Dane, in your experience, does the most reliable information come out of Joe Black’s or Judy’s?

Better than going to MN I guess.

Sorry if this was said, but UND’s #1 priority is finding centers and it’s not even close. We are sitting decent on the back end but we badly need forwards, especially up the middle

Just added it and have it on. Thanks for the heads up. Greatly appreciated!

Part of me wants to get a message on Thursday reading: ”Head Coach Jackson is currently unavailable to complete the press conference as previously scheduled. He is deep in the trenches of talking with CHL players and coaches, potential recruits, and players in the portal. He has not slept in the last 72 hours due to rebuilding a roster. If anyone is willing to sponsor 2 weeks of Red Bull to keep his momentum going, please contact AD Chaves for drop off. Thank you”

We have a winner for comment of the day. Bravo

Listen RJ Enga, you’re not fooling anyone with that profile handle.

I believe the tension was released a few pages back during the male enhancement discussions.

Not sure why I get a hit of dopamine when gf makes a brilliant and coherent comment without spelling or grammatical errors. Gives me hope and light during these dark times.

I’d rather lose my best guys to the NHL than have my best guys portal out. Guessing Bob already has guys locked and loaded from the portal since he knew most of those guys were going pro.

It seems like the reputation has been getting slaughtered the last few years and now we are seeing it's scary results. I don't care what a lot of people say about Omac. He was still our assists leader while playing in the wrong position; he could have had a great senior season if playing as a center.

I kind of want at least one from the portal and not just the CHL. Because from the portal they've at least had a year of NCAA under their belts; unless we are talking a really good CHL player and not someone that's adequate. I know the CHL is good but NCAA has more men in it. But couch coaching hasn't made me anything yet so I might be completely off-base haha.

I hate to say it but I have this eerie feeling that Zmolek will get injured in the first half next year. Not sure all of his surgical parts can withstand the game.

So many people here assumed that he would totally take the job if offered just because we are UND (and it was a bonus his wife was a UND grad) which is ridiculous. He’s been at auggie for 2 years, has a brand new rink, has money backing the program (obviously not as much as UND) has already had success building a team from the ground up and is likely to see that through further. Then there are non-coaching aspects like laying roots down and just getting plugged into life there as a family. We needed to get a grip and read the room that the likelihood of him coming was and is minimal. But our desire for him spiraled into assumption undeservedly. In conclusion, It should never have been a surprise that he isn’t interested.

Still surprises me so many people thought we could just magically drag him away from what he’s building in a great situation. But that was like 3 days and 500 posts ago when I gave my feelings on that matter lol
