I don’t know what the final score will be, but we’ll need to get up by four goals in order to hang on for the win. Two won’t do any good...

I can only imagine that the father of 21 in black and white can’t possibly feel anything but embarrassment for his son...

Yeah, I’d bet the same. When there’s a full house for Sioux games, sometimes it’s better to stay on the network, the WiFi is so jammed up.

Question kind of related to tonight’s tilt: I’ll be at the Ralph for the High School tourney. Anyone ever used iHeartRadio inside that building? Signal any good?

No guts whatsoever. D men look completely confused about their position tonight.

Heck with it! Simo drops a hat trick on us. The old man drops gas by $.40/gal to celebrate!

First year of the new Ralph was the last time that happened. And they both happened that year.

Somewhere in the 6-8 range. After last night, Leclerc will need a new chest protector for tonight...

I don't know how much it showed on T.V., but at the game, I've never seen so many pucks just up and fall off of sticks in open ice. The mishandling of pucks was crazy. Choking the stick to death. One other thing that I've noticed really since the start of the Hak era, is that its seems like every team we play, when they get possession in their own end, it's one pass, out of the zone, and off to the races. And for us, we are happy to just chip it off the glass and out. Drives me nuts.

Well, he would have had a shot if he hadn’t been trying to handle the puck in traffic behind the net.

Gotta go 6-2 at the least this last four weeks of NCHC play. Coach Shaw was on the radio with JT this morning. Sound like Gardner is ready to roll, but we may have lost one, maybe two guys for this weekend due to injuries sustained in practice this week. Sweep this weekend! 4-3 and 5-2. Don't care who scores at this point... Post script: four hours later - just got and email saying my West Regional tickets are available for pick up. So c’mon fellas! This would be a good weekend to get this train rolling. I could use a couple days of day drinking in Sioux Falls!

I have the kind of job that doesn't require me to wear church clothes to work, so I've got a Sioux/North Dakota hoodie or hat on all the time (I do not currently own any Hawks gear). And if I'm in MSP for a Twins game, Wild game, or concert, I make a point to only pack and wear Sioux/North Dakota gear. And, I have this hitch receiver cover on my pickup.

Funny. Doesn't take away from the fact that we could have swept Denver. And you know it.

Say what you want. It's right there in the replays and record books. Keep drinking the Kool-aid, The kid has had one good year. And that year he had an all world team in front of him.

First of all, I think we can all agree that this team is offensively challenged. Second of all, I put our lack of four more points squarely on the shoulders of Cam Johnson. We all saw Denver's regulation goal in the first period. Those shots can NEVER go in. secondly, if you recall Denver's first goal last night. It was about as lazy of an effort to make as save as there could have been. We could have swept. We absolutely could have swept Denver. It's time for the Thome era to begin.

Brilliant!! Absolutely brilliant! Some people get it, and they run with it. And it's farging brilliant!

Except that he's a defenseman. And as of late, a liability at his position.

No argument here! It's Thome's job as far as I'm concerned. If we had the bodies, I wouldn't mind seeing Wolanin watch a few games from the bleachers as well. Brutal doesn't even do his game justice since Christmas break.

You're about two years late with that one. But, so be it...

Took the day off to fish. Wound up being a pretty slow day out on Devils Lake. I need three points and the keg of of Deschutes IPA at the top of the south escalator to be fresh, to make it right. As you were...

Heck with it! We win by five tonight. 2 and 2 for 4 for Kawaguchi! Let's Go!

3 on 1 and didn’t get the puck to the net. Didn’t even come close.

No question! These of course are just my opinions based on what I see. I'm not even gonna pretend to be a siouxsports.com expert.

Yeah, its hard to understand what the coaches see compared to what we see. Back in October, we saw a line of Adams, Bowen, and Jones. They were lights out for 3-4 games! Haven't seen that line combo since. Last year, Pogo was lined up with JJ and Hoff for a 4 game stretch, and they were untouchable. Never saw that combo again the rest of the season. So, who knows...
