F*ck that noise!

#facts

thanks!

Double shift those guys...they're young; they would love it!

Is Brad just throwing darts for line combos now?

What the absolute f*ck?

All of this.

What podcast is that? Interested in listening.

This would be a good start.

You’re saying the 7-3 beat down last Saturday was due to puck luck? Not sure that would account for a 4 goal difference.

Have you watched them this year? Sioux are consistently inconsistent.

Hell, I'd take the Mafiaman over Ciskie!

One of the most penalized with one of the worst penalty kills in recent program history. That doesn't make for a winning combination.

From Schlossman in today's Heraldo: UND has known for a couple of weeks now that its only route to the NCAA tournament is by winning the National Collegiate Hockey Conference Frozen Faceoff. The league flopped in nonconference play this season, putting its members in poor position in the Pairwise Rankings. That is true, but the reason UND is in a bad spot in the Pairwise is because UND lost crucial non-conference games. (See Bemidji, Cornell, and OT win against Robert Morris) If you take care of your own games, then you don't need to worry about how the rest of the NCHC played out of conference. The conference didn't put the Sioux into this situation; their own inconsistent play did.

Luck may play a part in some of the stuff that's happened with the team, but it goes way beyond that. And as far as loveable losers, I'm just not ready to embrace that for a team that I feel can play at a much higher level. I like the fact that UND is expected to be in the NCAA's every year; and have home ice for the conference tourney every year; and be a team nobody wants to face every year; and be in the conversation for a National Championship every year. This program has a history of high achievement; why would we want to settle for less than that?

It's kinda like pulling out the old Billy Baroo for every shot.

My friend, who is a Gopher Superfan, said that there are four guys for Minny just waiting for the season to end so they can sign their pro contracts. Watching Sunday’s game against the Irish, Minny did not appear to be giving it their all. Maybe it’s because they already know they will be in the NCAA’s.

It's whatever you want it to be; you want a place to celebrate or vent? This is the place! Personally, I like to read the postgame stuff because there's always stuff I miss during games that gets discussed/explained. Yes, there's a lot of crap but make no mistake, what goes on here has zero impact on the program, coaches, and players. Just my two cents.

So he coming back to Chicago? Or baby steps to see what he can do?

I wish I had a gimmick.

I thought DaveK was…

Gino won 3 Natty's but he ultimately got the ax after some down years in the 90s. Blaiser did it about right; got out after 10 years, 2 titles and the team was still at the top. Hakstol was probably the one who doesn't get enough credit; 7 Frozen fours in 11 years but ultimately no natty. When Philly came calling with a dump truck full of money who could blame him for leaving? B-rad has had some bad luck with the Covid year cancellation and the 5 OT loss to Duluth after they basically got a pass into the regional final due to that bunch of a$$holes from Michigan. Also the BU loss in Fargo looms large. Those were some pretty good teams that could have done more damage but ultimately didn't. The current streak of one and done in the NCAA's or missing it altogether along with some conference quarterfinal road series definitely raises questions as to the direction of the program. I'm pretty sure Brad knows they aren't having a great year but is remaining positive to try get a spark going into the playoffs. Guessing he will come back no matter what happens the remainder of this season, but he knows the results outside of NCHC play haven't been up to par the past few years.

Well it is spring...I could use another towel to wipe the mud off the dog.

The games are scheduled to be shown on Midco per their website.. It also appears that they will be on NCHC.tv. https://midcosports.com/
