ringneck28 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Due to condensation on the basketball court @ the Target Center, there is probably going to be an unforeseen meeting between Thibodeau and Fenton. Maybe the hockey gods have spoken and said enough is enough. I would be willing to bet that there is a call going out tonight from Colorado Springs to St. Paul to see what the terms can be for moving this tournament back to its rightful location, with Tibs holding the phone for Josh. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I'd love to see the tournament go back to or rather go to St. Paul. I rarely missed a WCHA final five but I've yet to attend the NCHC tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just posted a comment in the Frozen Faceoff thread about this as well. The Timberwolves pay the bills over there and the NBA cannot be happy about this. Leave hockey to the hockey experts over in St Paul! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're to blame for UND sucking at the Frozen Faceoff. A true fan would realize they're the reason UND had success at the X and would go to the TC.

The only way a person should be in Minneapolis During St Pattys weekend is if you got so drunk you got lost and ended up there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ringneck28 Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 This just is more proof that Target Center doesn't get it. How many NBA teams share arena's with hockey teams and don't have these issues. Like I said, Tibs meet Josh and get this fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ice is down already, because the Target Center hosted Disney on ice this past weekend. Tibbs would have to convince the target center to eliminate all ice events.

I'm less of a fan because I won't: A) buck up for a full day kid-sitter for Friday and Saturday or B) drag the fam damily along and drop about $500 bucks on the weekend I'll go ahead and turn in my "fan" card I guess. Sorry I don't meet the minimum attendance requirements these days to get into the fraternity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't the first time that the ice has been down a few weeks before. Last year it was 2 weeks before tournament? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux hockey is the best Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Clearly the Target center doesn't work for hockey we all know this i wonder if there would be a small chance we could see a dip in ticket prices if they don't move it or we would expect a call saying its back at the X where it belongs.
