Kunin's NCAA career is coming to a close depending on who drafts him. Won't take much to get him to go CHL. As for the tournament, it's as if friends and family didn't bother attending.

Plus the reigning NCAA lacrosse champs

Vesey writing that article about staying in college has to help his case.

Competing with a local NHL team (and ECHL team) is probably not easy either. They should market themselves as a more affordable alternative. DU stands to lose their biggest recruiting advantage as PAC 12 schools start up. Beau Bennett tweeted a tongue in cheek commitment to ASU. Moore probably would have considered it as well.

DU is a rich kid daycare for ski bums, I wouldn't expect the students to be engaged. Too bad the locals take their success for granted though. More and more hockey talent coming out of CO due to the Thunderbird program.

Once you've lived in Denver, moving to Minneapolis is a hard sell. Doubtful they have any fans within driving distance.

Both Kas and Cam have shown a weak side lately. I think the rival stepped up a notch with their guy getting punched on national television and the diving call adding insult to non-injury, we will hopefully relish the role of dashing their post-season hopes. They could be the biggest rivals for the current roster.

Wisconsin won after another article about their journey down the rabbit hole riled up the team.

Wisconsin looking good. Could be the opponent.

Refs missed a trip on the Gophers PP, goal moments later.

What channel is midco on directv/dish? Kidding.

It's not like this is a phenomenon exclusive to us. BU had it the next game. Zane laid an egg but also stole the regional from Ferris the year before. Too much negative affinity considering how well the team is playing.

D'oh. Can't believe I didn't think to do that. My justification is to break the spirit of those carrying an anti-Sioux sentiment.

Even up. Clearing the cache/history won't allow you to vote again, but different internet browsers and devices even if on the same IP/Network/Wi-Fi are allowed. Put six in, went from 42/58 on the first one to 50/50 by the last one. Bet there's an active campaign in the dorms.

I always thought of Summit and Grand as a neighborhood per a friend who lived in (on?) Summit Hill. He referred to it that way so I followed suit. Anyways, a good alternative to staying downtown St. Paul.

Get an Airbnb/VRBO on Summit and Grand and Uber/Lyft to the X.

Our non-conference opponents are all having a good night.

Vice News ran an article where they basically rewrote McFeely's piece about Sioux merchandise without his childish hyperbole. I'd link to it if I wasn't on mobile. Worth checking out.

Omaha will not make the tournament. Someone please tweet that.

Straw man with a hint of reductio ad absurdum. Trying to disprove a statement by altering it to the point of absurdity. Growing up in the cities I always preferred downtown Minneapolis to downtown St. Paul. Much more for visitors to do and easier light rail access from the airport. At least wait until the renovations are done at the Target Center before writing it off.

Having the tourney at the X is a recipe for disappointment. Target Center is a clean break from the lofty standard and expectations of the final five. Give them a few more years to get it together. Nostalgia is a powerful force and it's best to avoid it.

While the NCHC is definitely the premier conference for now, it does seem like it's only a matter of time until Miami and Western form a MAC-based regional conference again. With Alaska teams having an uncertain future as well, we need to enjoy what we have for the time being before further realignment takes place. I can see us losing the CO schools to a western schools conference when more start up.

Their fans were saying how they didn't need us and loved how it seemed like their new conference was going to harm us. Until we see some public crow-eating they will get zero sympathy.

Speaking of Rau, I would have bet Kristo got his cup of coffee first between the old frienemies (sp).
