WCHA Final Five:  #1 seed Sioux playing at 4:00 pm.  "Gopher conspiracy - we should be playing in prime-time!"

NCHC Frozen Face-Off:  #1 seed Sioux play at 4:00 pm.  "Totally the right call by UND so the boys can rest up."

:lol:

Haha yeah I remember that!

Ha.

It was the #4 and #5 teams who had the bigger complaint.

Once you've lived in Denver, moving to Minneapolis is a hard sell.  Doubtful they have any fans within driving distance.

Don't have to move to Minneapolis to support your team.  There is no passion from the DU fan base.  My daughter is flying in from Denver for the games this weekend.  She attended Arizona State.  However she will be wearing Sioux green and I am positive will be out-cheering by herself the entire DU (all 12 of them) delegation.  Even the Sioux games in Denver have more UND fans than Pioneer fans.

did you report him to the nchc so he could be tagged recorded and released back into the wild

Hatched in captivity (may have been from an egg), tagged b4 release. Had to use a Đenver clad dummy on a stick to artificially impregnate a female.

to be fair, it's usually 12 Denver fans and a cowbell.

Which actually makes it even more amazing that DU is able to be one of the best teams year after year - high tuition, no fan base.

So what do you guys think? Who takes home the conference tourney?

Four teams playing at very high levels. I am starting my blog tonight and I still haven't decided on my picks yet. Man, I cannot wait to watch these four games.

I am expecting the SCSU-DU game to be a real barn burner.  Hopefully it goes several overtimes.  Should be real entertaining, though the Sioux games should be as well.

Last year the "Zane" fathead made it all the way thru the NCHC and regional to the F4.

Starting this weekend the "Brock" fathead is hoping to do the same!

Im gonna say Duluth and Denver win Friday and we play St Cloud in the 3rd place game for chance at #1 seed in the West Regional.

DU is a rich kid daycare for ski bums, I wouldn't expect the students to be engaged. Too bad the locals take their success for granted though. More and more hockey talent coming out of CO due to the Thunderbird program.

Beating Duluth for a 5th straight time, at the stupid Target Center, in the afternoon. I just dont see it happening. Sooo hope I am wrong here.

We don't have the same level of incentive that Duluth has; they are fighting for their playoff lives, while we are almost assured of getting a #1 seed someplace. But I do think our team is sick of hearing about the 1-3 all time Frozen Faceoff record and I think they will come out and treat this like any other game.

Whoa, whoa...what happened to haughty? Perhaps unwarranted, it was at least entertaining.

I'm sure we're all hoping for a better effort than we've seen in UND's past Frozen Faceoff appearances. It should be a fantastic tournament with no clear favorite.

I feel the boys are ready to change their fortunes at the Target Center and they win Friday.  

All 4 teams are hot, so should be some good battles.

Go SIOUX!!

#haughty was for our Duluth friend who likes to troll this message board. I know it will be a tough tournament to win.

Another crappy TC Tournament & they will be happy 12 folks from Denver show up in the future

I'm glad this tournament doesn't really count for us cause these 3 teams will be battling - for the sake of good hockey I hope we do too - but if we get behind or Cam has a bad day I don't see us battling back

Hope I'm wrong

If we bring our "A" game, we win both games (and run the table to #8)

Yup.... 10-11 sure didn't care we we're already a locked in No. 1. Just another team in the way of the ultimate goal. No reason we don't see UND's best effort this weekend.
