  1. Pictures or it never happened.
  2. Fritz Jr's full name is: Fredrick Douglass Pollard Jr. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritz_Pollard_Jr.
  3. CC is night and day depending on if Cruikshank is or is not in the lineup. Single elimination makes them very dangerous with.
  4. "Hey, break's over. Get back in here. We have to finish the selections and this stuff won't drink and smoke itself. "
  5. My guess is the EERC's work with Minnkota Power on Project Tundra helped with some of the geologic storage concerns.
  6. I don't know what "it" is, but Bohl and Klieman had it and it even came through on television in interviews. And the new NDSU QB, he doesn't ooze "it" like Jensen/Wentz/Stick/Lance did on the field. NDSU may have come back to the rest of the Valley in those aspects, but they still appear to have that offensive line and a defense. But I still suspect this will be SDSU's year.
  7. I'm thinking SIU was a mid-pack MVFC team. What UND showed is they are better than mid-pack first time out. What's coming in is top tier. The test is coming.
  8. For refence, NDSU hoped for 10k versus YSU and only got 6400. Has the full appetite for live events returned? Until all 3k are sold, 3k is not an issue.
  9. Ice had just been invented and they were looking for uses for it.
  10. Four defensemen and two forwards with plus/minus at +11 or better at this point of the season ... ... and none of them are named "Kierstad".
  11. My worst goal (or not): A "three bell". I was at the blue line in a two-referee two-man crew. (Don't ask.) I saw the shot but was screened from the rest. I heard "pong-ping-pong" and signaled washout assuming pipe, crossbar, pipe. But the other official pointed and the goal judge light came on. We met and the other ref and the goal judge explained what I'd heard: The middle sound was the back bar, not the cross bar. Both had seen it. I had to explain my washout to one coach who wasn't happy and "said as much" to me. What gave me hope later is that coach's alternate captain skated past me and said it had gone in. We do not speak of the day I quit officiating.
  12. He looks like that thick (I think) lefty NDSU had about 15-20 years ago.
  13. Agree, and it's how you build a program.
  14. It was a far better than I expected debut; however, the real test comes Saturday. I believe SDSU wins the MVFC this year. (I would not be saying that if Lance was still in Fargo.)
  15. Because you asked for data: https://www.health.nd.gov/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/north-dakota-coronavirus-cases
  16. NDSU had 6400 yesterday per WZFG AM 1100 Fargo.
  17. Fee-ney! < clap clap > Fee-ney! < clap clap > Fee-ney! < clap clap > Fee-ney! < clap clap > ...
  18. Sunday, November 30, 1986 UND Winter Sports Building (not sure if was renamed yet) It's a rare Sunday afternoon game and the opponent is Yale. Unlike Friday where the Hrkac Circus had their way with UNH in a 10-0 victory, Yale is putting up a fight. It's not a full house (I have most of a row for me, social distancing before its time I guess). I'm in the student section, top row below the concourse so I have an awesome view with little glass obstruction of the goal. It's the second because Yale is shooting to the north and it's a close game (tied or one goal, don't recall but ... ). I watched Yale hit the old center vertical bar pad squarely and the puck come straight back out. The neither linesman was in position to see and the referee was screened by traffic. The shot came square and left square so the goal judge never saw it. No video in those days. I saw it. I heard it. Yale reacted like they scored. UND cleared the puck down ice. I knew what I'd seen and heard: Yale had scored. I even pointed "goal" at the north net (silly honest streak in me). No goal after the officials and the goal judge all chatted. UND went on to win 6-4 that day, but that goal may have made for a different outcome. As Dean Blais says, hockey is a funny game.
  19. If the schedule could have been easily changed (swap Omaha week for week) it should’ve been evaluated.
  20. It’s a strange year. Everyone must be flexible. No? And it wouldn’t be a whim; it’d be for the good of the league. Make team penalties hurt teams.
  21. Yes, a thank you note for saving UNO4 a major should be going to UND25. I also noticed UNO4 really didn’t want any of UND25.
  22. I “C” what you did there.
