Hope Denver beats up on those broncos. Always a good day when that team from Kalamazoo loses at anything.

Pretty good first period in the first game

Congrats to Colorado. Now I will be cheering on anyone left from Hockey East.

Ouch. Screeching halt to Miami's try this year. I've seen these guys practice, it's intense. I was thinking this year would be different.

I'm a bit late to this party, but I gotta chime in here. Living in MN, I'm in enemy territory (I'm a UND Fighting Sioux grad). Went with the wife to the Final 5 (WCHA conf tourney) semi, and took the whole family to the final game. The Sioux seemed to just be playing with CC and Denver in those games. They came out in the NCAAs and have been on FIRE. 6-0 and 6-1. Wow! Of all the trophys they've taken home this year, they haven't touched ANY of them. They have only one goal and one trophy they want to touch and celebrate. It's been a mission for them since last year ended, and I'd say they're the favorite to win it. 15 game unbeaten streak. Dell is playing well in the net, and they have a TON of firepower, especially with Gregoire coming back for the NCAAs, and Kristo coming back for the Final 5. IMO, Frattin should win the Hobey this year (but I AM a homer there).

We might try to get tickets to one or both games (should they make it). It would be AWESOME to see them hoist the trophy in person in Rodent country.

GO SIOUX!!!!

They've had quite a few good NHL players come through there. It'll be interesting to see what Frattin does in the big leagues. Toronto holds his rights.

...and it continues tonight! Duluth vs. Notre Dame at 4PM Central, followed by UND vs. Michigan at 7:30. Not sure what to expect for the early game, but all the "experts" seem to be picking UMD to advance to the title game.

The second game (the one I truly care about) matches up the top two programs in the NCAA, in regards to Frozen Four appearances and national titles. The Sioux are led by a great group of seniors, and came into this season on a mission, with only one goal...win the game that will be played Saturday night. They come in white hot: 14-0-1 in their last 15 games, and have only lost 3 games since Thanksgiving. After a couple tight games in the WCHA Final Five, they REALLY turned it on at the start of the NCAA tourney, winning 6-0 and 6-1. Michigan is a good team, but isn't coming in on the streak that UND is on. They squeaked out a win in the first round, and played well in the second to beat CC. The Sioux seem to be able to play any style of game; tough, physical, and bruising or fast, skilled, and with an up and down pace. The key to this game is will UNDs depth show through. By all accounts, they have a ton of depth, and that has enabled them to wear on teams throughout the year. Key players have missed significant time this year, and that has only served to show off their depth even more. Can the seniors go out on top? Can their depth wear out Michigan? I hope that's the case. Should we win tonight, Erin and I will likely be searching for tickets to what we can only hope will be the crowning of UNDs 8th national title.

chand · 04-07-2011, 10:18 AM

All I can hear is "DU Sucks!!!" I think I went to too many CC games when I was stationed in the Springs. I have no rooting interest toady so I'll just have to hope for good games.

I think it would be a very large upset at this point if someone knocks off the Sioux. I think the only way to do it would be to score 5+ goals, and have a goalie who stands on his head. Should be great hockey either way!

04-07-2011, 07:20 PM

So the runner up had been determined. Duluth will take the 2nd place trophy up I-35 on Saturday night.

Puck drops in 10. GO SIOUX!!!!!

04-07-2011, 09:18 PM

Not pleased so far. Sioux are outplaying Mich, but Hunwick is standing on his head. 1-0 bad guys heading into the 3rd period.

fissure · 04-07-2011, 10:06 PM

Who would have thought the game would end up 2-0? Let alone michigan being the 2

Without Hunwick standing on his head, ND could have easily had 5 goals.

GO BLUE
