The boards were terrible, ice was bad, sight lines were poor…. and I had a hell of a good time Don't go into expecting the X though, you'll be disappointed.

Am I being a sensitive or does that seem unfair that some games allow extra time for a win/loss decision? Not every team has the same amount of time to decide their games that have NCAA tournament implications.

Oh wow, I didn't even see that Omaha was 50/1! I might even throw $20 at that. Unfortunately I won't be getting to Vegas until May or I'd get in on this action. Probably $20 on Omaha and $100 on the Sioux.

BC the odds on favorite at 4/1? I feel like Vegas is remembering too many of the past BC teams. Denver at 50/1 wouldn't be ridiculous... worth putting $5 on at least Of course, UND at 5/1 would be a lock though EDIT: Just realized Minesota is 5/2, whaatttt?!

It's a prepay so the one downside is that you can't cancel or change your reservation once it's accepted. However, I did save about $160 on our stay versus booking straight through the hotel. But the map they show you gives you a good idea of where you'll be downtown Minneapolis and I believe all hotels would be connected by skyway.

FYI just booked my room through priceline 'name your own price'. Chose dowtown minneapolis, 4 star hotel, and it was accepted at $65/night at the Marriot City Center which is a couple of blocks from the Target Center.

Correct, Matej Tomek is from Slovakia. There was actually a good interview with him on the Pipeline Show where they talk to him about his commitment to UND. His English isn't perfect but it's much better than my Slovakian . My favorite part of the interview was him saying 'North Dakota is always one of the best schools in the country, and this year best' or something to that effect. http://www.thepipelineshow.com/media.php?s=1420088400&e=1438315200&sn=10 (Epsiode #9, Segment 5)

I kid, I kid. Seriously though, I've heard cops have cracked down on underage drinking to the point they're hassling students even if they aren't making a scene. I'm more in the camp of don't question college students for drinking unless they're being morons.

So you're saying every weekend used to be a 'blackout weekend' at The Ralph?

I'd prefer not to start the cow bell trend at The Ralph, I'd go crazy halfway through the season.

Guess I didn't follow, thought they were saying the sh** got dropped. Thanks for the helpful response though.

I heard bye's twitter account tweeted "nothing in Grand forks but 6 pts...and red pepper" If that's not bulletin board material, I don't know what is.

Not to mention when CC lost to Omaha 4-1 on Saturday they outshot Omaha something like 28-14.

Wait what? I thought they still said "he sucks sh**". Don't think you have to go back to 87 for that. I remember the students saying that and I was born in 87!

Stecher paired with Ausmus, Schmaltz with Keaton. Otherwise same lineup

Can't wait

3-2 Sioux, goals by Drake, Stecher and Parks

Seriously though, I thought we started off looking really good in the 1st with tons of chances we ether whiffed on or tried to get too cute with. Then UNO took over until a little ways into the 2nd. After that it was all UND and it's amazing we only scored 2 goals. Those 2 pipes were the only time I've been absolutely sure 2 pucks went in only to see they hit post and went out. Then Caggiula scores with 30 seconds and it feels like the air force game all over again. Except this time it's against a legitimate contending team. In OT I thought the first penalty was warranted but Ortega was so soft on his skates all game I'm surprised they gave them a 5 on 3. I understand people saying don't give the refs the chance to make that call but the guys standing right in front of your net. Should Mac whisper sweet nothings in his ear to be sure a penalty isn't called? There's a line you have to play on when you're already down a man. The 5 on 3 at the end of 65 minutes essentially handed UNO the game so I was not surprised to see them score. Our guys were gassed, as they should be after playing such a game. Then to top it all off, Ortega comes out for the interview and states "the penalties weren't even close". That would earn a player a fine in most pro leagues and was a classless thing to do on his part after just scoring the game winner in the "biggest game in UNO history". But its all history and we are still in fine position despite the disappointment. Go get em tonight, Let's Go Sioux!

This is not an acceptable position, it's black or white on this site! So either fire everyone or give them raises after each game!

Absolutely agree, he looks like he doesn't care anymore, doesn't want to ever hit anyone...ever

Get him on the phone!

I don't mind a few "stolen" chants as long as the student section is into the game. I think Wisconsin claims MN stole it from them too so who really cares.

I said second biggest, and I was mostly joking. However, I would prefer that same result.

Is the second biggest the 'outdoor' series? I'll take another result like that, please and thank you.

Ha!
