Two loves in my life: Fighting Sioux Hockey and Metal.
I'm a '95 graduate of Colorado College. I bleed green and black so my 2nd favorite team after the Sioux is Colorado College.
I also play guitar. I love anything loud with lot's of distortion-Pantera, George Lynch, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Metallica, Megadeth, Disturbed, etc. As my username indicates, I'm a huge fan of the Boston-area band Godsmack. Devil Horns to the Sky!
When Robson opened, they announced a cashless experience. My guess is, they weren’t the first and probably won’t be the last. I’d like it if cash were still an option but it isn’t and it isn’t going to change anytime soon. It’s probably more about speed and efficiency for the concession workers to get through the customers standing in line. I do my part to help them by buying my Mike & Ike’s and Lemonheads at Walgreens before the game.
The jerseys that say ‘North Dakota’ take me back to the early 90’s. The teams weren’t very good and they’d just removed the classic Chicago Blackhawks Indian head logo which I was pretty bitter about. Am I correct in my recollection that those teams didn’t have much trouble scoring goals but sure couldn’t keep them from ending up in the back of our net as well?
The irony isn’t lost on me that I can’t stand DU while watching them play UND but I respect the hell out of their last four coaches-Frank Serratore, Gwoz, Monte, and Carle. They’re definitely ambassadors of the game.
Pardon me if this has been addressed but does anyone have any insight as to when we can expect to hear who’ll fill the last remaining two roster spots?
Is it me or did Woden seem awfully evasive (and a tad defensive) when Carle pressed him to provide specifics backing his position on the whole home site issue? Carle handed him his lunch, IMO.
Just wanted to let everyone know I’m doing my part to help support the Grand Forks economy. In town visiting family and stopped at the Red Pepper for a grinder (with taco meat) and a soda.
Seriously. When the next destination game in Austin was announced what, last fall, I more or less shrugged my shoulders and moved on with my day, resigning to the fact I wasn’t going to go. Now it’s actually something I’m kinda excited about possibly attending.
To CC, next to Denver I bet they’d say UND is their biggest NCHC rival. They’re still talking about the 4 game sweep of UND from two seasons ago. I think there’s even talk of hanging a banner to commemorate the achievement.
