      Quality is usually pretty good. I would say that it is better than most webcasts, at least college hockey ones. If you have Fox College Sports, or DirecTV w/sports pack, it will be on there (channel 617 on DirecTV).

        lots of super sloppy passes tonight but the w is all that matters this early... Kristo and Knight look like they are in mid-season form and Blood's wrister was a thing of beauty. Go Sioux!

          Yeah, the goalie was completely screened, but it was a nice shot. Hopefully the team continues to improve tonight. I'm sure Hakstol wasn't too thrilled with allowing 31 shots on goal. We already got at least one win, and hopefully they can get the sweep tonight.

            Tonight's game is on DIRECTV FCS but will viewed on Ch. 623.

              Nice to see the team with a W, and nice to see Brad do well between the pipes. We're going to need some good goaltending this year, especially early in the season, to rack up the wins.

                OK, so Eids lets in 1 goal in a 3-1 win. Dell lets in 3 in a 3-3 tie. Who starts next week?

                  I didn't see all of the game on Friday, but what I saw of Eidsness, he was very sharp. Dell played well, and made some key stops and crucial times. I'd go with the same rotation next week, assuming that all else is equal in practice this week.

                      Maine converted a couple chances Saturday that they didn't on Friday. Dell had no chance on at least two of the goals ... cross ice passes to a wide open one-timer.

                      Big question in my mind is how long will it take for us to improve our backchecking and own zone coverage ... Once we get that settled, we will be dang tough to play against. In the meantime its painful to watch.

                        It is nice to have two very good goalies - it would be OK to see them both play.

                        I will look forward to meeting you.

                        Hopefully the improvement comes in a hurry!

                          I'll take a win and a tie, it sure beats last year's result! 2-1-1 to start the season, against some quality competition, isn't bad. Hopefully this team can build from here and improve over the course of the season. I really like that the guys were able to come from behind on both nights against Maine to get "points" (yeah, it was non-conference).

                          And what the heck happened with Michigan Tech/Wisconsin!?

                            I think the Sioux need to get back to their "winning ways" as well. This normally evolves over the course of a season as we have seen over the last few years. Perhaps a few trips here and their (just make sure it's not too obvious). Be careful not to be too abrupt with these cheap shots. Let the officials get used to the style of play so they will be less inclined to call a penalty. As the season progresses, add roughing and boarding to the mix. Most importantly, make sure that the opponents top player is taken out of the game early with an elbow to the head or even a checking from behind. P.S. (as in popsicle) Keep your shoes on!

I believe Saturday night's game would have produced more scoring if they had played a bit more composed in the defensive zone (not just the d-men but the Fs and Dell). Maine pounded UND last year but they were also whistled for penalties like checking, passing, and carrying the puck too quickly which I don't see happening this weekend. Also, with the exception of Mario and Nelson no one has quite grasped the "reckless abandon" style play our fanbase has become accustomed to watching.
                              Maine is a very tough team to play against and they have a lot of skilled players, this past weekend's game were character. Sioux (us) need to give Maine some credit, they could have won both games and a young team took 3 of 4 points this weekend. Not too bad...
