Good post, I think what Mike did was classic Prpich. I expect nothing more from him. Mike is not going to go down as one of the cleanest players in UND history, but there are other that have been worse. I am trying to name a few but I am drawing a blank. I think Marty Schriner is one that comes to mind.

I think we could have a good chance of getting him since UND have had a few other Marvins in the mix. Maybe Eades will have a hand in this too.

I gather that the game will be on channel 23 again tonight at 807 pm. That is what the Herald said today.

Smaby smashed Carle yesterday, and cleanly I might add, Matt Carle was shaking the cob webs out of his head.

RedWing take a deep breath, this is a college hockey game, which is a contact sport with brutal hits. Are you going to police the whole message board and tell people that we can't chear a good hard hit or a retalitory hit on a @$$hole hockey player that takes liberties up and down the ice on mostly smaller skilled players, I have yet to see him go up against a bigger player like Smaby or Finley for that matter. For god sakes, your being a little over reactional, let some of us enjoy the moment, I thought it was funny. I don't think any of us have overlooked the goal at hand winning the hockey game, but none of us are playing in this game. Due to the fact that none of us are playing, I don't see why we can't chear that idiot getting hit hard or pounded into the ice like someone said it is not mutually exclusive. I don't think anyone here is saying we would take Jeff Paukovich laying on the ice maimed or hurt for a NCAA tourney berth. Hockey is a contact sport and don't think for a minute if the time comes the UND players will end this thing right or wrong, that is not for any of us to decided, thats up to the Fighting Sioux hockey players. Its ok to disagree on that but please don't get on your high horse and tell people how it is we are suppose to feel and think. That being said I enjoyed the game last night and watching UND wipe that silly smirk off of the DU hockey players faces. I loved watching each goal go past Manino and watching Fisher sulk on the bench. Classic. I loved watching Gwoz snap on the bench and get told to leave the game. Classic. I also remember me saying this somewhere too:

You might need to explain yourself a little better since I was applading the Sioux winning last night and I also said it was the first concern for UND. Your logic is flawed because none of us want to endure a another Paukovich cheap shot like the one on TJ Oshie, another player might end up in the hospitial. Notice all of the players Punkovich hits are smaller players not anyone like Smaby or Finely, the kid is a gultess punk and as long as he plays in this league UND fans will be concerned every time he hits the ice. Also, fans can lose focus because we are not playing the hockey game. Ohhh, your a good fan because your in focus. Focus for what. Some people can't even see the ice because they are so drunk. So by Prpich sticking that piece of $#!t in the nuts last night probably did more good than bad. It reminded Punkovich that we are still out there and makes him think twice about cheaping another Sioux player. Hockey is a game of intimidation and if you disagree with that statement you have your head in the sand. Smaby's hit on Carle last night was a perfect illustration of that.

Thats fricken hilarious.

I think for a little guy Prp is just mean and nasty and I think that is a good quality to have and it adds the edge to the game that makes people think twice about going into the corner with him. I think Punkovich is going to think twice next time he faces off against any of the Sioux.

I would call it a cup check. Mike just want to make sure Punkovich was wearing his cup. Apparently it still hurts quite a bit even when your wearing one.

UND is 9-1-1 in the last ten games in Denver's arena. I hope UND can make that 10 in twelve games tomorrow night.

George snapped tonight, standing on the dasher and yapping at the officials. I can't wait to read the Denver Post tomorrow, it should prove to be some good reading.

Things look good tonight, the Fighting Sioux needs to win tomorrow night. Things should shake out the next couple of weeks.

Potetic justice. Irony. I was watching the game with a buddy and we got a good chuckle out of it. If Prp would have did that to another player it probably would have been a 5 minute major, but the officals called it appropriately in my opinion.

How do you sleep after eating that?

I would bet that the above poster ATLSioux didn't play hockey either. If I had been a player I would have spent a lot of time in the box myself.

I would love to see a sweep of the Pios this weekend.

I think we should at least expect our players to play the game and really not focus on that Punk unless he commits more aggregious acts of violence. That being said we don't really want our team to come off as a bunch of classless thugs like Punkovich. Were not in the playoffs as of yet so I hate to say it that maybe our boys will take the high road and play the game.

Right now the weather is so poor, its snowing again and its going to be a long day of shoveling and snow blowing, I have to go walk the dog before it gets too deep.

That is sweet because I will not have to watch the game on saturday on delayed telecast. Very nice to see. I suppose we are going to be stuck with Denver's homer announcers though. Or do we get our two rubes. I actually listened to them last week and they weren't that bad.

FCS (you have to have the extended sports package on Midco) on the like 316 at 835 pm tomorrow night.

Now that is funny.

Me thinks this might be a troll or skippy and might need to post an alert, UND is very much alive in the NCAA picture. I think after the CCHA playoffs UND will definately move up in the RPI and PWR rankings.
