  1. Grimaldi is playing on the 4th line tonight with Senkbeil and Gleason. I really hope he is at 100% and putting him on the 4th line is just to ease him into real competition. If he is indeed 100% healthy, I doubt he makes it a full game playing on that line, I would expect him to be on the powerplay as well.

    putting him on the 4th line will keep his minutes down....
  2. I'm still going buy season tickets if and when the sioux name is retired (still waiting for a miracle). I dont care if we have no nickname or choose turd sandwhich or the fightin shelterbelts(grand forks county is billed as the" shelterbelt capital of the world"). but i will not buy season tickets for a AHL or any other junior !@#$ fest team and my guess is few will .....it wont fly!!!

  3. I disagree about Forbort... while he didnt play outstanding he was far from struggling...however simpson is a different story he was TERRIBLE...i mean six periods of terrible....he's our worst defensemen right now....if mattson and gleason werent playing so well together i would say put 5 with Mac....however Hak does it mattson needs more ice time>5 is our best defensemen right now!!!!

  4. As a Sioux hockey season ticket holder... i really dont care about " like-minded instituions" ,a conference of only div 1 schools,or improving the "national footprint". I want to see hockey teams that bring excitement to the ralph.SCSU brings that....uaa,bemidj,mankato,and certainly not tech brought that... even when games were close with these teams the atmosphere was not the same as duluth,goofers,wisconsin,cc denver and st cloud. Look at the teams we have now in the NCHC...every weekend is going to be something to look forward to ....

    Denver & Colorado College ...enough said

    Uno...Dean Blais returns and will bring talent every year

    Duluth....they now have a national championship

    Miami...have had really good teams and talented players the past few years...that shouldnt change

    WMU....Regional semi-finals last year and Andy Murray as their new head coach... they will only get better

    SCSU....We hate the clowns, aaron marvin(they will always have a marvin type),and their announcers.....but the games are still exciting

    Who else could the NCHC really get to top that........BC,BU,NH,or Maine wont happen...

    So that leaves Notre Dame....i hope they join ....but if they dont the NCHC is a way more attractive league then the current WCHA!!

  5. With the defense and goaltending the Sioux have back goal scoring won't need to be as prolific as last year.I see alot of 3-1,2-1,and 3-2 type games for the first half of the year after that the scoring should pick up a bit.

    I'm not concerned about our goaltending or our defensemen either but it takes more than 3 to keep the puck out of the net...it also takes forwards committed to the defensive zone....thats why players like cichy had a hard time staying in the lineup.....it also helps when you can put 30-40 shots a game on the other teams goalie....defending your own zone is real easy when your 200 feet away from it....how successfull the sioux will be this season will depend on how many forwards we have that can contribute not only in the offensive zone but also the defensive zone

  6. I'm guessing this is for the women. as the ice breaker will be the opener for us other than the manitoba exhibition. the sioux women have a return trip out there being bu came here last year.

    good call...it was for the women...prob a good thing that would have been a tough month!!....it is already!

  7. And I've still got some swampland to sell you!

    ok ...so you dont believe the story. You might be right....My point is that its not up to the coaches to "fill in the gaps" .....thats up to Danny and his family. If you have done nothing wrong why not come out and say that right away. RIGHT?

  8. Allow me one, big, "what they did wrong":

    They needed to get ahead of the Kristo story. When there are gaps in the storyline people fill it in with their own narrative, and it's seldom positive and always distracting.

    dont put that on the coaches....thats all on the kristo family!!!! He wasnt drinking,he had done nothing wrong other than not dressing properly. Why not come out and tell the story right away...The family could have prevented alot of the distraction and speculation!

  9. I agree, I've always liked Duluth, even when they have idiot fans like Running with the Dummies who just gave me a negative vote.

    :lol:

    didnt mean to give u a neg...was trying to see who gave u -1...will give u a +1 soon

  10. Only missed two home games this year,went to the final five.....said i wasnt going to go but i just bought my tickets . My three year old son and I will be there rooting on Blen Blood(not a typo thats how my son says his name) and the boys!!!
