The Southgate has always been a nice spot to catch the Final Five... in fact it's Friday afternoon tradition with some of my co-workers.

Let it go already.

Oh my GOD! Please be careful...

Ummm... has N.J. Petry ever been to a hockey game before? WTF?

But you have purchased your regional tickets, right?

Anyone else see any significance in these teams?

I think he'll be fine with a couple weeks rest... after all, he did skate a shift in the second period Friday night. Funny though, Hak says no comment. Drew says no comment. But we're such rubes for information that we post anything we hear to the message board. The team likely has good reason to keep details of the injury close to the vest...

Personally... I enjoyed the b**ch slapping that Radke put on the guy from Mankato a few weeks back. He's got my vote to fill the role.

Not to hijack... but is GPL permanently down, or is it standard site issues? I was trying to find out information on the Mankato suspensions and haven't been able to get on the site today...

With the family thing (grandkid?) and a son potentially in the NFL next year, (along with many fans who've lost all trust in him) I see him pulling the plug in a timely manner. After all, he's now the all-time winningest coach... seems to me like all capable missions are accomplished. In his weekly on-air interviews with Tim & Swyg, it's fairly obvious that he's seen the writing on the wall. For his reputation's sake, I hope he's read it carefully.

Wow... I didn't have any idea. (as if I'd turn them in anyway ) Thanks for the info!

Conversely, a 3 game series might have taken away some of the banners we currently have. I've thought about it a lot, but ultimately think 1 game is the way to go. Yeah... sometimes you get robbed, but hey... it's the playoffs.

That's strange that those seats weren't part of someone's season ticket package, considering where they are... very surprising. In any event, nice grab on some good tickets! And you'll definitely get "a whiff" being in row C.

I thought I heard Hennessey say this morning that Elliot is out.

Funny how both times they're mentioned, they're in disagreement with the other team as far as the overall record. Figures.

Gee, I don't kNOw...

favorite goal scorer: Jason Blake... truly showed us that speed can kill. Man he was fast. favorite tough guy: Mike Commodore... favorite I've seen, but I'm sure I would've loved Archie. favorite set up guy: Zach Parise... saw the ice incredibly well. favorite goalie: Karl Goehring favorite fight: The intentional glove dropping of Prpich & Peluso. favorite sioux game ever attended: The huge 3rd period comeback against Minnesota. favorite hockey but not hockey moment: The first game after Ralph dies, the mic goes bad for the national anthem and the crowd sang it. Very emotional, you probably had to be there. A very close 2nd: Greene skating to the locker room after a penalty (Blais' rule that night) and then having to come back to sit in the box. After he served his time, straight back to the showers. favorite play: Absolutely impossible to pick one. favorite current player: Toews favorite team: 87... the first Sioux team I ever got to see in person. Awesome.

Siouxrock.

Uhhhh... no comment.

I've actually banged my head against the wall so much this season that I no longer hear the music... just a constant ringing. It's no longer is an issue for me; they could play Boxcar Willie for all I care.

They're just buying into Don Lucia's "natural rivalry" propoganda. I haven't yet.

So much for being a die-hard Sioux hockey fan. Good Lord.

Sioux team that showed up at the John last Friday: MSU 4 MSU 5 UND 2 UND 2 Sioux team that showed up at the John last Saturday: UND 4 UND 5 MSU 2 MSU 0

This would be a considerable loss to UND. At least there's some consolation in the fact that he was "head-hunted" and not out looking for a new job. Aside... this really puts into perspective the heights BSU has their eye on, and it looks like they're going about it correctly.
