After watching the replay again, I was wrong about when the play was blown dead. Bruess actually made a nice hustle play to keep the puck live as the extra attacker was joining the play...how he did it is somewhat debateable but after watching it again I don't think it was malicious on his part.

I was joking. I would never say anything to a player's sister or girlfriend or mom*, was just in a roundabout way insinuating that she was a tough looking women whoever she was. *unless said person says something first...such as the time at the Final 5 a couple years ago when I was walking back to our suite from the carving station and 3 girls in gopher jerseys were walking towards me and one of them says "Sioux Suck", as I continue by them I see that one of them has kaufmann on the back of her jersey so not being able to help myself I ask her if she is Kaufmann's sister or girlfriend and she says why would you think that I am his sister or girlfriend and I said who the f*&k else would wear an Eric Kaufmann Jersey and she says "it's Evan" and I said "oh, Eric, Evan, whatever" and kept walking.

I saw Trevor Bruess's mom? or sister? or girlfriend???(I honestly couldn't venture a guess as to which, she was wearing a FM Jets Jersey) after the first period last night and was going to say something to her about him being a hack...but I was afraid, very afraid!

One other thing that has been overlooked on the Bruess hit is that everyone on the ice knew their was a delayed penalty call on the Sioux and as soon as the Sioux gained control of the puck which they did right before the hit(not as late and blatently cheap as the Paukovich hit on Bina, but the same scenario) so at best his actions were late and unnecessary.

Once the game starts you can get into the bars with a game ticket. With the roped off section being off-limits to those without club tickets. It is usually crowded and you can only really see the game on the televisions or the arena big screen

Haven't you been to a game at Mariucci? They don't know, they need everything explained to them in very simple terms.

Halos? The Sioux don't wear no stinking halos!

Huskies up 2-0 late in the 2nd in Anchorage

4-3 DU a couple minutes left

That don't matter to Gwoz. His team draws penalties. other teams dive

got it again. another umd power play. gwoz is probably checking the traction on his shoes again

crap. lost it. any tips?

sweet! was going to purchase it on b2 but they are having problems

Notre Dame looks good. 1-0 and they have had the puck for the first 8 minutes almost exclusively

I have attended the Sioux and St. Cloud series for about the last 4 or 5 years and have never had a ticket until I walked up to the arena at gametime. If you don't mind standing room tix you will be fine and many times I have found people right by the ticket counter all but giving tickets away.

2 positives from the game tonight. We didn't lose. Shep has an instructional video for his officials.

I'd rather have a Moe's!

Correct. Assistant coach Moody even said as much at the last Sioux Boosters meeting in Fargo. He said we would be fooolish not to look at the blueprint of how NDSU has been able to be successful in their transition. We are not going to be getting too many NBA type players as a D 1 program which is why we are not implementing a dribble drive athletic based offense but rather the Princeton type offense and while it's implementation may not fit the players that are currently in our program, you have to look at the big picture and I think I will give coach Jones and his staff the opportunity to build the program and recruit the pieces for this system. Give them a little time.

I think when you play at UAA, those games do not count against the total amount of games you can schedule in the regular season?

That's what I said?

I was at the Sioux boosters when this came up and Dane was referring to St. Cloud. Someone asked him if St. Clopud was out recruiting us in Section 8 and he said "yeah, maybe a little", but UND isn't going to offer a 16 year old too often and especially not a 16 year old goalie. I have heard that all things equal Lee would have rather went to UND, but took the offer from St. Cloud because they offered probably 2 years before UND would have(and certainly no guarantee)

Woog does know hockey and is a great guy to talk to. I watched the replay of Saturday's game and Woog knew the game and what was up right when they lined up for the face off when he said and I quote exactly "Lucia HAS to go here" and then had to backtrack and join "the rug" and spin it for the FSN Gopher faithful when Little Lucia decided to skate away and as person who does know hockey I'm sure he was probably a little disappointed in his lack of testosterone.

Don Adam is a perfect example of why it doesn't matter if WCHA officials open their mouths or not. They aren"t held accountable anyway. Although Don Adam was kept from doing UND games for a little while, he is back doing them again despite his babbling at Sugar's something to the effect of "I hate the Sioux and Matt Greene is a hack" and how he didn't mind sticking it to the Sioux whenever he gets the chance. Guess he doesn't feel that way anymore?

Minnesota fans and media types have been babbling about 23 year old Canadians for years so they have repeated it so much they probably think it's true. One thing that I know is true is that you would have to look through alot of rosters to find any players who played in the WCHA that were older than 2 former Gophers. Dan Woog was 25 as a senior for the Gophers and Goalie Steve Debus was also 25 and had he come back for his 4th season would have been 26. Stu Bickel also happened to be a 21 year old freshman for the Golden Angels on Ice last season. One thing I think Lou nanne did get right was his statement "what alot of people tend to forget is physicality is also a talent and skill, but it's not a skill the gophers possess and UND excels at it."
