siouxweet

sorry if this has been mentioned in a previous thread but WDAZ reported tonight that Hak said at the luncheon today that Big Joe might not be back before x-mas

not completely awesome as the Sioux should have swept as they blew a third period lead on Friday and ended up taking only 3 points that weekend.

unless you get the arena to hand out green/white t-shirts this will be a flop again.

off topic, but has the coach's show changed or been cancelled as I tuned in last wed and there was nothing?

I still miss Sparky.

the Sioux will be solidly in the top 10 by Feb 1.

I think our d will figure itself out here with health and experience. goaltending is improving and will be much helped with the d improving in front of him.

pairwise is the only one that means a thing.

any split out in the Springs is a good thing. In January of 1997 we had a freshman goalie in the nets and won the first game out there 3-0 and then got blasted in the second game 8-3, and that season turned out pretty well. I thought we moved the puck well all weekend. If and that's a big if we can get healthy fairly quick we might be in postion to be 4-6 games over .500 at x-mas. Putting 7 goals on arguably one of the best netminders inthe country should give us some confidence moving forward. BE is getting better each time I see him, keep in mind we scored two of CC's goals on Sat(one off our skate and the second was VV's fluke).

Hey, AZ do you know if Ben Blood actually has green blood, especially after this weekend?

I don't know if I would start to go down the splitsville road like last year just yet. I think if they would have had a healthy d corps last nights result might have been different. people can point to the hextall major all they want but in the second period we had like 4+ consecutive minutes of pp, 3 minutes of which was 5 on 3 and we could only score once. that being said I really like what I saw this weekend and hopefully we'll have six d men healthy enough to play this weekend.

I can be one of the most negative peopleon this board at times, but I am pleased with what happemned this weekend considering all factors. I like the direction this team is going and a sweep will happen soon, very soon. if we get our d healthy and hopefully Joe will be back it may happen this weekend.

if genoway,jones and finley can't go tonight who plays on the blue line or do we just rotate 4 D? if all three can't go it wouldn't bode well for a favorable outcome tonight. is Fienhage hurt? why would you bring Finley if you don't want to play him over Fienhage?

malone hurt or just not putting out the effort?

I don't know anything, just giving my 2 cents

right and finley could have done the same, I guess we'll see tonight.

that kid from denver(rugsseger sp) did it last year when the pios came up to play the sioux.

he may have made the trip, but I'd be surprised if we saw him in any other role than as an emergency fill in on sat.

Bachman out for the weekend along with CC's top line?

with our pp struggling and cc's pk on fire along witht he fact we've had other issues scoring and bachman not allowing much over 1 goal a game-CC 4-1,5-2.

you still have your obama/biden sign up?

sorry. this is the same outfit that screwed us on the mankato webcasts isn't it?

anyone know if there will be a webcast or on tv?

BE should be in net both nights as I don't blame him for the loss on saturday as he wasn't given much help. that being said Hak said this numerous times over the past few years a teams best penalty killer is it's goaltender and BE still needs to develop into that. I'm much more concerned about the defensive lapses we had on Sat and Friday for that matter. Any chance that when Finley comes back to move Genoway to forward where he would be a much betetr help to this team instead of being a pylon that skaters just go around.
