YES! Also, PLAY WALSKI! SIT LaPoint! It's all Brian Lee's fault!! OooooOOoooh, I can't wait for the NCAA Hockey video game for PS3!!!!

I'm a bit wary of this whole deal, but perhaps they should put them all in the CHA and voila. Two problems solved. And, yes, the ineligible players on their roster will be sizable. Also, as of this time, there are few that can actually compete with DI. UAlberta has fielded some pretty good teams recently. I am not sure how much of an impact this will have on the bigger DI hockey schools (UND, BC, Minnesota, Michigan, etc.) because their programs and facilities tend to speak for themselves. The major losers in this case are the smaller programs like Mankato, BSU, MTU, UAF, UAA, and so on because many Canadian prospects that they'd normally be able to snatch up (including some NHL draftees) will opt for the Canadian schools rather than some out of the way place (even though I don't feel that Mankato is that terribly out of the way). So, yeah, if I were Shyiak, I'd be very disappointed in this. This won't really affect UND, UMN, or UW that much.

CC up 2-0. DU just scored a shorty to go up 4-2. Both games in the 3rd period. UAA/UW just underway.

I'm figuring AZ means that lately he has been because for a stretch of time, Genoway was playing forward.

Forgive the ignorance, but what is a "G10"

I guess I don't notice any difference. Both have made mistakes on the ice this year thus far. Both have looked like freshmen at times. LaPoint, however, has made more strides offensively than Marto has, so I gave him the edge over Marto. Both have growing to do, for sure. As for Genoway, his flexibility in being a forward and a defenseman puts him in a category by himself. I'm wondering if Hak could do the same thing (eventually) to Marto? I know in high school he skated all over the place and, at times, looked more like a forward than a defenseman. I'm wondering if Hak could translate that into another Genoway type for the Sioux.

With the exception of the 2nd period both nights, I think we played very solidly on both ends of the ice all weekend long.

Ah. That explains it. Can't be more ineffective if you aren't playing.

Not to mention all the man-boobs and chest hair...

I already think LaPoint is a heckuva player. The problem is, we can only play 6 d a night without sitting a forward. With that in mind, Hak is forced to platoon LaPoint and Marto. I wouldn't bench any of the D right now.

I agree. Kozek or perhaps put Frattin back on the top line. Miller may be showing good enough stuff to play in practice, and I'll support Hak in playing him every week if Hak chooses to play him, but I can't recall a single mention of his name tonight... Did Miller play?

KFAN has 20 shirtless Packer Fans. I think there will be 15. One carted away with blue nerples.

Thanks. I've had nothing but trouble with the .tv highlight programs.

Only if we're desperate. I'm not sure we can afford to drop a game. Walski comes in only if JPL gets shelled.

MSUM's second goal seemed of the weak variety, yes, but according to TH, the 3rd goal may have gone off a Sioux defenseman. No visual so I'm not sure. If it was deflected, then Lammy may get off the hook. If not, then he did indeed let in two weak goals.

Not willing to go that far. I think LaPoint and Chorney are tied for second offensively among defensemen. Bina is alone in first. He is, after all, leading the WCHA (if not the NCAA) in defensive scoring. The thing is, I like Marto too. In fact, I didn't think Marto would amount to much his freshman year because of his relative anonymity in the USHL. I'm admitting right now I was wrong. He's been very solid, though he's not really as dynamic offensively as he was in high school. It's truly a great thing to have 7 good defensemen.

Sioux Sweep. Nice job boys.

MSUM gets called for a penalty. I'm almost betting on it getting ugly after the final horn.

Stewart scores. 5-3

UND goes for cross checking. Duncan serves. Thul with a makeup call.

No goal.

MSUM scores? Under review.

Killed off. Good job.

Zajac off for hooking.

What's the faceoff percentage for the Sioux? It seems like we've lost a lot of faceoffs this weekend.
