  1. Just got in...have they given an update on Genoway's status?
  2. Thought this was interesting: http://www.sbncollegehockey.com/2014/12/16/7403999/thatcher-demko-whl-rights-traded-spokane-chiefs-calgary-hitmen-boston-college-hockey-east-wjc-2015 Demko from BC...potential goalie starter for the USA WJC team...just had his WHL rights traded to the Hitmen (the same team that plucked Adam Tambellini from us during the semester break last year). Interesting timing for sure, even if the GM for the Hitmen claims that it was just a shot in the dark trade.
  3. Sorry, I don't want UND to ever have a player named Krys on the team. Every time he was on the ice it would just remind me of a certain Krys from BC that...well, you know.
  4. Remember that Matthews needs a roster spot too.
  5. Something tells me that Boeser isn't going to UW. Just seems weird to me that he would decommit to UW, and then just commit again to them. My guess is either UMN or UND.
  6. UMN is giving up a ton of shots to opponents this year. MSU outshot them 45-24 in tonight's game. Yowza.
  7. I could care less about these grammar lessons. I bet Toews and his hottie girlfriend could care less too.
  8. Now THAT was a comeback. I'm expecting a more one-sided (on the scoresheet) win tomorrow.
  9. Johnson: Yes and yes. Poolman: Started at Defense...ended at forward.
  10. That's a four letter word around here to some posters!
  11. I always liked watching Sparky. Fun player.
  12. http://www.grandforksherald.com/content/mens-hockey-und-ranked-no-1-both-polls-first-time-end-2010-11-season Looks like end of 10/11 season.
  13. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a Sioux fan "content" with the results thus far. Everyone here, with no exception IMO, wants a national title. Every single Sioux poster on this forum. But just because some Sioux fans "demand" a title does not make it so. Regular season success. League titles. Playoff titles. National titles. Hakstol-led teams have brought the fanbase all of them except for the most coveted one. Would a different coach have brought a national title to GF during this drought? Maybe, maybe not. If Hakstol was fired/replaced, would a national title soon follow? Maybe, maybe not. The grass is not always greener... The only thing that irks me is how some fans bring this topic up in every single thread. Regardless of time of year. Regardless of the team's record. ("hey look over there, the team is ranked #1 right now!!...Fire Hakstol, he can't win the big one!") It's a valid topic, but does the same conversation really need to be rehashed after the first loss of the year and after every subsequent loss ("we're 0-1, do you think Blais will come back?"). This conversation goes in circles. And it will unfortunately keep going until either Hakstol brings it home or he gets replaced...at which point the circular conversation begins fresh once again. That said, how about this current #1 ranked UND team? Even with all those injuries. Maybe they can hoist that big trophy up at the end of the season in Boston...or Tampa...maybe Chicago...or St. Paul. Heck, why not all four?
  14. National titles aren't realistic anymore? I don't recall any Sioux fan ever saying or alluding to that. I don't think you'll find a more passionate fan base in all of college hockey.
  15. He's already looking forward to next season after writing off the current disaster of a BADger team?
  16. Combined that with his mouthing off before the series...what a classy guy!
  17. How about we just keep Cags but still add Matthews?
  18. I've never heard of this Gates kid. Decent pickup for UMN? And how does he compare to Boeser?
