Sodbuster Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I miss him, especially when calling a Sioux/Gopher game as the Sioux were kicking their a**! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(OT not included) That was a memorable weekend indeed. The first WCHA Final Five in the brand new Excel Center. I had never been in an arena that nice, and wouldn't get to one better for about oh 7 months when the new Ralph opened. During the Friday afternoon semifinal win over CC, Karl Goehring did a header on a floating puck. And on Saturday night with about 6 minutes left on the clock and UND way down, my very confident 8 year old daughter said "I think we will win. We have Panzer." And yeah she thought the goalie was pushed too. Mad about that for a couple days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 The first year in the new Ralph they should have went with the green breezers and helmets at home. Nothing wrong with the blacks, but just don't compare to the nostalgia of the green IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightingsioux4life Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Does anyone have one or both games of the January 31-February 1, 1997 home series vs. Minnesota? That was a crucial series in the Dean Blais rebuilding project. It solidified us as a legitimate title contender and not a first-half fluke. The entire campus was buzzing about the series the week before and the atmosphere was unreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackheart Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 The Gofers are in town to take on the Sioux at beautiful REA in October of 2009. Alex Kangas in goal for Minny; Brad Eidsness backstopping the Sioux. Apparently Lucia felt this was still a 'healthy' rivalry at this point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackheart Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 October 2004 at the REA...The dirty Gofers are in town but the Sioux are missing Zach Parise and Brandon Bochenski (early signings). Dean Blais is gone as well and has been replaced by Dave Hakstol. Will the Sioux have enough firepower to beat the rodents? We'll see! Note: If you watch the second intermission, there's a point where the camera pans the crowd after coming back after a commercial. It shows some young punks in the crowd goofing around and wrestling with each other. The blonde kid sure looks like a young TJ Oshie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first hockey game was that night, as a freshman in the student section. Made that ticket campout for season tickets worth it (although that campout was a massive cluster****) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackheart Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Two familiar rivals playing in the Final Five 3rd place game? The Sioux look to beat the Gofers and solidify their seeding for the NCAA's. Rastislav Spirko absolutely fakes Chris Harrington out of his jock on his way to a huge shorthanded goal. No Robbie Bina in the lineup as he was injured in the previous night's game against DU. (Geoff Paukovich) It's all here! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burd Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 It's been great, blackheart. Thanks again. Who would have thought UND would win all these big games in March-May of the same year. I would guess it's somewhere back in this thread, but can someone post the tic-tac-toe play? I've seen more amazing individual plays but never a team play like that. At any level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackheart Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The Sioux play their 3rd game in 3 days at the 2010 WCHA Final Five. They face the SCSU Huskies in the title game and they appear to be a little sleepy in the first minute of play. Brad Eidsness shakes off a rough start to lead the boys to a strong finish. Enjoy! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
