I think that statement pretty much sums it up. WIN

What is your knowledge about Sprint Cars and Late Models? It wouldn't be hard to defile the Baseball world and Childress gives us a lot to groan about.

We would have to suspend it for the summer. I like the Racing Idea but a lot of people don't.

Only Sid publishes the rumors, sometimes I think he makes them up himself and prints them. I think PCM is better reporter and a better read, for one he isn't a babbling 80+ year old man and his stuff is usually taken as fact, or at least he has me fooled. Of course the calamity of it all is Sid gets paid will PCM is only a Pseudo reporter (I don't think I spelled that one right). I do like that idea though; it would be cool to have a Sunday morning talk show talking only about sports, (Sioux football, hockey and how bad the Vikes suck). I think it would be fun to listen too, then PCM could call people geniuses and hang up on them just like Sid. It would be fun as hell.

Here is something for you guys to consider: Hakstol has a record of 63-42-7 for his career, its not too bad if you throw out this season, however against the top teams in the WCHA he has gone 13-23-1 that is about a .360 winning percentage. Breaking it down that coaching record, thats 2-6 against Denver, 3-6 against C.C., 4-4 against Minnesota, 4-7-1 against Wisconsin, that means he has a 50-19-6 record against the rest of the teams he has played.

BSU may try to get into the WCHA but I am sure it would have to be with another team so you would have at least 12 teams. I would hope someone like UNO would come to the WCHA.

We will be holding you to that prediction.

On the same network a former twin let one slip out and ended getting suspended. Yikes

Thriple header on CBC. There is the Badger and Denver game on FCS or FSN Rocky Mountain. Gophers play tomorrow with their full squad.

I have been reading the Fargo Forum and it appears from what I have read no-one is interested in NCAA hockey down there. They have been discussing a arena and that was met with no success. Unless there is something behind the scenes. I sit with people from Fargo (NDSU grad that loves Sioux hockey) and they are convinced that Hockey is a dead issue down there too. Its almost like Blais is out there resurfacing and looking for a job. Its probably going to take 100,000 to sign him.

Actually some of the other channels like TNT don't always bleep out the profanity late at night. I think there is a rule about what can be said at what time.

Actually Slap Shot I was giving your team credit. I just can't believe everyone was worried that the Gophers wouldn't win last night, I just think a few were selling your team short. Seriously.

They must not have an FCC to regulate TV in Canada. I know in the USA they have the seven second delay to be able to edit out swear words. Classic...

That was a nice post. I agree with your assessment.

The Home town heros from Grand Forks are going to be all over you for that statement. I will cross my fingers and pray for you. I have to agree Lammy is way too emotional for a goal tender, you can do that kind of BU!!S#!T. The chopping of the puck with his goal stick after a routine save kills me too. Phil did that a few times last weekend. All the top goaltenders in college and pro keep their emotions in tack. There are few that come to mind Hextal, Billy Smith and Belfoure but both of them are actually good and could get away with it. My only question is why was Grieco sitting in the stands last night will Walski was on the bench. I hope Hak is going to throw Grieco under the bus already.

One little f-bomb. I wonder if they bleeped it out on TSN for the broad cast or did this go over the air?

I would be happy with 6th place because it is better than 8th place, where the Sioux currenly sit. UND is about only 3 points out of home ice. The Sioux, however, havent won in 7 or 8 league games and have a very tough schedule ahead of them. The heat will be on Hakstal reguardless of what people think on SiouxSports.com. This could be only the second time in 10 season UND hasn't been to the NCAA tourney.

For the sake of argument, like others have said there is substantial grumbling for UND not going out and having a national search for a coach after Blais left, I know because I have heard it a lot, I live in Grand Forks. There are a good number of people that want Steve Johnson, there are a good number that want anyone but Hakstol. I think Perfect argument for looking for a coach nationally is look at what has happened at Notre Dame and they went out and got a top line coach in Jeff Jackson, the same coach that took a small school like LSSU to the national title and won. Now not surprisingly Notre Dame is winning. UND could have had a coach like that. I don't care if this becomes or turns into a Nick Sabin type enviornment, UND deserves the best. I just saying if Hak has anymore season's like this the powers to be at UND will show him the door reguardless if his father-in-law is Tim Okeefe or not. Whislter brought up a point, he will watch them as long as they are competative I have watched every year since I transfered over to BSU. I remember sitting in empty stadiums while the team sucked. This team isn't far from being that bad again. We will be lucky to finish 6th.

Lefty I am not looking to pick a fight with you but how many more games do we have to watch before we realize this season is a lost season. I have no confidence in the present situation. There is something wrong with this team. Look at the WJC players and you can figure it out. There is no reason Jonathon Toews should be scoring goals and not in the WCHA. I am not sure why people should think you have to suppport this team no matter what happens without any criticizism. This is a Horse Bleep hockey team, there are players not producing its the job of the coaching staff. I am sick and tired of listening to excuses.

I would bet if Blais were coaching one of the last two teams to the NCAA Frozen Four he would have won a title with the talent the Sioux had. As Sioux fans we know that the patience with Hak will not be very long. If you listen to him in his post game speech he is getting desperate, you can hear it in his voice. I can't believe with Eades as one of the coaches we don't have more intensity? Maybe the school should look at getting Blais back. Dean is going to be out there and you can see him basically saying here I am, I available.

Make that the Sioux must Sweep BSU (losing is unacceptable). Must get points from Denver (something Hak's teams have not done) The problem is the Sioux aren't getting it done and frankly this team doesn't have it. Hakstol needs to be held accountable for this season. The Gophers lose just as much talent as the Sioux and they are running away with the division title. Hakstol fails to make the proper adjustments after losing players in the off season. While I am not ready to call for his head yet, its apparent he might not be the right coach for UND.

Slap Shot, the FSN boys are the propaganda machine of the Golden Gophers it was amazing to see how they spun this game. That being said even without the 5 guys that were gone to the WJC you would still win at least 3/4 of your games. So I think its silly to think other wise. Most teams aren't even lucky enough to have a Jay Barbell.

I am thinking they are going to start losing eventually...

If there was a time to get rolling it would probably be a good time to start tomorrown night. The bright side is UND didn't give up a power play goal and they got a solid defensive effort. Thats the Silver Lining.

We can't get a break, no finisher. Actually this was a top effort. We can't afford to lose tomorrow night or it could be bad for the Sioux.
