I'm not too picky. Either way works for me!

Here's to a 6-0 BC win!

Saw Zucker's last game as a collegiate player and will see his 1st as a pro tonight. That's the 1st time I can ever say that about any hockey player! I guess I'll get to see directly how skills translate to the pros.

That's the point you wanted to key in on? So do other arenas have a "bid" in for these events or do they prefer not to have regionals in their town because they hate all of the business it brings in?

Well then I think there is something seriously wrong with the Sioux being the 1 seed and playing across the river from the U's campus, but it's because the Gophers are given a host regional/Frozen Four so often. In the only standings that matter come NCAA time the Sioux finished well ahead of your Rodents because of your less than stellar non-conference play. It's not just the WCHA games that matter. I wouldn't say you were exactly "dominant" when you gave up 6 unanswered goals for a loss leading into NCAA tournament play which resulted in you winning 3 of the 5 meetings up until that time. You were ahead but "dominant" is taking it too far.

I would give you pretty much anything for that jersey. That is awesome!

I'll be pulling for Ferris State

Then again, BC was supposed to have an easy time with Michigan State in '07... you never know

at a "home" venue

Yeah I feel the same way. I just hadn't heard much at all about their top line until that point. Don't think they score a lot of goals or anything (not that that is the only important thing) but our top line brings it most every night

According to USCHO, WMU has arguably one of the top lines in the nation...I think that'd be a tough argument to win

That was pretty hilarious

They ruin everything!

As many fans as goals in the championship game. In all fairness there was a contingent of fans in the section next to me that had to be at least 8 people deep!

3 Sioux Fans in Section 108 Row 12!

If Seth Jones commits to UND I will be extremely excited...there, that better?

This is going a bit off topic but I'm curious...why did the previous ceremony where the Sioux tribe blessed (blessed may not be the correct word) the use of the name for the University not take care of this requirement? Was it not typed on NCAA sanctioned paper? Is the blessing only good for a certain number of years, like an expiring blessing? I get your comment above that this is what the NCAA is requiring but why hasn't the past event I mentioned provided precedence to take care of this?

Great Picture!

You just keep digging your hole deeper, saying he sucks is just clueless. That value in the locker room carries onto the ice. Go ask Hakstol or any of Mario's teammates for their assessment of Mario. I bet you they'd laugh in your face if you told them he sucked. No one ever said he was great... did they?

I found the best way to handle those fans was ignore them and cheer extra loud in their general direction when the Sioux mounted that insane comeback. That was the best hockey game I have ever been to hands down! I'm still in shock that it happened and made me very proud of this team and proud to be a fan of the Fighting Sioux.

I believe we should be since we are the highest seed. I'm sitting in 108

4 rows behind you, Go SIOUX!!!

I'm not talking about pattyn. You said Mario sucks... now go enjoy your crow

Exactly!

Do you wanna backpedal on this a little bit NOW???
