admission fee? if they were to court ND I don't think ND would pay anything.

the mature issue ont his team just doesn't lie with the freshman. there is a certain defenseman who shall remain nameless that wears number 24 that needs to stop being so reckless soemtimes. don't get me wrong I really like how he is developing but there have been a few times this year where he loses his composure and starts taking dumb penalties-sat night for one and in denver where he took like 5 or 6 penalties on the weekend.

and what will protesting do? nothing. we can't go back and replay the games. officiating isn't what is costing us some of these games. yes the calls play into it but on saturday night did the offciating in the first 59 minutes and 56 secons prevent us from putting the puck in the net one or two more times? these calls suck but if we don't put ourselves in a position to where these calls can make difference we'll be a much better team. this team has to learn how to score more goals and when it does these calls won't make a difference. we score one more goal in duluth on sat night that call is moot point. we just need to hope this squad matures over the next few months and starts scoring more than 3 goals on a regular basis. wcha officiating is what is and I don't forsee changes coming anytime soon so bitching and moaning isn't going to solve any of these issues.

to take a trip down memory lane as the last time UND had this many freshman was 2005-2006 and these were the standing at x-mas that year: UW 24 pts DU 19 pts UM 19pts CC 19pts duluth 13 pts und 12 pts overal all record 12-7-1 wcha 6-6 scsu 9 pts msum 9ts uaa 7 pts tech 7 pts final standings um 43 pts du 37 pts uw 37 pts und 32 pts cc 32 pts scsu 28 pts msum 27 pts tech 18 pts duluth 15 pts anchorage 11 pts if you look at the first half of this year and that year there really isn't much difference of where the sioux stand and we did end up making the frozen four that year and winning the final five. so anything is possible. the sioux didn't make there run that season until february and march. I'm guessing with health issues that could occur again this season.

although dell damn near gave me a heart attack on friday night late in the third period ot ot when he came out near the blue line to play a puck.

nope and it doesn't help I'm an Irish fan either.

so were cincy fans all up in arms when kelly left central michigan before their bowl to become head coach at cincy? get over it, and be happy he got them to two bcs bowl games the last two years..

My xmas wish for the sioux is: get healthy become more mature and quit taking stupid penalties.

hak said after sat's game that cichy and knight will get a very good look on sat to see what they can do.

the loss of genoway at the moment is huge, but how much are we missing the likes of frattin right now. we are missing that veteran scorer. malones' game isn't scoring, trupp's is playmaking, zajac's is mr. work your ass off in the corners and vv' s is just a workhorse.

so no one is allowed to express thier opinions unless they are of a positive note? I don't claim to have a wealth of hockey x's and o's knowledge but what I can see is on a routine basis and some of the biggest games a sioux team that come sout flat. this weekend it cost us a potential point on friday. this has been an issue with teams under hak since the first day he got here. how in the hell can you come out flat in a huge series against one of your top rivals?

not unless some things change.

I can only imagine how bad will our pp look at the holiday tournament without genoway and kristo.

agreed one of these years it isn't going to happen and with the amount of freshman we have and injuries this might be the year that it doesn't happen.

and in his postgame hak said they are going to count onthese guys stepping it up, we are in deep trouble if that is the case. the only freshman worth a s#$% are kristo, macwilliam and gleason.

and that was four years ago.

4 points are only atainable if we continue to win on fridays and learn how not to give up a two goal lead on a saturday. that being said I'm still in a bad mood about last night. so I see a split.

boy we just lost two huge points and have a red hot wisconsin team coming in next weekend and anything more than a split there will be hard to come by.

you couldn't have said it better, score a goal or two in the third period and this crap is irrelevant.

I'd take a split, considering how our last road trip went I would take one in a heartbeat. that said we need to find a way to go 3-1 over the next two weekends heading into the break. so we don't fall to far back of the top teams in the league.

any tv or webcast this weekend?

what possible reason would they have to overlokk miami? my guess is that this is the game this weekend they had circled, not last nights.

I know but miami was actaully in postion to win this game and it took a miracle for bu to come back and beat them in ot.
