Goon

Burn it, Burn it. Fire, Fire, Fire... Make sure to burn it in the back yard. Great win tonight. Show a lot of character and heart. This win should give the lads some confidence for tomorrow. With the win in O.T. UND now is tied with MSU-M for 10th in the PWR rankings. Way to go boys...

I will have to agree with that statement. Hey just another possitive. UND is still 11th in the PWR ranking but dont' anyone tell so UND will come out firing on all cylinders.

I dont want it to end like this either... Very depressing and the off season is way too long. Lets Go Sioux, Lets Go Sioux...

What was interesting is there is a break away and the Denver player just jumps off the bench and breaks up the call in front of the refs and 10,000 people. I have never seen that play before. Should have been a penalty.

I went to the game with my wife last night and Frankly it was depressing, there were some good things to come out of the game. Fylling got his 6 point in 3 games, any points anyone gets right now is a bonus. So that is a plus. Matt Greene went another game without taking a bunch of penalities... Good for him. Matt played a pretty good game and will only get better as he gets more ice time. I still want him to pop someone. Maybe tonight. I think I am about ready to give up on UND much like I think the players have themselves, it is apparent by the way they are playing on the ice, they went through the motions. If they don't win this weekend they might not get into the NCAA tourney. Some will say that the players were being held, all night long from the drop of the first puck it was ugly. The other team did a lot of holding and it worked, I wish the refs would call that stuff. They are going to have to fight through it. Or the season is done. Denver University makes hockey an awesome sport look ugly. That aint hockey. The minute Bochenski realized that he was going to have a tough night his feet stop moving. Granted its hard to skate when you are being tackled...

Actually just to add to that point, the announcer (my wife and I could tell if they were slambing him or giving him a compliment) that he was leading the team in scoring making 600,000.00 a year and Alexi Yashin was behind him in the points and making millions of dollars. Actually Blake got 3 points last night (thursday night). I cant remember who they were playing, I want to say Edmonton.

But really I think it has been loud in the ralph this season. Two Sundays ago the fans were up after UND score the goal to get even with UMD...

FYI Bayda got an assit tonight on Carolina's only goal of the evening. That makes 8 assists for the the Young forward and ll points. This NHL center ice is awesome, I recommend to anyone buy it if you like NHL hockey. The last few nights I got to watch Blake play against Vancover, Murray Barron was on the Vancover team. Eddie Belfour with the Leafs and Greg Johnson with Nashville. Add to the mix that the WCHA and the NCAA is becoming more and more represented in the NHL Anson Carter from MSU, Leo, Jeff "After the Wistle" Taffe (just called back up with PHX) and Rassumsen from Minnesota, Mike Grier and Chris Drury (sp) from BU, Brendan Morrison from Michigan just to name a few.

Here is the latest. Althought this web page has little or no credibility, I think it would be fun to watch UND beat UofM in the Region final. It would be a hoot. I don't think North Dakota would have much trouble with Ferris State setting up the game... PROVIDENCE East Regional 1. New Hampshire 2. Boston College 3. MSU, Mankato 4. Mercyhurst WORCESTER Northeast Regional 1. Cornell 2. Boston University 3. Ohio State 4. St. Cloud State ANN ARBOR Midwest Regional 1. Colorado College 2. Michigan 3. Maine 4. Ala.-Huntsville MINNEAPOLIS West Regional 1. Minnesota 2. Ferris State 3. North Dakota 4. Harvard

Probably will be on Channel 23 on Midco net...

A lot of things would hav to happen for ED to be elected to Governor, all the other Democratic candidates would have to say they don't want the job, I am sure Heidi is going to make another run. I say bring it on Eddy. I just don't see it happening. First off Ed has a lot of Baggage that would come up. The guy changes his stripes when ever it suit his purpose. Second I think he is very polerizing.

Tech and Wisconsin advancing is a nice scenario butI Just don't see how it could happen unless the Mankato and Minnesota teams had half of their players suspended.

There is no way hell that Wisconsin beats MSU-M. Its a nice senario, and nothing would be sweeter but it is not in the cards, Wisconsin cant even cycle the puck to get it out of their own end. How the heck are they going to beat MSU-Mankato. People are dreaming in saying that Wisconsin beats Mankato. Just my opinion. I wouldn't be surprise if Eaves isn't shown the door soon...

Yeah your right. Lets see there was Mankato, Denver and I believe Duluth too.

Brad's goal was pretty nice too, he put a great move on the goalie and burried the bisket. Bayda just set up a goal with a nice assist. UND is being well represented tonight.

Some Rube called into PA and Dubay today to say that Michigan Tech takes Minnesota to three games. Yikes. They must be in the paint thinner up in Houghton, Michigan...

Sounds like all star wrestlingm XFL and the NFL wrapped into one.

Since the X-mas tourney (referred to as the Cup Cake Classic by some) UND record is 6-8-4, sure sub par, but really not that bad considering the number of games on the road, in tough places. UND is still 11 in the PWR ranking so I think UND will be in the NCAA tourney if they don't go out and lose more than two games this weekends series. Bubble teams. Rk Team 9 Michigan 36 24- 9- 3 0.7083 MSU-Mankato 36 18- 8-10 0.6389 11 North Dakota 38 24- 9- 5 0.6974 12 St. Cloud State 34 16-13- 5 0.5441 Ohio State 37 22-10- 5 0.6622 14 Harvard 29 19- 8- 2 0.6897 Providence 36 19-14- 3 0.5694 16 Denver 38 20-12- 6 0.6053 Michigan State 36 21-13- 2 0.6111 Dartmouth 29 17-11- 1 0.6034 Northern Michigan 36 18-16- 2 0.5278

Coming back for a sqirt game with Hopper I said that Blaiser must have read the Siouxsports.com because we were both kind of shocked to know Marc was playing after (Dr. Hook/Mike Keenan) Blais pulled him the night before. I commend Blais for giving Marc a second chance. I think it will do wonders for a goalies confidence.

Believe it or not UND goals against is 4th in the league overall, middle of the road, I believe that our goals against is like maybe one or two goals behind the Dirty Gophers. That is puzzling since I remember some Gopher fans lecturing me on how much better their goaltending was.

I hate to lecuture anyone about spelling, yesh, however, Marc's name is Ranfranz. We don't have a player on our team with the name Renfranz... I am sure Blais will keep us guessing all week.

Sioux Fan In Boston, B's Win in overtime, whew. Thank God for NHL Center Ice. Best 100.00 bucks I ever spent. Zach would sure look good with a spoked B on his uni... Hopefully after 3-4 years.

Being a long time Bruins fan I am also very happy that the Rangers (Rags) aren't doing well. I think its funny that they continue to spend money on free agents and continue to camp out at the bottom of the standing.
