From what I understand, the US World Junior team's final roster won't be determined until after an exhibition game against the Czech Republic I think. Or else it won't be decided until right before that exhibition game. Either way, no final roster has been set.

PAY ATTENTION! The Sioux are #3 by DEFAULT. Those that could move ahead, have not been winning at all cost either. We had a good start to the season when no one else around us did. We struggled after losing Chay, which is why we sit in 6th. We stayed at #3 nationally by DEFAULT. Our out of conference record is 3-0-1. Does the Cornell lovefest miss you yet? Aren't you guys supposed to be knowledgeable about these things?

My gut has been working this weekend...I'll take Gregoire FTW tonight!

Thank you Pony for helping me move on in Sioux Survivor for the first time EVER!

Brad Malone (FTW)

Mac was a +1 Blood and LaPoint were -1 The rest were even. Was that what you meant?

wisco/tech is on fcs right now. my guide says the cc/du game is on at 9.

i watched the michigan/air force game from regionals last year on justintv... i might have also watched the bemidji/cornell game from regionals on there as well... it wasn't too bad.

I'm sick and tired of hearing about how good the bulldogs are! there time is done...it's over! this is your time! now go out there and TAKE IT! *sorry couldn't resisit throwing in some modified Miracle quotes!*

well guys... i'm feeling better about this game...

My hopes are just fine, thanks. Everyone likes their chances against us without Chay. This is nothing new. We'll see, we'll see....

Just a small clarification...at Tech we wore the black ones on SATURDAY. But I'm guessing you might have meant the last time we wore them during a weekend series and not that we wore them both games. I'm guessing if we wear them at all it would be a Saturday game. That tends to be how it goes.

They ALWAYS bring both the greens and the blacks. They did a "behind the scenes" episode of BMT last year where they talked about that kind of thing. I think one comment was made where one time they didn't bring the blacks and Hak wanted to wear them so they had to get them flown in or something like that. It is on a "gut" feeling...

In Duluth's game notes for this weekend, it said the games were available on Comcast cable in the Cities. If anyone knows anything about this as far as channels and such... please post. It could be misinformation for all I know, but it'd be great to be able to watch the game as live webcasts just don't work on my computer for some reason...

Not to be technical, but I'm pretty sure Mattson and Forbort weren't "signed" -- they were "committed" but they weren't signed by means of an NLI. Still aren't. And like it's been said before, you get a player like Olsen to come here and you make it work. Wow. I'm really being a smart ass today.

Malone's not leaving early. Straight from the horse's mouth. LaPoint wasn't THAT high of a draft pick. 4th rounder, right? He stays too. Kristo....I'll give you that one. But I think he'll be here at least another year. On the topic of Gregoire, I think he'll be here through at least his junior year. All these guys that are potential to leave early are not going to make the jump straight to the big club in the NHL. They are going to have to have some AHL seasoning. I'm not real sure a lot of them would be all that enthused to leave school early for that. Depends on the person I guess, but that's the vibe I get.

But Minnesota's soft on defense....

TRUPPER! one of these days he's gotta come through for me

I'm not surprised, yet this is still depressing. I'm still holding out hope for sooner rather than later.

OMG. I know! I almost responded to some of his posts but held back as I have not entirely calmed down from the events of the weekend. Miami really hasn't played all that well lately either, so it will be interesting to see how that goes. I haven't been that impressed with Miami in what little I've seen of them, but I welcome the challenge to what they bring. I also hope Chay's recovery is going well and will look forward to seeing him back on the ice whenever that happens to be. Am hoping to see him play this weekend, but I'm not holding my breath. His leadership is definitely missed.

That would be an accurate comparison. There's that kind of tourney and then they have tourney's like the GLI and Icebreaker.

There are different kinds of tournaments. I'd still call it one since it involves multiple teams. This is what they called a "Showcase" -- I heard Hak talking about this last year on the radio or something.

this is a f***ing joke!

I'm getting tired of this.......... it's getting OLD.

yeah...mine sucks. it keeps skipping out. not happy i bought it right now. i may just follow on the live chat i guess...
