Seems like a long time ago that the NCHC was touting the fact that UND, St Cloud, Miami, and Western Michigan were NCAA tournament teams...now it might be a one-team-only conference come selection show day.

According to Starman last night, UND's top power play line is among the best in the country.

Wasn't the lightning an issue today too?

All the more reason to end the outdoor game farce.

Bemidji State finished off a nice sweep in Sault Ste Marie tonight...they will be ready for next weekend.

Maine absolutely pounded BU today at Fenway Park...the Black Bears potted four goal in the first period!

"Uhhh...Dan...if UND wins tonight, could you NOT say 'circle of sticks'?" "Sure thing, boss. But why?"

No capital letters...one mis-placed period...word spelled wrong...solid effort on my part.

Cue gfhockey: team still. sucks all hail hakstol one goal win against werst team

...and you can't spell Sacred Heart without your dad!

You've got ten seconds left...to the traditional circle of sticks! Woot woot!

I would light you up like the Griswold house in Chicago at Christmas-time, Wilbur!

CC has played 20 games this year...if this holds up, 14 of those will have been decided by 2 goals or less.

2 goals and 1 beauty of an assist in this past Wednesday night's broomball win, beeyotch.

I knew you would catch on LOL!

The Seahawks are a good team...but the blue jerseys would look infinitely better with their white or grey pants.

So you are in favor of replacing 'stick salute' with 'traditional circle of sticks'? Surely, you can't be serious.

On KFAN's Beyond the Pond today, when asked about the new hockey conference make-up this year, St Cloud Bob Motzko was quite blunt in saying "it is what it is." Hardly a ringing endorsement of the Big 10 and NCHC. I'm paraphrasing here but Motzko also made the point that college hockey used to pay attention to its fans and that that's not the case anymore.

Roger that!

Frozen4Sioux, YaneA, and bigskyvikes...we'll be in touch. Payments have been a little slow this time...I see some PM's with payment amounts haven't even been read yet. Gulp.

If you haven't gotten your hat totals yet, please PM me.

Still think the uni matching the pants is a good scheme? Turn on the Saints and watch the Seahawks in their blue dance class leotard outfits. Yuck.

Did anyone else catch the 2013 Final Five reference made with about 9:00 left in the 3rd? How CC came within a win of an NCAA auto-bid but lost to Wisconsin..."the number one seed taking care of business." Whoops.

Would you be happier if Hakstol bag-skated the guys until midnight unless they win by more than four goals?

It's hard to complain after a win...apparently it's not.
