  1. The wording in the agreement is poorly written and one reasonably could interpret it the way you did. I initially interpreted it that way too when I first read the agreement. However, it appears that the NCAA is just fine with UND not having a nickname because it has officially removed UND from the sanctions list and has said UND is in compliane with the policy. Thus, I believe having no nickname is an option. Having said that, I think it is highly likely that the University will move forward with naming a new nickname once it is able to do so under the statute.

    And lets see how many people buy that jersey, I sure as hell am not!!

  2. When did you grow up watching Sioux hockey? It took them 10 years to win a banner after the Circus left town. Don't even get me started on the teams from the late 80s/early 90s. Some of those teams had more offensive firepower than UND has ever had, with G Johnson, Dixon Ward, Russ R and others, yet they couldn't make it into the tourney some years. The '97 team got lucky that BU took down the prohibitive favorite. The '98 and '99 teams were supposed to win it all, but the coaching must not have been good enough, or the teams did not want it bad enough, or the fans just didn't care enough, because they just choked it up, at least in your mind. As for UND's ancient "glorious past," how many banners did they win between the time Kennedy was elected and 1980? What a pathetic program.

    Do you go to the games because you love the game, or are you just looking for someone else to accomplish something that will give you some second-hand validation you are lacking in other areas of your life? You are mistaking childishness for pride.

    The sioux have to win the ncaa this year, sense the first time they won it they havnt gone more then 13 years sense wining it!

  3. And that was the story of the game; the holding and stick take downs were so blatant that they went way beyond the old hooking/holding/interference that used to be allowed. There had to be double digit scoring chances eliminated by blatant uncalled penalties. Bemidji can beat or tie MN if they are allowed to do that next weekend, otherwise they will get blown out.

    Surprised I haven't seen the sure goal Parks wraparound mentioned, when Walsh went outside the net, and ended up below the goal line on the wrong side of the net. Couldn't figure out how the net came off before Parks could score, but the replay showed that Walsh backed into it and knocked it off, it was more subtle than most of the holding and takedowns, but eliminated a goal nonetheless.

    Can't blame the team for this one (can't even imagine how the effort from beginning to end is questioned :sad: ), they played hard and well. Wish they would have done one thing, when Bemidji had their long possession in the Sioux end, in the third and OT, wish the Sioux would have held/taken down Bemidji players to regain the puck (Bemidji did this constantly with no calls), maybe then the whistles would have been used. Now lets see two more games get called like this next weekend, both at Bemidji (but I bet it won't, and the Gophers will, and should, get more than 5 PP's if Bemidji resorts to holding and take downs). I certainly don't want to see it again in a Sioux game.

    I'd like to see Bemidji again, with the game called like most are; doesn't look like that will happen however, best chance is Mich. Tech, followed by a Thursday game in St. Paul. Although major shifts will likely happen again next weekend, it too close not to.

    Sh*tbreath and Toad Anderson can F*ck off!!! I'm sure that stuff will fly at the goofer game:/

  4. In the final box score it seems like Gleason gets the goal on the assist from Kristo and Knight (first point for Kristo against BSU).

    Looked like Rocco got the tip, but I guess he said he didn't touch it.

    Rocco did tip that in, I have season tickets in the upper level, first section to the right of the general admission seats, saw just fine Rocco tiped it but I think he was trying to get Kristo his point, shows what kind of team mate and player he is!!

  5. Are you openly advocating for a DU player to intentionally hurt Rau this weekend? Or am I just misunderstanding your post?

    I'm taking that as him meaning teaching Rau a lesson but not hurting bad enough to where he can't physically play hockey, my opinion

  6. I noticed that the NCHC posted this on FaceBook, anybody know what it could be? A new tv deal? New additions?i

    "Lots of exciting things happen at the office...can't share just yet but I think you all will be pleased! :-)"
