Because UND has had real good teams over the years? If the national tournament wasn’t single game elimination, I think a lot of the teams that were regular season champs would go further more often than not. Single game eliminations are a crapshoot. If you can’t comprehend that, I don’t know what to tell you. I feel like you should since you basically gave your lover Sandy another natty before they even played UMass.

I don’t think UMD hangs participation banners. Better season? They won nothing. Overall, UND had the much better season. That isn’t even a debate. Winning the regular season, conference tournament, or national championship isn’t easy. UND won 2 out of 3 and while I certainly wish a national title was part of that number instead of either the penrose or conference championship, it was still a better season than UMD.

My only change is 2017. It was please not Denver for me. Didn’t want them tying UND with 8 immediately after UND won in 2016.

Bahahahahahaha!

It was anybody but Duluth for me. It’s whatever if the Huskies win. They’d have certainly earned it if they can finally cross that finish line.

THERE IS A LORD!!! You know UMD fans are going to bitch about that last non-call. Refs let them play.

UMass wins!!!

I’d say this closes door on Thome staying. I wonder if he’ll head to Bemidji to complete the straight swap.

Lowell coach Bazin coming off as a real salty/bitter *** in regards to the transfer portal. Link: https://www.lowellsun.com/2021/04/08/umass-lowell-facing-transfer-portal-troubles/ If I was any of the Lowell players that are in the portal and read this article, zero chance I'd consider returning and removing my name from the portal.

UMass will be without their starting goaltender and three other players vs UMD. It’s ridiculous the amount of breaks and advantages that has been going Duluth’s way. Pretty comical at this point. I’m sure just a matter of time before they get a bye to championship game. Cause why not.

I sure hope that Berry & Co. are calling him and/or have made their recruiting pitch to him.

Some good news for UND. Jasper is gonna be relied upon a lot.

I’m kind of surprised Mismash hasn’t signed yet though I wonder if injury is part of the cause. I would be ecstatic if he decided to come back to UND for a 5th year. Same for Adams. Can’t help but be concerned about the offense struggling next season. Getting Cruikshank would be a nice jolt to the arm. I hope Berry gets a goalie from the portal. Totally cool if Thome stays but be nice to get another proven goalie even if for backup purposes.

I was silently hoping Pinto would stay but knew out of all the players on the team, he was the most ready to take the next step in his development. Sucks to see him go but I wish him well and look forward to following his career.

Newhook also leaves BC.

BuT hE hAd HaKsToL's ReCrUiTs To WiN iT! Cause you know, gotta minimize what Berry did and amplify how awesome Sandelin is.

The Durf in the portal.

Couldn’t be happier for @bale31! Mavs breaking through that wall!

I must say it’s been a little therapeutic reading posts in this thread after spending most of the day trying not to think about the outcome of last night/this morning or college hockey in general. Just want to say thank you to the many members of SiouxSports that share your thoughts here. Quite a few of them has helped lessen the pain a little. Still gonna be a bit before I get over this one though.

Has Berry been at UND for 21 years? How about 10? Simple question.

5-2 in NCAA tournament games? Small sample size but I don’t know how much tolerance there will be if there’s any more down seasons like 17-18 and 18-19. Hakstol never won the big one but he brought sustained success for the program. Fans got use to making the tournament every year. Berry isn’t at Hakstol level of choking yet but man it’d sure be nice to have same level of NCAA tournament success that Duluth has under Sandelin.

Until Sanderson himself confirms he’s returning, have to leave possibility open.

I think all the seniors are gone. Bast might want to come back to play with his brother but I hope he decides to move on or play somewhere else if he wants extra year. Ottawa is definitely going to push to sign JBD and Pinto. Hell, I think Ottawa will say it’s up to Sanderson on whether or not he wants to sign.
