AHHHHHH WHY CAN'T IT BE FRIDAY??? This weekend feels like a big one. I think the idea of getting Jost back and with the team having been in a scoring slump gives me the premonition that we are going to break out.

No promises.

^^^ Precisely.

So, when you play professionally, you're not allowed to have feelings. Good to know. LOL

100% agree. When we play a full 60, we are as good as anyone and can absolutely sweep Western.

They're the No. 5 team in the PWR. A split would be good things for us.

Saw that, but then said it would destroy bracket integrity. I'm glad he stuck with the best one in those terms

From what I've seen, they seem to be less physical and more dynamic this season then the past few. That being said, Lawson will be loud for us. They know they have the defending champs in their barn and they want to make a statement that they are for real. We need to be really, really good next week to sweep.

Fun? That's not my definition of fun. That's stressful haha. Yes, that would be pretty nuts.

Of course it is, but we still have 9 days again until we get to watch our boys. What else are we gonna do? lol

It's not because either team stands out to me over the other, it's because I don't want to play the Gophers in the first round. Too much acid reflux LOL

Moy's Brackets this week: East Regional (Providence): 14 Vermont vs. 4 Minnesota 10 Boston College vs. 7 Union Northeast Regional (Manchester): 13 Cornell vs. 3 Boston University 12 Massachusetts-Lowell vs. 5 Harvard Midwest Regional (Cincinnati): 15 Air Force vs. 2 Denver 11 Penn State vs. 6 Western Michigan West Regional (Fargo): 16 Bemidji State vs. 1 Minnesota-Duluth 9 North Dakota vs. 8 Providence Again, not easy, but I'd rather face Providence in the first round than Minnesota. That East region is rough.

Sweep WMU and I think we are in (outside of losing out). CC? I don't think we'd play them unless they make it to the Frozen Faceoff. Omaha is good. We are better, but those are games we need. They are in desperation mode, too.

That's fair. Guess I'm just seeing each game as a way to get to Fargo, not to solidify NCHC rankings. One in the same is fine with me, too.

I'm in full-on, survival mode for the National Tournament. Honestly, the conference is moot to me, right now. Getting home ice would be great, but just get in to the tourney. That's all I care about

Definitely. That and a lack of overall continuity and chemistry. Bubbs seems to have to keep finding sparks.

Good for you. I despise NDSU. I will make fun of them with any chance I get lol.

*cough* FCS *cough* lol Yes, yes... I know, so are we, but not in hockey

Man, I love it. Just another feather in our cap and another recruiting tool. How mad is NDSU, right now?!?!

I absolutely think he will, too. There's been so much juggling at this point, why not, right? Putting our best players together isn't a bad idea.

He was excellent. If he plays like that and we get Jost back 100%, this team is going to be just fine.

I hope he was kidding. If not, what an asinine comment lol.

Oh jeebus, just stop. Boeser was phenomenal on Saturday and has played most of the year with an injury that required FRICKIN' SURGERY. You're sitting here criticizing him for not being a leader? You go have surgery and come back and lead your work team and see how things go. Cripes.

Friday: Gersich, Saturday: Jost

I LOVE that second line. Great idea, Yzer.
