brianvf Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I see us going into their barn and coming away with 6 points. Our D-men are playing great and will continue with Stetcher leading the way. Not sure if Cagguila will be playing after hearing he was walking around with crutches, but I feel a lot of goals will be scored this weekend. Would like to see Poolman get back on the board. Gaarder is definitely in need to a goal as well. Sounds like everyone practiced yesterday so I would anticipate at least 1-2 Cagguila highlight reel goals this weekend. Quote
FightingSioux87 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Sounds like everyone practiced yesterday so I would anticipate at least 1-2 Cagguila highlight reel goals this weekend. That's right, I did read that somewhere above. Let's hope so! On Saturday night I mentioned to my gf how Cagguila's fancy goal scoring has been absent...bout a minute later I got put in my place with that goal from his back side. Maybe I need to keep making these comments and more goals/play making will follow! Quote
yelo09 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Good lord that South Bend regional gonna have 15 people there. I know it's been said on here before, but if Michigan makes the tourney, they HAVE to be going to South Bend, don't they? That regional is gonna be so bare. I agree but right now Mich is a buble team, and for some reason they think Bowling Green will produce a decent fan base Quote

kfah1 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Going to the Saturday night game... looking forward to seeing the Sioux play live since it's been awhile for me (last time when the Sioux went to the GLI...) and first time going to Lawson. Two minor questions for anyone in the know... Does anyone know which net/end of the ice the Sioux defend twice (I'm in Section 1 directly behind the net) and probably more importantly, is there a recommended bar or pub to imbibe in a few drinks before and after the game near the arena? Thanks! Sioux sweep but I'm not expecting a cakewalk by any means... Go Fighting Sioux! Quote
burd Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 This Western team can be dangerous, despite their record. Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 This Western team can be dangerous, despite their record. Agreed. Top 6 PP. However, we need to be able to sweep a team like Western. Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Agreed. Top 6 PP. However, we need to be able to sweep a team like Western. I just realized Western has only played 10 games(and are an unimpressive 3-4-3) at home this year whereas we have played 18... what am I missing? Quote
UNDBIZ Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I just realized Western has only played 10 games(and are an unimpressive 3-4-3) at home this year whereas we have played 18... what am I missing? They played in 2 tournaments and also gave up a home game for an outdoor game against Miami. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Lets go get 2 hard nosed wins and some space for the Penrose and start locking down that 1 seed for Fargo. Quote
jk Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 This Western team can be dangerous, despite their record. We appear to be in a small group on this one, and I hope we're wrong. Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 We appear to be in a small group on this one, and I hope we're wrong. I don't think anyone is heartily arguing that Western isn't a good team. My belief, as I think most think, is that we are better. Regardless of what any of us think, the boys will take them very seriously. Quote

Regardless of what any of us think, the boys will take them very seriously. Agree with all that. But with the level of parity in college hockey these days, a couple of pipes or deflections can be the difference in just about any game. Quote

Goon Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I am going to predict a series sweep. Eventually, I am going to get it right. Quote

Thanks! Sioux sweep but I'm not expecting a cakewalk by any means... Go Fighting Sioux! Section 1 should be the net that UND attacks in the 1st and 3rd periods. As far as bars here's a pretty decent list http://www.foodie.com/5056527/collections/craft-brew-college-10-best-bars-in-kalamazoo There aren't really any bars within walking distance of Lawson, but you shouldn't have a problem finding a place to drown your sorrows after a WMU sweep this weekend. Bells is a must if you like good beer and I've heard good things about the beer exchange but haven't made it out there yet. Quote
burd Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 For those who have been attending Western games, how are their fans? I have to think they are probably genuine hockey fans who can enjoy a beer and some hockey talk. Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Giddy up (unintentional Bronco reference) .... sweep... but first, a rant http://bit.ly/1DGowdA Quote
dagies Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I am going to predict a series sweep. Eventually, I am going to get it right. That's funny. Good one! Quote

scpa0305 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I'm going to guess that it's a split. Quote
tnt Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I'm going to guess that it's a split. Hope we can get the sweep, but Western spoiled our chances to win the Penrose last year when they beat us at home. Be nice to make up for that and get it done this time around. Quote
runaroundsioux Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Berger calls sweep, done deal. Quote
