I wish I could say I was happy about UMD winning, but their fans sitting behind me ruined the entire Final Five weekend for me and made the games not enjoyable to be at. Stalock was a rock, and they showed up to play so they deserved to win, but my opinion of them is forever tarnished due to those idots behind me. P.S. -- I did like the mohawks

I sure hope the boys don't have that attitude!

Lucky you. I got some LOVELY Dogz fans by me. Needless to say, words were exchanged a few times. I really liked the comment about how Watkins knew that guy was going to knee him so he dived and took the penalty.

While most of us, if not all of us, agree that this bill is the stupidest thing we've ever heard... i feel as though we should leave people's political views out of the discussion. Thanks.

I agree we need to see some improvement in our PP and PK. Our PK has struggled without LaPoint, so they need to step it up in that area. However, I feel pretty good about this team's chances in the national tournament, depending on regional matchups and such. I think we're one of the few teams in the country with the depth to take down BU and Notre Dame. That said, it's the playoffs and anything can happen... but I feel pretty good. But that's just me and I felt good about this team in the off season too. I'm excited to see what happens.

I agree the officiating has gotten a lot worse. And a lot of the penalties to go uncalled are really dangerous ones, or they are not called correctly, such as boarding/checking from behind calls. This is not helping protect the players from dangerous injuries that could occur. All you have to do is look at how much Bruess got away with the last month or so. By not calling the game tighter, it allows players to get the mentality that they can get away with certain things, and I don't like that.

I'll attribute some of bad PK's on the absence of LaPoint. It really limits options because one time I remember I think Finley got a penalty so they had Blood on the PK. Other people need to step up and get the job done in the absence of missing players. So basically, no more penalty killers can get injured. I thought the penalty kill wasn't that bad against Wisco, but the powerplay was terrible. This weekend I thought the PK wasn't so good and the powerplay was not great, but better than it was against Wisco.

They just previewed the Final Five on FSN during the Wild/Blues intermission. I got a good laugh when they called Kangas one of the best goalies in the country.

I don't care if the opponents outplay us, outshoot us, etc. As long as we win that's all that matters. What you said is key, good teams find a way to win -- which is what we have done time and time again this season. I don't care if we play the worst game of our lives as long as we win. And I definitely can't see Minnesota doing all that much at the Final Five based on how they've played lately. If they had to play any other team besides st cloud in the first round, I don't think they'd even be there. And Minny can say Kangas is back all they want. I'll believe it when I see it....NEXT YEAR. 3 games doesn't justify anything to me. We will see what happens this weekend.

Don't Blink - Kenny Chesney

Ryan Duncan IS Sioux Hockey. Anyone else who's ever had a conversation with him knows what I'm talking about. He's everything to the team, and I can't think of anyone more deserving of the success we've had this year, and it would only be fitting to see him go out on top, and I hope we keep rolling so he can.

I too am heading out to the Ralph. 6-0 Sioux. Ben Blood and Zach Jones are going to get hatties. PEACE OUT!

I don't go to class on Game Day. At least, not typically. I get too excited to sit there.

Um...not trying to be a b*tch, but Minnesota arrogance has no place in the WCHA. Anyone can win on any given night, which is the point. It's the playoffs, anything can happen. The hardest thing to do is end a team's season, and SCSU is desperate and they will give everything they have to keep playing. We'll see how it goes.

Baby steps I guess...

thanks for the laugh!

I agree. It didn't look like some of the other CFB calls that I've seen, but I definitely thought it was a good call and a penalty. If they wouldn't have called it I would have been pissed.

um...........GREGOIRE. the kid is due.

I was thinking that too. But I'd rather he got it than Schroeder, who didn't really impress me. I know he put up a lot of points, but considering how he was maybe overhyped a bit, I was expecting a little more. However, that Player of the Year ballot...if I was voting, I'd be writing in a name.

ooh! thanks for the lunch idea! i'm starving.

They can TRY to grow facial hair. I'm not sure they are all capable

I sense a pattern....

I decided that tomorrow...UND doesn't have to cancel classes. But... that doesn't mean I will be going. I got a parking ticket today for parking in metered parking without money in the meter because I didn't feel like dying on the walk from the ralph parking lot. How nice of them

Tech has beaten UND this year. I would hightly DOUBT the boys are taking them lightly.

Disagree. Was not that impressed with DU and frankly don't understand the love affair with them. Throw Bozak in there and I'll still have the same opinion. I was 100 times more impressed with CC when I saw them than I was with DU. I said last week DU wasn't going to beat CC and no one believed me. Well, look at that, I was right. So I negate any argument that says there's only 2 teams in the WCHA worth anything. Just my opinion.
