Kind of unfortunate they couldn't make it a Saturday evening game, but you've got a 4 plus hour trip for both teams after a Friday night game that wouldn't get them on the bus and out of the building until 11 or 12. Hopefully Sunday in St. Paul draws 10k plus.

I've never been a fan of the NTDP games. Its cool to watch that team play when they are at the world championships, or playing against other schools, but it always seems like a go through the motions type of game for UND against a team of kids that commit to Big Ten or Hockey East schools. I'd rather see them make Bemidji an exhibition each season. Play them once early in the season every year, rotate it back and forth.

Wish Hedquist well if he is indeed heading to the portal. Never took the net, and with his body of work you needed to bring in other goaltenders to compete to be the man. In a perfect world we aren't needing to use portal goalies after next season.

If Hedquist leaves you bring in Sandy as the #3 and we've got us a goalie tandem.

Wilbur approves of this move.

Spunar up for USHL goalie of the year. UND in the hunt I'm told.

From Schloss today it sounds like Heil is going back to Madison next year, and Huson won't be with the team. The Czechian kid that played for Dubuque intrigues me. Good size, and turns 21 in May. Think about those who will argue about the 25 year old Czechians in our lineup in four years.

All but one of those title games had an NCHC team.

Congrats to Western! Very well deserved. Their fans that visit the forum are good guys. Well done Broncos.

Not a loaded forward group by any means, but give me a Strinden, a James, a Littler, all day long. Maybe Croal will get more time now instead of us hearing excuses as why Montgomery dressed instead of him.

I've told many people that I would've never been able to forgive Trevor Olson.....

That Denver-Western game reminded me of the 2016 UND-Denver semifinal. It was all UND for most of the first and the second and then the third period a switch went off and Denver was the better team, tied it with under 5 to go, and very easily could have won it late or in OT. Western should have been up 3 or 4 goals going into the third and before you know it its a tie game, Denver is pressing them, and Slukynsky is needing to use his size to get hit with pucks through some traffic. Happy with the outcome yesterday and with the outcome in 2016. Credit to Denver for battling their way back into that game. (Davis has no eligibility left correct? )

Davis, while very good, also has a horse shoe in his breezers somewhere.

Western will kick themselves if they blow this one. Controlled the game for long stretches. 2-2..

That has to count.

Denver is turning the game right now. Western has to get through the last six minutes here. Play in Denver's end a bit.

This game could be 4 or 5 to nothing the way Western is playing. Denver still with hope though.

Score a goal, keep your foot on the gas.....weird....

Chyzyk to be forever remembered for jumping on the "Heavy" line when Luke Johnson went down at the Frozen Four and the line was excellent against Quinnipiac.

Jax at the Force game tonight.

Car washes too right?

God I hope.

I'm wondering the same thing. I mean the scholarships that they have last through the end of the semester, so I'm sure that UND would have to keep them fed at the very least. Boisvert would be in the dorms as a freshman until May, but Perron and McLaughlin likely in an apartment or a house off campus. I know that some schools like Colorado Football with Coach Prime completely shut off their facilities to players that enter the portal, as they aren't technically in the program anymore.

Appreciate you taking your time to post this information on the board. Much appreciated.

Big to see EJ, Zmolek, and Livanavage all there. D corps should be difficult to deal with. I heard a lot about the offers Emery had to leave the university, so its nice to see a kid with his talent levels is behind Jax. In the video I believe I saw 16 players there. I think Montgomery is the one with his arm in a sling, and you had Jammer there as well, but current team members are wearing polos or jackets I believe.
