I don't recall a game when I saw more UND players with there eyes looking up at the rafters because they were on their backs. First time I've seen Oshie get totally knocked around for a whole game. BC out-hit and physically out played us! Wouldn't have predicted that. But did think we'd lose by 5 goals either!

Seeing both teams play live: BC should roll Sat. I'll go 5-1.

Another great year that just came up alittle short by another group of great young men.

This is where you again come across as one of the biggest idiots to troll this site. I am here in Denver as well and if we were both at the same game yesterday, there is no way you can pin that game on JPL. He was not good but to single him out as not being a "big game goaltender" shows your ignorance. He got absolutely miminal help in front of him.

ND was much better than I thought they would be. Without their top scorer, they made the plays they needed to offensively and were solid for the most part on D. Michigan can flat out skate! This was a game where neither theam got good goaltending. At least Michigan came out with some fire and grit to start the 2nd unlike our boys. Down 3-0 vs. 4-0 after 1 period isn't a lot different but I saw different resovle from Michigan to make it a game that I didn't see from our guys.

JPL was not the reason UND lost. He didn't play well but who did. Genoway was absolutely horrible and Finley was not far behind. They had a combined -7 rating for the game. Pathetic! No offense other than a couple minute stretch early in the 1st. The dike broke early and often and then the boys bailed instead of trying to plug the hole! To see no fight as they came out to begin the 2nd was the most disappointing thing of all!

Sitting there watching the game was embarrassing!! For the Sioux to come out in the second period with absolutely no life was pathetic. You want to see a team pack it in, watch your DVR or TiVo because it won't be on ESPN Classic. The Sioux fans support was tremendous. To totally lay an egg by a team that talked about being on a misssion is inexcusable! To lose is one thing but to be taken to the woodshed because you can't or won't strap it on is another. First time I have seen a Hak coached team up and quit!!

Word on the street in Denver is Trupp is NOT likely to play tomorrow. Not ruled out but not likely.

My daughter and I will be in Sec. 206 Row 1.

No, I have 2 pair of club seat sets (4 tickets total) but in different sections. Would be a 4 for 4 swap. My 2 pair are not 4 together and that is what I'm looking for--4 tickets side by side by side...

At the West regional last year. Very few Mich fans. I know this the F4 so I would say 40% UND, 30% Mich, 15% BC and 15% ND--do most of their fans even know they have a hockey team. It is Red Sox season, no one in Boston/NE care one bit about BC right now.

AZ: What are odds of trading 2 pair of club tickets (sec 200) straight up for 4 together in the 100s?? You seem to have a good guage on this stuff. Thanks.

I'm with you. I have secured 2 good seats at face, but need 4 and would like them together. Will trade my 2 and cash for 4 good seats together on Thursday at the Pepsi Can.

I would disagree. From Craigslist, Stubhub and all the online ticket brokers, there are tickets for sale everywhere. People are just asking too much. Don't think that if these folks don't get what they are asking, they are going to say "ok I'll just go now to the games". They are trying to sell them for a reason. Had one guy on Craigslist wanting $500/ticket for 4. Now he's e-mailing me and is down to $1250 for all 4. I told him to call me on Wed. night when I get to Denver as he'll still have them and we can work something out!! I get 4 tickets every year to a game at Lambeau at a good/reasonable rate. Don't tell me these tickets are harder to get than those!

Let me know when courses open and we'll come north to play ?

With blizzard like conditions in Fargo today, won't be calling anything golf around here for a while!

Ok Mr. Half Empty!

My gut is that Marto plays Thurs. over LaPoint. Much faster to match up with BC's speed.

A good friend of mine is a retired physical science teacher from Bismarck. He still does some work with the state's geologists and the geologists said they are calling that area around Williston, Parshall, ect..."little Saudi"! The untapped oil reserve I guess is unbelievable.

Mine too.

Had the exact same scenerio happen to me yesterday as well...buyer beware!!

Been negotiating with a DU ticketholder who I bought tickets from for last year's West regional. He is being less than enjoyable to work with this time around. Said he saw on Craigslist-Boston that tickets were $500+ each. I told him Denver isn't Boston and you are one of thousands trying to unload tickets in town so don't play that card. If you guys who have been to the F4 before say there will be tickets on game day, I'm going to trust you!

Thank you!!

For negotiating reasons, any one know face value for 1 strip of tickets (tickets to both Thurs. and Sat.) for Sections in the 100's???

With all that being said above...I agree. No way Martens sits. Again the wrench is if Marto goes to forward and/or Trupp plays. I think Marto over LaPoint at D and Trupp plays. With a small quick team like BC you need a physical line that plays smart. Radke, Zajac and Malone can do that. I like VV with Trupp and Martens. That is a very good 3rd line.
