You don't have to be much of a detective to find out that the obstruction is holding the goal production down. Just look at how many goals JT is scoring in the NHL then look at this WCHA numbers. Toews has scored about the same number of goals in the NHL that he has in the WCHA. Obstruction. Toews only had three less goals in the NHL for about the same numbers of games. Here is Toews Blackhawk numbers 36games 15- 17-32 points Here is Toews Sioux numbers: 34 games 18-28-46 So are we to believe that the skill level is as high as the WCHA in the NHL. No, it is the fact that its hard to score when the refs don't call, hooking, holding and obstruction.

Now they are having tryouts in the middle of the season at Central.

Actually they should be going down after the beyond the pond show.

If I remember the movie Correcty Niedermeyer was a sneeky little S#!T and If I remember right shot by own troops in vietnam.

WEAR THE SWIFTS PLEASE!!!

2.) Last period of the UMN game in October. they played with desperation for like 20 minutes and 6:00 the second game in the third period.

Sometimes the flu can be pretty rough, my wife actually had to go to the emergency room and get an IV, maybe that is what happened to Miller, ussually if one is sick many can get sick.

You know what excites me is the desperation I have seen UND play with this season, the way they stole two games they had no business winning. That means that they aren't playing to their full potential. Plus they came close to stealing the other Minnesota game.I also don't believe that they have peaked yet as some have suggested. Plus UND plays better on the road. I have a theory on that but I am not going to bother with my theory now.

He would probably end up in the ECHL. Just my humble opinion, but I can't see him give JPar much of a fight right now.

I think UND has a good chance to win a lot of games if we only give up two goals. I was hoing Hak would give them one of those no pucks practice after Saturday's effort. That is what you call a stinker in my opinion.

I don't mean to be silly but the Goalie is like the third defenseman. I thought I saw UND playing a trap in Saturday's game in the third period.

Don't forget that 5 of the last 6 games UND has only given up 6 goals. 12 of 25 games UND has given up a goal or less in their games. That is pretty good defense.

I remember that on the PK he went up ice shot the puck, shot was blocked and he bet everyone back up the ice. Everyone needs to play like that. If the Sioux play like that UMN won't be in either game. If the Sioux loaf up and the ice it will be an fugly weekend.

YES it does.

I am pretty close to writing another letter to the league office. I am going to wait and see how this weekend goes. I had the misfortune to talk to both Sheppards both are very arogant (like father and son) and McCloud is an empty suit. I remember after MSU-M and UND played in the WCHA home series and Sheppard was going through the checkpoint of the GFK airport complaining about how he had to stay in this town one extra night in this crappy town (Grand Forks, ND) because the Sioux couldn't beat MSU-M in two games and I made the comment maybe the refs should have done a better job officiating.

Deal! Your also right, this happened in the professional ranks after the crack down as well, however, the players, coaches and teams eventually got the hint and learned to play the game without all the obstruction, hooking, holding and slashings.

Jim I actually think we are almost to the point of a fan revolt. I am seeing the fans upset with the way the league is officated. This is going to come to a head. The league has no credibility after all of the failures that have happened this season. I think it will change soon. I may also be a wide eyed optimist but I think it will change. The league has to or risk losing a lot of fed up players to the pros.

I did I saw the UAA boys snow out goalie about 6 times this weekend. I thought that was a penalty.

I will be happy with 2-3 points this weekend. I also want to see Bickel and Finley go toe to toe.

I am not seeing it either I am seeing a team that scored 3 goals two weekends in a row.

Think how many times we have seen Oshie, Duncan, Trupp hooked, slashed and held. I don't think that is accpetable. In the Denver Series Oshie was slashed right in front of the ref and he did nothing.

If they called all of the hookings and holding and you give UND 10-12 PP's we bury that team.

Under Blais if you play bad you sit next to the coaches on the bench or in the stands. I dunno, I feel like UND stole one. Lowest shot total in a game for 5 seasons.

Were holding you to that.

Nice post and there wouldn't be as much parity in the league if they called the games like the CCHA does.
