I am a fan of Red Robin, Five Guys, and In-N-Out. Never been a huge fan of Sonic though. There's an In-N-Out right next to my shop that we frequent at lunch quite a bit. Great burgers. Although the cajun fries at Five Guys are killer!

That was sweet justice this weekend on Park's 1st goal on Saturday night. At the other end when Mac got his stick up on the UW player and the BADger dove like he was picked off by a sniper from the upper level. The ref (and Mac) indicated dive and then it was turned up ice and 5 sec later it's in the back of the UW net. Sure, the UW bench was complaining that there wasn't a call...but IMO if all you're doing is diving half the night looking for calls, it's nice to see them get burned on one when they didn't get the call. Stop diving and start playing hockey. Simple as that.

-Michigan on a 2 game win streak now? That must end soon. They sweep MSU. -Quinnipiac continues to roll, beating Yale 6-2. They are unbeaten in the ECAC. -OSU gets a win and tie against Notre Dame. -UMD was leading DU 3-1 with 7 min remaining and then DU scored 3 goals in a minute and a half to win it 4-3. -Tech beats UNO in OT! -SCSU sweeps BSU.

Been awhile since I've seen that much holding, after the whistle crap, slashing, etc. UW seemed more interested in injuring someone tonight than playing hockey, especially after they got behind 2-3 goals. Getting that first goal on them tonight was huge. Forced them to play a bit more open, which they don't look comfortable doing at all. That made them take all sorts of penalties and give up some great chances. Kristo was snakebit tonight...he could have had 2-3 goals himself but couldn't get one to connect. I wouldn't be disappointed at all if we don't see Wisco the rest of the season.

We need these two lines to do something. Preferably pop one or two in. Maybe the Mac bros can regain some BCHL magic.

The UW fans are too busy jumping around in circles and doing choreographed dance routines to realize that they are actually at a hockey game.

That's it, Wilbur. Next time we skate together at Agassiz I am going to go all Jones on you.

What are you trying to tell us?

-Both BC and Michigan won tonight. Boo. -Denver beat UMD 3-0. -UNO beats MTU 4-3 with another strong game from Zombo (1-1-2). -SCSU rolls over BSU 4-0. -UMN didn't win. -CC and UAA playing the late game.

Agreed. We can't have our third consecutive series with one point...definitely not playing well right now.

Wow, a lot of newb posters with one foot off the cliff already.

Wow, that was brilliant work by Schlossman. And I love Hammy's response...talking about how he's "heard" from other people about other issues, not the ones that the Herald has reported on. What a piece of work that guy is. He's always been good as a source of amusement.

Merged the two threads since they were essentially the same.

Someone posted earlier that he said on Twitter that he was off the IR, but he hasn't played since then either. That was a week or two ago...

Recruit Update: '92 Paul LaDue, D, Lincoln (USHL), 38gp, 10-22-32 '93 Geoff Crisfield, D, Vernon (BCHL), 38gp, 1-1-2 Wade Murphy, F, Penticton (BCHL), 39gp, 18-32-50 Tucker Poolman, D, Omaha (USHL), 39gp, 10-7-17 '94 Adam Tambellini, F, Surrey (BCHL), 41gp, 27-22-49 Luke Johnson, F, Lincoln (USHL), 31gp, 11-15-26 Jack Rowe, F, Cedar Rapids (USHL), 35gp, 10-11-21 '95 Luke Voltin, F, Des Moines (USHL), 40gp, 5-12-17 Charlie Pelnik, D, Fargo (USHL), 10gp, 0-1-1 Keaton Thompson, D, NTDP U18, 36gp, 2-8-10 '96 Nick Schmaltz, F, Green Bay (USHL), 38gp, 11-20-31 Chris Wilkie, F, NTDP U17, 38gp, 12-14-26 Austin Poganski, F, St Cloud Cathedral (MNHS), 17gp, 18-15-33 Shane Gersich, F, Holy Family (MNHS), 16gp, 14-23-37 Ryan Mantha, D, Sioux City (USHL), 31gp, 0-3-3 Rhett Gardner, F, Moose Jaw (SMAAAHL), 27gp, 21-19-40 '97 Christian Evers, D, Omaha Lancers AAA U16, 18gp, 4-12-16 That 1996 group of forward recruits are really special. Hopefully the majority of them make it to campus, as that will be a fun group to watch.

No doubt. I don't know what Hak did to have our 1997 title taken away, but that is for sure a fire-able offense.

Imagine if we had Roman instead of Brad. <shudder>

He didn't need to write another article. He knew that all the Sioux Sleuths here on ss.com would uncover the truth and report it to the masses!!

But the real question is...will they have as much hockey hair as SCSU?

Umm, maybe because he already wrote an article on it way back when it happened before the season. If you recall, all those players had to sit a game (Kristo sat two) during the season opener. Shows how slowly the judicial system works that the hearing isn't until March...

Thank you! I always appreciate lessons on things I already know. Next up...a lesson on the Gordie Howe Hat Trick and the theory behind the Dump and Chase offensive strategy.

When was his last ring? According to some, if you don't win a national title every three years, the coach should be fired.

You'll have to ask the haters that question.

Huge series for UND. They are currently tied for 4th in the WCHA with UW and MSUM (Mavs have played two more games than both UW and UND though). UW started slowly in the WCHA but has been much better as of late. Hopefully the team that played Sat night vs SCSU shows up for both games against UW. If they can do that, I like our chances for 3-4 points against UW.
