Yeah we had a Denver fan this weekend. I was a little surprise. I think Steve Foss is a Badger fan when not playing North Dakota. I guess he doesn't count. I hope to see other fans on here representing.

Just so you all know... I will put it in writing. I AM THE BIGGEST SIOUX HOCKEY FAN IN MINNESOTA! A big fan of their coaching staff through the years and always the hardest hitting team in college hockey! I was even fortunate enough to share a conversation with Sioux Legend Coach Blais at the X last weekend. A very important moment in a Sioux fans life smile

Kind of funny how it started... Grew up near St. Cloud and went to all the Huskies games before D1 was even a conversation. So the Gophers weren't my team outta the gates, but since the Huskies weren't playing against them yet I rooted for everyone else... Then I began to see the stlye of play UND put forth. That was it hooked at the age of 7, now 25 years later it keeps getting stronger! Even went to college in Mankato and rooted against my own school smile. I have some family in Winnipeg so the Canadian players are all good with me... I sure hope they can put together a Tourney this year the last six have been a nightmare!!!

Yup, a good goalie in the NCAA's is like a get out of jail free card. Unless you have 3 lines that score night in and night out, you almost need that hot goalie to bail you out when you can only squeak out 1 or 2 goals.

I visited with Blais just for a minute. Is it just me or is he a little intimidating? Seemed like I was talking to more then just a college hockey coach. Hard to explain.

I came out asked if he was going to save the Gophs.....a chuckle is all I could get.

Yes Brooks, I am still big time.

Jag, I cant believe you have been confused and brain washed for 25 years. That sounds like permanent damage now.

My wife just asked me "Are you looking at fishing porn again?" She just rolls her eyes. She would really be mad if she knew I was only here for the hockey forum right now. I think she is afraid of hockey - she doesn't want her kids to grow up and play for the gophers!

For Goodness sake, please get Blais and Guentzel to make their case to Maturi. Someone has to talk some sense into that man. You are kind of big time, hope you can still hang with the little people that got you there smile

I'm still try to find a way to get the wife to rub my back while I type on here.....she's still at the stage where she turns the computer off on me though. Yah, she found out I was on talking hockey and fishing and was pretty mad. Darn wives.

If I run into blais at the 4 I am going to recruit him to coach. If uno is there id have to lay off tho. I don't think he'd like that.

CBrooks, if you're in NoDak, the games are on ABC - WDAZ/WDAY, etc.

If you're not, PM me and I'll tell you the "work around" for ESPN3.

PM sent. Thanks Shorelunch. Grand Forks is getting the RPI game but ESPN wouldn't give the local rights for the winner of that game should UND win. That one would be on ESPNU. I think the UMD game is on ESPN3 today at 2 PM. If I get a streamline and anybody at work needs a link just asked. I'll PM you. I'm ready for some WCHA whopping up on some Ivy schools. Go Dogs.

Well if your in Grand Forks there isn't a possible way to get streamlining direct from ESPN 3 or ESPN360. I tried going to there HSOforum to sign up and it would have been good but if your cable company(internet provider) isn't affiliated with ESPN(there's over a hundred that are)you can't get it. I think there's only four cable companies that aren't affiliated with ESPN and Grand Forks is one, midcontinent, they have the monopoly in GF. I bet the "Justin TV" will have it smile

I hope for the WCHA whooping up on ECAC, but I seem to remember the Dogs having to score 2 goals to tie up and eventually beat Princeton within 40 seconds of regulation. And I seem to remember Yale doing a number on you know who last year. So I'm a little guarded.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 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.
