Good point. I'm so surprised that Dell isn;t starting. I hope for a good outing from Eidsness for his sake mostly. Confidence is key in hockey, especially at goalie.

I would like to see EIds soon, feel bad for him considering his been a backstop for us for the last couple years, but as a coach you have to go with the hot hand. I'd be so surprised if we saw him Friday night. So depending on Dells play on Friday, we could see Eids.

Completely agree. Chilly fired yes! He should've gone besides Moss (although Moss at times doesn't give his all). We have a good shot at McNabb for next season if things fall out with the Redskins, even with the new contract the Redskins are only obligated to pay him something like 4 million if they release him after the season. So little chance at Vick, I'd put my money on McNabb.

Crazy seeing UND basketball on the big stage (ESPN). I like the jersey's too. Final score: Alot to a little.

Brad reports that Grimaldi according to Red Line Report is ranked around 66. Might be mostly due to his size, dropping so much. A lot can happen from ages 18-21 though so I wouldnt be surprised for him to grow a couple inches. Hopefully we'll see Rocco for 3+ yrs! http://undhockey.areavoices.com/?p=85494

This is the best post on Michaelson I've seen. The kid made a decision that worked for him and I hope it does work out for him (granted I hope he never wins a game against UND or sees the NCAA tourney). I hate going on these I have this friend and his uncles, 2nd cousins, roomate, said this "..." . Let us so a little respect to him and his family.

It makes sense for him to commit to the gophers. Good for him to choose the gophers. No sweat off our back, sad thing is he probably wont see much playing time first couple years. I'll welcome him to the Ralph to play the Sioux.

Man that sucks. Had a chance for another sweep and blew it from sloppy play. Why on earth were we playing our fight song right after their goal? DANG IT!

Sloppy so many turnovers for the Sioux. UMD looks a lot crisper.

Poor finish to the period for the Sioux. We're looking a little slow right now, need to pick it up. Huge PK coming up to start the period.

I missed it too! Got a call during the goal.

This is an important PK, Sioux are buzzing right now

Congrats Brock Nelson! First collegiate goal!!!

Goal Knight. Assist from Genoway. Thank you refs, we appreciated that!

Agreed. Really didnt need to call a pen on that one.

Wow, calling a pen on Fontaine for shooting the puck after the whistle.

Seriously was an NHL type goal. Tick tac toe. What else could Dell do really?

What a goal by UMD, jeez, doesnt get better than that.

Full strength now. Ugly PP for the Sioux

Rodwell looks dang good! Fast/smart hockey IQ. PP coming up for the Sioux! Lets finish them

I havent seen the whole game, but we sure look like the better team.

Big goal for us! Too bad we take a pen so quickly afterwards, its time to bury the bulldogs

Huge weekend for moral and confidence! Lets get a win against DU, I hate them nearly more than that Gophers. Getting swept in both series last year hurt, now its our turn!

Its already been stated, but I sure hope we see Kristo up on one of the top two lines. Hes just too talented I'd like to see him making plays with Gregoire or Frattin.

I was excited when we landed Danny Mattson with how he torn up Minnesota hockey, I guess it's taken him some time to develop. Remember though we have 7 seniors graduating this year, 4 being forwards. Thats not including any flight risks to pros (Gregoire, Kristo, I'd be surprised if Blood was gone) or transfers which is probably highly likely with our talent we have sitting. We'll have the same amount of total skaters in 2011 as we have this year(23). Just more of a logjam at forward instead of defense this year. 2011 - Possible not including JT Miller Andrew MacWilliam D Jun Joe Gleason D Jun Ben Blood D Sen Ryan Hill D Jun Derek Forbort D Soph Dillon Simpson D Soph Nick Mattson D Fresh Total Defense 7 Danny Kristo F Jun Michael Cichy F Jun Mario Lamoureux F Sen Corban Knight F Jun Brett Bruneteau F Jun Jason Gregoire F Sen Brett Hextall F Sen Carter Rowney F Jun Derek Rodwell F Soph Brock Nelson F Soph Colten St Clair F Fresh Michael Parks F Fresh Danny Mattson F Fresh Brendan O'Donnell F Fresh Mark MacMillin F Fresh Rocco Grimaldi F Fresh Total Forwards 16 Brad Eidness G Sen Aaron Dell G Jun Tate Maris G Jun Total Goalies 3 Total Skaters 23
