I'll be watching from the comfort of my couch getting accustomed with the team in preparation for next weekend. Quote
sioux rube Posted October 10, 2009 Author Posted October 10, 2009 I'll be watching from the comfort of my couch getting accustomed with the team in preparation for next weekend.Still kind of baffles me why your goofers didn't play this weekend.I really think it's going to be an advantage for the SIOUX having a couple of games to help get some of the kinks out.

Could go either way. The other side of the argument would be, how stupid would we have looked if someone would've gotten hurt? Especially because the Gophers usually struggle in the 2nd half of the season, not the first half of the year. Quote
siouxforeverbaby Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Lines are up on Brad's Blog Here are the lines for now. UND's lineup is the exact same as Friday night. Merrimack is switching up goalies and throwing in a pair of rookies on the wings of the third line. UND's lines 17 Jason Gregoire--29 Chris VandeVelde--7 Danny Kristo 19 Evan Trupp--22 Brad Malone--26 Brett Hextall 9 Mario Lamoureux--11 Darcy Zajac--27 Carter Rowney 8 Mike Cichy--10 Corban Knight--18 David Toews 24 Ben Blood--5 Chay Genoway 3 Derrick LaPoint--25 Jake Marto 2 Andrew MacWilliam--20 Joe Gleason 31 Brad Eidsness 32 Aaron Dell Merrimack's lines 23 Chris Barton--27 Jesse Todd--16 J.C. Robitaille 20 Ryan Flanigan--25 Matt Moulakelis--11 Elliott Sheen 8 John Heffernan--14 Joe Cucci--12 Brandon Brodhag 17 Justin Bonitatibus--9 Carter Madsen--15 John Jamieson 7 Karl Stollery--4 Pat Bowen 26 Adam Ross--22 Brandon Sadlowski 5 Simon Demers--3 Kyle Bigos 33 Andrew Braithwaite 35 Joe Cannata It would seem that Eids is getting the start again tonight. Reminder for those left in Sioux Survivor, your picks for tonight must be in by 6:30pm. Quote
brianvf Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Merrimack switching it up though in net. Interesting. Quote
Big A HG Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Merrimack switching it up though in net. Interesting. Noticed that as well. I didn't think Cannata played as bad as the score indicated....the Sioux just pummeled the team to 5 scores. Let's see if the new guy can make the big saves when needed. Shocked to not see Dell in the game. Quote
brianvf Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Shocked to not see Dell in the game. That surprises me too. I would have thought Hakstol would go with Dell tonight and then start Eidsness both games against the Gophers. Quote
yzerman19 Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Hak must've liked what he saw out there...can't say that I blame him. There appears to be early chemistry, and last night was a team win with all lines chipping in. It is very early, but I thought the freshman came out ready to play at this level. That says something about those freshmen. Quote
Sioux-cia Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 That surprises me too. I would have thought Hakstol would go with Dell tonight and then start Eidsness both games against the Gophers. I'm not surprised. Eids needs as much time in front of the offense as possible before going up against the Goofs. Quote
gopherz Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I'm not surprised. Eids needs as much time in front of the offense as possible before going up against the Goofs. He will be spending a lot of time fishing pucks out of the back of his net next weekend so might as well practice now. Quote
passit_offthegoalie Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 He will be spending a lot of time fishing pucks out of the back of his net next weekend so might as well practice now. During pre-game warm-ups, yeah. Quote

BigGreyAnt41 Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 They seriously need to find people who can actually sing the Star Spangled Banner. That was awful. Quote
siouxforeverbaby Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 They seriously need to find people who can actually sing the Star Spangled Banner. That was awful. Thank God, I am not the only one who thinks that! MY WORD, We have awful people singing this year. Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 They seriously need to find people who can actually sing the Star Spangled Banner. That was awful. That lady completely butchered the anthem. Quote
31-9 Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Thank God, I am not the only one who thinks that! MY WORD, We have awful people singing this year. Why not just let the band play it? I mean, it's the National Anthem, not your goddamn American Idol audition. I'd like PP goals tonight, lots of 'em. Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Why not just let the band play it? I mean, it's the National Anthem, not your goddamn American Idol audition. I'd like PP goals tonight, lots of 'em. I'm convinced Simon would've said something like, "That was utterly horrible." Quote
farce poobah Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Merrimack is already 1 goal ahead of last nights pace ... Quote
