Stack Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 I know this may seem a little crazy but I looked at the entire Sioux Hockey schedule and predicted all of the games for next year.

mikejm Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Jeepers. I'm still trying to decide what kind of tequila to buy for the weekend and you've already plotted out 'til March!!!!!!!!!! Quote
82SiouxGuy Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 I predict that the team will have a couple of good games early in the season, but will struggle through much of the early part of the season. They will start to gel around the end of the 1st semester. They will play really well through the last half of the season. They should compete for one of the top 2 or 3 spots in the WCHA. And they will ride the late season success into the national tournament. You know, just another year. Quote
Goon Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 I predict that there will be a donnybrooke on the weekend of October 16th-17th, also on the weekend of January 15th and 16th Minnesota. I also predict that there will be all this ranting and raving about how the Sioux are a bunch of goons no matter who starts it. Quote
siouxweet Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Were is the ND in Chicago? The United Center? no it's as some location just outside of chicago. Quote

I've never understood how people can predict a tie considering how rare they are. Quote
Stack Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 6 ties? I've never understood how people can predict a tie considering how rare they are. Last year we had 4 ties. If you take all of the WCHA teams last year and average the number of ties per team, you get an average of 5.9 ties per team in the season. So I guess 6 ties doesn't seem too out of the normal. Quote
DAR Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 6 ties? I've never understood how people can predict a tie considering how rare they are. wow...a little premature....but hey its the offseason. Sioux will be loaded at forward I know that much. Quote
OETKB Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 I do this every season. Usually, I'm not too far off. For 2009-10, I've got them with a record of 22 - 11 - 3, which is only the regular season, of course. Given that UND did not lose anyone early, and given the talent level of the incoming forwards, I would expect this team to do well. They could be the sleeper team of 2009. Quote
Sioux17 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 might be way behind on this but is forney coming back. i see him listed on the wiki Quote
The Sicatoka Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 might be way behind on this but is forney coming back. i see him listed on the wiki That's maintained by your fellow posters. And none of us are sure. We're not sure Forney's sure. Quote
sioux7>5 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 what about lines, captains? I think VV will be the Captain. I think he would be a great choice. I am more pissed that the Sioux are not going to Madison or Mankato this year. Those are my favorite road trips Quote

The Sicatoka Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 I predict that there will be a donnybrooke on the weekend of October 16th-17th ... I know what a donnybrook is and I know that "blond" normally refers to males and "blonde" normally refers to females, so, does that mean a donnybrooke is a chick-fight? Quote
siouxforce19 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Genoway will be captain. The signs have already been there for the past 2 seasons. Vandy and Zajac with the A's...not sure on the other A. Quote
Big A HG Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Genoway will be captain. The signs have already been there for the past 2 seasons. Vandy and Zajac with the A's...not sure on the other A. I'm gonna skip the junior class and say that Gregoire gets the last one. Quote
siouxforce19 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 I'm gonna skip the junior class and say that Gregoire gets the last one. Gregoire or Hextall I could go with on the last one. Agree on skipping the junior class. Quote
tnt Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Do they generally have 4 captains? I thought they normally went with Tri-captains, have they changed that? Quote
siouxforce19 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 Do they generally have 4 captains? I thought they normally went with Tri-captains, have they changed that? Last year Capt- Dunc A's - Finley, Jones, Watkins Year before- Capt- Kaip A's - Dunc, Chorney, and Oshie (but he got his taken away) Year before THAT- Capt- Porter A's - Toews, Kaip, Fabian * And that's as far back as my semi-photographic memory will go.

redwing77 Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 I'm fairly certain that in 2005-2006 it went like this: Smaby - C Not at all sure of who the Assistant Captains are. They could be Prpich, Fabian, Stafford.... Zajac's last year was 2005-6, but I'm not sure he ever wore a letter. Quote

They could be Prpich, Fabian, Stafford.... Zajac's last year was 2005-6, but I'm not sure he ever wore a letter. The year Smaby was C, we only had two A's that I remember....Prpich and Porter. Let me check. I tried searching fightingsioux.com, but it is telling me nothing. Quote
