I am so convinced that UND takes this series that I have planned a work junket during the F5 this year. It's not required, but a vendor boondogle that will include a Wild game in a suite at Nashville.

Boo.
Not going to any games at all regardless?

Normally, home ice would be a significant factor, and is certainly the most favorable condition for the Sioux this weekend. But there are some mitigating circumstances. First, the home ice advantage in the playoffs is usually muted, somewhat, by the fact that higher playoff ticket prices sometimes keeps students away who might otherwise attend a regular season game.

Next, I think UND goes on spring break this weekend, so many students may already be out of town. Also, it's a rivalry series, and home ice in rivalry series tends to have a less significant impact.

I thought the same thing until I searched ticketmaster yesterday...couldn't find 2 for either night. And I actually think prices are cheaper (not for students) than the regular season--lower and upper bowl were both listed as $17.50. I think lower bowl tix are normally $28...

much less than an UND player being arrested, or hakstool being classless. it goes without saying that some UND fan will put another UND fan in the hospital.

Don't say like that! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Chez Rube will be open both nights. As far as I know, I get no tape delay on Fri. No Senser's because:

A) Bad record for the Gophers when I'm there
B) Expenditures (due to the F5 the next week if and more importantly WHEN the Gophers are there)

The Gophers have a bad record no matter WHERE you are!

Anyone know if it's possible to subscribe to the Dish network channel for the weekend? May be at the in-laws, and I'm pretty sure they won't have it in their normal lineup...

Well as a Gopher fan I can say that droughts really suck and UND is on a little bit of one right now. The biggest one for UND was 16 years? 1963-1980? So, best of luck to you guys on not repeating that. Minnesota took 26 years to get their first one and 23 years between 1979 and 2002 so were a little more used to it than you guys are.

For the record, of all current wcha teams that have been in the frozen four a significant number of times (say, 10 or more), the gophers rank near the top in choke percentage. Even when the get in the championship game they tend to blow it.

I know everyone, even Happy, new this. But Happy comes from the camp of "If you tell an outlandish falsehood loudly and repeatedly, people will start to believe it". So here are the facts:


Team Frozen four choke % championship game winning %

Colorado College 80% 40%
Gophers 74% 45%
Michigan Tech 70% 42%
North Dakota 61% 58%
Denver 50% 70%
Wisconsin 25% 75%

For SCSU fans the "Frozen Four" requires at least one NCAA win.

I know, I know, lame as hell but fun nevertheless. Plus, I'm insecure enough I feel the need to deflect criticism and when I did it in my Dr. Evil voice it sounded kinda funny but it's really, really, lame. :D
