good thing the NCHC tournament is gone. Couldn't imagine how this team would continue the tradition of flaming out at the X.

some UND fans consider them our peer in the NCHC that is also somewhat likable. But I always remember Gwoz throwing his hands up in games and im pretty sure he ran across the ice once and got thrown out.

this is probably an unpopular opinion but F Denver.

Who is "they?' And what is your source for this assertion?

im sick of the "Michigan won't travel" stuff. They literally traveled to SCSU for a series. They've been to Duluth. They regularly go to the east coast. Its on our coaches to build relationships with these other programs. But I guess we can make excuses while ignoring the obvious that our coaches sandbag the NC schedule with a bunch of no-names.

Doesn't Denver not really have a great fanbase though? That's the one thing I'm worried about.

is Magness Arena worth visiting?

get BSU off the schedule. This is my annual rant. This could be a series against MSU, BU, BC, Michigan. And instead we pick BSU!

Am I the only who who has noticed a lot of teams will mock the UND fan finger point in air thing (when Chelsea Dagger is played) when they score against? I've seen a lot of teams doing it the last few years (both in the NCHC and out of conference).

Series Excitement for Me: Super Excited 1. Minnesota 2. Denver 3. BC/BU/Wisconsin/Maine/Michigan State/Michigan (if we would ever play them) Pretty Excited 4. UMD Meh to Not Excited 5. Rest of NCHC (with Miami & Omaha literally the least interesting of the rest) 6. Bemidji

Gopher hockey podcast lamenting Mariucci and Kohl Center being too big. Meanwhile, UND is selling out the Ralph still. I don't know the right size for a college hockey arena but they should have tipped their cap to UND. We will see if UND can keep filling the Ralph.

Berry was lazy and wanted to use the portal to solve his problems over finding hs talent.

no kidding. what the hell is wrong with the Denver fanbase? All that winning and they got no one cheering them on.

is UMD #3 for UND rivals now? 1. Denver / Minnesota 2. Minnesota / Denver 3. UMD

it didn't used to be this way for them. They used to sell out every night. For as much as people make fun of the Kohl Center being empty now, Mariucci looks the same most games.

why is Mariucci always empty? I thought they were an iconic franchise.

is UND on its way to becoming the Nebraska football of hockey. Big name blue blood that loses its prestige. So much money in Big Ten + NIL now.

how long until the Fire Dane people come out?

You like SCSU? It's such a boring town and lame atmosphere. Give me UMD for the cool energy around Duluth / harbor.

sounds like waffle house in the south or White Castle.

boring building, boring fanbase, boring city. Zero desire to ever go to that arena. Do we know what the UND players say is their favorite roadtrip? I feel like sometimes they ask the players. I imagine they say either UMD, Denver, or Western.

how about this for NCHC school roadtrips: Fun 1. Duluth 2. Denver 3. Tempe Ok 4. Western 5. CC Meh 6. Omaha 7. Miami 8. St. Cloud

Do they have any plans to get Wisconsin back on the schedule?

lets be honest Magness in game environment sucks. Denver needs to build a fanbase before they have the atmosphere of a big time program. Every time I've been its 60% UND fans.

I can't believe ESPN thinks Michigan State vs BU is a better game than UND vs Minnesota. They must think the casuals won't watch UND because it isn't a well known university.
