Yeah then we would score a ton of goals then. I suspect UND will eventually break through on the power play something where UND goes 4/6 on the power play. You heard it here first... I could see it happening in the future...

I think that is a stretch, I think UMD is a possible Final Five participant and possible NCAA tourney bid but not a Frozen Four team. UMD's goaltending has been suspect as of late, I would put SCSU ahead of them.

Relax all UND needs it a couple of ties or a sweep at UMD. Looking at the Dogz I really don't think they are a top team in the WCHA, just my HMO. Besides this is a UND site and I could care less about the BLOW Dogz...

Not over looking the Dogz but maybe an oversite but I don't think UND is fearing the goaltending from UMD like they once did. So far UND has owned the Dogz this season.

Jake Taylor and some BU player #23 just got a pentalties for roughing, getting Nasty in Gooferville. Now the Gophers are are going to get a 5-3 advantage... looks like Adam is trying get the Gophers back in the game. UofM has not looked very good this weekend.

2-1 Sioux, lets go, lets finish strong...

Ah shucks, BU looks to be playing pretty well for being a middle of the pack team. UNH losing again.

Well he is playing for an organization that isn't very good. 5000 fans for a hockey game are you kidding me? I am sure the people in South Florida don't appreciate hockey like us folks up north.

Actually I think the USA is the favorite according to the media.

Through all of this it sounds like Brandt is playing really well. Nice to see after Jake has two kind of rough games.

Thats what I thought, 3-2 BU still leading the Goofers...

Isn't this the same Anderson that called a ton of penalties against UND when they played B.C., wasn't it something like 18 penalties.

Yep 3-1 with BU on the power play, I am surely enjoying the game.

Sounds like the game is getting out of control, a lot of after the wistle stuff from SCSU. I am sick and tired of SCCC antics.

But isn't that game on like at 7:30 am in to morning or dies anyone know if it is later. I remember last couple of games that were on NHL center ice were really early like 0730 or 0800 am.

I want to have a picture of that...

You won't see it happen because the WCHA is all about the Gophers and the Badgers. I find it odd that every season the Gophers schedule is alway to their liking and they get to finish with their SCSU series and get to have a well rounded schedule. This is three years in a row that UND has had a sucky schedule. You can almost bet the league was/is sweating that the Gophers are at the bottom of the league and in jepoardy of not making the WCHA final five. Its all about the Gophers you know. Someone had a stat posted on USCHO a week or two ago that basically stated that UND Schedule is a little lighter the rest of the way.

Some fans assume that UND's record is only good because we haven't played any games on the road. UND hasn't even really played any patsy yet either until the last weekend. Not to mention that UND man handled DU at their place and they aren't bad. I think that is flawed logic since some of the teams arenas we are going to go aren't exactly world beaters. MTU. MSU-M, UMD. We get DU at home, and C.C. at home as well as UAA and MTU. The tough series on the road are going to be Wisconsin and UofM. We should at least split both of these series.

*Gasp* Another Canadian at UofM...

I think it is funny that everyone seems to think that UND is going to come crashing down to earth in the second half but I don't see it happen. I think UND is way more talented of a team then they were last season. Here is a few reasons, three players Porter, Murray, Stafford, I think arugably the best recruting class in the country at the turn. I am going on record to say that this is not going to happen. UND will be a top two team. I beg anyone to tell who is going to be there instead.

Going back to the title to start this thread off I don't believe this series determines who the best team is. I think the logic is false since we are with out our three top players... I think this weekend is nothing more than just another two games series.

I like your thinking I say add them to the total. Maybe we put an * next to it. I think they are going to have to get going if they are going to score 100 goals. Of course UND gets to play MTU four times and UAA. So maybe they can do it.

Watched the Czech and Cancuck game on TSN this morning (NHL center ice) Canada is good by the way so it should shake out to be a USA and Canada final. That will be on TSN. During the first and Second period TSN (Canada's version of ESPN) announcers were all talking about how good Zach Parise and praising NJ for drafting Zach also it has been not that Zach is leading the tourney with 5 goals.

Sprig are we playing the Canadians in the WJC?
