UND 2009-2010 Season Thread - The Lawnmower and Cookie tossing edition!

Nelson might be better off not winning Mr. Hockey. It lead to Brian Lee being hated by moron Sioux fans and we all know what happened to Pelawa. Not a good track record.

Disappointing result last night, but the fact of the matter is, the team still has an opportunity to make the NCAAs. While I would love for UND to be a dominant team this season, it just doesn't look like that is going to happen. If you make the NCAAs, you have a chance.

If you look at recent history, barely making the NCAAs sometimes leads to great post-season play.

2009: Miami, barely made the NCAA Tournament, and wound up within a minute of winning the National Title
2008: Notre Dame, one of the last teams in, and made a run to the National Title. Also, Wisconsin barely made the tournament and nearly knocked UND off to go to the Frozen Four
2007: Michigan State, barely made the tournament, and wound up winning it all.
2005: North Dakota was on a skid in January/February (went 4-6-2) and then pulled it all together to get to the National Title Game
2004: Denver, didn't make it to Final Five, barely skated into the NCAAs, and got on a streak and won it all.


Saying that, if North Dakota doesn't get things together quickly, they will be watching the NCAA tournament on TV. A win tonight would be huge.

They can still do it. Territorally they haven't lost a game yet. Its that darn scoreboard that is causing all the problems.

The biggest winner this weekend is whoever plays st cloud next week. The sioux were hitting them like crazy last night.

Since winning the F5 isn't going to happen, they will need to climb back into the top 14 in the Pairwise. I think to do that and make the tournament they will need to win 5 of the remaining 7 games. That's not impossible, but it probably means a win tonite, take 3 of 4 against UMD and CC and sweep Tech.

I know this kid Hak should recruit for sure; he could bring a ton to the table.

One time he got drunk and rolled a bowling ball down a street on a huge hill and it smashed into a bunch of cars park on the side. In high school he smashed and light mail boxes on fire. He has an amazing 4 DWI's already such a young age. He can drive a snowmobile with the best of them and is really good at hitting people in the back with sticks when they aren't looking; because he isn't strong enough to win a fight man to man.

To top it all off he is orginally from Canada and 22 years old already. Could be the next Sue great!

Welcome to the board! You obviously bring a wealth of hockey knowledge.

wow...um...that was just bad...

Great win for the boys last night! Wow, what a performance! Frattin gets on the board twice, 4 pp goals, a 4 point night for VV, and Eids makes some good saves.

:cool:
 
Re: UND 2009-2010 Season Thread - The Lawnmower and Cookie tossing edition!

it was a good game by the Sioux last night. I saw the first 4 goals. I was celebrating VD with the wife and family last night, so we watched a movie. Pretty nice to see they can get some PP goals this weekend, and score more goals in one night than they have the last few games combined. Hopefully they can keep it up the remainder of the season.

Well, the top 15 has a good chance to make the NCAAs as Bemidji State is currently T-4th (unless they lose in the CHA tournament).

Since we won last night, we merely have to split with UMD and CC and then sweep tech to win 5 of our last 7. But I agree, anything less than splits with UMD and CC and a sweep (or at bare minimum 3 points) of Tech and we most likely have to do at least some damage at the Final Five.

Hopefully last nights performance spills over to next weekend, and we can sweep UMD (considering that we probably should have when we played at UMD).
