  1. 1. Its not UND's logo its more the Central Redskins logo

    2. At least half are from Fargo and do NOT attend UND

    3. If it were UND students...why not use one of the UND logos (past or present) and not this one.

    My guess...Bison fans!!

    Way to go, Encyclopedia Brown!! Are you still charging $.25 per case?

  2. Brad Marchand is a puke.....which everyone but Boston fans agree on. However, I do not think he embellished last night. It was knee on knee which Smith deserved a penalty on. The knee was totally unintentional though. That's hockey...a lot different than Cooke's situation.

    Agree....it was absolutely a 2 min penalty. The little ball of puke was trying to milk it for a 5 though. There's been athlete's who have actually blown out their knee, that were in less "pain" than he was. He couldn't even put weight on it as he left the ice...but didn't miss a shift.
  3. I could agree with substituting Ausmus with Mattson in certain situations. I wouldn't separate Thompson and Stecher and Schmaltz and LaDue is too enticing to pass up IMO. Mattson, Ausmus and Poolman will all see ice time unless two of those three play too well to take out of the lineup.

    Schmaltz and LaDue = :cool:

    Mattson, unless he gets hurt, will be in the lineup every game next season.

    Thompson will either play with Schmaltz or LaDue.

  4. This would be an interesting wager if one was prone to that sort of thing:

    Minnesota/Boston College/Wisconsin/Quinnipiac vs. the field.

    On one side: the #1 seeds from the West, Midwest, and Northeast, plus the #2 seed from the East

    On the other side: the other 12 teams in the tournament

    KRACH suggests that Minnesota, BC, UW, and Quinnipiac will win the tourney a combined 50.35 percent of the time.

    Which side would you take? I would think that wagers on both sides of this equation would be fairly even, considering some big names are still in the field: Union, UMass-Lowell, Denver, North Dakota, St. Cloud State, Notre Dame, Ferris State, etc.

    Discuss. :)

    Those are nicely matched. That's an important point about the way to interpret the odds... one might think that because so many championships have gone to teams predicted at 2% and 7% teams means the predictions were wrong. But, teams with under a 7% chance add up to 44%, which means its almost even odds the winner will have had an under 7% chance.

    Does anyone know where the article is that showed percentages of teams winning the frozen four? It showed the four top seeds win it a little over 50% of the time and all the others which have individually about a 7% chance to win it, but collectively these seeds win it just under 50% of the time? Thought it was interesting and I wanted to show it to someone, thanks.

    Is this what you are talking about Bigskyvikes?
