Well, there's Jake Allen from the Blues who did it just a few weeks ago...

MAF is an obsession....you are my obsession...

Puck never went in, Gopher fans!

Please, Ottawa, please. It's for the children...

Actually, I kind of enjoyed the years WITHOUT Minnesota in the tournament...

Is it possible that UMD and SCSU fans - and the two Denver fans who made the trip to the X every year - are as unhappy with Target Center as some of us?

So if Denver, UMD, St Cloud State, and North Dakota were all in the NCHC Frozen Face-Off at the Xcel Energy Center, it wouldn't be quite the same because the jersey patches say NCHC on them instead of WCHA? There were several years of no Gophers at the Final Five and the tournament didn't miss a beat.

So, to reiterate, Target Center is a better location because there are more places to drink before and after the games. I must be losing my damn mind because I thought it was all about the hockey atmosphere. Minneapolis doesn't have a clue that a hockey tournament is even going on during the NCHC weekend. In St Paul, you're the main event. That alone make it better across the river. Want to go enjoy the bar and restaurant atmosphere in Minneapolis? Take the light rail. It'll save you $$$ on parking.

Such as? And, please let it not be the "night life" after the hockey game.

Is that a shot at me? It sounds like a shot at me! You know, you sure sound a lot like that DaveK character who has been around here a long time. What's your take on slew-footing?

Who's Dave? I thought we were talking about Roosevelt83?

Fleury shut-out: "Greatest Penguins goalie ever. Maybe the greatest in the NHL. Ever." Murray shut-out: "Meh. Anyone could do that with the Penguins line-up in front of him."

The Ducks are easily becoming the NHL's most-hated team. What a gong show when they're losing.

The photos of Finland's and Germany's women's Olympic hockey teams?

Jeremy Roenick apparently a huge Ducks fan...

A Nashville vs Ottawa Stanley Cup Finals will have my TV viewership for every game. Love the way these teams play.

Nobody held a gun to the owner's head and forced him to offer those obscene contract amounts, did they?

Pump it Up...Wilbur?

To the folks to spit tacks when they hear the name "Hakstol," yes. Back on topic, has women's hockey been reinstated yet?

SiouxSports.com in the year 2047: "Boy, grab a seat on Grampa's lap and let me tell you about how Hakstol could never win the championship at UND..."

Soooo...which one is it?

1967 called. They would like to contract the Pittsburgh Penguins and California Seals too.

C'mon, Dave, gimme a break...

That could have been our lunch had "Sundogs" been chosen, so I'll survive with pepperoni and Fighting Hawks just fine, thank you.
