Checking the PWR shows us dropping to a tie for 10. Though, this was before they had posted this win.
Tied for 10th with no bonuses.
Tied for 8th with a 3-2-1 bonus.

ANd not good for us, Prividence beat Maine, so Maine will likely drop out of the top 15 RPI, bonus points gone.
So far they are right at #15, hanging on by a thread.

Wisconsin beat Colorado College 5-0. Wow, very impressed.
5-1. CC scored late in the 3rd.
DU beats UMD 5-4 with a goal in the last 2min.
Good for us. Now we just need to win to get a head of UMD in the standings.

1986 - George Pelawa-UND Recruit
Is Pelawa the player that died in a car accident prior to the 87 season starting?
Sounds familiar.

Ryan Potulny and Danny Irmen were the first to cut their hair, and they took the clippers to about 10 willing teammates, all in the name of unity. Barry Tallackson and Tyler Hirsch are sporting new dye jobs, but the remainder of the team is contemplating a new style.
What about the rest of the team? They're just contemplating it? That doesn't sound like much unity to me....
I'm not really sure haircuts is what they need to get back on track.
And what are the odds that lifemates Potulny and Irmen started the whole ordeal?

15-0 Moorhead over Monticello tonight in MHD. Lee with a hat trick for sure, maybe a couple of assists. Not sure on Vandevelde, for sure got some points, like everyone else on the team.
Someone on USCHO posted the boxscore, so here it is:
FIRST PERIOD: 1, Lee (C. Johnson, Becker) :24. 2, Fisher (Barta) 4:08 (pp). 3, Christian (T. Johnson) 6:23. 4, Fisher (VandeVelde, Clukey) 7:16. 5, Krause (Ammerman, Barta) 10:45. 6, C. Johnson (Ammerman, Barta) 12:59 (sh). 7, Becker (C. Johnson, Ammerman) 16:30.
SECOND PERIOD: 8, Loos (C. Johnson, Becker) 5:36. 9, Fisher (VandeVelde, Clukey) 8:34. 10, Lee (Nitzkorski) 9:03. 11, Deitz (Clukey) 15:13.
THIRD PERIOD: 12, Deitz (Clukey, VandeVelde) 4:47. 13, Christian (Krause, Miller) 9:03. 14, Foss (Deitz) 14:06. 15, Lee (Christian, Miller).

I guess all that Brian needed to break out of his scoring funk was a nice cupcake...

UAA
in Men's Hockey
And this is what it has come to: With a sweep, UAA would enter into a tie with UND at 21 points in the WCHA standings. A UND sweep would bury UAA and all the other 7-10 teams, and would come close to doing the same to UMD, considering their remaining schedule.If UAA sweeps UND and we have a three-way tie for 5th place in the WCHA, that would be crazy. UND's only advantage would be that they have 2 games in hand to both UMD and UAA.
That said, I like the chances of UND this weekend. They have a near full lineup for the first time in ages. Having Murray and McMahon back will help this team tremendously.

Thanks for answering my questions guys!

Final Regular season stats for Mhd and Wrd D1 prospects - (3 Sioux recruits, with the potential for a few more)
MHD
Chris VandeVelde Sr Fc 27-26-53
Jon Ammerman Sr D 9-29-38
Brian Lee Sr D 8-17-25
Lee obviously missed a few games for the WJ tourny. Johnson missed 4 or 5 games and Loos missed a few with injuries.
Warroad
TJ Oshie Sr Fc 30-52-82
Ben Bengston Sr Fw 30-23-53
Kyle Hardwick Sr D 13-40-53
Eric Olimb Sr D 11-34-45
Just a few quick questions for those that are "in the know" with MN HS hockey, but what is with the huge difference in point levels for these two schools? I was led to believe that they are two of the best schools in their sections. Moorhead's leading scorer has 53 pts, while Warroad's leading scorer has almost 30 more points. And I thought that Lee was an offensive dman? Hardwick and Olimb from Warroad have 20 or more points than him. Did he miss that many games due to the WJC's? Heck, Hardwick has the same amount of points that VandeVelde has....
Thanks in advance for your help!

I am not so sure that this is the right time to be facing UAA. The Sea Wolves just shut down the Goofers with their back up goaltender. DeCaro stood on his head and the defense played like they were on the penatly kill the whole night. Talk about God awfull hockey to watch.
If the Sioux get half as many chances as the Gophs had tonight, I hope that they can put more than 2 behind the UAA goalie. That's not a given with our offense though.
But that 2nd UM goal shouldn't have counted anyway, that was a definite skate redirection, good thing it didn't affect the outcome of the game.
-
Regarding the UAA series next weekend, the Sioux may be meeting up with them at the right time injury-wise. Looks like UAA is without their goalie Lawson because of a groin injury, and they are also missing their top two dmen for this weekend's series against the Goofs. No word yet on whether any of the three will be back next weekend for the Sioux series, but it doesn't look good for the Seawolves. You may remember that Lawson stoned the Sioux when the Wolves came to REA.
For the Sioux, if they can get Murray back from injury, as well as McMahon back from his suspension, they should be able to field a full lineup for the first time in a long while (aside from Kaip, of course).

