Goon

The bar in question I by the restaraunt they call Chipolte or something like that. Beware though the bar was full of Rodent fans.

Actually TH was talking about this last year and I think that last year was supposed to be the last year this was going to happen. However, if the Goofers get into the thursday game and win and UND was the number one seed then this would mute point anyways wouldn't it.

Oh great the Bulls eye known as the number one ranking is back on the Sioux again.

Its the battle of the mutts and cows this weekend. MSU-M plays UNO. I predict to 0-0 ties.

MTU would have to get points this weekend If I am not mistaken to have any chance of not returning to Grand Forks the weekend after for the WCHA playoffs.

Actually we found a great bar close to the X-Cel Energy Center last season that was a lot of fun I can't remember the name but they had an outside terrace and they served an awesome pizza. Maybe a Gopher fan can remind me what the name of the Bar was. The beer wasn't too expensive either.

Heck you can't afford to drink to many at the Ralph. Same with the X-cel Energy center. Must drink a few before the game.

Being the defending champs sometimes makes the season after easier to stomach. I would love to have the UND Fighting Sioux be defending next season. Then we are going to be assured of getting each teams best effort. Yikes.

I hope coach Blais just give the ball to Jake and lets him do his thing. Playing Brandt has proved to be sucessful and if I was the coach I would not mess with sucess.

Does that mean we win the Minnesota Cup?

It would be interesting to know who the five that said it doesn't matter. I would bet them might be fans of opposing teams.

Jake has played well going down the stretch. I think UND has two strong goaltenders to back stop a run to the WCHA Regulars Season Title, A WCHA Final Five and hopefully a NCAA title.

Watch who you call old. LOL

One word, Whew. What a season of hockey in the NCAA.

Wow, order up some humble pie. Three admit to eating crow. I actually didn't feel the sweep in Wisconsin was that big of a deal. If UND wins one game this weekend they get a least a share of the league title. I could see UofW taking at least one point this weekend.

Nah I don't think so. Anytime the Rodents get swept its ground for celebration.

I wouldn't count on that happening, after watching the last period of Saturdays game, UofM is in a hurt bag right now. That would assuming that the Gopher get past their first round opponent which might end up being Denver, which now holds the tie breaker with the Gophers. Although it would be fun watching the Sioux whoop on the Goofers.

I think your right Phoneix, I am not so sure that F-Bombs are protected under the 1st amendment.

UofM is 1-8-1 against legit playoff teams from the WCHA this season. Ouch.

Of course he will say something stupid, Jeff will probably go on and on about how Dultuh is still the team to beat and UND got lucky and that they have suspect goaltending, blah, blah, blah... I am now waiting for him to say something stupid like Tech will come into the Ralph and sweep. If UND plays it game they will get the winner of the play-in game. I don't know about anyone else but I am fired up. I suppose it might be the Limon and Tonics but tongiht was a great character win.

PCM that beautiful. I wonder what Jeff Dubay will have to say, I am sure he will come up with something stupid to say on Monday on why UMD was swept and the Goofers got swept.

DU leading 6-3, JJ really sucks. I smell goalie problems to the south of us.

Here are the present PWR numbers. UND is back in first after a sweep of UMD. Its amazing that the WCHA could have 6 to 7 team in the NCAA. I am hoping for 6, 7 could be a stretch because of the two auto bid in the lesser leagues. 1 North Dakota 26 2 24-6-3 .7727 1 .6201 2 Boston College 25 1 26-4-4 .8235 2 .6106 3 Maine 24 3 24-7-3 .7500 3 .5798 4 Minnesota-Duluth 23 6 22-10-3 .6714 4 .5760 5 Michigan 22 5 23-10-1 .6912 5 .5714 6 Minnesota 20 12 20-12-3 .6143 6 .5652 7 New Hampshire 19 14 18-11-5 .6029 8 .5533 8 Wisconsin 18 7t 19-9-7 .6429 7 .5565 9 Ohio State 16 17t 20-14-0 .5882 9 .5500 Denver 16 7t 20-10-5 .6429 11 .5406 Miami 16 11 19-11-4 .6176 13 .5402 12 Notre Dame 15 16 17-11-4 .5938 12 .5405 13 St. Cloud State 14 17t 18-12-4 .5882 10 .5431 Colgate 14 9 19-10-5 .6324 19 .5212 15 Michigan State 13 22 20-15-1 .5694 17 .5298 16 Colorado College 12 20t 18-13-3 .5735 14 .5356

I am not sure he is sitting in his kennel right now.

DU just scored now DU 5- UofM 3. I feel the wheels coming off. Oh yeah I am smiling too.
