Isn't the fact it's taking so long the definition of "inconclusive?"

Anybody else watching on NCHC.tv and seeing the picture quality particularly poor? It almost looks like it's the wrong aspect ratio, too.
Yep. It looks like they are pulling the FCS non-HD feed instead of direct from Midco

I was in and out of the broadcast last night; but the play of the game/turning point for me was in the first when Duluth was getting set to go on their 5x3 PP. Stecher was forced to take the draw after LJ was tossed. He immediately drew a penalty after working his butt off at the drop of the puck. The 5x3 goes to a 4x3, and consequently we go into the intermission with a 2 goal lead instead of it being 2-1 (or worse) and Duluth carrying all the momentum.

How did we not get the Generals little brother ?
Are you asking if we lost a recruiting battle? I don't think he was a recruiting target.
-
So whats new?
When you graduate a class like last year's you have a lot of returning forwards put into new roles.
-
The NCHC is basically replacing the first two shooters of the shootout with a 3x3 OT session. The shootout portion then becomes "sudden death," and can end after the first shooters.
-
So OT will be 4 on 4, then a session with 3 on 3, and if necessary a shootout. Why not just have a hardest shot competition?
Actually I believe the first 5 minutes of OT will be NCAA standard 5x5, not 4x4.

I believe the bigger mistake is trading away Hamilton. He's a top four defense guy.
I agree 100%. Sweeney ended up making a good situation out of the Lucic deal. I wasn't too happy with it at first, but it's been rumored for a couple years that he might be traded. For what he ended up getting for Lucic in the end, that's a good deal.
The Hamilton trade on the other hand, and how the draft unfolded with picks 13, 14 and 15...........UGH!
They mentioned on NHL network last night that BOS offered 6 years somewhere around $5.5 AAV to Hamilton, and he ended up signing for 6 and $5.75AAV with Calgary. It's possible the writing was on the wall that Dougie was looking for a change and they got what they could. The money wasn't that far apart.

We play way too many schools from that state for it not to be brought to their attention if we chose it. I for one would think it would be more embarrassing to steal a rival state's nickname over that of a local high school.
If we were the North Stars maybe we could get an invite to the mid-season college hockey tourney at the X named in our honor!
Roll Ridas!

Fire Berry?
Simple question.
Actually, the simple question should've been....
Hire Berry?

I was actually pretty stunned to not see "Fighting Bruins" submitted as a nickname by 3-4 posters here.
I'd love to see Hak win a Stanley Cup as the Flyers' head coach.
Not gonna lie...I'll be rooting for the guy as well.
-
Soooo...now that the dust has settled. Have any UND fans now adopted the Flyers as their new favorite NHL team?
Don't worry, this place will still be all things Bruins.

I think that's the place. Been a while since I've been to GF - store closed a long time ago, right?
Yep, it has been a while. I wanna say mid to late 90s.

It was located on the east side of the road in a strip mall.
Columbia Sports?

Or are you limiting it to on-ice moments?

In that same vein, Michigan losing to BU in '97 worked out pretty well for Blais.And no knock on Sandelin but he'd likely agree, what "worked best" for him in 2011 was the Sioux losing "cus of Haks coaching" (give me a break) to Mich in the opposite semi-final.
-
Anything is better than those clowns they had doing the 2000 NCAA title game. Man, I half expected them to fight over who gets to take Doug Flutie out to dinner!

Jack Edwards is awesome, obviously, because he calls Bruins games on NESN. Not trying to turn this into a Bruins thread...really...I'm not.

On a side note...during one of NESN's broadcasts of "The Instigators" this past year, Jack went on a mini-rant about how he thought the Fighting Sioux logo was the best in college hockey and how it was a crying shame we had to give it up. Loved it!

Yes. What was the call on the ice?Rodriguez should be suspended for the final.
-
The question is do the boys have what it takes to pick him up. He's the reason they're here. If only we could've turned the early 2nd period pressure into a 2-2 game...I love Zane but this team lived and died by him this year and those two soft goals are the difference right now.
-
It seems like every year it's about "business." Screw that...I wish they'd focus on having fun.
-
The thing is, Zane has bailed this team out all season. Time for our big guns on offense to pick him up. We just suck at putting the puck in the net.
-
My only hope now is they're sandbagging for the 8th spot and the Metropolitan bracket. Gotta avoid Montreal!

Does anyone know if any of the other MN schools have ever tried to bid for a regional at the X? Why is it always UMN's regional? Why not Duluth...SCSU....MSU....BSU? Is it simply a matter of the X making the call on which school they place a bid with?
