  1. I'm guessing he would've been offer sheet eligible next summer and they wanted to get ahead of someone offering then driving up the price. Seems like a risk to those on the outside but if he scored 50-60 points next year none of us would be shocked. He also has a good cocky aura about him which IMO Carolina desperately needs on that team to help push them over the hump if you're going to beat a team like Florida in the playoffs.
  2. I thought the "new timeline" phrasing was announcing that it was delayed but not the case actually so good to hear they'll be ready to play there in fall of 2027. The one big takeaway from reading about the new arena was grab and go stations where you just scan and pay yourself. Really hope the REA team can get these added soon. (would definitely help cut down beer lines). Texas has it at their new basketball arena and it works VERY smoothly.
  3. Definitely more of a fan of these than the previous version. No numbers on the front is a big improvement, like the simple design as mentioned above (better than throwing to much color etc on the jersey) , 90s throwback vibe with the "North Dakota" script. (For some reference I'm aged late 20s with family members that went to UND in the 90s and I think this jersey will appeal to both my demographic + that 90s demographic - maybe I'm way off though who knows haha)
  4. Speaking of injuries - seems that Laurilla might be banged up currently. (They replaced him with a different defenseman for WJC summer showcase today)
  5. Not to mention having games in a big metro area would objectively make it easier for any away fans to travel to games if they wish. The current model has almost no games played in a major city. (which in turn "should" make it easier for TV crews to get there - another big argument or Wodon's concerns about feasibility) ASU (Phx) / Denver / Boston schools / MSP (gophers) are all very possible hosts for NCAA games.
  6. The odds of games being played directly in the city of Boston would be pretty high based on BU / BC being consistently good (then throw in Harvard and Northeastern once in awhile). Having big time playoff hockey in that city would be great to showcase the game. (Same story with the gophers hosting in Minneapolis.) Making random people notice at bars before and after games in those major cities is a great way for people to take notice of the sport. BU and BC you could argue have actually been hurt the past 20 years for fan base growth because instead of playing it in their metro they ship the meaningful playoff games to random east coast locations.
  7. Pretty much anything that doesn't include the god awful hawk logo I'm in favor for haha.
  8. Ya he ran cam in the 2017 frozen face off ship. Wolanin made sure to get as many shots in on Pionk before the refs pulled him off
  9. Optimistic that Bryn is teasing an upcoming recruit tour in the next day or so…
  10. Armstrong definitely seems to be a pretty big fan of the NCAA route. Based on his comments it appears he is leaning towards not rushing Desnoyers development and having him put on some weight.
  11. Was curious to see how the staff ironed out chasing some high end recruits while having back up plans. Seems like they were upfront with him about the process which he seemed to appreciate
  12. Brampton was trying there best to put Martone in an awkward spot. They posted about him coming back there for a charity game event a week or 2 ago. (curious if they even asked him before posting that)
  13. If money was the swaying factor for Martone + with him very likely being a 1 year player those 2 factors may have turned off UND's staff. Desnoyers is an April birth date, slighter build, and could probably stand to use a couple years to develop in the NCAA in lieu of being 1 and done. He's likely going to the WJC showcase in MSP later this week (there was a note about him maybe being banged up so that's why i'll say "likely" . Hopefully he takes a stop in Forks before heading there and we can get him to commit on the spot after walking the ralph.
  14. So ... Why in the world did McKenna go to Penn state? Just gets more baffling as time moves on in my opinion.
  15. Was meant to be a bit haha. (Denver? never heard of them)
