I will gladly trade someone my CC/Simon Fraser tickets for your UND/Minnesota tix.

They’re not all phishing though. -I clicked on one and have been awarded a million dollar gift from the King of Nigeria!

I might be in the minority but I miss the old days of Mazzocco and Woog. I just re-watched the 2010 Final Five games with UND and have fond memories of setting the VCR back in the early 2000’s and recording the UND/Minnesota or CC/Minnesota games on the Midwest Sports Channel and later on, Fox Sports North. Those two guys were clearly homers for the Gophers, as they should be, but always quick to give praise to the opponent when due.

I’d love to hear Jordan Schmaltz behind the mic if nothing else for the intermission analysis. That guy is really good.

Seriously. I always wondered what the non-Ivy’s in the ECAC thought about the difference between them and the high brow Ivy’s who played fewer games. It’ll be late October and UND and everyone else has had 2-3 weeks of games under their belts while the likes of Cornell is playing their first exhibition game. Crazy.

Bring back the jelly donut! Ha ha! J/K

Don’t forget, “iron sharpens iron” too.

I re-watched the FF semifinal game and Bucci and Colby Cohen kept talking about how difficult Western made it for DU in the neutral zone, how aggressive the D and forwards were causing turnovers and puck battles at the red line. Also, just the mental toughness Ferscheweiler and his staff instilled in their players. Hope to see that return to UND as well.

So is Jackson purposely holding back on any recruiting news just to annoy us fans? J/K but seriously, lol…

Putting a C on a goalie’s sweater makes about as much sense as putting an elevator in an outhouse.

I’m getting fired up for college hockey to begin! My wife thinks I’m nuts. I’m re-watching that Frozen Four semifinal game between the Broncos and DU. Man, what a classic. I’ve watched this game three or four times now. To think how damn close Western was at various stages of the overtime to have lost that game and had that awful taste in their mouths for the rest of their lives.

When Robson opened, they announced a cashless experience. My guess is, they weren’t the first and probably won’t be the last. I’d like it if cash were still an option but it isn’t and it isn’t going to change anytime soon. It’s probably more about speed and efficiency for the concession workers to get through the customers standing in line. I do my part to help them by buying my Mike & Ike’s and Lemonheads at Walgreens before the game.

The jerseys that say ‘North Dakota’ take me back to the early 90’s. The teams weren’t very good and they’d just removed the classic Chicago Blackhawks Indian head logo which I was pretty bitter about. Am I correct in my recollection that those teams didn’t have much trouble scoring goals but sure couldn’t keep them from ending up in the back of our net as well?

The irony isn’t lost on me that I can’t stand DU while watching them play UND but I respect the hell out of their last four coaches-Frank Serratore, Gwoz, Monte, and Carle. They’re definitely ambassadors of the game.
