Piece of cake. They've been to the big dance...twice. This program knows its way around the block when this time of the season comes around. smile

Missed parts of it but seemed to be an interesting game to watch.

If BSU met UND, I would be cheering for good hockey. I am a beaver fan now more than a Sioux fan so I would be hoping for a Beaver win while knowing the Sioux is going to win. Either way it would be a good championship game for me.

So much for my green is good theory on St. Patty's Day. Didn't see the game but it looks like AA got handled. Maybe they wore the white jerseys and ruined it.

There's half of me that wants BSU to win this tourament. They must win this to go on to the NCAA. If they go to the tourament chances are they will face the #1 seeded team who will more than likely be Yale. BSU can absolutly beat those guys and take that region. I'm thinking a couple weeks down the road there but if they beat Denver and who ever they face tomorrow that will be there road ahead of them. Denver isn't playing there best hockey and UND I get the feeling is looking over this tourament. It doesn't mean alot to them. There looking for NCAA.

As a UND fan I want this win today to insure a #1 seed and keep everyone healthy. Last year they enter the NCAA tourament bang up from the Final Five. They played 6 games in 9 days when they lost to Yale the first game of last year's region.

Denver needs to start playing up to there potential. They split every conference game in Febuary. I feel anyone can beat this team. Michigan Tech managed. I say BSU beats these guys today.Go Beavers

I feel the exact same way cbrooks. However, if both BSU and UND square off tomorrow night, I don't know how BSU will get past ND - I can't see them giving the Beavers a free pass - and the way ND played against BSU this year . . .

woo hooo go Beavers!

I think BSU might just ahve what it takes to beat Denver but UND will be too much for CC and the Beavers although I would love nothing more then to see them beat the Sioux.

I like the beavers, id like to see them win but I just don't see this post season confidence you guys have. You make it sound like they are old pros inthe post season. In 11 years of cha play they old made the ncaas 4 times. That's not really an accomplishment. The cha is the easiest path there has ever been to the tourny.

I could see them beating du. Beavers looked decent yesterday. Part of me wants du to win though. Just seems like a better game, du vs the sioux.

Anybody have thoughts on cc and und. Cc looked pretty good yesterday. I don't think their style matches up to und very good, but maybe an upset.

The sioux aren't looking past the tourny. You know they would love to crush denver. I wonderf if the players would actually be more excited if the gophs and wisc were thre

I didn't watch all of the 2nd game, but it looked like AA played really tough. Physical play which should have made the game closer than it was. Sometimes it's the bounce of the puck, and that seemed to favor CC last night. CC obviously has more firepower, so I could see that being a better matchup against the Sioux.

Beavers v Denver should be fun to watch also. Go Beavers!

I agree. UAA controlled play the first period, but CC scored twice on four shots. UAA doesn't have the firepower to come back from two down.

Both games today should be fantastic. It will be interesting to see how DU comes out. They really have not much to play for and have been playing .500 hockey for a while. UND/CC could be a high tempo shoot out.

Boy can I pick 'em. 0 for 2 in yesterday's games. CC will be a better match-up today, Alaska looked terrible.

Congrats to the Beavers. I'm a Bulldog fan, but I'll be on the bandwagon today. They're definitely the fan favorite now, and would be a fun championship game with them and ND if it comes to that.

Well, off to the land of the $7.00 beer!

I think they have shown a lot more fight in a very short time span then a lot of other programs in the league. I know they took #1 seed Denver to OT a few years back and they you have the Frozen Four run where they beat very good Notre Dame and Cornell teams, they also didn't look out of place against Miami even the the score wasn't that close.

Then you throw in this little post season run they are on it is kind of hard not to think of them as one of those little cinderella teams that can pull off a big upset at any time. Not everyone can do this, how many times has St Cloud choked in the NCAA's? Mankato didn't put up much of a fight when they finally got invited. I really didn't think they were going to do much damage in the post season this year but they certainly proved me wrong. Now I wouldn't expect this every year but they might be one of those teams that no one wants to draw come playoff time.

I just get tired of the whole cinderella thing. Its just teams peeking at the right time. Its not like they are a bad team. They are a decent team playing some decent hockey. Hopefully they can keep it up. I just don't think they are underdogs. They beat a umd that has been pretty terrible as of late and I don't think uno was playing that hot. I thin the beavers are just better then most people thought.

As far as their frozen 4 run. Sometimes you just get a good draw and a fcew good matchups. I'm thinking the nancys in the east suck when you play a little physical and choke the lanes.

I don't know, a 10th place team who takes a two game series against a 3rd place team and then upsets a 4th place time kind of has that cinderella tone to it. Sure they have have a hard working team but these guys could only manage one point against the lowly gophers a few weeks back.

    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
