sprig Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Have the Sioux ever played any games in other places in North Dakota (not their home rink)? Seem to remember an annual exhibition game (maybe in the 70s) at the Bismarck Civic Center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Whistler Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Seem to remember an annual exhibition game (maybe in the 70s) at the Bismarck Civic Center. Did they play in 1978 somewhere in the state. It seems to me that Kevin Maxwell missed his first game in the Winter Sports Arena because of a fight. My impression was that game was in Minot or something but I definitely could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Whistler Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I am still up for the parking lot game. On the river! Put the opponents bench over the weak spot in the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 Did they play the Olympic team in Minot years ago? I think they may have... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottM Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I vaguely remember some sort of exhibition game in the F-M area probably in the late 70s. Maybe against a foreign team. I could be wrong about that one, but I definitely remember them playing Soviet teams in GF, like Torpedo Gorky. Damn fine sweaters if you can find one ...

There was a time they would play 2 exhib. games with UMTC. I saw one game in Eveleth in '78 and Hibbing in '77. I believe they also played in Minot both years as well.

Laddie Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Have the Sioux ever played any games in other places in North Dakota (not their home rink)? Yeah, they played Minnesota in Minot in the late 70s. I think Reg Morelli had something to do with having it played there. There was a huge brawl. I believe Phil Sykes, who was a freshman at the time playing his first game for the Sioux, got things going. I seem to remember that they may have even called the game after the brawl, since it was an exhibition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
