Dude can steal games

Yes, we want MSU playing loose as well but that wasn't the question

Just to be clear, 3-2 Michigan St. So good for us!

I'm thinking at least the replays will be vastly improved this year. That scoreboard looks impressive, sort of similar to Amalie Arena... which is a fantastic arena

I know, just givin you crap bud haha I wish I was going so badly but made plans with the wife for this weekend a while ago. Will save myself for the Fargo regionals.

OH GOOD FOR YOUUUU!!!

Please tell me you're joking...

I said the same thing when it happened. The insane part is that other fans said 'well you used to have that nickname, shouldn't you be on the protestors side?'.

RIT was the 16 seed that last year, but Providence was the last team to receive an at-large bid to get in.

There's a lot of us. I always laugh at the 'hockey only' references because some people actually believe the majority of the 12k fans that fill The Ralph don't care about any of the other sports.

Although your transgressions are great, you can pick yours up at the United Center on April 8th.

You can pick up your fan card at the REA box office... was worried we'd have to banish you for the remainder of the season.

If I've learned anything from last year, it's that your draw in the NCAAs hardly matters. I've thought we had cake regionals before and lost in the 1st round. I thought we had one of the toughest paths possible last yr and won it all. In other words, I've given up cheering for one regional draw over another.

Not sure how US Women's Hockey wanting more money lends itself to a left vs right political discussion. I mean if you wanna stretch it sure, but you can take any subject and warp it into relating to politics indirectly.

Yup

I'd think Williams from Canisius wins the Richter, he's got some gaudy #s for a team that wasn't expected to be as good as they were.

Luv for short

Yeah we have always seemed to have an underperforming PP, not sure the reason. However, I was specifically referring to just the zone entry w/ possession. It has seemed to improve greatly since Shaw came in. I love the play where: 3 players skate to the blue line with the Center having puck possession > before the blue line he turns around and passes it back to one of the trailers > Trailer reads the defense and either passes to other trailer who carries it in or carries it in himself if there's an opening. Seen them do it dozens of times this yr and it has a great success rate.

One thing I'll say about Coach Shaw is that he seems to have figured out zone entries on the PP. It'd be great if we could somehow track this because I feel like our % of entering the zone and maintaining control of the puck on the PP has skyrocketed since he came in.

I was thinking the same thing, never seen a game shift so heavily from one team to the other halfway through. It was all Gophers... then all Sioux and then some. There was a drunk Gopher fan taunting all the Sioux fans in our section for the first 3 goals. Never seen a guy disappear so quickly after we made it 4-3.

I don't think I'm an old timer but it definitely brought back memories from the Old Ralph for me too

2006 Regionals @ The Ralph > 2014 Regionals @ Scheels Arena > Any Regular Season Game @ The Ralph

I really doubt that your everyday employee at Scheel's is pushing a false narrative to sell interlocking ND merchandise, seems a bit far-fetched.

I think he was referring to UMD

I'm curious what our odds would've been had we needed 3 games to beat SCSU.
