Lundbohm with a wrister--1-0 Sioux.

Tech pp.

Tech almost scores but Schneider bails out JPar.

Puck dropped.

Bochenski commenting on the trumpet guy last night

TH & Blais skeptical in how the Sioux will respond tonight; both said there's a chance they may play "mechanical", flat.

Porter says he glad he came to N.D. because it fits his style well; attributes his freshman success to feeling comfortable with Blais.

JPar in net. Blais unsure if Sioux will be mentally into game tonight.

Here's to hopefully another solid Sioux performance tonight.

Don't forget about the 100s, if not 1000s, of dedicated fans who cheered the Sioux via the Internet last night. We stuck around & didn't leave, either. Anybody know if the trumpet guy is paid by the REA? That is the only possible explanation I can think of for him being able to sit on the glass like that. And what happened to that big, fluffy polar bear they were touting earlier in the year? Did they deep 6 him? Agreed on ref Mason last night. It sounds like he let them play unlike the refs in Denver & Wisco. And to think he was right up there with Adams in terms of one of the most despised WCHA refs according to Sioux fans earlier in the year. Maybe it was a fluke, but regardless, he deserves a pat on the back for his performance last night.

I agree with everyone's agreements. If the MacNaughton were more important, we'd all have to change our sig lines from 7 to 12. WE LOVE YA, SIOUX!!

Great pic, Pat! Looks like the guys are having a blast & that's great to see.

Hey, Schmitzzz My point was that the WCHA would still be entitled to award the MacNaughton in future years even if Tech were to leave. I believe Michigan won a few MacNaughtons while in the WCHA & I don't see the CCHA awarding the MacNaughton Cup now. I think we're on completely different wavelengths on this issue. Anyway, important thing is the Sioux won tonight.

I'm not sure I get your point. Just because Tech has a cup from 20+ years ago the WCHA would have to find a different one if Tech bolts???

I would think that the WCHA has legal rights to the MacNaughton Cup; besides, it wouldn't make sense for 2 conferences to play for the same-named trophy.

Sounds like Zach's getting mugged by a bunch of 7 y/os.

So the MacNaughton is NOT like the Stanley Cup? Every year a team gets a new one?

That's the right attitude to have. Sharing's a nice concept but not when it comes to the MacNaughton!

Tech coach had to retrieve his players out of the locker room so they could show some respect for the Sioux.

Time to PARTAY!! The Sioux machine has returned.

Did someone jinx Brandt's shutout?

5th WCHA title in 8 years!! 2nd only to Denver's record.

Your humility is appreciated

I wonder if the Sioux players have been told the Duluth score or if Blais will surprise them.

Time to serve them sausages, NDH. I'll take 2, one for me & one for my avatar.
