You have to think Blais will be fired before the tournament begins, with the way his team has collapsed down the stretch. Sandelin could be gone too. Maybe gfhockey can get them jobs running errands on the patch.

I wonder if they know how to drive stick shifts.

Stick to the yearly screaming of firing your own coach and don't try to pretend you have a clue what's going on in Duluth.

Sandelin isn't going anywhere

Yeah it was probably sarcasm but oh well. Annoying times in Duluth

Duluth will be traveling out east as a #2 seed with two weeks rest, instead of a #1 or 2 seed with games against the best teams in the country this weekend. Annoying perhaps, but a pretty good place to start for a run at the title.

Are you old enough to remember the decade in between the national championship seasons of 1987 and 1997? Some pretty lean years there. Not any one season anywhere near as bad as 4-24-4 but I believe only 1 NCAA appearance if I remember correctly. Sioux fans didn't burn GF to the ground, they merely shifted their focus more to the up-and-coming football program. It was not at all difficult to get Sioux hockey tickets during most of those years.

The years between 87 and 97 are nowhere near 4-25-5 so can't really compare. Also, twitter wasn't around allowing people to assemble quickly for the purposes of destroying a town :)

The Sioux had some real offensive firepower during the 89-91 years--G Johnson, Dixon Ward, Jeff McLean, Eisenhut, Bombadir.   They just didn't have the whole roster, though, including goaltending

88-92: great talent, great expectations, and more disappointing results each year in that strech.

1991-1992 was pretty abysmal and REA had maybe 2,500-3,000 fans in attendance on any given night.

Watch Western upset Miami today and we'll see two NCAA tournament-bound teams resting up and getting healthy.

Uhhhh...it's a long-running inside joke here, DHG. Don't get your SpongeBob tightie whities in a bundle.
