Lets change our name to the University of North Dakota Spirit Lake Fighting Sioux, I would be interested to know how that would be received by the NCAA, seeing as it would be in compliance with there rule of obtaining approval. Obviously, this would still have political issues; just a fun argument to make . . .

I though they both UND and WMU played really well today, but they both play the exact same style hockey creating a very neutral game. Tomorrow the playing style will not be as similar with Minnesota being a faster and more high powered offense and UND playin a solid D game. UND will need to take advantage of their scoring opportunities and play solid special teams. No dumb penalties either. UND needs to control the tempo of the game and keep a slower pace (shots, rebounds and garbage goals if we want to win), if the goofs start rolling it could get ugly. Go Sioux!

Agreed, we need to play solid D without penalties. Special teams will win this game.

Agreed, I don't think there is a true favorite in this matchup. It just depends which gopher and which sioux team shows up.

I agree Bjugstad doesn't look like himself lately. As for UND and WMU, i though they both played really well, but they both play the exact same style hockey creating a very neutral game. Tomorrow the playing style will not be as similar with Minnesota being a faster and more high powered offense and UND playin a solid D game. UND will need to take advantage of their scoring opportunities and play solid special teams. No dumb penalties either. UND needs to control the tempo of the game and keep a slower pace (shots, rebounds and garbage goals if we want to win), if the goofs start rolling it could get ugly. Go Sioux!

if Seth pick UND, would he be coming next year? or the year after that?

PASSED!!!! On to the Senate!!! GO SIOUX!!!!

there is the penalty everyone said was coming

I always like it when another Sioux fan will admit when there was no penalty and just a good clean hit. Kinda drove me crazy in the first when the fans were calling for a penalty on a great play by Donovan. I'm a homer but not everything in a penalty going the Sioux's way. . . opposing team make good plays too. . . .GO SIOUX!!

Touchdown!!

These announcers for USD are awful

Just throwing this out there . . . I can't believe there are even people out there that think we should be firing Hak. Sure he hasn't won a title yet, but look at what he has done. He has a great record, been to multiple frozen fours, won the WCHA title, won the WCHA final five. Sure they are having a rough go this season but lets remember they still have a lot of time to do a lot of things, not to mention they are playing without some big talent. A lot of teams would love to be in our position right now (ranked #6) - not to bad. Now, i liked Blais too and it would be cool to see him coach the Sioux again, but Hak is certainly deserving of his position. With how many one goal losses this team has right now, they are a few mistakes away from be a very dangerous team. That is what Hak has built a legacy on is correcting first half mistakes, lets give him a little time, and if it doesn't work out, well, God forbid a coach has one bad year (with a lot of young player I'll remind you). Gophers are doing it, they are correcting a ton of first half mistakes. I was at the recent Sat game and while they did have a few fluke goals, they played a hell of a series. Much better than the Goofer team from a month ago. Not to mention Kangas was on a roll. Look for these guys to make a statement as the season winds down. I hate saying that. This will be a big weekend for the Sioux, beating Cornell would put the team on the right track for the next few weeks against tough opponents. If this team can be successful over the next 2-3 weeks, i think a lot of fans will be singing a much different tune. GO SIOUX!!

Sally's Saloon is pretty good and only a few blocks from the arena

Regardless of how good or bad the Goofers have played to this point you can bet they will be working hard for next weekends series. Team records aside these two teams tend to have a pretty tight match up. I do give the Sioux the advantage but MN has some dangerous players. I think Lucia has done a pretty bad job this year of utilizing the tools he has. I'll be there Sat, can't wait for some good hockey. Go Sioux, Get 4.

Here is a question for anyone that knows? If Chay cannot come back this year, can he still apply for a medical redshirt, or is that something he would have had to do earlier in the year?? Anyone know for sure? Awesome job tonight boys!

They just got a split on the road against a high powered offensive and ranked team. They are ranked #3 at christmas (which is usually when they hit their stride) What issues are you talking about. These guys are playing good with room to improve. Its a young team and it will take time to create perfection. There should be no complaints, You should hope for road splits, especially against a good team like this.

I drew the logo on a piece of paper and stenciled it onto the pumpkin from that, It took a while but i was happy with the turnout.

Happy Early Halloween Everyone, GO SIOUX!!

put another tally in the "GOT SHUTOUT" column for the goofers

Pioneers just went about 2-0 on MN if anyone cares. WOW MN just can't find the net

So how did this team hang with Texas Tech???

The feed was pretty decent for the most part. It got a lil blotchy once in a while but it was very watchable

I took a look at the link but i didn't see any prices. Any idea how much their webcast costs.

Does anyone know if the game will be picked up on Fox College Sports??
