North Dakota will be wearing the new sweaters in the Regional. The Sioux head will not be on the sweaters or the word Sioux.

Go Sioux Go!

I voted for RoughRiders over flickertails. I know people outside of ND will think the name is overly gay and hearkens to brokeback mtn, but the legacy of Teddy Roosevelt and the park in Medora is something unique about Dakota.

also, the jerseys are just gonna have ND on them. Ralph is rolling over in his grave.

Good win for North Dakota. Didn't play their best hockey today. Must play better tomorrow to get to the Frozen Four.

Half of the Frozen Four is set.

East- Union
Mid West- Ferris St

Northeast- Boston College vs UMD...#1 team in the county vs last years National Champion
West- Rodents vs North Dakota...Two teams who hate each other....

Should be a fun day to watch some College Hockey.

Go Sioux Go.

Maine choked...haven't played in the tournament since 2007 and they choke. Hopefully Abbot gets the Hobey Baker award.

Born and Raised in NoDak Tiger2003

5:30 Minny vs. NoDak rematch. No doubt the varmits are smarting after that debacle in the WCHA final. Hopefully the Sioux are ready for a war. Game is on ESPNU, should be a great one.

Thanks. Your boys just didn't have it today but clearly still a lot of talent in Grand Forks.

GO GOPHERS. LET'S GO GET #6!

Love the WCHA but it is very hard to root for Minnesota and since they are gone for the Big Ten Hockey Conf.
