Hockey is a religion here. That first penalty was toal bullsh*t against Poolman (Grand Forks boy) in the frist period. And another iquestionalble n the 2nd. That gave Boston the moment they needed. The Sioux battled back in the 3rd. It just wasn't enough. Losing MacMillian to and broken kneecap blocking a shot about a month ago didn't help. Still proud of the team.[:)] A few idiots around here want coach Hakstal out.[8|] In his eleven years years. 11 playoffs. One runner up in seven Frozen Four's, add also four regional. Best ever in that time frame in college hockey.[:)] Seven national titles since 1959, third best.[:)] Most conference titles of all college hockey, fifteen.[:)] A little down, but there is next year.[:)] Like ESPN say's "It isn't the Frozen Four if North Dakota isn't there".[:)]
Plus the NHL keeps snapping up our players after one or two years. The NHL calls us the cheapest farm club in the NHL. And so it goes.[:)] But hockey East is getting stronger. NCHC is still the strongest. But how long is this going to last? Or has it already arrived?
With the oil, we finally went past the 700,000 population mark. First time since 682,000 mark in 1936. Grand Forks was the 2nd largest city. Looking at dropping to 4th at 58.000. Fargo, Bismarck, Grand Forks and Minot. Respectively. Still a great place to live. Went to Best Buy today after work. I went inside for about 20 minutes, left the keys in the ignition and windows down (55F today[:)]), no worries.[:)] As we say "-35 below keeps the riff raff out."[:)]
