Let’s not bring up Jackson again. That would be as insane as extending Berry. We could be one week away from a hard reset this program so desperately needs.

Berry's roster decisions make no sense for both the short and long term. Year after year. It's incredibly frustrating.

Thanks for the reminder. That might have been the unluckiest team of all-time. Watching Senden, Hain, Ness and Albrecht fly around, the super sophomore class with Schmaltz and Kunz, cannot believe they didn't raise #9 that year with all that fire power. What could have been with a little luck.

Well, this is a bit embarrassing. Off the top of my head, I can't remember. They didn't make the NCAAs, which would have been caused by some sort of bad luck. Ran into hot goaltending all year? Anyone remember the narrative Berry pushed on Schlossman two years ago? All I know is Berry is due for some good luck!

I guess, but why not extend? This run of bad luck has to end sometime! Remember two years ago? Also, incredibly bad luck.

I feel a bit better that the excuse for not making the NCAAs for the 2024/25 season can shift to injuries. Never felt right blaming it on a young d-core.

Found this interesting. Some schools with offers that overlap with the players listed. NDSU 15, SDSU 7, Montana 5, Montana State 3, USD 1 The USD with 1 really stuck out. Also, with the 15 same offers with NDSU, UND offered first 8 times vs 7. Even balance, not like one team is offering and then the other team is shortly following up with an offer.

39 Current Offers. UND first offer 14 times, only offer currently 7 times. Aiden Wunderlich (Casselton, ND): UND, Montana, NDSU, Dartmouth Deshon Jenkins (Ft.

Same. Toss out a few clues @RhettRingers, age? Are we talking an elite school caliber?

Really do love posts like this. Last time if I’m remembering correctly, the player that was teased was Tanner Komzek. Can we get a current age of the player you are hinting about?

Jonny Brodzinski Can someone make a photo of Brad Berry morphing into Mike Eaves.

Not what you’re hoping to see if you dip into the CHL.

Either way works for me!

If I'm Sather, I'm trying to get back. Job security.

Everything on the line this weekend. All about home ice / avoiding Denver. Split is a good result. Anything more and although it won't matter for PWR, really continue to build momentum. Anything less and they are in a really bad spot.

What's so insane to me with the Forum guys is the genuine arrogance they have for covering NDSU. What's crazier is McFeely / Izzo outside of covering have no connection at all to the programs. Over the years, the Forum guys have become by far the #1 reason I despise NDSU athletics.

We really need to dig into that statement. To a certain degree, you're right. We need to change the word important to somewhat matter, which I think more accurately reflects the truth. Under Chaves, being average is not only acceptable, but gets you extended. The same goes for being somewhat below average. M/W B-ball sitting at 6th place in the Summit, will get high fives all around from Chaves. Berry finishing 4th / 5th and missing the NCAAs. Maybe not high fives, but ah, what can you do. Why I say, somewhat matter is accurate, is for change to happen, Chaves needs to see someone go full Bubba. It's damn near impossible given the support the programs get (which I will give credit to Chaves for) to go full Bubba. It does appear that M/W Basketball & Hockey will end up being average / slightly below, which means status quo. A month ago, it was looking like all three had a chance to go full Bubba, but they've all settled on being average.

Is there going to be a moment when the coaching staff realizes having two of your worst forwards (8/29) on your pp is a bad idea?

They are completely out of control on the offensive end, it’s legitimately embarrassing to watch.

Refuse to believe they are this bad.
