Fedorov Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 Where is the excitement for this weekend? Everyone was happy after the Final Five performance, but now everyone seems to be out of energy. I hope the team will be ready to go in two days. I'm still waiting for people to talk about going to the game. There has been no stats analysis of the games. What are you gorillas doing? Watching Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and drinking a fantabulous banana daiquiris? The season isn't over yet, so post some comments. You will have several months in the off-season to have little to talk about. Has REA came in and taken the atmosphere away from here too? Quote
NDFAN Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 I'm pumped for the weekend! Both teams have injuries, get over it. I think the team is peaking, and I think the coaching is solid. Drop the puck already! I can't stand the wait! Quote
mikejm Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 Okay, here's my scenario: Game opens slowly, with some big, clean hitting. Greene and Fuher, especially, lay huge hits on smallish BU forwards, putting a psychological "trap" into effect. Puppies forwards adopt a "dump and get dumped" attack. In the meantime, the Red Pepper line shows how they earned their name and outwork Puppies in corner, digging puck free to Andy Schneider who rips a wicked wrister from the point for 1-0 lead. On the ensuing faceoff, Zajac feeds Stafford who takes both Puppy Dmen with him, then leaves a drop pass for Spirko who undresses Pup keeper for 2-0 lead, at about the 11 minute mark of the first. 28 seconds later Pups score to get back to within one, but this is their last hurrah. Sioux add 3 more: from Fylling, Greene and Porter. Jordan Parise makes but 19 saves. Quote

What channel will they be on? Quote
Ba Ba Canoosh Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 The key to this week-end, and here on out for that matter, is mental toughness. I believe that Hak is doing an exellent job in this area. The mentality for the D corps should be "search and destroy" mode...make them pay for coming into our end of the rink. Goooo Sioux!!!!! Quote
PCM Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 The atmosphere in my living room sucks! My wife won't let me stand for the whole game and she gets angry when I swear at the TV! I'm the only member of my family who cheers! Midcontinent charges too much for cable! How come I don't get a cupholder on my recliner? Why won't Scott Hennen come to my house to do the PA duties?

Do we share the same living room??? I don't think MidCo charges too much. I get my moneys worth. Edited March 23, 2005 by NDFAN Quote
Ba Ba Canoosh Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 I can see how this is all going to come together....the Sioux win out at regionals, totally dominate the gophers because we are now a better team. Beat Denver in the Frozen Four for the National Title - just like in 82 against Wisconsin...GO SIOUX!!! Quote

CMH Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 I'm fired up, I'm checking (because I don't yet know) where I'm going to be able to see the games this weekend. Checking out ESPN.com and none of their guys (commentators) have the UND in the final four. I don't think they know what they're talking about! Besides, those Boston boys are afraid of us right now, because we have have been playing very strong lately (injuries in all). Quote

I know the WCHA is strong, and they are playing on home ice, but the Maroon and Gold are on the wrong escalator....HEADING DOWN....NOT UP!!! The SIOUX proved last weekend that if they play smart and stay focused they can come up with two wins this weekend!! Quote

NorthDakotaHockey Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 From where we sit, this team is on a roll. They got the coffee too. What ever happened to Jim Adelson anyway? He around The Ralph much? Anyway, Sioux are gonna crush BU. I got a feeling. A feeling deep inside. Gonna crush 'em. The Saturday clash with Mercyhurst will be a nailbiter, but Sioux win that one with a shutout. Maybe 2-0. Holy Cross like. Hopefully, Prpich will be back. I didn't see how the Red Pepper line got its name. Maybe someone could tell me. I did note in the Final Five Souvenir Program that Captain Matt Greene's favorite "vacation destination" is the Italian Moon. I think that Genoway and Jones are gonna be taking turns driving The Bus this weekend. The Bus to Columbus. Great time of year. Not gonna get too high. Not gonna get too low. All things in moderation, except when the NCAA Hockey Tourney is in play. Quote

Gotta get me a grinder kit delivered for Friday. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I want it to be unbelievable and impossible. My scienario is this: UND 7 BU 2. Who cares who gets the BU goals. Strong performances by Matt Greene and Eric Fabian, who both got hat tricks . the last goal was Zajac on the PK (Matt Smaby for patting a BU player on the back). FEAR THE GREENE SNIPER! Quote

Start donating some money, organizing some petitions, and be thankful you get watch Sioux hockey. Thanks for the laugh tonight. Quote
