ECAC…WOOF!

What’s Hakstol’s secret these days? Is the Fountain of Youth in Seattle?

Be careful what you wish for.

Never mind UND at #10…who’s the homer who has UCONN at #1?

Back on topic, does anyone seriously think “Brass Bonanza” would be a good swap?

Anyone under the age of 50: “Grampa, who were Paul Simon and Burl Ives?”

Don’t give his kids any ideas!

Why would you shave your bulls anyways?

Please, Tempe, just blast Arizona full of buckshot and put Ol Coyote out of his misery. Move the team!

I bet the number of Omaha travelers is down due to the number of folks who just dropped a ton of cabbage in Sin City.

Dare I suggest that the anti-Hawks crowd is so full of venom that Engelstads would win in a landslide?

The Engelstad family in the All Things Fighting Sioux group on Facebook loved it.

Now that you mention it, have you ever seen the Crimson Tide run onto the football field with their school’s biggest donor’s name on the back of their jerseys? Just curious.

Nope, I think this university and REA in particular do more than enough to kiss the a** of its long-deceased biggest donor. The old pregame light show with 23’s flying all over the ice was over the top early on, now it continues 20 years after the man’s death with his name and number on the back of jerseys worn for 15:00 of pre-game warmups.

So I’m not alone in thinking the same way… You can find t-shirts with the names of legendary hockey alumni like Murray, Belfour, Oshie, Toews, Parise, etc. on the back at the SiouxShop…along with ENGELSTAD 23. The Sioux “legends” bobble head collection also includes our school’s most famous backup goalie. I had to explain to my kids two weeks ago the two retired numbers…one to honor the tragic loss of a player and the other to honor a guy who donated a ton of money to build the arena. The ENGELSTAD jerseys on the ice are it for me. Over the top hero-worship. I appreciate his financial gift to UND as much as anyone else - absolutely amazing - but this isn’t the ENGELSTAD UNIVERSITY hockey program.

So being as I brought it up in another post, I want to ask people here: What is your take on the ENGELSTAD warmup jerseys from Saturday night?

And had they lost to DU after holding the lead late in that game…Berry’s seat would be as hot as an oven right now.

Definitely no Sunday morning mimosas or what was that other thing again?

So you had no doubt in the semi-final against Denver? C’mon!

North Dakota might want to realize that everyone seems to bring their A game against them… How about we spark the team by introducing a new set of jerseys for fans to slobber over? That should divert the attention of some folks for a while.

Except it wasn’t a win. We celebrated a tie. And the crowd went wild like the team won. And they shot off fireworks. But by all means, let’s bag on ASU for being over the top.

You obviously didn’t see North Dakota celebrate a meaningless OT shootout “win” over Quinnipiac a few weeks ago…
