AZSIOUX Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 7:37 puck drop the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center UND winless in their last 6 6-3 nodak Quote
Siouxman Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Copied this over from the other thread for those traveling to the game. Just did an I-94 check for those traveling to the hockey games. Conditions are not good in the Fergus Falls area. I drove a 4 mile stretch of I-94. The driving lanes are 100% covered with snow on top of ice and frozen slush. It didn't appear that state plows had been out at all. Visibility varies from about 300-400 feet down to where I could not see if there was any visibility. The radar on Intellicast shows the current snow is falling all of the way to St. Cloud. Driving speed is in the 30-40 mph range. There is a little passing going on but it looks like the passing lane has little to no traffic at all. I was in a pickup in 4 wheel drive and it got skittish on me a couple of times, but nothing terrible. Part of it is the roughness of the frozen slush underneath the snow. The secondary roads in the area are worse, both for road conditions and visibility. Be safe. If you are a skilled winter driver you should be okay if you take plenty of time. If you are not, I would stay home. 2 Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 This game screams high scoring, gotta believe UND breaks the winless streak tonight 5-4 UND w/ OT winner by Boeser Quote
Godsmack Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Yah, I see UND breaking out of this winless skid. Watched St. Cloud last weekend and while they were good against the inconsistent Tigers, there were some stretches where CC out-played SCSU. This tells me that they're human and UND, being a deeper and more talented team than CC, should be able to give St. Cloud a tougher fight. 1 Quote
Godsmack Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Oh yah, I predict UND will win, 5-3. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 I have no idea what to think going into this weekend so I went to the Magic 8 Ball MafiaMan gave me for Valentine's Day last year.....it read "Without a doubt". I'm going to assume that means a UND win. 4-3 good guys...........finally. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 I am in Brainerd visiting my girlfriend and the roads are not good here. Talked to someone in town for youth hockey tomorrow and the roads are really bad from the Cities to Brainerd. Thankfully, I don't have to go anywhere until Sunday. Quote

I have to go to Alexandria for my niece's birthday after the kids get done with school. Hopefully the weather and roads are much better by then. Good chance I'll miss most of the games this weekend so thanks in advance for the updates from everyone on here, I'll be glued to my phone as much as the old lady lets me. Quote

stoneySIOUX Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Encouraging signs the last two week and I think that progress finally helps us break out. Good guys win, 5-2. Boeser, Pogo, Olson, JJ, T Pooly Quote

It took my buddy 6 hours to get to Alex from Fargo this morning. Hopefully things have cleared up more by now. Quote

MafiaMan Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Section 121, baby, here we come! Has anyone seen my Magic 8 Ball around? I think Oxbow6 stole it last time I saw him. Well, whatever, I'm going with 6-4 Fighting Hawks! Quote
sioux24/7 Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Currently on the road. 99 miles from St. Cloud and roads are just okay but fine drive. Quote

Here we go Sioux fans, this could be the spark we are all looking for! Let's go boys, light em up! I will be there for Saturday's game! Go Sioux! Quote
Feff Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 I look forward to seeing what these lines can do. Boeser and Jost just weren't working out together like hoped. Hate seeing those special teams stats. Good gods those are awful. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Worth a shot..........Jost should be more of a force. Like that line as do I like Boeser's new line. No Olson......did not realize he was on a 54 games goal less stretch. Need to get something from lines 3 and 4. Please let the PK be better than it has been Quote
bcblues Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Gad I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but just which team can score more goals? I am hoping it is the boys in green. I agree: Anything more than a split would be wonderful. Quote
