STEVE KERR! I am so old-school that I remember when Arizona fans would yell that when he scored. That was awesome.

Agreed. I gave Jonathan an earful about Target Center but told him because of the sweet ticket prices, I was going to put the LOVE of the team ahead of my HATE for the venue. I am excited to see North Dakota play Friday night. Anyone else hopping on the light rail south of town on Friday afternoon?

Nice. I gave him the link to SiouxSports.com and expect to see a new registration here soon. If you do call between now and tomorrow to get tickets, tell him you saw it on this site.

No, under 2 is free but they need to sit on your lap (obviously).

Shameless bump. 719-219-5755 Jonathan at the NCHC ticket office.

A no-brainer: GREEN!

Hell has frozen over, ladies and gentlemen. MafiaMan is returning to the Target Center! Thank you @sprig for posting the phone number for the folks at the NCHC ticket office in Atlanta. I talked to Jonathan a few minutes ago and booked my seats for Friday's games. Great fun talking to him - he knows his hockey and the Fighting Sioux Hawks!

Loved that skit, but it didn't quite happen like that. The best part was at the end when one of the guys says "Uh...I tink I still godda go with Rick Mears." He was promptly ridiculed by the rest of the gang because Coach Dikka was a no-brainer.

Polyester - like today's style of jerseys. Check your PMs.

Red just signed a two-year extension last February - thru 2019. Smooth move if Maine has indeed given him the axe.

Join us at The Hogg on Saturday morning!

Nope, sorry, some things you just gotta hear live and in-person.

Wow, surprised to read this. Dean Blais has always been easily approachable whenever I have run into him - at home or on the road. Had a chance to exchange a few words with him at the 1998 regional in Ann Arbor. Good story. Enjoy your retirement, coach, and thanks for your efforts in "restoring the glory" at North Dakota. The job you did bringing that program back was incredible.

Thanks for posting that, MNBen. I think that's the correct way to do things - asking the regular season champion when they'd like to play. Kudos to the NCHC!

I agree - but we're assuming that the #1 seed (Denver) was given the option of playing the early game or the late game. I don't know how the decision was made on the game-times.

It was sarcasm. When UND plays at 4:00 pm and the Gophers play at 7:00, we b*tch about favoritism for the home team. When the re-shuffling of games is in our favor because most of us prefer 7:00 pm games to 4:00 pm games, we don't complain at all.

Yea, they will jump up in price from "YOU WANT HOW MUCH?" to "HOLY EFFIN' SH*T!"

Have I ever told you about how I cost North Dakota the regional game against Michigan in 1998?

But if MSU and Michigan can each respectively score first, the dozens of fans in attendance will have The Joe rockin'! #GoodSeatsStillAvailable
