    Just having Toews on the team is huge for experience and leadership, whether or not he wears the "C".

    I imagine he'll get an 'A.' Seems to me that it would be disruptive to downgrade Lowry.

    2 of those schools were supposed to be original members of the nchc until benedict fenton used his master negotiating skills to piss em off....

    Really? Which two and what did Fenton do to piss them off?

    yeah augie or msu gets an invite years ahead of bsu

    I love BSU and my parents went to BSU and I like to see them do well. 

    That said, there are a 6 teams I'd expect to see join the NCHC before BSU. It's nothing against BSU, but they are a small school that doesn't expand the geographical footprint and doesn't consistently play well. The same can largely be said be either Alaska school. 

    1. Notre Dame (pipe dream I know)

    2. Mankato

    3. Michigan Tech

    4. Lindenwood

    5. Augie

    6. Bowling Green

    The Big Sky didn't want us that bad.  The big boys in the league were happy but rest weren't so it was destined to die

    Wasn't that a cost saving measure as well. School was in a budget crisis so they wanted to save on travel costs.

    January is when it all changed for this season and when the admins starting thinking seriously of replacing Berry.
    The ASU weekend was turbulent and when the tension between Berry & Jackson kind of overflowed...rumor is that they almost came to blows.
    Then the horrible home weekend against WMU.
    Then the following weekend when the "Jammer incident" occurred during the bye week.

    The admins started hearing about these issues from players, staff, and team personnel.
    Players were not happy with how Berry handled the Jammer issue...Dane wanted to handle it in a different manner that aligned with what the players wanted as well.

    Berry is a great guy, no one is stating otherwise.  I think he got taken advantage of a bit with that and he couldn't make the tough choices, especially with this year's senior class, their playing time & roles, and the Jammer issue.
    By the time the season ended, the decision to replace Berry had already been made and had been in process for at least a month or more.

    What was the Jammer issue?

  6. I might be late to the party, but Berry needs to just preemptively start packing his office up when he gets home. There will be mass boycotts if he comes back next year and rightfully so. 

  7. Let's all pump the brakes on the annual "woe is me, the season is already over." This Beaver team is coming off a split with Minnesota, they're not the normal auto win we are used to. It sucks, but it won't tank our PWR. 

    ALL of other loses have come from quality teams that will likely be in the top 10 at the end of the year. Would have been great to win a few more of those yes, but our school almost always starts slow and finishes strong. They'll figure it out. 

     

    To be clear, I'm not saying to put our heads in the snow and pretend everything is fine and that Berry is a the perfect coach and it may be time to move on, but let's not give up on this season yet.

    Over reacting 

    Agreed. It sucks yes, but it's not like we got swept by Stonehill or some AHA team. CC has a decent team this year with a real shot to make the tournament, especially now. We got a few points out of the weekend and we are still in great standings for the NCHC and the Pairwise, nothing to freak out about.

    How is Minnesota State more compelling? They just lost their head coach and half their team, I wouldn't be surprised if they turn out to be a bottom tier team for a long while.

    I wouldn't count MSU out. They got a good coach hired and some talent inbound from the portal. 

  10. I don't understand the pull of St. Thomas. They aren't competitive enough to play in the NCHC right now. Minnesota State is far more compelling amongst the current teams available.
