Can’t imagine any of the top coaches in the NCHC allowing that

Asked Mike McMahon if the extension was caused by a Big 10 team probing around but he hasn't heard anything regarding that. I'm cool with Penn State sticking with Gadowsky by all means hahah. Don't see them as a dangerous title contender until he's not behind their0 bench. That style of play he insists on coaching lead to them beating pretty much 0 high end teams this year if you go through their schedule.

2 thoughts on Dupont Likely slim odds we get him like others have said with Verhoeff being the top right hand D on the roster + running the 1st powerplay Overall if he does go to Denver at least he's in the NCHC and that's a win in the long term since it should attract other top picks to look at the NCHC and not just the Big Ten / BU+BC. The more it's a normal path the better it is for UND as those top prospects are likely only going to UND or Denver. The rich get richer.

The Ivey tidbit definitely was interesting. Fortunately, feel like that doesn't really compete with UNDs player type that they recruit, just not really paid internship personalities hahah. They'd rather work in the hockey world or maybe construction, real estate, etc something along those lines once they hang up the skates.

“No Gophers in sight” seems almost too nice with the ugly season they just had lol

Carels is 2026 draft eligible

Duluth finally gets called for all the interference/holds they always get away with. Refreshing

Only tweak is I would have it run Friday - Monday. If you do that people likely only need to take 1 day off work (either Friday or Monday

I despise the sit back neutral zone trap they often went to last night. Don’t find their brand of hockey that enjoyable when they are doing that. Now is it probably a smart system? Definitely, but not what I’d choose to watch night in and night out

I’m 50/50 on this. Definitely an obvious financial gain but now more and more people have mentioned they don’t really play a disciplined / structured game at all to get you ready for the pros. Even have been some talks that he could in theory go back to college but since he’s at Penn State there’s no point. He’s not learning many good habits so get him to the NHL is the thought process. Players / advisors are more wary of going there for their development than they were 1 year ago I’d bet.

Think some people were overthinking that game. Told my buddy in AZ to hammer the Wisconsin puckline. Wisconsin had some down games this year but I think some people forgot they also beat Michigan and Michigan state pretty handily in games this year.

On a similar note to this Princeton seemed to be holding their own against Dartmouth. Cool story for Dartmouth this year but really think they are a team that could get exposed. Princeton had a 5-3 powerplay that was tough to watch, not sure if they got more than 1 very lousy shot off. They're not playing any team in the NCAAs that's gona make it that easy on them. Wisconsin has some pretty nice odds to win outright in that game if you're in a state where you can bet.

They’ve been the poster child for a city benefitting from a new sports arena Host the summit league tourney there along with early season college basketball. Could see them hosting a basketball 1st round march madness regional there in the future as well.

Very similar game to Cagguila ironically. Sure that’s what Chyz thought when he saw him play

I think Steiner was definitely committed to us silently. The UND account didn’t “accidentally” begin following him like they do all their committed recruits. But obviously that changed once he got a contract in the Swiss league offered to him. Don’t blame him, that option likely wasn’t there when he committed to UND. Hard to pass up a pro contract in your home country. Think Chyz and staff had plenty of good backup plans in mind thankfully. Who knows, they might already have a silent commitment lined up to replace him.
