Girls hockey needs more teams. It's been stuck at 11 teams for 7 years now. Bismarck adds another and you are at 12 and could have a east and west region. It's about growing the sport not the trophy case.

Bismarck draws from 5 high schools. (Century, High, Legacy, Shiloh, St Mary's)

Yes they have the numbers and yes they cut.

Bingo.

Ah the all stars from Bismarck. 5 high schools in that town and 1 team.

This. ^^^^^^^^

Hang on Dogs.

At least one of the stars.

I'm aware.

And Dean is a minny alum and it didn't stop him. Bottom line it's time for some new blood behind the bench.

He is the guy they need to get. Had the privilege of coaching against him when he was the EGF girls coach. A great guy who is one heck of a coach.

Bottom line is UND won't get more top players in the world because of Idalski. It's no mystery.

Bismarck is not a big hockey town. If it was they would of had another sheet of ice or 2 years ago because they have needed it. Sounds like they are finally getting one added to the Shaumberg Arena. Still baffles me how a town with 5 high schools only has 1 girls team and 2 boys teams.

For real?

And another tonight. The fat lady is warming up.

Hell he had 2 of the best players in the world in the Lammy twins and he couldn't do it. He needs to go.

Been working great for me.

My oh my will forever be etched in my mind. RIP Scottie.

My team loved to play on the big ice. Now the last 2 years I coached Jamestown we had 11 skaters on the team. You would think the bigger ice would be a negative for our team because of our short bench. For some reason it was the opposite. Team got stronger as the games went on and managed a 5th and 4th place finish my last 2 years. The atmosphere in there is pretty amazing when it's full as it gets loud and the team fed off that.

I didn't care about girls HS hockey either until I coached it for 6 years. Now that I'm done I have an appreciation for the work they put into it. With that said I'd much rather watch the boys.

Thanks.

I know. What was the attendance for the championship game? Watching on TV there were plenty of empty seats.

What was the attendance at Scheels last year for the championship game? I have no idea.

And your reasoning is?

Minot is in the process of building a new arena attached to their MAYSA rinks that will seat 2500 fans. I'm sure they will be looking to get it down the road.
