Yeah. My browser didn't update the site in time. I've edited my post now to correct my error.

Yes!!!!

Depends if he liked winning more at SCSU or being paid more to be .500 at Minnesota

Did the Gophers dress their third goalie?

Well dang. Now I'll have to wait until Friday to smack talk my gopher brothers.

I must be watching a different game. Evening going into OT these guys are doing great. I think they only allowed 1 shot on goal in the 3rd.

I agree. There's a clear #1 here IMO. Honorable military service, provost of one of the most prestigious academic schools in the nation and pro-sports. Bring in the general.

But we won...why would we drop 3 spots?

We should have kept it to make a new rivalry trophy

I liked Weatheby's performance too. Definitely could have won in regulation of the officials hadn't blown that goaltender interference call.

That should have been a penalty instead of a goal

The AFROTC cadets who pulled the nets out for the kickers used to do that. Not sure if the tradition lives on.

You can cherry pick matchups if you want but we've all been through these hypotheticals before but it still comes down to three things 1. We have good rivals in both conferences. There will never be a perfect conference thanks to the Big Ten. 2. Big Ten won't be inviting anyone until they know what Illinois is going to do. Not to mention any other actual Big schools. 3. The NCHC is the best conference in hockey hands down. No one is leaving the SEC for old rivals.

I suppose I could have worded that better. But recently yes. Especially if you exclude Wisconsin and Minnesota. I don't think we should leave the NCHC and forgo the majority of our rivals just so we can play those 2 teams more often. A Big Ten offer would have to extend beyond just hockey for me to be interested.

Amazing that some people still think the Big Ten carries the same weight in College Hockeybad it does elsewhere. It lacks the power and tradition. Maybe someday it will those but for now it falls short. We have more history and rivalry against the WCHA, and some Hockey East teams than the Big Ten, excluding former WCHA members.

It was nice to see them execute some plays and set up shots rather than just take the first possible shot. I for one am happy with their performance this far as will the pairwise.

Yeah. Last year we ended the season at .667 which was the best in the NCAA. Currently we are 2nd with .620 and the Big is currently leading the NCAA with .641. There is something to be said for Big's weaker strength of schedule, but as a conference we could have done better. Hopefully we pass up Big Ten by the end of the year.

I concur with your edits

It only there only there was some reason for this that could be explained by science...

I think the NCAA has too many dumb rules about how many sports schools need to have and at what level(s).

Don't call me Shirley

Did the committee know that they could use Google to research these people? About half of them didn't even warrant a phone call.

Both of my brothers are rodents so they are definitely the biggest rival to me. Come to think of it, so are my parents but they are a different kind (BSU) and they usually cheer for UND except when we play BSU. Beyond that, I have cousins that have gone to Mankato, UMD and my Grandpa went to SCSU so pretty much any game against a MN team is some sort of rivalry for me.

I've always though that the AF and the WCHA would make a lot of sense as while. Unfortunately I think SiouxVolley is right. They are happy where they are at.

I've heard that ice is slippery
