UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

Re: UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

This is going to be a long 2 weeks.

For those of us who are rival fans and have to work with UND grads, I assure you the next two weeks will feel infinitely longer to us than it does to you.

Was Dell highly recruited? Seems like he's come out of nowhere...

Maybe you should stay home then.

Unfortunately I already have my plane tickets, hotel room and frozen four tickets.

FWIW, I was in Milwaukee in '97 and Columbus in '05. The Sioux are 3-2 at the Frozen Four when I attend.

Re: UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

Dell played great this weekend (Regional MVP btw), but he was out of position and that allowed the goal to happen.

OK - I'll take another look. What I thought I saw was Dell getting his skate tight against the pipe, his knee flat on the ice and his stick down against a pass - all it good time. But the shot appeared to go just over his skate and bounce off his butt into the net. There was no sound at Sensers, so I missed the call.

I could be wrong, but I saw Dell getting his skate to the post just a tad late, and it bounced off his skate and in.

If there is one CCHA team I dislike, it has got to be Michigan though.

Everyone hates Michigan. No offense taken, we're used to it.

Yea, I feel bad for you. Not only do you have to talk v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y, you now have to listen to them brag.

Re: UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

This will be a better game than people think if Michigan plays as well as they did last night. The 2-1 score was deceptive, Michigan heavily outshot CC and if it wasn't for bad luck and great play by Howe it easily could've been a 4 or 5 goal win.

Burlon's status will be key, Michigan will need all their depth on defense as I expect ND will use the last change to keep Frattin away from Merrill.

Frattin fears no one. Merrill's soul will be in MMFF's possession as soon as the puck drops.

Re: UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

Is it wrong to root for the Zamboni to malfunction and release lethal amounts of carbon monoxide between the first and second periods?

Talk about a horrible choice to have to make, but Go Sioux, I guess.

Maize sucks!

As a UND grad who works with people who think soccer is the most exciting thing ever and probably don't even know what hockey is...I feel left out.

Re: UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

Eh I mean Frattin's good, don't get me wrong (or do, because you want to.) But Jaden Schwartz is pretty good too, and his line got more goals against BC than shots against Michigan.

[Dirty]

Re: UND Fighting Sioux vs. UM Wolverines

So your argument is now that BC sucks. That doesn't seem really all that relevant here but ummm, ok.
