stoneySIOUX Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 2012 CCHA champions...2012 NCAA runner-up...2014 WCHA champions...this team is no slouch. I'm sorry, but 2012 has nothing to do with this season. They feasted on a weak WCHA this season. Like I said before, good team, but I have no problem saying that we should win this game. 2 Quote

Plenty of players on this year's Ferris team were on that 2012 team...UND has a great opportunity on the schedule tomorrow. 1 Quote
siouxnami Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Home: 16-1-1 / Away: 10-7-2 / Neutral: 3-2-0 Ferris state is mediocre when not at home. Also they played a cupcake schedule. 45th according to KRACH. They only played 2 NCAA playoff teams and went 0-3 vs. Mankato and 1-2 vs. Colgate Quote
MoSiouxFan Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 They're all good teams at this point. Better break out the big boy breezers tomorrow. I'd have to say that they broke them out tonight. Quote
dagies Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 I don't understand the denigrating of Ferris State. They clearly earned their way into the tournament, and have a Hobey Candidate goalie. For a team like the Sioux that struggles to score, right there is reason to worry. And let's not get caught up in the 5 goals tonight. Bucky forgot to look in the rear view mirror on Parks' goal, and we'd be screaming at our goalie for giving up Rocco's first goal. Our 3rd goal was damn lucky, and so was our 4th (ENG). We MIGHT have used up a whole tourney's worth of good bounces tonight. I expect a tough, close game tomorrow and I'll be VERY happy if you guys prove you're right and I was overly concerned. 2 Quote

jdub27 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Hey jackass... You said you were waiting til morning. Glad you can bring some intuitive and inquisitive conversation to the board. Wow. Continues to throw !@#$ against the wall so he can claim he called out it was reverse psychology when he's wrong. Quote
brianvf Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Ferris leads the nation in penalty minutes this season. I would be more confident of a Sioux win tomorrow if they can break though with a PPG or two. Quote

What should have been 2:00 in the box for diving and a chance for Colgate to tie the game instead resulted in a 2:00 Bulldog power play. Quote

I just have faith in my team. I wouldn't have picked us to win it all 9 years in a row if I didn't! Hahahaha Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Plenty of players on this year's Ferris team were on that 2012 team...UND has a great opportunity on the schedule tomorrow. Agreed on that last point. Not saying it will be a cakewalk whatsoever and I'm not really degrading Ferris. I'm just saying I think we are the better team. They are here for a reason, yes, but I believe that we are the better team and should win tomorrow.... well... tonight. I also don't think we got the better of the bounces other than the GWG. Clearly, that was the biggest one, but both of Bucky's goals were on bad bounces. We outplayed Wisconsin for the majority of that game. The first ENG was a good bounce for us, too, I guess. But we also saw a lot of bad bounces go against us and still managed to keep our cool and skate to Saturday. I seriously hate playoff hockey. This one-and-done stuff is just plain gut wrenching. 1 Quote
jodcon Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Cue the good ole Saturday night let down boys Probably time for another time out until after hockey season, even the Hak-haters are tired of your act. 1 Quote

They only played 2 NCAA playoff teams and went 0-3 vs. Mankato and 1-2 vs. Colgate ...that's the exact same number of NCAA playoff teams that vaunted Union College played against this season...1-0-1 against St Cloud and 1-1-1 against Colgate.

scpa0305 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Time for payback for the debacle against Chris Kunitz's Ferris State team... For some odd reason I don't remember that game....just found out Kunitz played college hockey earlier this year. Quote

Like I said before, good team, but I have no problem saying that we should win this game. At this point in the season every team knows how to win. Also, with this one and done format crazy things happen. It's hockey, if we don't show up at puck drop we'll lose. Sioux and gopher fans know more than any other teams what can happen if you don't show up for a game in this tourney. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Gameday....3-2 as Buehler scores late to make it interesting. Maybe we can get a big group to go and rent out Desean Jackson's house for the F4! Quote

MafiaMan Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Maybe we can get a big group to go and rent out DeSean Jackson's house for the F4! Wouldn't that be spelled "Jaccson"? Quote
Dead Yedi Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 I think gfhockey is doing his best Dan Cole 'the Common Man' bit and trying to 'motivate' the club. Tiresome nonetheless. Sioux Sweep, Roll Tribe. Quote
Dead Yedi Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 I saw schlossman post it too, but the crowd there actually looked much better then I would have expected. Especially watching some of the other games. Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 For some odd reason I don't remember that game....just found out Kunitz played college hockey earlier this year. 30-9-1 record in 2002-2003 coming into NCAA tournament play. CCHA champions. Placed in west regional at Mariucci Arena as the #2 seed. While #1 seed Minnesota dismantled Mercyhurst in their first game, the #3 seed Sioux looked like they took the Bulldogs for granted and were looking ahead in a 5-2 loss. Minny then defeated Ferris 7-4 and advanced to the Frozen Four. Beat Michigan in OT and them rolled UNH in the championship game. Quote
Sioux2007 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Ok ...... So what time is the lacrosse game? #ESPNproblems 1 Quote
