  1. The only reason this might bring some more Miami and Western Michigan fans is that this tournament isn't the CCHA-fest in Detroit. Perhaps because it's something new and different. I guess we'll find out on Friday, right? While not a fan of the Target Center itself, I do think keeping the tournament in the same location year after year will hopefully give it a feel like St Paul and the WCHA Final Five.

I'm at about 30 or so "for-sures" including guests + a few hopefuls...I always count on a few straggles so I'm guessing between 30 and 40 so far... Any lurkers who don't want their name mentioned? Anyone else? PM me and I'll add you into the head-count. Thank you.
  4. More good news...thanks to Siouxman and Mrs Siouxman for helping with getting YaneA a ride to the brunch. She' confirmed that she's a definite "YES" to attend on Saturday.

  6. 7 or 8? Nice work. NDH always delivers the goods come roll-call time! Tom's quite the extrovert but I'm going to make sure he thanks the crew for coming in again this year. I'll make sure the microphone is ready to roll for some introductions and Sioux hockey story-time. Should be a great time Saturday.
  7. No SCSU...no UMD...plenty of tickets available. And I bet Sioux fans scarf 'em up.
  8. I watched the entire game tonight on the NCHC site without any problems.
  9. 1988 - Northeastern beat Maine in the title game. UMass-Lowell and Providence College were the other two semi-finaliats - and Jerry York and Bowling Green won the CCHA playoff title that year. HE quarterfinals and semifinals were decided by the two games/total goals system. Awful.
  10. Big 10 Thursday: Penn State vs Michigan Ohio State vs Michigan State
  11. Atlantic Hockey: Niagara vs Robert Morris Canisius vs Mercyhurst It's a shame that Air Force lost to Niagara today in OT. Bummer.
  12. ECAC: Cornell vs Union College Quinnipiac vs Colgate
  13. HOCKEY EAST: Notre Dame vs UMass-Lowell UNH vs Providence College
  14. WCHA: Bowling Green vs Minnesota State Alaska-Anchorage vs Ferris State
  15. How about any scenarios where SCSU watches the NCAA's instead of resting up for them?
  16. Just not enough horses in the stable this year in Detroit...too many injuries.
  17. Michigan State looked unstoppable today...so cue them losing in the first round.
  18. Throw in North Dakota and UND in with those two and you have an attendance bonanza!
  19. I'm not sure St Cloud would have had enough hotel rooms for all the Sioux fans coming to town, though... This could have been a disaster weekend...with attendance at the WCHA tournament probably beating the NCHC. Ferris State will put a thousand or more fans in the seats in Grand Rapids - Grand Rapids is only about a 45 minute drive from Big Rapids.
  20. Friday afternoon...for sure. It may as well be Denver vs Western Michigan...at Taffy Abel Arena in Sault Ste Marie, MI. Friday night? I hope gfhockey is right.
  21. I saw a team pretty fired up in the first period...and saw some young defensemen make some mental mistakes... Earlier this season, I guaranteed that this team would make it to Target Center - when lots of others had totally given up on them. This isn't the most talented team UND has ever had, but with SCSU and UMD out of the tournament, they have a great opportunity to accomplish something significant this coming weekend. The coaches and team deserve some credit.
