I think it's only the fourth year of the team's existence. I think next year we will be a lot better than this year. I think once we have the same number of scholarships as our opponents, we will be able to compete more. I think people who criticize the coaching and the team have no idea how tough it is to start an NCAA team and have fans expect you to dominate right out of the gate.

why didnt you just title the thread "let me tell you all about ndsu and how they will dominate d1-aa"

i could be wrong... but i thought a team can't drop in it's pwr by beating a weaker opponent in a conference tournament. it was one of those things added after a couple teams several years ago would have potentially dropped out of the NCAA tourney by sweeping their home series of the playoffs. so even if UND plays mankato, i don't think it matters if the drop out as a tuc, because UND can't drop anyway.

I've started making Sioux Jerseys for NHL 2006 on computer. I've got the green one done and am working on the black and white ones. My friend suggested I make jerseys for all 10 teams in the league. It takes about half an hour per jersey, so I was curious if anyone else knew how to do them, or if anyone here as extensive experience with photoshop and would be willing to help. I'll post the picture of the green one in-game after i make a couple adjustments. Thanks,

feel free to add me, just send my bill to siouxman.

College hockey is not the NHL. Different rules, different ways of handling things.

i bet you and the avatar have private "gooning" lessons, so you can get your fighting fix anytime she steps on the ice

so you'll agree that prpich is a cheap, classless, no-talen turd? and toews too? cause he made an illegal trip. what about oshie, smaby, lee, and every sioux player who has ever done anything illegal during the game. even the holy one spirko is apparently a cheap, classless no-talent turd because he cheated.

they dont have to catch alabama hunstville... they just have to beat them in one game (the CHA championship game.) Neither UAH or Bemidji will get into the NCAA's by their record, they have to do it by winning the CHA Tournament. If history is any indication as to who that will be, I'd like to see Bemidji come to the Ralph. I consider them the UND of the CHA.

i'm excited to see who that CHA team is. If Bemidji shows up, I think they have a legitimate shot as anyone to upset the Gophers. If it was a three, five, or seven game series the Gophers would take it easy, but because it's just one game... the Beavers could do what they almost did to Denver last year. They always seem to play WCHA teams tough, so you just never know.

i definitely wouldnt want the sioux to face the gophers in the regional. why have the gophers get humiliated on just a regional scale, when it could be done on national tv actually, the gophers are scary to me. they can be beat, but i'd rather take the easier road to the frozen four. plus, i've got tickets to the frozen four, so i want to see the sioux there... and i think there's a better chance w/o the gophers at the REA.

what do you think about d then? I'd think Lee or Chorney have to get one of the spots on the rookie team. They certainly can't have both (I haven't kept track of how other Rookie D around the league are doing), but it'd be pretty amazing to have two forwards and two d-men on the rookie team. edit: I did a little looking up and here's the Conference D scoring for rookies: Name School GP PPG G-A-TP Chris Butler Denver 24 0.71 6-11-17 Brian Lee UND 26 0.46 1-11-12 Shane Lovdahl UAA 24 0.42 3- 7-10 Taylor Chorney UND 26 0.38 3- 7-10 Brian Kilburg MSUM 22 0.41 1- 8- 9 Josh Meyers UMD 17 0.47 2- 6- 8 Jason Garrison UMD 26 0.31 1- 7- 8

Here's a quick overview of the points each player has gotten... i put in two sioux players because it's a sioux msg board. Points are WCHA only- Kessel: 5v5 PP SH Goals 3 8 1 Assists 9 11 0 --------------------------------- Total 12 19 1 Oshie: 5v5 PP SH Goals 7 5 0 Assists 4 6 0 ----------------------------------- Total 11 11 0 Toews: 5v5 PP SH Goals 6 6 0 Assists 4 1 0 ----------------------------------- Total 10 7 0

going into the series, a split was expected and i wouldn't feel so bad about it. but after getting the w in the 1st game, a split seems so dissappointing. games not over yet, but pick it up sioux.

time for hakstol to call a timeout, bring a vcr onto the bench and show the team a 1 minute collection of the sioux's greatest 3-period comebacks.

w00... i got up and left again and they go an score!!!

quick... what does the mankato w and the st cloud tie do for our pwr?

tech and st cloud tied... that's definitely good for us. with a w tonight, that'd put us more points ahead of scsu. let's get it going sioux. start taking names.

scsu has still lost (hopefully with a tech win tonight) 3 of their last 4 to some traditional bottom feeders. it's just disappointing UND didnt start the swoon for them.

mankato just beat wisco 7-3. mankato with four awesome straight wins. i just hope we don't play them in the first round of the playoffs.

i'm at work and i was actually away from my desk and working, but i was still able to hear it. i went over to my desk and updated siouxsports and suddenly on the radio they scored the 1st goal. then two minutes ago i was away from my desk, just came over and updated and two seconds later chorney scores. i'll be back in about 30 seconds.

wow... johnny boy is on a freaking roll. toews from stafford, 2-1 du. lets get it going boys.

6-0 msu over wisco... wow sconnie looks really really bad.

so what you're saying is that because of paukovich's past, he deserves everything he gets until he can't play hockey anymore? how does that make anything better? does matt greene deserve to be hacked and cheapshotted until he can't play anymore, because he got a dui? he was putting hundreds of people's lives at risk when he drove the car drunk. or does that not count because it wasn't on the ice? well then what about the full speed elbow to the head of the scsu player a couple years ago. surely, an elbow to your head could put that persons life at risk... so should matt be pummeled until he can't play? all i'm saying is that the paukovich stuff needs to be let go. he's a kid. he makes mistakes. he's made some cheap shots on the ice, but how long will the retaliating go on for? how long is it ok to rack him in the balls for?

talking to the hearld reporter... he said it's the same deal as last night. he didn't know that cities outside of gf got the game, so he assumes that we'll be able to get it tonight in fargo and other fssn areas too.
