HB1263, instructing the State Board of Higher Education to keep the Fighting Sioux Nickname, just passed the state House by a 65

Sioux don't sound like there on at all tonight. St Cloud plenty of chances this 2nd period.
i think the way st cloud is playing might have something to do with that....their playing pretty well right now....earlier in the week somebody said that kato would be a tough playoff series...so will st cloud if they keep playing like they have the past two weekends

the sioux use a similar style at times....they run a zone forecheck where all three forwards are no deeper than the hashmarks in the offensive zone....and back out as the opposing team starts to breakout ...same concept ...plug up the neutral zone ...looking for a turnover
-
correct, in the neutral zone trap you are responsible for an area of the ice, not a player.
Pros and cons are: You are almost never going to get an odd-man rush, but you will never give up an odd-man rush. You will have few scoring chances, but if you can force a couple off of turnovers, they should be really good looks. The opponent should never come through the neutral zone with numbers and speed...
it also helps hide a teams lack of speed and skill players

Anyone seen the freshman D (Aide) from Bott. play? Averaging 2 points/game for a freshman D is pretty impressive.
He's a forward... must be a mistake on the ND HS website!

I was thinking last weekend after the series with UNO was over, that, looking at our remaining ten games, a 9-1 run (8-2 worst case scinario) was very realistic. I still believe that. I know we've got all bottom five teams remaining on the schedule, but you are going to lose some in this league. I absolutely love when we play UAA. In my opinion, they are the one team in this league that year in and year out can and will match us physically. And as a fan that aspect of the game, I get really jacked up for that series. And unlike the two "major metropolitan area" teams in the WCHA, you'll never hear, "Oh boo hoo. Big bad North Dakota plays to rough.' coming from the UAA camp. Dave Shyiak and his squad will always have my respect for that.
Thats why our SOS is so high ....we have 6 teams in the top 20....and 11 that can beat just about anybody on a given night.If you have an off night night you will lose in the WCHA....and if you play poorly you can get embarrassed like we did against UNO!! Its funny we split with good teams and we act like we have the worst team in the country.Even good teams have bad stretches(if we can call these past three weekends a bad stretch).There was a year awhile back were we we lost to the gophers in nov 10-6....had a three weekend stretch in jan were we split all three series(losing one game 8-3).Then got swept by denver in the last series of the season. Then went unbeaten in the postseason and won the national title(97)....lets not call for haks head everytime we lose a game....or say this wouldnt of happened if Blais were coaching because his teams had their stretches too.Hak has the sioux in great postion right now.... all we need is that postseason roll!!!!!!!

i agree.... the good news is that,if i understand it right, ice breaker games do not count for number of games allowed....extra homes games for us!!
