siouxjoy Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 LOL! I debated starting a thread when I discovered that ss.com was back up, but I knew it had to come from AZSIOUX. I am looking at my Frozen Four tickets and grinning like a fool. Not sure I can sleep tonight...that game nearly killed me. CONGRATS SIOUX! Quote
franchise Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 When will we know if UND is the early or late game? Gotta clear the schedule if they get the early game. Quote
AZSIOUX Posted March 31, 2008 Author Posted March 31, 2008 im there with 7 others, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Quote
siouxjoy Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 When will we know if UND is the early or late game? Gotta clear the schedule if they get the early game. The Sioux play the early game. Quote
captsioux Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 inch has und listed as the early game right now Quote
Beemer_1234 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Sugars was packed, many more bars need to invest in satalite around here. Every place that had the game on tonight probably made well over what a year contract with DirecTV would cost them just in one night. What a great victory!!! Congrats to the team and the coaches. Denver bound here we come!!!! Quote
redwing77 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Here's my predictions and early match up analysis: First off, if we play like we did in OT and in the 3rd period, we'll win. If we play like we did in the 2nd period, we'll lose... BAD. We need to crash the net against BC. Muse is a good goaltender, but he cannot control rebounds. Matchup Analysis: Offense: On paper, I think UND has better scoring depth. However, in reality, BC's offense has been unbelievable throughout the HEA playoffs and the NCAAs thus far. UND's offense has been "alright." We don't shoot the puck well enough and we don't crash the net well enough. This needs to change. EDGE: BC even though Oshie has been dynamic and Duncan has been clutch. Defense: We should be the clear front runner defensively, but again, we've been giving up a TON of shots thus far and BC's defense has been ok. BC's size (or lack of it as there are at least 9 players under 5'11" on the team) will cause problems. Edge: Draw. I think both of our teams are so fast that I think both defenses will have their work cut out for them. Goaltending: Muse is a freshman goaltender. He's good, but his rebound control is atrocious. JPL has been the star of the NCAAs for the Sioux. EDGE: UND. We can argue that Muse is the worst goaltender still playing at this time. Penalty Kill: Don't know much about BC's PK unit but it looked good against UMN and Miami. UND's PK unit has been solid all year long. EDGE: UND just because we're going to need it thanks to big D checking small F. PP: No comment. I know nothing about BC's PP. Coaching: York has had UND's number the past 2 years. He may hold a slight edge over Hakstol. Quote
Siouxtimestwo Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 I don't think I've ever had as much fun following a sports team in my life as this year's Sioux hockey team. 2 more games and the pact will be fulfilled. Quote
Beemer_1234 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 im there with 7 others, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Count me and one of the Orwick hoodlums in!!!! And who ever else wants to come with us. Quote
jojordan23 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 How early are we talking? If they don't play until 4pm Mountain Time, I won't get to see it, as I will be at work. If they play earlier, I'll get to watch. GO SIOUX!!! BEAT THEM EAGLES!!!! Quote
Fetch Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Just got home from Hooligans ....Nice Place - Had Fun ....Dean Blais was there & packed with SIOUX Fans - Good Food & GOD Bless the Fighting Sioux Quote
BigGreyAnt41 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 How early are we talking? If they don't play until 4pm Mountain Time, I won't get to see it, as I will be at work. If they play earlier, I'll get to watch. GO SIOUX!!! BEAT THEM EAGLES!!!! There's an easy solution to that.....take the day off. I know I'll be leaving early so I won't have to worry about missing the beginning due to traffic. Quote
AussieSiouxFan Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Yeah baby, I am so F'in pumped up for the FF I have booked the flights just need tickets and accomodation. Aussie Sioux Fan is goin to the FF wooooooo. Quote
fargosioux Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 I'll be there again with my wife and kids. Booked my flights and room in May 2007. Hope to meet some ss.com members! Quote
jk Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 The good news is, at least they aren't on a big roll right now, and might cool off with the extended break before the FF. Wow, they really only played one good period of hockey all weekend and managed to win twice. BC looked like their usual dynamic selves this weekend, and I think they will be awfully hard to handle again this year. Hopefully the rest lets the Sioux recharge their batteries a bit, and they can have a little jump in their skates. Quote
siouxbear1 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 im there with 7 others, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Reunion time for AZSIOUX and SIOUXBEAR -- I'm bringing 8 others oh yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First timers will be my two boys ages 11 & 14...they won't sleep tonight! Smart mom award -- I held it to secrecy until we scored in OT...booked my flights over a month ago at $212.00 a person...now they are $718.00....now that's PRICELESS!!!! I would have never heard the end of it if we wouldn't have made it!!!! Quote
farce poobah Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Tonight marks an 8-game winning streak in NCAA Regionals: * Beanpot in 2005 (BC, BU) * Ralph in '06 (MI, HC) * The Can in 2007 (MI, MN) -- the Sioux are unbeaten all time at the pepsi center * Madison, 2008 Pretty awesome string. Quote

Avs_SiouxFan Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 A ND alum in CO I really want to go to FF will tickets be on sale on USCHO? I thought I saw on the boards that was a possibility Quote
AZSIOUX Posted March 31, 2008 Author Posted March 31, 2008 A ND alum in CO I really want to go to FF will tickets be on sale on USCHO? I thought I saw on the boards that was a possibility they will be all over with no cc or denver in it uscho ebay siouxsports gopher puck live Quote
HaksHomey Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 "pact" themed t-shirts would be cool to see in the stands in Denver... like green shirts that read "fulfilling the pact" or something, i dont know, might be cool. I think the 'pact' needs to get more attention (nationally). Quote
Sioux-cia Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 they will be all over with no cc or denver in it uscho ebay siouxsports gopher puck live Don't buy them on ebay!! And don't pay more than face value. I bought mine from USCHO last year for face value. They had a bunch for sale last year for face value. Quote