We we use the name Diggler, thats not Dirk Diggler is it? He,he,he,he...
Now that's funny!

Great news!

The updated SSM stats after their weekend in GF for the Midget Tourney. They won all 3 of their games; 5-3 over the Kings, 8-2 over Chicago, and 8-1 over Team Illinois.
04 Taylor Chorney Defense 12 4-27-87 5'11" 180 Hastings, MN 48 4 28 32 50
08 Kyle Okposo Forward 11 4-16-88 6' 195 St. Paul, MN 47 36 32 68 50
09 Jonathan Toews Forward 12 4-29-88 6'1" 180 Winnipeg, MB 46 36 43 79 28
10 Michael Gergen Forward 12 2-17-87 5'11" 185 Hastings, MN 50 45 36 81 82
21 Charles Genoway Forward 12 12-20-86 5'9" 170 Morden, MB 47 17 29 46 36
Gergen still leads Toews by 2 points with 4 games more played.
Okposo's pace has slowed down compared to Toews/Gergen, as he is now 11 pts behind Jonathan.
Chorney was playing again after not playing during last weekend's games.

Press 8 if you know who BringDeanBack and Central for Life are. They are hurting my feelings
Press 10 if you think they are one in the same.

Murray may be back for the UAA trip, or maybe not. He's sure missed a lot of the season. I"ll be there for my second series this year, guess I"ll have to wait unitl next year to see Brady
I would hope for him to be back by the UAA trip.
Hakstol said it was a 4-6 week injury.
After the CC series, the Sioux have had a week off, BSU, DU, another week off, then the UAA series.
So hopefully he will be back by then....
-
Maybe that isn't so bad. How many times this year have the Sioux wasted an odd-man scoring opportunity because someone tries a near impossible pass rather than just shooting the puck?
True, sometimes it is just better to take the shot yourself. Sometimes you can catch the goalie leaning for the pass.

Updated SSM stats after a 9-3 and 8-1 sweeping of Edge School in Calgary:
04 Taylor Chorney Defense 12 4-27-87 5'11" 180 Hastings, MN 45 4 25 29 50
08 Kyle Okposo Forward 11 4-16-88 6' 195 St. Paul, MN 44 33 29 62 50
09 Jonathan Toews Forward 12 4-29-88 6'1" 180 Winnipeg, MB 43 33 41 74 26
10 Michael Gergen Forward 12 2-17-87 5'11" 185 Hastings, MN 47 41 35 76 80
21 Charles Genoway Forward 12 12-20-86 5'9" 170 Morden, MB 44 16 27 43 34
Gergen (UMD) with a HUGE weekend, getting 8 points with 6 goals.
Okposo (Minn) gets one point on the weekend.
Genoway (possible UND recruit ??) gets 3 points.
Toews gets 7 points on the weekend, but just one goal. He must have been pretty busy setting up Gergen, as they are on the same line!
Chorney didn't play either game, not sure if he is injured or if he just had the weekend off.
Gergen leads the team in points with 76, but Toews is right there with him with 74 points.

Besides the elevation always bothers DU ...
The low elevation always seems to affect their lungs...
I sure hope you are right about them coming out firing on all cylinders. It would be nice to see the team that dominated CC (with more goals, of course
). -
BUT, they do have the weakest remaining schedule in the WCHA. I believe Wisconsin is their only TUC left. Then if they finish third or higher, they'll be playing another weak opponent in the first round. I get a feally that those PWR numbers will be slipping for them. I just don't see enough teams that will pass them by. Us included.
Defeating weak opponents in the conference tourney doesn't count toward a team's RPI, so there would be no affect on their PWR.
From the USCHO PWR page:
If a team defeats a weak opponent, it is possible for its RPI to go down despite the win. Starting in 2003-04, if this happens in a team's conference tournament, that game can be thrown out of the RPI calculation for that team. -
He said there was a possibility that Brady Murray could play against Denver, but as of Monday morning, it was doubtful.
Thanks for the heads up PCM.
Speedy healing to Brady from today until Thurs then, I guess.
I hope he heals up so that he can play, otherwise the lines will look pretty bare without Murray, McMahon, and Kaip playing.

It seems strange, given the scoring he is doing. Many of the BCHL message board posters scoff at Reaney, and make fun of him being fat, etc.
Another Fats Fournier?

Is anyone going to watch SSM this weekend at the Ralph for the Grand Forks Midget Tourney? According to their schedule on the SSM website, they will be playing three games total, one each day Fri-Sun.
Would be nice to see Toews, Chorney, etc play before they join the collegiate ranks.
