I feel like I'm in the minority that doesn't think Brien's logo is anything special. And I was in the camp that wanted to give him the logo design. I'm holding out hope for SME creating something somewhat unique but that's just the optimist in me.

My guess is no too, however it does make one think about the possibility. Guys have left for worse reasons (cough Tambo cough) so I just hope Matej is ready to stick it out and earn his spot. I have to admit though, I was really surprised he didn't get the start or at the very least play an entire period against the U18s.

I've come to the point where I'm 99% sure we don't see Tomek. I was lobbying for it towards the middle point of the year but at this point in the season I would rather have Hrynkiw get more time. Cam and Matt have proven themselves and need to be ready for the regionals. My only worry is does Matej consider alternative options in the offseason? I really hope not...

Then I'd have to set an alarm for 6:00AM to start drinking!

I actually thought Simo played well tonight. Nearly buried a chance to make it 5-1 too.

Vegas just find out that Stecher is out?

It looks like they teach a little writing over there at Hahvad. Seriously though, I couldn't imagine having the chance to graduate from Harvard with a degree and leaving early to the NHL. His decision seemed well thought out to me.

Exactly right Stone

I agree, rotate between The Ralph and The Xcel

While I like your concepts, I don't understand the reason behind doing them. Is it just for fun or are you working in conjunction with SME, Inc?

Well with THAT attitude...

Meh, if I'm Duluth I'm more upset that we didn't threaten to score on the 2 minute minor handed to them at the beginning of the OT. I'd also be upset that with a veteran team picked to win the conference, they are vastly underperforming.

No, again generalizations are great for making points... a vocal minority (mostly students) boos the nickname. And yes if you could have 12k at every sporting event for some students booing(temporarily, this isn't lasting forever) you'd take it.

Who said the second one?

I have a feeling that at 3 games under .500 Duluth won't be happy about anything this year.

Totally... nattys only, right? Where's gfhockey when ya need him?

So I haven't moved on? News to me... speaking in generalizations is great when it benefits you. Maybe some of the football only or basketball only fans good benefit from some of the passion of the hockey only crowd. I mean, if you could have 12k per game at football games but some of them booed the nickname, you'd absolutely take it.

everything

So I'm part of this "hockey only crowd" and these statements don't pertain to me. Am I a duck? There wasn't one person in either of the sections I sat in booing the new nickname... and I don't think heard any quacking either.

I don't think you have to wear the jersey to understand the culture that still exists within the Men's hockey program. I've heard many players and coaches still let a "play Sioux hockey" slip. Maybe some of the other sports could benefit from this attitude as the hockey team is the most successful on campus? I'm really sick of people singling out hockey players and "hockey only fans" too, as if those fans are somehow above it. Yes we are changing nicknames and it may take Men's hockey longer but IMO they embraced the Sioux name more than other sports so could be part of it.

He had a hard time finishing off the chances he created at UND. Kind of the anti-Boeser, who is a stone cold finisher.

I'm kind of over whether or not it's a PS or not. We won, not sure the reason we are wringing our hands over it.

I would bet big money on SCSU beating UMN in that matchup.

Pretty sure the correct answer is East

Purely from a health standpoint I'd prefer CC.
