Oil hit a 6 year low yesterday. Yet, we're paying $.45 more per gallon than just a few weeks ago. Was there ever a justification for the swift rise from $1.99?

Not only that…the game was slated until 10:00, and they just switched to some "regularly scheduled" crap.

Screw MidCo for teasing the on-ice ceremony and then not even giving us a millisecond of live video.

Why so keen on defending Choke-aha's record? It happens that 10 is a perfectly round number that makes calculating percentages ridiculously easy. Do you honestly believe that OP deliberately did so at his 'convenience' merely to take a shot or to (gasp!) draw your ire?

Holy Lenten sacrifice! The fish tacos at Casa Mexico in EGF are pretty darn good.

Typo, or Freudian slip.

I think we should call out people for profiteering on here. It's tacky, and oh, by the way, violates the forum guidelines (the spirit, if not the letter).

Well, the only willing buyer here appears to have pegged it at $100. But if there isn't a willing seller, the world may never know.

I wasn't aware it was back on the market.

We could adopt the Star of David (Hakstol). It frequently starts out dim, looks great most of the astrological year, and fades out right at the end when everyone is watching, only to have the faithful looking skyward the very next night.

MARKET VALUE - "[T]he estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently, and without compulsion." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_value

The current weather forecast alone should knock about $50 off your selling price.

I saw the end of that link (_xl.jpg) and immediately wondered whether this was SFW.

Total diss from the national media. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/ncaa-hockey-101--reasons-to-be-skeptical-of-north-dakota-s-quality-011752215.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter I say, bring it.

Hypothetical: If UND clinches on Friday, do Zane and other starters sit on Saturday?

Fixed your post.

There are a lot of reasons why the students might be angry. The nickname. The cancellation of Springfest. The extended hours at the student union and library. Dorm food. The weather. Taxes. The proliferation of ISIS. The list goes on and on...

Love 'em or hate 'em, shootouts matter. Omaha has picked up the equivalent of a win by going 3-for-3, while Duluth has lost an entire game in the standings by going 0-for-3. In the crazy NCHC, this could be the difference between home ice for the first round and hitting the road.

Good catch. Although I suspect they have oodles of wiggle room on that point, too. Will be interesting to hear the whole story (i.e., from the ousted students), if it ever comes out.

Lots of room for subjectivity on the part of the venue here, unfortunately.

If ya gotta ditch in the ocean, couldn't pick a better spot than alongside a cruise ship. Poor Tom Hanks had to endure his ride to salvation aboard a freighter.

Great find! I think it would be interesting if they expanded the study to include ice sheet availability (we just opened two top-flite rinks at ICON) and youth hockey participation per capita.

You can usually get a free change if an involuntary rescheduling by the airline doesn't work for you. Might be worth a look.
