how are these players and coaches connecting pre-portal opening? Are there middlemen/agents? Or straight-up tampering?

bumping this. We need to discuss why Carle keeps getting all the big programs outside NCHC on his schedule and UND won't schedule them (except MN).

Was this true this year too? And if so, why didn’t Michigan discipline him. that’s the thing with some of these programs like Michigan / BU etc. tons of elite players but it doesn’t translate to winning in NCAA tourney if they don’t get buy in.

Not sure what happened to thread on no conference schedule (mods must have deleted) but we need to get some better programs on schedule. heard Michigan and Denver are playing eachother in future. Come on Dane, get Michigan, BC, BU in rotation.

So bad fit for us system wise or Michigan coached him better ?

What are the best frozen four sites for those of you that have attended a bunch? the ones I usually hear as favorites: - Boston - St. Paul - Tampa not sure how Vegas compares. Of course the frozen four has also been in Detroit, St Louis, Philly, Washington DC, Buffalo, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Denver, Milwaukee, Columbus, Albany, LA area to name a few.

Watched Michigan coach speak on Jayden Perron. - called him a student of game and hockey nerd - “learned how to be a hockey player this year” Suggests to me UND staff wasn’t getting as much out of him. Do we know why Perron didn’t work out here?

If so I could see it as a regular. fun city easy to get to. There aren’t a lot of good warm weather destination spots where you can also walk around.

For people at Vegas frozen four, how is the city doing hosting? Is it as good or better than Tampa as a destination location?

here's a question...assuming UND doesn't win it, whats the order of Frozen Four teams you would prefer win the title from most tolerable to most annoyed if they win?

how is Brad on top of everything? 😂

This is about the biggest possible Frozen Four you could come up with. Destination city. 3 MASSIVE fanbases (UND, UW, UM). UND and UW for instance have been #1 and #2 in college hockey attendance for years with prideful sports cultures. Michigan probably has the most iconic college sports program across all sports (Maize and Blue, Big House, alums everywhere). The only bigger line-up would be exchanging Denver for Minnesota (large fanbase & MN) or BC/BU (to get the east coast & MA engaged). If you said, come up with the biggest possible F4...it's UND, Michigan, Minnesota, and dealers choice of Wisconsin/BU/BC.

No Gophers in the Frozen Four. So not all bluebloods. 🤣

Regarding Mercyhurst, were we supposed to play them at their rink next year (home and home because we played them at Ralph this year)? And if so, any ideas who we could replace them with?

saw this online on social media platform.
