when was the last time you saw them down 6-0? desparate times call for desparate means or mesures. a tactician that cannot change course when confronted with unsurmountable odss faces certain doom.

changing the goalie is something Hak has never done, and it was a mistake in this case not to try it.

I disagree - the whole team needed a shakeup/wakeup call.

Yes - even bigger, the team played with no heart in this game, that is what hurts the most.

why, why can't Hak ever, ever, ever pull out a goalie who is obviously struggling? Pulling a goalie who is having a bad night sends a message to the whole team - WAKE UP Leaving him in sends another message - SUCK IT UP. that is all I have to say on this topic. PS - I have been a Sioux fan, and alumni, from GF, since 1976, this is the biggest [edit] embarassment I have yet to see in the Sioux Legacy. my $.02

have a safe drive down - I recommend going south to Sioux Falls, 1-90 West to Murdo, 83 South to North Platte, I've driven this route since 1995 and found it to be the most pleasant with the least amount of traffic and nicest scenery (no black hills, but that slows you down anyway). Gas up in Watertown or Brookings, Murdo, North Platte (don't get gas near the interstate exits if you can help it, I've saved over $.25 gallon by going to the middle of town in NP). You should make Denver in ~12 hours @ 80-85 MPH, plenty of places to stop along the way, watch for cops in Nebraska on 83 as you get close to North Platte, SoDak is not so bad for cops. Go Sioux! we'll be watching on the big screen. I would love to go, since it's only two hours away from home, but there is just no way possible for me to make it happen this time, next year though...

I've got a 1994 program here, shows Kevin Powell as #1, Toby K was 35, Lembke 31, Todd Jones, #29. Some other names in there that brought back memories, Darren Bear, Akil Adams, Scotty Kirton, Kevin Hoogsteen, Mark Pivetz... I was looking for my Aaron Schweitzer pic can't remember his number, but did get to watch him play in the Minors with the Colorado Springs GOld Kings before it folded...fighting league... PS - 1994 uniforms - Blackhawk logo, and I wish I would have bought a dozen of the damn things.

A signed Hrkac jersey, with the old logo, would probably be the coolest thing I could think of to display in a UND hockey shrine - lucky you.

still deeply disgusted by this situation and the a$$hats on USCHO that think this is not serious. Get well Robbie, you're the heart of the team and one of the hardest workin' mo-fo's out there.

not off topic at all, it makes sense that if you're going to invest this much cash into satellite why not make the most of it, one reason I'm looking at a larger dish with a motor so I can actually get more channels and use out of the system. As long as REA keeps broadcasting the games FTA I'll do what I can to pick them up, though it's a shame about the sioux shop charging so damn much for a $160 system that really didn't take bandwidth sharing limitations into consideration.

Denny Gunderson?

anyone have an opinion on this item as far as improving reception? 48" dish?

What the hell are you smoking? The regular season is almost over, have you not watched any recent games? If the Sioux can somehow pull a split out of their collective asses this weekend, it will be a friggin miracle. PS - See you at the airport - Go Sioux!!

is USA Vs RUS on tonight?

Pat's Weeney is a great announcer, I don't know what you all are complaining about.

try Doubletree World Arena There's a Carraba's close by too, and they have 1/2 price happy hour before the game(s) begin. A few of us Sioux faithful are getting together before the games, see you there and hope you can make it. If you need any more info, (or a ride from the COS airport) lemme know, been here in jeezusville for 10 years now. You may be able to pick up tix outside of the arena prior to the game, though the facility frowns upon scalping, most people "give away" the tickets. ahem. This will be the _one_ series we go to here in Springs. We are despised in the world arena, as we wear our beautiful green and white jerseys to all games and when we do go we cheer hard against CC, unless they are playing MN, then we hope for a split. Needless to say, we are marked and hated, and will be wearing our disguises (green wigs and goalie masks).

pssst..find out how big their dish is and let us know...

Thanks for the info Pete! I just switched over my Direcway service to a local wireless provider, so I'm going up on the roof to take it down today, I'll see what's involved with switching the LNB out, if it's too much hassle I'll be in touch for the larger dish.

Pete, can recommend a setup that should improve signal stregth, good LNB, best dish size to start with, based on what you've seen so far this year?

no, only about a foot so far, been cold as hell though, that's what the hot tub is for, to keep us warm.

glad it's not just me, I was going to go up and juggle my dish a bit. Pete, I have a 1 meter dish, would I get better reception if I moved my LNB to my old DirecPc dish? it's one of those oval/oblong monsters.

got it!
