Taking care of business

The Sioux did what they were supposed to do this last weekend, sweeping the Mavericks and earning their first conference sweep of the season.

I watched the game Saturday night. I was very impressed by what I saw. Even though the team looked like they were going to fall apart after having a 3-1 lead, they stuck with it and won 3-2.

Up next is a series that should mean a lot more than it feels like. The Sioux head to Engelstad South to play the Gophers. Maybe if these two teams were 1-2 in the WCHA, this series would have so much more meaning. Instead, it's the battle of a team that is disarray and a team that has given up way too many leads.

More to follow this week.
