what is UND going to to do this weekend? after all they are playing a team coached by the greatest person ever to coach in college hockey, one who has never had a losing season, one who has never had a team fade down the stretch, one who would never lose to an inferior opponent and one who would never coach a team that gave up a two goal lead an lost. looks to me like a lost cause.

well this weekend is starting to look like a disaster, between injuries and not being able to win a faceoff.

so we are relegated to moral victories now? so evidently this isn't as deep of a team as some say, cuz if you lose a rookie you now hope for the best? und had troubles winning faceoffs tonight which is a focus issue. win more faceoffs and you might get a few more opportunities to have a scoring chance instead of racing around chasing the puck the majority of the time.

the nchc needs to stay as far away from asu as possible. admitting them into the conference would go against everything this conference was created for. like minded schools who put hockey near the top of their priorities. at asu hockey would rank up there with underwater basket weaving. after all we all know how well the coyotes have done in the desert.

a qb that can't protect the ball, is one of the problems along with a defense that couldn't stop und right now.

at some point you gotta think florida state will run into a team that won't wilt in the fourth quarter.

no kidding, when was the last time their football team had a big win, when big ben was there?

somewhere Scott Owens has to be sitting back with a big smile and thinking, How do you like me now? CC is an absolute joke right now.

tech as a number one seed in the tourney, now that would be something.

I was thinking the same thing watching last night.

so wisconsin now has another week off before playing another game. wonder if they can scrimmage any local high school teams this week.

why not? vogel spent 2-3 years here covering und athletics when he worked at wdaz, granted it was a almost 20 years ago.

guess I'll need to make some ridiculous offer over face value for non SRO and see if anyone bites.

2003 wcha playoff game three against denver. that was the game that really started to give the the sioux a home ice advantage at the new ralph.

toews didn't play that series because he was gone to go to world juniors. so that that only rests on oshie and duncan's shoulders

if bc or michigan was their opponent tonight as the number 5 team in the country this place would have been rockin. i'm sorry, I don't care if they ould have been ranked number one, it is providence college, hardly an annual powerhouse in the college hockey ranks.

they only went 2 for 5 on the powerplay, there is still work to be done

parks is still with markmac because of their freshman year as part of the rpm line with rowney that was so successful but has never materialized since then.

who would they be in recruiting battles with bowling green, lake superior state, tech?

I've never been on the fire Hak bandwagon and never will be. I just have a very high standard of play I expect to see. it's one thing to lose but it's also another thing to have a performance like they did on friday, it was the season opener for god sakes and they played like it was a july scrimmage and didn't want to be there. I actually believe the number two ranking was way too high for this team to start the season, 8-12 would have been more realistic and this weekend proved that- a pathetic performance fri and an underwhellming win on sat. doesn't mean that the number ranking won't be more realstic near the end of the season though.

it's an observation dumbass, so do you think UND looked like the number 2 or 3 team in the nation or for that matter even a top 20 team Friday night?

goes to show pollsters don't actually watch games as anyone who witnessed friday's game wouldn't have even had UND ranked.

ok so now we're we are trying so say BSU is the 96-97 Sioux? this love affair by our fan base with BSU has got to stop. UND needs to start treating these games like they are playing DU,Miami or anyone of our other rivals. that's part of the problem is it seems like UND doesn't want to beat up on them.

in person both games.

my guess is the gophers don't piss around and hang a couple of 5 spots on BSU. BSU isn't that good of a team.
