Listening to CC feed, good broadcast overall. Good announcers who know what they are talking about.

10:02 left, Tigers lead 5-3. Denver on their heels right now.

Power Play over, still 5-3 Tigers.

Less than 14:00 left. Tigers still lead 5-3 Denver going to the box, CC on the Power Play.

Denver going on the Power Play.

16:25 left in third period; CC leads 5-3.

I really hope the Tigers don't screw this game away after leading 3-0. The difference between 3rd and 4th place is huge. Go Tigers!

We STILL owe them for 2001. AND last year in Milwaukee! Bring it on, Hockey Least. WCHA Rules!!!

Two words, PCM: Bruce McLeod

If somebody knows the WCHA tiebreakers and in what order they go in, please post them. It could become very relevant for us in about 24 hours.

Sioux hang on for a 3-3 overtime tie. Lamoreaux gave us that tie with his save at the end of regulation. Gotta go for 3 out of 4 tomorrow night.

Penalty on Sioux. Now we'll be lucky to get one point.

1:32 and counting.

I HATE the shootout. The NHL had better not use the shootout in playoff games....ever!

Almost as ugly as his goaltending skills.

Come on, Sioux, let's get a goal and get out of here with a win.

Lamoreaux saves our butt as regulation time expires. We go to overtime, tied at 3. Biggest overtime of the season coming up.

I think they won it during the flood year (1997) and I think they won it again later on, but I am not sure what year it was.

DaveK, You have a lot of nerve talking about an "attitude of entitlement" from Grand Forks fans. Fargo South seems to have an attitude of entitlement in every sport. The Grand Forks schools (except for Central this year) are very good in hockey. Fargo schools are very good in football. Bismarck and Minot seem to have the best basketball in the state. Hockey has become much more competitive in North Dakota and that's good. It is not good for the sport to have one school win the title every year (Central won the first 13 state titles). There are more programs and more kids participating. And I am glad Fargo is finally starting to take hockey seriously by building a new arena complex. But I get sick and tired of Fargo South fans coming on this forum and talking like their hockey program is the greatest thing since sliced bread and that no one else is even close (I know I am paraphrasing, but that is the tone of the comments). South has won three state titles total (1994, 1999 and 2006) and finished runner-up several other times. Grand Forks Red River, by comparison (which opened around the same time as FSH), just finished winning their 13th State Championship. South has a long way to go to match the tradition of Grand Forks Red River (or Central for that matter). Yes, FSH has built a good program and they deserve credit for that. But that doesn't mean the sport revolves around FSH. I enjoy it when the Bruins lose and I am not sorry to admit it. End rant.

I believe that GFC won the 2005 State Football Championship over "The Best High School in North Dakota" and I think 39-29 was the final score. I have that game on videotape and I will never erase it. And it couldn't have happened to a better person than Mike Berg. The Knights were down in 2006, but I think they will be back in 2007. Red River is very competitive in tennis, volleyball and golf. Central has had some very good track teams and has had some good wrestling teams over the years. I think Central has also won State Championships in boy's soccer. Basketball has always been somewhat weak in Grand Forks for both schools; the West Region seems to dominate in both boys and girls (Mandan has won the last four state girls titles). But I remember the 1995 State boy's basketball title that GFC won over an unbeaten Minot team (led by Brooks Bollinger, among others). Red River also had some very good girls basketball teams in the early 1990's. Yes, South has a lot of good athletes and they work as hard as anyone else to win. My problem with FSH fans is that they think athletics in this state revolves around them and it's a tiresome attitude if you aren't a Bruins fan. It isn't an anti-Fargo thing (I have no problem with Fargo North, Fargo Shanley or West Fargo); it's this whole "We're the best High School in North Dakota" attitude. There are a lot of schools that have a lot of proud traditions in different sports (GFC and GFRR in hockey, Mandan in girls basketball, Fargo South in football, etc.). But you wouldn't know it by listening to Bruins fans. On Friday night, I was cheering for Grafton-PR against Fargo South. And I have never liked the Spoilers. Ever. That should tell you my feelings towards Fargo South High School. End rant.

A lot of fans of other schools across the state would disagree with that, especially when it comes to basketball.

Sioux get outshot 28-20, but win 3-0. Now, it's on to St. Cloud with third place still up for grabs.

I agree, so much for "The Best High School in North Dakota". Congrats to Red River, bringing the title back to Grand Forks where it belongs!

You shouldn't have "loafers" on a team this late in the season. That is troubling to me. Everything is on the line this weekend and next and we have to "light a fire" under someone? It's put up or shut up time for every team in this league and I don't want our boys to be quiet.

You are talking like our freshman class won't contribute at all. We have a good group of freshmen coming in next year and they probably will get better as the season goes on. Also, other teams in the league will lose underclassmen as well, even the "phenom-filled" Rodents. Listening to Wooger talk about how the Rodents might keep all their underclassmen for next year during the Sioux-Gopher series was laughable. Next year won't be as bad as you think. But enough about next year, we are still in it this year. Go Sioux!!!
