Cratter

You old people and thinking mid 30s is young! Better get use to us...we are not only smarter and more successful but better looking. (dont worry i'll soon be thinking the same as you in 10+ Years) I think I had a quote on here "back in my younger days": 20s in young to 30, 30 is young to 40s, 40s is young to 50's, 50's is young to 60 etc....and unless you're about 90 anything is "young."

What's next the University of Manitoba in college hockey?

Luke will have a nice long career in Europe.

Ditto, as previously mentioned, I think it'd like Black better vs gray.

Make that three nattys now with stellar first half of the season.

Welcome to yesterday.

No dice in the game, but I believe a Big Sky split has always been the "grand plan" one at FBS and one at FCS....so a divisional split only makes the likely hood more likely.

Sorry but avoiding Mankato State (and other less qualified schools) is the exact reason the NCHC was started.

One would have to think with UND not mentioning anything about cutting or delaying research spending (as far as I can tell) and NDSU basically only saying they'll delay research dollars (with barely mentioning anything else), they truly seem invested in increasing their research category (which means one would assume that's where all their discretionary spending is going) to get prepared for a hopeful FBS football conference invite.

oh yeah "delayed."

And while UND cuts sports and educational programs....NDSU so far has said we'll just not spend so much money on research?

Was it not focusing on beating a rival? Was it being battled tested in a great conference? Was it the new coach? Was it the renovated Ralph? #UNDwilllsoonhavethemostbannersincollegehockey

Tis the off portion of thy season.

Tis thy not October found? (nice try but not well played Cratter)

Well played!

Correct usage is so 1609. Ever read Shakespeare? You want to be really correct the phrase is " “to all intents, constructions, and purposes,” #onesisoldschooloneisnewschoolilikenewschool #dictionaryalwaysaddingwords

Actual scenario: "Hey Cam, you started this season letting in three goals on three shots....." Cam realizing he is being asked that question after winning a championship letting in one goal, cracks a smile and replies.... "I guess its how you finish, not how you start." Classic.

I noticed Drake had said he has been a Sioux fan and wanted to play for them since he was 12 (pretty incredible growing up outside Toronto and IIRC was) after watching Toews in the World Juniors.

Sometimes we all have to ask ourselves, "Does what I'm about to post really add anything to the conversation?" before hitting the Submit Reply button..... And then hit it anyways like I always do.

If they added another smart money would be on BG.

Every year North Dakota, for all intensive purposes, will be one of the top teams of college hockey without trying...rebuilding at North Dakota equates to something like missing the Frozen Four by one game. No one knows the future. Wouldn't be surprised if UND struggled in a few games next year. They appear to be even younger than this year. But with Cam in net anything is possible.

Because it's unofficially official. Presidents aren't voting til next month but straw polls have them in.

I like that the NCHC is living up to its name with ASU addition.

Certainly crossed my mind.

I'd stay at 9.
