i played around with the pairwise predictor... and if all of the favorites win their games in all the leagues, except UND loses to Wisco and St. Cloud, the Sioux drop to a tie at 14th with New Hampshire. That doesn't make me feel too happy. Although, it would drop them to a 4 seed and send the Gophers to Wisco most likely. I also checked and there are several instances where UND could easily be a 5 or 6 seed without a lot of upsets happening, which also could send the Gophers to a different seed and bring Miami or BU to the Ralph. Throw BC in with BU and we'll just have a big ol Beanpot rematch.

yes, but the gophers are fully capable of dominating the bulldogs.

As much as I love UMD and am extremely glad they beat Denver, I have to think that the ultimate goal for the Sioux is to win the Final Five. The best chance for that to happen is if SCSU beats UMD and then Geophert steals a game against the Gophers. Three games in three days two weeks in a row is pretty tough to do, and if UND beats Wisco, then the Sioux would get a tired SCSU team. Plus, the Gophers would then lose to Wisco, as Elliott steals a game and so the Gophers begin their post-season spiral into a first round ncaa loss, to bemidji.

if UMD won the final five, they'd become a TUC and would actually help UND out.

yes, they were pretty much into the ncaa's with the w last night. this secured their spot. buy away sioux fans, buy away.

wow, im at work and come back to see the dogs are taking it to denver. could i get any happier right now?

zajac scores on the pp... picks it out of the air under review right now, but should be good.

if that was the only issue, then the place would be packed. but not all students are die-hard, and not all students can afford $15 for a ticket. and not all students are even in grand forks.

wow. that's clutch.

spring break and the extra cost for students. tickets are not included in student season ticket package. student tickets for the game are $15 and you have reserved seats, so you don't get to sit with your friends unless you all get tickets at the same time.

we win the comparisons over Mich with sioux w tonight. with a sioux w and a cc loss, we can over-take them as well.

Bemidji with the 4-2 win. Moves them into the NCAA's, most likely to play the Gophers at the Ralph. Looks like it could be a nice home-crowd for Bemidji... and with some luck, they could beat the Gophers.

Bemidji upset Alabama Huntsville last night in OT... which means they play Niagara this afternoon (2 centreal) for the CHA championship. If Bemidji wins, they become a TUC and UND gains two more wins against a quality opponent, including the all important road win. I've always liked the beavers, but today everyone needs to be a Bemidji fan. A sioux win tonight, combined with a play-in-game win, could bump us up to a 5 or 6 seed, in which case the Gophers would probably be sent elsewhere.

omgmomgomgmg goal, yes omg goal under review.

du scores, 3-2 denver. flukey goal.

ziggy with some big saves to keep it tied up.

du powerplay, call by the ar, campion apparently didn't call it on a scramble in front of the net.

very very very good to see... keep it up dogs.

we moved up to 8th after the L yesterday, and drop to 13 after the win?

no clue on the home stat 1:09 left. face-off in sioux zone. gotta get some work done, have a good night everyone.

2:30 left, 4-1 sioux UND just playing some dump and retreat. hopefully they try and get oshie the hatty.

actually, thats just in the last 20 years, since a 3-game series was implemented in the wcha.

sioux are .500 in playoff series when they lose the first game.

hakstol should put kaip on the pp and stick him right in front of the net so he can get that 1st goal.

mavs penatly for slashing parise's stick. 2 min pp for sioux.
