I sure hope something can get worked out, otherwise this may be the start of the downfall of their program.

in 1997 the Sioux were awarded the cup on a saturday night at the old ralph after they beat alaska to clinch a tie for the cup, I was there as part of the media and was on the ice with them.

I'm hoping it's Frattin that steps up and starts contributing, we need someone on that third line to. I think he has been a little disappointing this year. he started off like gangbusters and then pretty much after november he hasn't been heard from.

I would be surprised if we heard anything more on them, maybe the silver lining is that neither injury is as serious as first thought because Hak hasn't said either are season ending. If I recall correctly two years ago when Fabian hurt his knee it was stated that it was season ending. In 2005 when Brady Murray went down for the year at about this same point in the season I recall a line of Stafford-Zajac-Spirko carrying us to the title game, someone or some line will step up the only mystery at this point is who.

a power play that already sucks,this isn't good.

how can you do a medical redshirt if there is no injury?

any chance on saturday if the situation were to present itself and if needed Hak runs the score up?

swap clarkson and mich state for attendance purposes.

I think one area where both of these injuries,especially trupp, will affect big time is on the power play, trupp was the sparkplug on the second unit and the only one who has really produced on that unit, now who's going to step up on that unit, Martens, Miller, Kozek? I keep hearing Martens is playing so well and doing so many things, he is a junior now and it is time for him to step up and start scoring some goals. If this team is going to make the march to Denver we will have to have somebody on either the 3rd or fourth line start to add some scoring. we can't win a championship scorinf 2 goals a game.

thanks

time left?

most likely tech or duluth

I wouldn't rule out the possibility of us seeing duluth again in 2 weeks.

why isn't cal-poly scheduled?

seeding-will it even be relevant this year? with the projections that jason moy keeps coming with, it doesn't look like seeding is a very important issue because it looks like attendance is the big issue along with protecting michigan's feelings. In last week's bracketology he had michigan going to madison and facing the badgers but then switched it because the wolverines would be getting screwed by having to play the hosting team in the first round(maybe mich should ask cc and denver from afew years back how thery felt having to go to yost). It also looks like there will be a lot of switching going due to the avoidance of interconference matchups in the first round. this rule of 5 is still stupid because you can still avoid interocnference matchups. for instance say the wcha has 5 temas in the tournament cc,und,denver, scsu and wisc. and the seeds are 1,1,2,3,4 you cannot tell me that an interconference matchup can't be avoided. it'll be interesting to see what kind of crap-sorry pairings the committee comes with this year.

that would do it, but the way BC laid an egg this last weekend I wouldn't count on seeing that happen.

I see a couple of 2-1 or 1-0 games. it seems that when we play these defensive oriented teams we can nevery really have a breakout game. so both games really close.

I have the same feeling I did in 2000 when it came to Wisconsin, let CC have the cup-we'll take the broadmoar(sp) and the NCAA title. It actaully maybe works to our benefit if CC wins the cup as they will proably be a 1 seed and if we're a 1 seed we won't get shipped out there. I still say we end up as the last one seed placed in Albany with Miami and hopefully BC.

ever been to hohokam to see the cubs?

and I hope get the opportunity down the road to punish BC for not helping us out this weekend against NH-boy did the eagles lay an egg.

The system is goofy in which they would become a TUC but our wins wouldn't count int he TUC column.

my wife ad I will be there no matter who makes. all airline,hotel and rentals booked.

plus 2-4 of the bubble teams could very well end up playing each other in the first round.

DU did beat us 4 in row in 2005.

I saw a thread earlier thi season that UND was going to be participating in the Ice Breaker out in Boston with BU, Mich State, and one of the Umass schools. plus UND will be in the Great Lakes Invitaional. that means we need some home NC games(BSU and Cornell?)
