I love hockey and the NHL (I might watch the T-Wolves on occasion but that's about the extent for the most part), believe me, but that's why it will forever in the U.S. stay #4 of the four major league sports, bush league/WWF stuff like that and maybe at worst a slap on the wrist.
-
I'm guessing cus the sign said fire Kelly, not that I agree the student(s) should be removed for that. Doesn't that kind of go against what college is about (open discussion, dialogue,...)?
-
Agree, curious indeed. Thur night he came in and put up I believe a quick 6 pts, scoring inside and medium/outside range. Looked sharp. Then he leaves and believe he never got back in at all for the 2nd half. Today he didn't see many minutes at all. Jones' substitutions really baffles me sometimes.
-
You know, I try to stay off the refs but parrot face Anderson I swear has it in for the Sioux. I realize one or two games doesn't prove much but you watch his calls here over a season or two and it's damn near blatant, it's a joke.
-
You know, I'm as liberated as any 50+ male can be. Over the many years I go to lady Sioux hoops games, love it. I coach youth girls soccer and watch the women's US team whenever I can. However, I've been to like 3 lady Sioux hockey games over the last decade (last game I went to was vs Min last year, big crowd) and I'm not sure I'll go again. While I follow them on-line and in the paper (great 2nd half surge this year) I just don't get into it. You know why? Hockey excites me cus it's BOTH fast AND physical (men's) but for some reason they don't allow checking (okay, I know they bump each other a bit) in women's hockey. Why not? It's women against women? Whenever I see a play near the boards I'm expecting a check and then nothing. I wish I could like it cus I like watching sport but not touch hockey.

Leaving in about 15 min. Hopefully can pull out a rare home conf win (this season) to make the day a bit better for the seniors.
-
And he's coaching like a dead horse, not that I would beat him.

Tim and Swyg are on 1440 AM each weekday morning like 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.

While Brewster's team may be "underachieving", it's not by chance that term was selectively used (such as mediocre or poor, such as you could describe one team's season) to describe the women's teams season to date. Yes, the women's bar was much higher than the men's team coming in this season. The women hhowever, unlike the men's team, are still a good BSC team and should still make the BSC tourney and have that shot at making the dance. The men meanwhile won't even make the conf tourney so no shot at all.

Economics, politics, etc. aside, that was my thought too. I ain't got a ticket.
-
I hear you runaroundsioux and you make a point but my griping is purely selfish; I wanted to go but cus you're talking just a 5k seat arena I wasn't able to get a ticket (I was on line a 1/2 hour after sales opened but no tickets left). In 06 (?) I got tickets for it at the Ralph cus you had an arena that seats nearly 12K. Simple math when it comes to ticket availability.

I got to thinking the other day; it's a shame that UND couldn't of bid/got Sanford Premier Center in Sioux Falls for the Western Regional. It's a hair closer to GF than the Twin Cities is and just as important it's only 235 miles from the Twin Cities and the large UND alumni base. The arena seats nearly 10,700 for ice hockey, doubling Scheel's Center capacity. I think it's safe to assume it would be darn near (if not) a sell-out there the way Sioux fans travel. I wonder if that was considered initially by UND as a site for their bid and, if so, if it was simply booked up for late March? Not sure either way but UND may want to consider it in the future.
-
Probably a better show for the most part than the close but snake bit (especially at home) men's hoops team this season.
-
Uh, hornetz I think....but that aside, they were hot.....uh, good dancers.
-
Agree 100%. Despite the $$, I think Cags realizes that too. He can put up even more points next season at UND.
-
Fire Hak, bring back Blais! :-)
-
I think he will stay. Gotta think he would be a decent minor league player but questionable at NHL level (that's no insult), like a good number of UND stars over the years. Despite the number of Sioux that go on to play in the big show, a good number don't that were stars in their college days. I know it's easy to chase a $1/2M or more to sign but I'd rather be a big man on campus on a top college team year in year out playing in front of nearly 12K fans vs playing on some minor league team playing in front of 1/3 to 1/2 of that tops. We all have different values/priorities though, understood.
-
WHF?! Cags aint' drafted?! We have 14 (?) drafter players and he ain't? That amazes me.
-
Wow, ugly sweep but I'll take it! Man, 7th place in NCHC W Mich would probably be sitting in 3rd place in the Lil6 ("Big10") conf. Undisciplined/not smart play at times but they bring it. The Sioux, they just keep winning (mostly) ugly baby.
-
!@#$, 2 straight wknds. Fortunate really to get the tie but when up 2-0 gotta close it out. Haven't been swept all season long but can't sweep anything other than a cellar dweller team.
-
GD crossbar got in the way!
-
Fortunate to be up 2-0 at that point so can't whine too much about the horse's goal. Good call by Murray to pull goalie early in light of their power play.
-
Fun game today vs Sac St, shame the Sioux couldn't up the lead even more on the Bee's early as Sac St only had 3 pts at the 13:15 mark 1st half. Had the Sioux made a few more fg's and ft's, maybe a different result instead of losing by 2 pts.
-
Good point. I really think that's a reflection of their head coach. I think he's becoming the Sioux fans new George Gwozdecky to hate/rag on, not a very likeable/an annoying guy.
-
Better be. Man, WMU is their own worst enemy tonight.
