Oh, I wasn't referring to on this board ... just some things I saw other places outside of here predicting the UMD sweep. I think a split is realistic ... a sweep not so much. Though... I'm obviously hoping for one for the good guys!

So... am I the only Sioux fan not feeling negative about our chances this weekend? Missing players and all, I like our chances. I feel like I'm alone with all the UMD sweep predictions going around out there... Let's do this boys!

The MN Hockey Hub lists us as one of the teams showing interest in Minnetonka's Thomas Schutt. http://www.mnhockeyhub.com/page/show/225443-2010-11-top-uncommitted-division-i-prospects# He's a senior. Good defensive forward . Shut down Kyle Rau in the section championship last year - I've seen him play once or twice. That's what I know.

this weekend would be a great time to see all that depth i've heard so much about....

it is the rumor that's been going around. I hope it's not going around... though with Mac out with illness now ... i don't know. And then I read one of the Gopher d-men is out with mono in addition to Bjugstad so I'm starting to wonder...

I've read that in more than one place... makes me sick to my stomach.

An article on TSN says the incident is "still under review" by the WCHA. Going on past history, I'd say he gets a game. Just my opinion. Especially if they are still reviewing it... and you know... they do give game suspensions for "trying to fight" these days...

Do you even know what was said? I know he said something to Maiani and I don't think he was trying to chirp at them or anything.... he was obviously concerned at the time about Jesse if you saw his face.

Matty Frattin

I'm sorry for living in my bubble of positivity. I don't really feel like being a negative nancy like 90% of the people around here.

FINALLY! someone else said it! Agreed. Duluth has played Lake Superior, Providence, UAA, and Bemidji.

I guess my glass is half full as opposed to half empty. Duluth goes home with a reality check...

I just knocked on wood.

I'm nervously excited! I'm attempting to watch the hawks/wild game and the sioux webcast on my computer at the same time. This can't possibly end well. My buddy just texted me to inform/rub it in that he is going to the hawks/wild game ... but at least i can watch both now haha. Oh, I'm also hoping the mono rumor about forbs is just that.

I think it's seen differently from person to person. I know a lot of people thought it was clean and a lot of people that thought it wasn't. I, initially thought it was a borderline head shot. But... I've only seen it once and without having seen it again I can't really evaluate it either way to determine if I was wrong or not. Either way I think it was borderline and my first impression was actually that it was a pretty dumb time to take a penalty with so little time left in the period.

I heard a rumor about mono....but that's all it was... a rumor, so I don't know.

darn it i moved to minny. random comment: when i lived in gf i lived off gateway by the clarion inn and once came across the michigan tech hockey team walking back from mcdonalds before the game. oh fun times.

My theory is that is if it's a home game... it's on TV. FCS included. We have an FCS contract. They HAVE to put our games on. So it's safe to assume a home game is on TV... it doesn't always show up on FCS right away, but no worries. They haven't let me down yet.

Verbal, yes.

I think I've actually heard Eids say he will start on his MBA next year.

Gothberg will come when Eids leaves. Info on prospective goalie recruits would be in the "Prospective" recruits thread. And there is a USNDTP goalie mentioned that we are showing interest in.

I'd bet good money Blood will play through his senior year.

These NTDP kids seem to like us lately That's what, 4 in the last how many months from the program? Nice.

not to be nitpicky... Camper's stat line is actually 7 g- 10a - 17 pts. Yeah, he's tearing it up no doubt about that.

So, it'd be nice to get more offensive contributions from someone besides Frattin. A couple more guys need to kick it into high gear. It'd also be nice to not spend a majority of games on the penalty kill. Which considering we play DU this next weekend... doesn't seem to be ending soon. I'm glad it's early in the season and we can work on improving these issues. I am trying to keep my spirits up.
