7>4

Chorney's chest pop was done in retaliation to Irman's and on his home ice. As such, it makes it acceptable and, in fact, honorable. Irman, on the other hand, remains a classless punk. Can you tell I work in the legal department for the NCAA. Tell me how you want something interpreted and I'll find a way to do it.

"Supposed dirty hit by Irman". I love it. Yeah, I guess it was borderline. You gimme me a break. I do enjoy being a fan of UND and part of that is taking great pride in finding all things wrong with the piss and yellow.

That's the whole point. It is very unlikely it would be. Name one player on the Sioux rooster who would pull the same crap? Go to an earlier thread and watch the reply of Spiko's goal when he undressed Harrington and Briggs and his reaction afterward. Overall team character is one big reason I'm such a big Sioux fan.

The whole "let me show off my pretty brown jersey" stuff didn't bother me as much as the blatent cheap hit he put on Prpich to draw the penalty. The guy charges in and hits an opposing player in the back. Chickens!!!, classless move. Should have at least drawn another two for unsportsmanlike.

I totally disagree with the Prpich comment. I thought he and his line played very well. He was the reason the Sioux got the 5 on 3 in the second period and they did a great job of cycling the puck and keeping pressure on. Also, he did a good job of keeping his cool. Irman was a total punk. What do you expect from a kid from Fargo who picks the brown and piss over the Green and White. Was a fun game to watch. CSTV did a nice job.

For tonight I'd say Irman. That idiot is throwing elbows left and right. He keeps it up, Smaby gonna make him eat that "M" he is so proud of.

Sports Illustrated this week had a little blurg on WJC with picture of Kessel. The sound bite said that the WJC will feature Kessel from U of M and Toews of ND.

2-0 now CC over DU.

1-0 CC over DU in the 2nd.

Burish is a hack. He put a cheap shot on a CC player during their series that was every bit as chickenshit and gutless as the hit Punkabitch put on Bina. Claims he was protecting Roberta Earl when he blindsided the guy with 3 seconds left. The CC player was lost for the season with knee injury and Burish gets nothing. If past history holds true, the Badgers won't be in Milwaukee come April.

Gophers looked pretty damn good tonight against Michigan. Their power play was unbelievable.

The NCAA took Division III Carthage College off the list of schools with banned American Indian nicknames after the school changed its name from Redmen to Red Men. This proves the point that we are not dealing with brain surgeons at the NCAA. No way do they win a legal fight over this issue because they have simply been all over the fricken board with their rulings and logic.

I'm listening to the web and its still 1-0. Tell me the second goal really happened. FINALLY. CONFIRMATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't be fooled, Gwozdickhead knows exactly the type of player Paukovich is and he encourages it. The quote "that's the kind of team ND is" really pisses me off. The Sioux were definately tough last year, not cheap. There is a big difference. The classy thing to say would have been to show remorse and say you are focused on getting back to playing hockey. Not disparage the other team and tell them that your coaches have given you the OK to fight back if you are jumped. Poor Paukovich, he really comes off looking like the victim. Breaks a guys neck and now people talk mean to him and the guy's neck he broke won't even call him back to talk about the nice card he sent. 4 points for the Sioux this weekend restores my faith in the hockey gods.

According to USCHO.com, Hirsch is taking a medical hardship and will sit out this year. http://www.uscho.com/news/id,10904/Minneso...nalReasons.html Here's wishing that Tyler takes care of his personal issues and we see him back on the ice in 06-07. It's always better to beat the Gophers when they have their A team. Best of luck Tyler.

27-10???

CC - Ohio State series this weekend should be an early indication as to how good Ohio State is. CC's top line of Sterling-Sertich-Patrasso will be one of the best in the nation this year.

Hey GK, one of "your" questions should read "So if you're Sioux" not "So if your Sioux". Come on, you're making us UND grads look bad.

Solid game by JPar. Looks like he will need to be sharp this year until D get some experience. Off to watch CC-Maine on TV. Should be a good one. CC crushed Union last night and Maine beat Air Force. Have to say I'm going to cheer for Maine. Meet some great people from Maine at the Frozen Four and they have always been good Sioux supporters.

Does this mean that he is out for tomorrow's game.

Is Ziggy going to see any PT this year?

Yeah, ZPar would have been a senior. Anyone hear how Murray is doing in Switzerland. A couple of guys I miss are Massen and Canady. Watching them play with Fabian in last years Frozen Four was a blast. They were awesome in the semi-final game. Hope Fabian can develop the same chemistry with a couple of grinders this year.

Assists went to Porter and Oshie. Wonder if they have different power play units. Good start for the Sioux.
