It would be interesting to see who it was? Quote
gfhockey Posted January 25, 2010 Author Posted January 25, 2010 no i was jsut wondering what exaclty they said and if theres a link to a newspaper article or something Quote
siouxweet Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 no i was jsut wondering what exaclty they said and if theres a link to a newspaper article or something could it have been the uscho writer for the ecac who in his predictions called us midwestern elitists? Quote
Goon Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I have been scanning the posts from the Cornell hockey beat writers and they were respectful and complentry. The tv broadcasters were very respectful and complentry. INCH's Gladdy was very complentry of UND, he from Ithica bent over back wards to say nice things. Sounds like he brought Brad and Jayson warm cloths for the second night. Quote

Goon Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 North Dakota @ Cornell This might be the last big non-conference series of the year for ECAC Hockey, and a rare opportunity for fans at Lynah to see a WCHA team up close and in person. Fortunately for the Red & White, NoDak is sub-par away from The Ralph. UND's goaltending is average at best, and the rest of the roster is deep but surprisingly lacking in star-power. Sophomore Jason Gregoire is the only double-digit goal-scorer on the team (12), and stellar offensive defenseman Chay Genoway hasn't played since mid-November (concussion issues). It's time to remind the elitist midwesterners (doesn't that sound funny, coming from an Ivy League school?) what ECAC Hockey is, and what it can do. 4-2 Big Red [Read more] Maybe he was talking about this little nugget.

gfhockey Posted January 25, 2010 Author Posted January 25, 2010 maybe i misheard him goon.. that could be it cuz i think he said the reporter picked cornell to sweep them Quote

82SiouxGuy Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 That might be it? That's what Eades was talking about. He said that the team didn't appreciate the comments or getting picked to be swept. Here is the prediction for Saturday. Instincts tell me to pick the split, and I'd just typed up my justification for it when I said, the heck with it. Cornell has a team capable of beating just about anybody when it's on its game, and this is a big-stage moment for the 2009-10 Big Red. Go get 'em, boys. 2-1 Cornell. Quote
mikejm Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Wait. Wut? Is this belly-aching about what USCHO and some other message board posts said? Get a grip people. Quote
ScottM Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Wait. Wut? Is this belly-aching about what USCHO and some other message board posts said? Get a grip people. I'll say. Good grief, it message board chatter really could fire up a team, we'd probably have 12 Titles by now. Quote
82SiouxGuy Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Wait. Wut? Is this belly-aching about what USCHO and some other message board posts said? Get a grip people. Eades was on KNOX radio this morning like he normally is on Mondays during the season. He casually mentioned that some players on the team didn't like a couple of comments that were written by Eastern press. A couple of people wanted to know exactly what was said that the players didn't like and some of us were trying to identify the comments. No one here is belly-aching about anything, and I don't think the players were that concerned about it either. It was just a point of conversation. So I think every already has a grip, they just wanted a little clarification and information. Quote
gfhockey Posted January 25, 2010 Author Posted January 25, 2010 sorry i opend a can of worms just was curious on what was said. can close the thread please if needed Quote
siouxweet Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I'll say. Good grief, it message board chatter really could fire up a team, we'd probably have 12 Titles by now. yeah I bet you that the saints had the extra edge because michael strahan picked the vikes yesterday Quote

Goon Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I think it's funny that Cornell fans brag about the Lynah advantage but I don't think the rink is anymore intimidating than any other WCHA rink. Then I read somewhere that no Western team had been there since 1979. So if anything that advantage is probably over stated. Maybe the WCHA needs to travel to some of these places and play. Quote
The Whistler Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Hennesey was talking about this on the pregame interview with Hakstol. Personally I don't mind them calling our hockey team elitist. I think it sounds kinda cool. You'd think the USCHO writer would be used to covering out of conference hockey teams. Quote

I guess after listening to our competitors call UND a bunch of country bum kins and knuckle dragging, snuff chewing hicks I think it's kind of funny to be called elite. It would be cool to play them guys more, seems like it could be a fun rivalry. Quote
mikejm Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 ...I read somewhere that no Western team had been there since 1979. So if anything that advantage is probably over stated... If no WCHA team had been there for 30 years, I'd say the rink is extremely intimidating. And, by definition, an advantage. Quote

The students were still on break, so I'd say we had only about 50% of our usual idiocy. Because of that, much of the crowd was people who don't often get a chance to score a ticket, resulting in a more sedate group. Not to mention that due to Sioux' incredible in-your-face-constant-pressure defense, we were holding our breaths for much of the time. Heck, what was it? Eight minutes the whole weekend we had a lead? Can a Cornell guy be a Sioux fan? I'd love to wear one of those excellent black jersies while I watch on DirecTV... Quote

I think you could find a lot of college hockey fans around the country that choose UND as a 2nd favorite team, or at least a team they like to follow. Either that or they hate the Sioux, and we all know those people are jealous. Quote
