  1. Now I have a reason to watch the Frozen Four! Go Beavers!
  2. Yeah, and that wouldn't have been possible even five years ago. The fact that BSU can compete with anyone in the country (and I believe that includes the vaunted Terriers this year) is good for the sport and for those of us that are fortunate enough to get to watch it every winter.
  3. That tells you how competitive college hockey has gotten over the past five years or so. The number of kids playing hockey has gone up and the areas of the country producing kids has increased, but the number of teams has either stayed the same or gone down. That means fewer really bad teams and a more exciting post-season. Getting a #1 seed isn't the gravy train it once was.
  4. Congratuations Bemidji State! This should bolster their application into the WCHA.
  5. Empty netter for the Beavers. 4-1.
  6. 7:55 left. 3-1 Beavers.
  7. 3-1 Bemidji State!!!! YES!!!
  8. Whatever they work out, just letting the Beaver program die is not an option. I don't want to go back to a 12 team NCAA field with two regionals of six teams each. That was a cheesy set-up and I never liked it.
  9. It looks like they borrowed kids off of the Cornell wrestling team!
  10. Beavers tie it. 1-1 5:34 left in the 2nd Period.
  11. 1-0 Cornell. Come on Beavers!
  12. There was and it also had Lacrosse on it, so that wouldn't have helped in that situation.
  13. Thank God for technology!
  14. Oh really? You just love to make comments about other posters, don't you? I've followed this program for a long time and the media has never done us any favors. You can dispute it and make smart remarks all you want, but I just call them as I see them. If you don't like it, that's your problem. End Rant.
  15. I AM being real. They love it when we lose and hate it when we win. I think it's mainly because we aren't an East coast school in a big media market. Whatever the reason, it makes winning on a national stage more fun.
  16. ESPN has always been anti-UND, that's what I love the most about winning National Championships. They have to cover our triumphs whether they like it or not (like in the Flutie love-fest game in 2000).
  17. I also hate Minnesota with a passion, along with Denver. I hated the Badgers growing up, but not so much anymore. Notre Dame, despite the NCAA title game appearance last season, still hasn't proven they are a top-notch Division I program. Bemidji is a tough, hard-working team and they are out-working and out-playing the Irish right now. UND had a tough two-game series against the Beavers this season (a home and home series in early January). It's good for the sport for programs like Bemidji and Air Force to have success in the Big Show.
  18. End of 2 periods, still 3-0 BSU. I think a 4-0 deficit would be close to insurmountable for the Irish, #1 seed or not.
  19. One more BSU goal might do it.
  20. Bemidji State just took a 3-0 lead over Notre Dame with about 6 minutes left in the 2nd period.
  21. I guess I should stop listening to the national media because they ususally don't know what they are talking about. The Wolverines won two titles in three years in 1996 and 1998, but they haven't done much since. I guess I am not alone when it comes to playoff frustration.
  22. Funny!! I didn't hear any of that. It was all about the golden boys from Ann Arbor. And their ringleader Kevin Porter. Until Notre Dame crashed the party and sent the Maize and Blue home early.
  23. I think UNH will give them a tougher test than that.
  24. The whole team slumped after the Sunday afternoon OT win vs. Colorado College. The goal vs. Duluth in the Final Five was a boneheaded mistake, but there were a lot of odd-man rushes and powerplay goals that he couldn't do much about. Sometimes I think goalies get too much credit and also too much blame. You win as a team and lose as a team.
  25. Agreed, that would be awesome. And it would help Bemidji's program big-time. The WCHA would all of a sudden welcome them with open arms. This would help their recruiting and scheduling. And the Beavers would become an annual playoff contender. I would gladly tolerate a 12 team league if it helped a legitimate hockey school like BSU thrive and succeed.
