. Here's some highlights on ESPN.com http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/clubhouse?team=ott
