Gregoire.

Sioux win 7-6 in a wild 5 goal third period come from behind win.

does anyone know what this "tire drill" is I've heard mentioned several times in the show. is it just skating around tires?

this is a tradition they've had for a while at the end of ractice the day before a game. I saw them do that at the Frozen Four last year.

It's confusing but what he meant by H2H was the individual comparison between the two teams and UMD wins that right now.

the biggest thing right now is to not panic. the biggest reason that UND hasn't moved much in the past few weeks is that their RPI isn't that high right now. as long as they keep winning that will rise and when that does they will move up. keep in mind that the pairwise are just a snapshot of whatt he season looks like at any particular moment. they are fun to track during the season but don't mean much until March 21st at about 10 p.m. when the final 5 championship game concludes and all the games have been played.

correction. in the pairwise rpi is the first tiebreaker. and duluth has the higher rpi and they win the comparison between the two teams. so therefore umd is number 14 and we are number 15.

god I hate it when I'm right sometimes. the WCHA has said they are in full agreement with the 1 game suspension.

if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. on a personal note I have absolutely loved the atmosphere at the ralph the past few weekends. it has truly felt like a home ice advantage. now if only we can get all the teams to feel this way.

they will and once again they will say how they are extremely pleased with how du has handled this situation with such severity(sp). then this will be a closed book issue. My question is will the ncaa step in and say something.

I'd be willing to bet that uah would be part of some type of expansion and conference swapping deal that involves bsu.

he claims he didn't fully understand the rule of being ejected. whatever, and I've got some beachfront property in phoenix I can sell you as well.

according to the herald du just suspended gwoz for 1 game for communicating with the team via headset after he was ejected. wouldn't the ncaa want to look into this?

it is at the john this year. next year the regional is at the x.

I'm getting a little ahead of myself. but theoretically with the ncaa possible going to more of a regionalized tournament. it wouldn't be out of the question for und,du and minn to all be placed at mariucci. with us as a 4 seed and du and minn as 2 and 3 seeds. that would be a fun regional.

I wouldn't be surprised if michigan swept them this weekend like michigan did to miami last year after miami had a great streak going. in this 20 game unbeaten streak who have they beaten? the only good teams they've played in that stretch our bc once and duluth once.

contact azsioux he has a bunch of these kinds of things on dvd.

that's been my point. just keep winning and good things will happen.

flippable comparisons that could go in our direction: bc-we pass them in rpi we win this comparison du-outside shot at rpi or if we face them again at the final five and beat them we win this comparison miami-rpi and TUC could both go our way duluth-pass them in rpi and we win this one nh-pass them in rpi and we win this one ohio state-could pass them in rpi and when they play 10 games gainst TUC we will win this comparison princeton-outside shot at rpi this just goes to show how fluid the pwr are right now and will be up until the title game at the x is played in mid-march. as long as we keep taking care of our business things will go our way. no need to panic just because we didn't move at all in the pwr this weekend. I was told at one time that the pwr were not meant to be looked at until the season was over as they are just a snapshot of what is occuring in the season at any particular moment.

technically it would have been 3 in a row as the fourth was gwaz's penalty.

bottom line is Jim is correct. there are a lot of comparisons that can be flipped. the biggest thing that will flip those is our rpi. as long as we keep on winning our rpi will go up and therefore comparisons will be flipped. we also still have at least 6 games left with TUC teams and if we go 5-1 or 4-2 that will help us as well. there is no need to panic yet as there is a lot of season left. we have put ourselves into a position where we can make the tourney if we take care of our business. in the last three weeks I think we've moves up 13-15 spots. just keep winning and that stuff will take care of itself. I said this two months ago, I think when it is all said and we will be in the top 10 in the PWR.

I would bet my house on the fact that there will be no retroactive forfeit of this. the NCAA doesn't have the balls to that. plus it would benefit UND which the NCAA isn't a very big fan of right now.

I'm glad the huskies had a good weekend in the springs as the sioux should be more focused int heir preparation this week for them.

I'm not all that surprised we didn't come out with the "jump" we've seen the last three home games last night. I was actually surprised we did it against the gophers both nights. these kids are human and it is not humanly possible to come out with extreme high emotions every single night. DU did out play us last night and out work us. but bottom line is we got a point and are in second place all by ourselves 1 point out of first. a very good weekend overall.

if jonesy goes ragin. he will be playing friday night.
