And the guy is going to be the head of the officials for the NCHC? Lolwat?

Pretty disappointing to lose out on him. Can't blame him though, BC is a hell of a program that has been enjoying continued success.

Thanks for sharing those wallpapers Big A HG. They look pretty darn slick on my MacBook Air.

Finally had to put Hammer and Koberinski on mute. It's absolutely brutal listening to them. Only thing the midco crew has going for them is Katie Hale. Hammer doesn't know hockey. Let him do football and let's get someone who does know hockey. Sweeney, Hennessy(sp?) p Anyone with hockey knowledge would probably be better.

I think you understood what bcblues meant. I catch myself saying "we" as well when talking about the team. Hell, had to edit one of my recent posts cause I was saying "we" as well.

No doubt, BU is a very good team. No question about it. But losing the game the way they did is very disappointing especially since they were playing pretty well until the last bit of the 3rd. Frustrating. I am sure the team is feeling just the same.

Saturday woes continue. Don't care how early in this season is, it is very disappointing. UND turtled and BU made them pay for it.

Atrocious defensive play in our end in the 1st period. That needs to be corrected. Lucky we are only down by one.

Just take a look at GPL. When it was first assumed that UND/UMTC wouldn't be playing again for a while many fans acted like it was nothing. Saying "good riddance" and used the "we don't need them as much as they need us" line. With that said, GPLers are the more tolerable of the Gopher fan variety but comments posted over their can get to be just as asinine as ones made here.

Poles? We're talking about...poles?!?

Indeed, he has Maroon & Gold written all over him considering family ties to the Gopher program.

I like this. Penrose Cup sounds legit.

Gotta love UND hockey. Lose second game into the season and it's like it is the end of the world. Who am I kidding? That is how many people act for any loss in general here. Always enjoy seeing the many different reactions to losing. Anyways, losing this game blows because of PWR implications later in the season. However, it ain't going to matter at all if the team can put together a good regular season the rest of the way like we all know they have the potential to do so.

Well when you start talking about their team and players, it's gonna attract them. Possibly might need to reconsider the topic title of this thread if it continues.

Lucky for us we don't face them until January. By then I'm guessing the team will be gelling by then(at least should be).

Indeed and they've made it 3-0 now. All I gotta say is if our defense plays like they've played in the exhibitions games...UND will get lit up just like Michigan State is. Another thing though is just how good of a team is Michigan State this year? Either way, Minnesota is just dominating them.

I thought the MidcoSN broadcast was a little better in quality than in years past. The picture wasn't as dark as it use to be. For all the complaining, people could help themselves out by tweaking the brightness/contrast settings on their TV. Hell, I'd recommend people getting their HDTV's calibrated if they want to get the best picture possible. For those with ole' CRT TV's...not much can be done on your end.

I get what you mean. College hockey TV viewership in general isn't gonna beat out a football game. I believe our 2 games that were on NBCSN were on the list of having the highest amount of viewers last year for the hockey games they covered. Small sample but I'm hoping after next year, CBS College Sports considers airing more UND games than the package they have set in place for next year. Who knows may be they will if the viewership numbers are good.

Big time? If that were true we'd be having FS North or some other more renowned regional network providing coverage for our games. In the end it really doesn't matter what you or I think though. Midco will do want they want to do. I just find it hilarious considering many people panned Sweeney and WDAZ broadcasts. Would I rather have him? Yes. Do I think Midco is going to fire Hammer and bring Sweeney back? Doubt it.

I'm going to reserve my judgment on Hammer until he's got a couple more games under his belt. Same goes for the rest of the Midco broadcast. Give some slack folks, WDAZ didn't learn the ropes of broadcasting the games over night. It took them some time as well to work out the kinks.

I think our D looked shaky but that is too be expected I bet that will change with Berry coaching them during practices.. I thought Saunders and Gothberg did alright in their own right though. Too bad Tate couldn't get some icetime though. Definitely think MacWilliam's presence on the blueline is being missed right now. His return after serving his suspension will be greatly appreciated. As for Parks, didn't look good but I hope he doesn't miss too much time.

Now 35-17 Cal Poly. 3:25 left in 4th Quarter.

28-17 Cal Poly 3:37 left in the 4th Quarter.

That RA possibly saved a player's life. Good on him. Thanks for sharing how you would've responded(or lackthereof) to the situation

The whole reason for starting this conference is nothing but a joke. The hiring of Don Adam just exacerbates the joke.
