This kid is huge for an 8th grader, watched him against Thief River last night and he looked to be an alright skater and had a great shot. Looks like the kid has a future in front of him since he is only an 8th grader.

Ausmus was injured around early January and missed the rest of the regular season, but he did play in EGF's 2 playoff games.

UND in 2- Too much speed and skill for Tech. Denver in 3- Mankato will make it tough on Denver, but just not enough to win the series. BSU in 3- Was at Saturdays BSU-Gophs and Bakala can steal BSU a few games, If Matt Read doesn't play UNO in 3. SCSU in 3- Mike Lee will play great for SCSU and Roe will lead the offense to get by UMD. MINN in 2- Gophers look to be playin their best hockey of the year the past few weeks. Not sure if their two players that got injured will play, walked by them at the game last night and Mattson was limping pretty good and heard Ness may have broke a few ribs. CC in 3- Like CC at being at home and like their goaltending a little more than Wisco.

Sioux need to continue to stay disciplined and keep cutting down on the turnovers to continue to win games like this . Overall pretty good win for the Sioux, even when they weren't at the top of their game. Big chance for a sweep tonight and maybe gain some more ground on those ahead of us in the standings. SIOUX 2 St.Cloud 0 Trupp, Kristo

Like the idea of using another one of our D at forward and I think Marto could play pretty well at forward. Hope some guys step up and put the puck in the net, but even bigger tonight to play solid D and not give St. Cloud chances with turnovers. SIOUX 4-1 Kristo, Frattin, Marto, Rodwell

Good start for the Sioux. The forecheck is causing Notre Dame's D some problems and giving us some great chances. Dell didn't have too many chances, but made some very nice saves when tested.

Friday- Gregoire Saturday- Frattin

Still don't think the Sioux are out of it if we can play at even strength for a while and that might help to get things rolling.

Neither am I these refs are horrible. There is no way that Mac should have been tossed for that, yeah it was head contact but the guy went down right as the hit was coming.

Just about time to get another season started. I'm very excited to see how the lines look today as there looks to be some great scoring threats on every line, I'm really looking forward to see what the Sioux send out when they get that first powerplay I think we should have a couple very explosive powerplay units.

Both Apple Valley kids are great players and have very good size. Michaelson was the #1 rated sophomore player in the state and Fasching was the #2 ranked freshman in the state. Both would be great pick-ups, if I were to guess I would say Minnesota is probably pretty high on both their lists as well. I know Apple Valley played at tournament in Stadstad Tourny in Grand Forks last year and I believe they will again next year so it could be a good chance to see these two great players live.

No matter who comes in there is gonna be a lot to figure out, but I think the competition will really help. I think we may see a little more of Dell next year and really do believe Chay will be back. I'm gonna say we wait a year on a Nelson and Simpson. Forwards- Frats, Trupp, Gregoire, Kristo, Malone, Hexy, Knight, Lammy, Toews, Rowney, Cichy, Bruno, D.Mattson, Rodwell, and Davidson (15) D-Men-Genoway, Marto, Blood, Mac, Forbort, N. Mattson, Gleason, Finehage?, Hill? (9) I think if Genoway is backe he will be at D, but think about a line of Genoway-Frattin-Kristo, teams would have a tough time keeping up with that line. I am really excited to see how some of these things start falling and can't wait for October. GO SIOUX!!!!!!!!!!

I saw Omdahl was hurt in the 2nd and that really hurt Roseau, but I think Edina had too much speed for them. I don't know if Knochenmus or Omdahl have the size to play right away, I think both will have to play juniors to prove their selves a little more, but I think they will catch on somewhere. Anyone know anything about A.J. Michaelson (soph) and Hudson Fasching (fresh) from Apple Valley both have good size and have looked pretty good against Blaine.

LET'S GO SIOUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SIOUX 5 Tigers 2 My prediction is Marto will have a very good weekend on the big ice sheet using his speed as an advantage on the big ice.

Friday- Vandy

I'm still on the bandwagon. It's not as if we are just hanging in there in most games, but most games we have been the better team for most of the game. The thing we need to do now is finish on our chances and play a complete game.
