7>4

UND, Michigan, and UM in on region. Three programs with great history and pride and 21 NC's among them. Should make for some great games.

BSU is a way tougher #4 draw than Holy Cross, maybe UM knew what they were doing when they laid down yesterday. They will give WI a run for their money. Can't believe they put CC in WI bracket. Talk here in CS was that CC would be going out East. I guess the only way to make sure that only 2 WCHA teams arrive in Milwaukee.

Penalties are the key. Both Michigan and Minnesota have excellent power plays. The Sioux need to stay out of the box. I hope we get some refs that will let them play. Can't wait until next weekend. GO SIOUX!!!!!!!!!

Southgate. Hands down. Also, they got great food there now.

There are no easy roads to the FF. No tougher than beating BU and BC in Beantown last year. The key is that we get the Ralph rockin' next weekend. Should be a blast.

Mich St. up 2-1 over Miami in the 3rd and Havard over Cornell 3-0 in the 2nd.

Wisconsin just moved to #1 in Pairwise when bonus added.

I agree. The Gophers are just scary offensively. Briggs is capable of playing well. It will take an off game by Briggs and a hot goalie on the other end to beat UM. They are still the favorite going into the tournament IMO regardless of what happens this afternoon.

Looks like that game insured that Gophers will be at The Ralph next weekend.

Not sure if this was posted on another thread but see where St. Louis signed David Backes. Big loss for UM-Mankato. Wondering how this will affect Oshie's decision at the end of the year? Here is the link: www.uscho.com/news/id,12354/MinnesotaStatesBackesSignsWithStLouis.html

Earl's got talent but I can't stand him either. Look at the difference between Oshie and Robbie. Oshie gets pounded all game long and just keeps coming and coming and coming. I'd love to Smaby v. Earl. You wouldn't want to turn your head because it would be over real quick.

I want number two star behind Kaip. It was agony but WOW, what a win!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the updates everyone and enjoy St. Patty's. The green beer will taste sweet tonight. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Come on. Empty netter for Rylan and let's ice this thing.

How much time left? This is killing me.

WOW. Just got out of a meeting with a LONG winded client. It was KILLING me. I felt like the Budweiser stunt guy. Somebody, beer me. Sounds like a great second period by the Sioux. Rylan, AWESOME. I predict the hatty in the third. Radio silence will be continued. Don't move that jersey. Don't switch drinking hands. All karma on board. Bring home the W boys.

I'll take one for the team. Is the first period over yet?

YEAHHHHHH!!!! Way to go Kaip, no better time for the 1st. Radio on - 2-0 WISC. Radio off - 2-2. Looks like I will be relying on your updates the rest of the way. GO SIOUX.

Welcome aboard Amigo. Now let's beat those dirty Badgers.

Either that or I just really hate Badgers.

It's still early. Had to shut down the radio as I was getting some complaints from others in the office. Something about foul language. I'm going silent so keep the updates coming.

Great, keep us posted.

What was the final? Great season for the Sioux.

2-1 St. Cloud as Zaba can't control rebound. 13:10 left.

1-1 CC-SCSU. Keep it up Dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!

SCSU still up 1-0 after 2. However, terrible call by Anderson at the horn means CC will start the third with 5-3PP. GO DOGS!!!!!!
