"This is not college hockey" the announcer says. Radke definately made Testicle his be-otch that night!

If you UND can weahter the 1st 10-15 minutes, pack your bags people. DU will be running on pure energy to start the game. At some point, playing 90 minutes of hockey yesterday will take it's toll on them, especially if the play stays 5x5 most of the game. My 3 keys to the game: 1) In Dell, we trust! He will have to be very good, especially early. 2) Limit our penalties and make this as much of a 5x5 game as possible. 3) Just score 1 more goal than DU...I got it 4-2 UND...the march to the X is on! Gregiore will be a beast this game IMO.

Totally agree...UND kept their composure...especially after the Nelson hit. I thought RPI was reckless and undisciplined for most of the game. 26 year old Canadians >>> Smart kids!

That would work too. I just think in a close grind it out game, Dickin provides some grit on the walls and IMO really complimented Kristo in the F5 last week. Gleason just doesn't do much for me at forward.

He's a difference maker! He was yesterday and will be today as well. Side note, I'd be shocked if Nelson plays. He looked like he was out cold for a little bit. I say Rowney centers Kristo and Dickin and Davidson goes back with Mario and Rodwell.

For me, it's this simple...make sure JG is in the lineup!

Where was that?

Was Anderson or Shep reffing that game? Another completely blown call in college hockey...pathetic.

With the snow this week, it is now the 4th snowiest winter on record in Fargo, bumped last year to 8th all-time and bumped '08-'09 winter to 5th if my memory is correct. In the last 3 years, we have had 3 of the top 10 snowiest winters EVER!!! Lake Agassiz is starting to refill herself...

Great news for the ND local markets!

Just got done playing the "Valley" course at TPC Sawgrass. Playing the "Stadium" course tomorrow and then fly home Thurs. Still working out the logisctics with the boss, my wife, if a quick turnaround to GB is feasible. Will try to work on another "kitchen pass" that would include taking my 2 girls...for any man that is married with the above mentioned scenerio, you know what my odds are. Oh...then there is that work thing. "So you're saying there's a chance..."

So JG was interviewed on the Wed. 16th for the team's weekly Q&A press conference then then he's out for the tourney?! This isn't adding up well IMO.

Wasn't able to make it to the X. Four letter word did me in...work! That was the best game I've watched all year. Had to be great fun to be there live. Big win! Just one observation...IMO Kristo was one of the 2-3 best players on the ice the 1st 3-40 minutes...then the needle went to E. What a performance after a 6 week hiatus!

That CC PP was sick...tic tac tic tac goal. Very nice. UND carried play for 16 of the 20 minutes...need to continue that.

Just settling in to watch on TV. Kristo will play well. No JG is going to be tough to overcome...he has been on fire lately. Pony line will have to flex their muscles tonight.

He lives across the street from me. Has a Sioux a flag waving in the wind. So your point is...

If Kristo can play, Nelson centering and Gleason at wing would be a rock solid 3rd line...totally forgot about Gleason. His 1st go around at forward earlier this year was brutal IMO, but his most recent time there has been a 180. That line could be a huge mismatch.

Best analysis of this team I've read in weeks. Pinch when one shouldn't, skate and carry the puck when one should pass it, or just make a poor positional play is going to cost this team if anything does. The Pony line has been rolling for one reason. JG and his line has been rolling for one reason. Mario and his line have been more than solid for one reason. Our D-man have been expceptional lately for one reason. They all know their roles and the stay within those roles and play it simple every shift. Free lancing, regardless of talent, causes structure and discipline to crumble. If Genoway can keep it simple and play within the structure of the the flow of the game, same if Kristo plays again, UND will be fine. There aren't going to be 6-1, 8-0 games from here on out. One ill advised play when it shouldn't be attempted or made IMO is probably one of the only ways this team gets beat from here on out.

You, sir, get my +1 for the day.

Correct but which way do you think most are leaning now? Let's see...Kelly can't "remember" with Douple and has "no idea whatsoever" on the potential costs to clean up the Ralph from the Sioux issue. Now he is shipping people to Bismarck to help get the name and logo finished off. You do the math...

All I can say is..."WOW"! This is not the UND I attended...truly sad. And Kelly needs to go! If you think the Sioux nickname and logo are a stain on the university, how do you describe this clown?! I have "officially" decided I will continue to support UND athletics finacially but will not give one more dime to the university in general as long as Kelly is in charge.

All I had to read in the Forum this AM was that this "intellect" was a professor, an assistant at that, to disregard his/her opinion. An assistant prof at NDSU? What the %#*@ is that? Same playing field as head Home Ec. teacher at Central Cass HS??? This letter shows the prevailing "logic" from the elitist academia at UND, in this state and in this nation regarding anything they see a not being PC. It is just down right pathetic that this drivil continues to get print in our local papers.

Just 8800 for hockey?? And you are going to throw UND, with the best traveling fan base not playing in the own backyard, and Notre Dame plus UMD there. Place will be packed and the Scottrade Center will sit empty. Michigan and DU have no following. I was in Denver a few years back for the West regional and the Michigan "faithful" were few and far between. UNO would bring in a few, but overall the St. Louis attendence would be awful.

What about SR??? I find it so ironic that people like you, Jeanotte and the rest of the anti-nickname crowd has not uttered boo about the obvious trampling of the NA's rights on the SR reservation. "Racism...hostile...abusive..." Credibilty is zero for you folks for not having the stones to call out and take on the abusive power of the SR tribal council for not allowing the voices of their own people to be heard as you all have over your preceived issue with the logo and nickname. One tribe approval should be ok with the NCAA IMO especially when a majority of the SR Sioux live in SD, but hypocrisy is the NCAA's middle name. This will ultimately IMO go to a statewide general election vote of some kind and it will show overwhelming support from the people of SR and Sioux county...unfortuntely it probably won't matter. Democracy at it's finest?!?!?

Seems like Moy and everyone else has UND in Green Bay. Selfishly I want them in St. Louis. With my two brothers in MO, it would be fun to get toghether with them and have all our kids cheering loudly for the Sioux. Now being a Packer's fan, I could easily kill time in Green Bay in between game...Packer's Hall of Fame, Lambeau Field and pro shop...
