Maybe I missed something, but what is the fascination with Notre Dame? Why does a CCHA club make a world of difference to the Sioux or Hak?

Good question. Tim and Swyg bring up the other UND. It's not Hak.

Thanks for the recap, PCM.

they are #3 in the nation and would be a #1 seed if the ncaa's started today, probably just a random question about a team sioux fans dont get to see play....maybe they were not expected to do anything this year and have snuck up, who knows and who cares :whistling:

Kirk, crackers are a family food. Happy families. Maybe single people eat crackers; we don't know. Frankly, we don't want to know. It's a market we can do without.

I don't agree with this. I only watched on the internet but my impression this game got chippier and chippier, and frankly I expected to see another throwdown the way things were going.

I didn't agree with it, either. But then, I didn't want to be accused of giving the "PC version." :whistling:

On the MN/Denver question, Hak said that the MN gap was one that they basically couldn't close. So if MN wins out, that helps to bring the rest of the teams back to UND.

The thing is that Minnesota isn't unbeatable. I watched their god awful series against Wisconsin. If Minnesota play like that against us we will win one of the games. Lossing both against Minnesota is unacceptable.

Gosh, before Christmas I was saying I'd take ONE point vs. Minnesota at that rate. Now, I think we can make their lives a little tough for those two games.

ALl in all, though, Hakstol is right. Minnesota has won the WCHA outright if not this weekend, sooner or later. And, if Minnesota sweeps DU, UND sweeps Minnesota, and then Minnesota wins out, it will really help UND.

Ok, I don't expect UND to sweep Minnesota either. But that scenario looks AWFULLY nice.

Also if UND wins out, every other game in college hockey is a tie, and every committed future NHL 1st round draft pick changes his commitment to UND, it will help UND. :ohmy::whistling:

I think its funny that with the dire straights our team faces for lack of showing up in the first half it really leaves them no room for error.

Losing at BSU will probably be not good in the PWR.

Maybe what he means is that once MN has clinched the conference title, all of their games become meaningless (like third place games) and we know how the Gophers perform in those games. :whistling:
