UND85

"In Bob I Trust." Last year you were right on for us with Price Line for the Regional in Madison and it was great. It's worth it to explore the priceline route first before you book. Glad we did. Thanks Bob, hope to see you at a game this year!

Last year we stayed at the Raddison which is also where the players stayed. It's all connected by tunnels from there to the hockey arena. The pool wasn't great but we were there to watch hockey and it was our 100th day of marriage. That day also marked Hak's 100th win the same day. Pretty cool. When we were walking through the tunnels to that game we met the coaches walking there too talking shop. Staying downtown near the game is nice to bar hop afterwards.

I hope since they got new home uniforms they'll be selling all the old ones. I liked how they did it a few years ago with the Swift jerseys up for auction on the internet. Gave people that aren't able to attend home games a chance to bid. I hope to see that word Sioux attached to the ND forever.

. In Duluth, We're in Section 27 Row 7 for both nights. We'll be celebrating our 1st anniversary on Nov.23rd. We want a Sioux victory.

I had heard that the Gopher/SCSU were for sale on line after a day or two.

I went over after work and picked up some more too for the SCSU series. Still some room in section 210. Tickets $30 a piece. On another note SCSU didn't let people buy tickets on ticketmonster for the Gopher series. Instead you had to buy them at the ticket office. There weren't many left either for the Jan. series but some for the Oct. game in St.Cloud. They had a deal, buy a Gopher ticket and Robert Morris ticket for $35.

It's amazing the price went up that much compared to the other prices in the league. I just bought tickets for the SCSU-Sioux game and it is $30 this year compared to $25 from last year. Only paying $16 at Mankato and $25 at UMD when they play the Sioux. We're going to watch the Gopher/Sioux game on the internet this year. If the rest of the league ever raised prices that high I think we'd end up having to watch all the games on the net.

Any chance you'll be doing your fantasy wcha hockey league again? That really made last season a lot more fun. I know you put a ton of time into it and it is truly appreciated.

SCSU tickets go on sale Sept.22 @ 9:00 a.m. Section #210 is a good section, the end we shoot at twice.

I'm planning on getting tickets for Duluth for the Nov.21-22 games. Does anyone remember what end we shoot as twice? I'm thinking it's the end with sections 20-28. Driving back from there last year on the ice has erased my memory of where we sat. UMD SEATING CHART

Thanks for the great tip!

Speaking of the Wild, has anyone on this site ever noticed where the visiting teams enter the X from the street before the game? I'm hoping to go down this year and want to get a few things signed by some of the visiting players. Thanks for any help.

SINGLE GAME TICKETS FOR TEAMS THE SIOUX PLAY GO ON SALE ON SCSU*SEPT.15 (if you get tickets section 210 is on the end the Sioux shoot at twice and it's right next to the section that they give the visiting team. (Also has backs on the seats.) UMD *SEPT.29 MSU * OCT.1

I would like to thank Tim Oshie for his continued support of UND Hockey. Thanks Tim!

We drove up for the autograph session but only 4 players could be there for that. One of the Marvins had passed away and a lot of the celebrities went up for the funeral. Signing were Smaby,Porter, JP Lammy and Oshie. I didn't see any results or hear about the golfing the following day. Did anyone on this forum play in it? TJ said he was going to be #74 for the Blues.

Does anyone know what dates the turf that they removed in 2007 was used? I got a small piece of it and was just wondering.Thanks (? - 2007)

That is true. Very good Whistler. I knew Jay and he was an outstanding football player and person while at UND. Last I heard he was back in PA. By the way, what was your score on the quiz? If it was low you can add a few points if you graduated from UND. Also can add one point if you can sing the school song.

Already planning a trip up to UMD and watching both the men and women in action. It would fun to see more double headers in the future.

It was great seeing some good hockey and was a welcome relief from some of the heat we had a couple of days. We attended 3 nights of it. Talked to Jerry York from BC last night during one of the games. Lots of college coaches in town. Saw the Don and his crew there too.

I don't know about anyone else but I've heard DC is nice in April. I'm ready for a "March on Washington" in April of 09.

I believe Joe stayed one more year because he wanted to play 2 games in Washington Capitals arena in a Sioux uniform before he plays there as a pro.
