Sorry to hear your kid is sick. Hate it when the little ones aren't feeling good. I think UND should just win the Frozen Faceoff to leave no doubt regarding the #1 seed.

Why the heck would UND get shipped east if they are a #1 seed? Which is probably what will happen if we beat Omaha on Friday. Omaha's fan base is not even close to the size of UND's, so shipping us out east would hurt attendance in Sioux Falls. Since the NC$$ loves $$$$$, the only reason I can think of is to make it harder for us to get to St. Paul (again). Just a thought.

Denver and North Dakota do not need to win the NCHC tournament. Omaha probably wants to win at least one game to secure an at-large bid. St. Cloud probably needs to win the tournament for the auto-bid.

You know damn well what I meant. That was the domino that caused the other ones to fall. You need 6 teams to form a conference for a sport. Penn State was team #6. Without Penn State, it couldn't have happened, at least not back in 2013. Cute little post, though. PS: I am all for expanding the sport as much as we can.

Yeah, I am not worried about that. With a #3 overall seed, we would have last change against all but two teams. In any event, championship teams find a way even if everything isn't entirely in their favor.

Great minds think alike!

So a win on Friday night would probably lock up a #1 seed? FWIW, in 2016 we were the #3 overall seed.

I am saving my money for the Regional and Frozen Four. Otherwise, I would be there this weekend.

You, me and a bunch of other people. Blame the guy that donated $$$$$ to Penn State to start hockey. That is what ultimately caused this.

We used to have pre and post-game parties during the glory days of the old WCHA Final Five in downtown St. Paul, MN. Those were so much fun.

Wait a minute. I thought things like this didn't happen in Imperial Cass County. Turns out the Center of the Known Universe isn't immune to national trends after all.

I think Sweeney is affable enough to sell advertising.

If they offered Sweeney the broadcasting gig with nothing else required, he might take it. If they insist on the sales component, he'll probably say "no thank you".

Predictions: Friday UND over UNO: Put the Mavs out of their misery. SCSU over DU: Payback for three weeks ago. Saturday UND over SCSU: This should help us secure a #1 seed and placement in Sioux Falls.

Is it spring break at St. Cloud?

April 13th, 2024 Xcel Energy Center Against a certain team that wears Green and White.

2-0 after 2. Keep wearing them down, put a couple more goals on the board and get ready for St. Paul.

That faceoff where they moved the clock from 56 to 59 seconds ended up being important.

I would rather be aligned with @MafiaMan and @Goon than a lot of other people in this world.

It's not like Denver is playing anyone good either.

If we can't hang #9 this year, I would love watching CC hang #3 in St. Paul.

Maybe the Tigers can do what we failed to do last weekend. Put the Mavs out of their misery.

So they are building those homes and apartments for ghosts? Or just as a tax write off? I agree with you on the need for aggressive economic development and I like what Bochenski has tried to do. But the idea that Grand Forks is dying a slow death and emptying out is total nonsense.

Wear them down tonight. Pound the living crap out of them tomorrow. They are getting cheap and need a hard lesson in good manners.

Agreed. Hobie is playing well.
