Neither of those teams can hold a candle to Mercyhurst though...

So you’re sayin’ there’s a chance on the black jerseys tonight being worn by the HOME team instead of the visitors, eh?

If Wilkie transferred to UND from Minnesota, scored a goal at Mariucci, er, 3M Arena, then proceeded to do a strip tease at center ice to celebrate it, SiouxSports would laugh its collective a** off at him showing up the Gopher team and fans. But when it’s against North Dakota in Grand Forks, it’s, “HOW DARE HE DISRESPECT US LIKE THAT!”

OUT: whining about puck arrangement in the shape of an ‘L’ by ice arena staff at Canisius College. IN: whining about a former benchwarmer popping his jersey after scoring a goal against his old team.

Never left a game early in my life, Grampa! Now tell me some more knee-slappers while we watch “Hee-Haw.”

Don’t forget your pre-game nap before tonight’s game...wouldn’t want you dozing off late in the 3rd period.

NDSU fans: “We just won our 7th title in 8 seasons!” UND fans: “YOU GUYS THINK YOU’RE ALABAMA!” I have plenty of NDSU fan friends and family...I don’t know a single one who thinks the Bison would come within 4 touchdowns of Alabama. They all just enjoy being an FCS bigshot with a chance to beat a decent FBS team. None would claim that the team could hang with Alabama, as much as we like to whine about it...

The Christmas Tree wasn’t literally lit up last night. Canisius College, however, was.

UND: 1 win, 1 OT loss at home. UNO: 1 loss, on the road. Let’s see how all four games for each squad play out first.

Maybe it’s too much to expect that the team come out and take a team like Colorado College out behind the woodshed for a night, eh? Yes, it’s about winning, but if you think tonight’s effort will be enough to beat Denver, St Cloud, Duluth, or Western Michigan, I will respectfully disagree.

Well, you keep wanting to celebrate a “big” home win over 8-win Colorado College, yet the “worst team in the NCHC” has only 2 less wins than that and lost a hard-fought 1-0 game at Denver tonight. NoDak might wanna step up its game or that Omaha trip next weekend might be another road disaster.

And if it turned out to be the game-winner, then it’s cool?

How would he know at the time it was a game-winner or not? The only way to know that would be to have the goal be in OT.

Canisius College got lit up like my Christmas tree tonight by someplace called Mercyhurst...when’s the ticker tape parade for a home OT win vs Colorado College?

Their power play has a 25% success rate ao far this season...

To be fair, Wilbur, his neck wasn’t broken that badly...

NorthDakotaHockey?

You’re kidding, right? The “Fire Hak” threads were on fire after an opening night loss to Bemidji State...

Well, the good thing about these tough games against powerhouse programs like Canisius and CC is that they should help the squad when they play patsies like UMD, Denver, Western Michigan, and St Cloud State comin’ down the stretch...

Well, the team is 1 game over .500 now, so all is well, right?

Don’t say mean things.

Whew! At least the players only meeting can be postponed tonight.

Well, to be fair, their cell phone battery life is low...

That’s gonna be a “no” from me, dawg...

So we don’t require a shootout tonight because the boys won the SOG contest, right?
