The Sioux will be going to Madison next year, they went last year but not during the 2005-2006 season. Another way to keep track of this...this year we only play them in Madison, not GF. So next year we will play home and home, then the following year only in GF, then the following year is home and home again.

USA wins 7-6 in ot, winning goal scored with 5 secs left. Blood with 1g, 1a. Canada wins 7-2. Hextall with 1g, 1a. Eidsness plays periods 1 & 2 and 6 min of 3rd, allows 1 goal.

It would not suprise me if Eidsness would come in at the semester break. They really need to get another goalie in here and one that will be playing a lot in the future, not just a practice goalie. Otherwise, you will need to bring in Eidsness and another freshman next season which means starting out with no college experience in the net and a very young defense (assumes Chorney and Finley leave). Not a good recipe for success early in the season. If Eidsness comes in at semester break, he will get a half year in without a lot of pressure and should be able to get a few starts. He will also be able to get his first NCAA championship. There is no question that the Sioux have to get another goalie this season, you can't get by with only two. An injury to JPL and the season would likely be lost, this is not a shot at Walski but he is a junior and hasn't really played. Just don't know that he would be the guy you would want to go with if JPL got hurt. If they bring in a "practice goalie" then that tells me the coaches have a lot of faith in Walski and he will probably be one of the two goalies to lead the team next year. If the coaches feel that Eidsness is ready and he is willing to come at semester break then, IMO, that would be the best solution. Then hit the recruiting trails to bring in another goalie for next year. Goaltending is the most important position on the team. Other than JPL we now have no one that has even started a game at this level.

I think Hakstol will play the people that earn the right regardless of scholarship. I have lttle respect for players that bail on their teammates during the season. There is no way I can wish him well in his future as it has to do with hockey. I wish him no ill will but I could care less if he succeeds with his hockey career.

This "settlement" would also remove any responsibility for a name change from the state board and place it on the Sioux tribes. As the clock ticks down on the 3 years and no approval is given, I can imagine a lot of ugly scenarios developing. Whatever problems may exist now or that are perceived to exist, will seem very small with what may happen in a few years.

We would be complete idiots to agree to this type of compromise. What does "support from the areas Sioux tribes" mean ? One tribe only or all tribes ? I would assume this means that the tribal gov would have to give approval and there is no way that will happen. That's not a compromise, if we had that support today we would already be on the exempt list. If this is the settlement then I would rather see this go to court as I believe we stand a good chance of winning. Why did we even bother to file the lawsuit if we are willing to accept this. Additonally, in most sports we won't qualify for post-season for sometime during our transition to d1. The only sport that this would affect is hockey and we won't be hosting tourny games anyway. So the only thing we get out of the 3 years is that the hockey team can keep the current jerseys. If this is really the "compromise" then we lost big time. Just makes no sense at all.

Is the pre-trial conference still scheduled for tomorrow ? Domuments should be unsealed tomorrow. Will be interesting to see what is in there.

Just got back to my hotel from the BC game. The rink is a joke, it was built without AC ! According to some BC fans this is the third straight year they have had to cancel a game. Pathetic for any DI school to have to play in a rink like this.

If Forney is set back due to injuries to the point where it will be tough to crack the lineup this year, then it might be best for him to play in the USHL for a year, then come back to UND. If he doesn't play this year that will be two years with little game action, can't be good for his development.

I'm not sure why anyone pays attention to Massey ratings. In the DII Massey, GVSU is currently #11. Sure. Massey tries to do the same with hockey across divisions. The final top 10 last year: 1. Manhattanville 2. Minnesota 3. Notre Dame 4. BC 5. Neumann 6. Oswego St. 7. UND 8. St. Norbert 9. Mich St 10. Elmira

What!! No #1 votes for Colgate this year. This poll is a joke!

BC finally has a date for ticket sales. Updated the info. Updated the NE link.

Chappell stats after 4 games: 72 carries for 705 yards! 9.8 yards/rush

I don't have a problem with that. If WW doesn't like then too bad, they shouldn't be taking timeouts. What did they want, UND to punt ?

Any chance of 700+ yards offense ?

It will depend on demand, how many tickets UND gets allocated, and where you rank in the Fighting Sioux Club. Those with the most points have higher priority in getting tickets. One of the big problems is you might not know until a week or two before the games if you can get tickets, by that time you probably can't get tickets online for games like Minn and Wisc. I updated this with info for Mich Tech. Their ticket office says they go on-sale 09/05 and you need to call 906-487-3200. Not sure if you can buy on the internet. I called the BC ticket office. Was told they haven't finalized their schedule yet, should be done in the next week or so. Tickets will probably go on-sale in two or three weeks. Check the link provided above.
