Those faceoffs will be huge! Our PK will need to be in good form for this run.

You got that right - that extra coat of paint on that end really made a difference! LOL at the people hating on the Wild because of the broadcast team or former goofs on the roster As someone who never watches a goofs game (that isn't against UND), I only know Lapanta as the Twins and Wild announcer, so that problem is solved. As for the goofs players, the Wild seem to be collecting them, but just like when I told that onetime Pio, Zucker, that I was glad to finally be able to cheer for him, I'm trying to look past the poor college choices made by some of Parise's teammates.

Surgery could be a good thing? Look how quickly he came back after his wrist surgery earlier this season. At the very least, I hope there will be a treatment plan and timetable.

They dropped the word "Fighting" from the name. Also, I've heard that the tribe is extinct, or at least no longer an organized/recognized group, thus no one had to approve of the name, but that could be bad info flowing in...

Just put the ND on them. The "new logo" plates won't be too popular, I'm afraid

Their band was fun - during the championship game, they were probably more interesting than the game itself.

Wow, that's bad! I'm still not sure how I feel about that dance competition. According to some people who were there, the winning team basically admitted they stole big pieces of the routine, but I'm not sure I'm on board with the girls that didn't accept their medals. I get they felt they had to do something, but I'm not sure they did the right thing... Then again, I have no better suggestion for them beyond the formal protest that was turned down.

That GPA news is awesome! Yeah! For all the GD Bison plates I have to see, where are those UND plates??

It was in the third - we had a great view of all of it from across the rink. After the sign was rolled/crumbled up, several students exited with security staff. I called bullsh;t then, but did not notice if any returned. People on here saying only one student was thrown out makes me believe there was more to his particular story.

This may have been a result of the "meeting in the office"? We saw multiple students leave, so if only one of them was actually kicked out, one could be led to believe that student did/said something to escalate his consequence. If it was just that he brought the banner, then that's not deserved. If he became belligerent, or threw a temper tantrum, that'd be a different story...

There's just short of 4 weeks until a game that could end a season. Hopefully Mac can heal by then.

I'm going to agree with the 4-2 win. I think the juniors come out with crazy levels of energy, and seniors finish off the scoring opportunities. Lock down Johnny B, and off we go!

Gotta get a win in Nashville! Calgary won last night and jumped ahead of MN in the wildcard. If you want to make the playoffs, you have to get some points on the road, even against good teams.

Actually still just paved on the south side. West is still gravel, which can be fine, or a mud hole depending on weather. West side was never paved due to the expansion sheets that were to be added. Now, finally, one sheet is going to be... During the Force season Bulldog Tap runs a shuttle bus, but I expect a few more places to do it for the regional.

It's also mutated a bit over the last year or two to be "the best of the best" kind of a statement. Girl Scout cookies are the best, but Thin Mints are the best of the best -

I watched the 30 for 30 on Saturday morning. Very interesting stuff, as everyone has said. Rumor is you can track down the Red Army on youtube if you dig deep enough, but I have not had the chance to confirm this. I suppose it could have been up, then taken down as pirated, as well.

Sioux finish the sweep 4-2, finally hitting that empty net to secure it!

4-1 Sioux win. Luke gets a goal and our D picks up 3 or 4 points tonight, at a minimum.

Math brain in overdrive this morning. Read at your own risk: Reserve tickets for the schools had to be held at even numbers. Pre-season, we weren't guaranteed to make the tourney (see last year's final night drama), so, at 500 per school, 2,000 tickets still will be put up for sale. Since we now know our boys are getting in, that's 500 more Sioux fans. We're up to 3,500 out of 5,000 (est), or 70%, before the other teams' returns even start. Even if each other school uses 1/2, that's 750 more available. If all 750 go to Sioux fans, 4,250 out of 5,000, or 85% will be cheering for one team. Might be a small home ice advantage...

Pretty much guaranteed

Finish this! 4-1 Sioux

I feel for the coach and the entire family. I hope our boys are ready tonight from the drop of the puck, as I would expect DU to play inspired for their coach.

I'm almost giddy at this get - with all the graduates this year, I love this reload

I pretty much agree with this list, but I'm not sure Wisconsin doesn't take the 4th slot - I guess that depends on the season.

oooww, I like this! While I kinda see the point of the first round on campus, I've never been a big fan of it. I'm ready for the playoffs at that point, but first, here's another full weekend...
