And CC has to be licking their chops hoping this goes on all night.

Looks like he just reported what Carle said without editorial comment. Sometimes you can say a lot without saying anything

That tourney looks very winnable.

When they tore down Memorial did they ever make bricks available for sale. I was fully expecting that and hoped to buy one as a momento. I have them from Yankees Stadium and other stadiums of yesteryear. If this didn't happen seems like a missed opportunity. Feel the same way with Walsh. Have huge family connections and would love to have a piece of that history. .

Unless Miami gets one of their inexplicable wins against a good team. Then we could be headed to Lawson. If UND and the Bulldogs win tomorrow we are Omaha bound and with momentum, not a loss.

I can. League already has Minnesota presence and unless Miami leaves, no need to add another team. 8 is ideal.

I'm pointing it out in the context of this discussion. I agree both can be done. Blais did both (missed one tourney after reviving the program), Hak made the tourney but no NCAA titles, Berry won a title but has missed the tourney. And until we are eliminated from the Frozen Faceoff, we don't know we are out of the NCAA tourney this year.

Which again, he has won, ending the second longest drought in school history. Decide what you want, winning titles or just making the tournament. It's the same argument Red Sox and Yankees fans have had over the past 20 years.

No, I'm saying there wasn't a tournament and we don't know what would have happened, so there is at least some mitigation to winning 1 NCAA game since the 2016 title. Context is a good thing.

And since 2002 we've won one NCAA title, also under Berry. Along with the what if season of 2020. That paired with a 50 percent succes rate in winning the regular season title in the toughest league in college hockey. Not sure what your expectations are but Berry's tenure has fallen largely in line with the programs history overall and hardly been some colossal failure.

Luckily the Forum doesn't make the decision. And to be fair if USD wins, NDSU would get 2. But that's why they play the games.

This is revisionist history. The program regained prominence under Blais and even he had great teams that bowed out of the NCAAs early. Getting to the Frozen Four is fun, but ultimately the Hak era is the Buffalo Bill's period in terms of NCAA performance with plenty of heartbreaking losses and a Red Sox like cursed feeling. And i might be in the minority but I definitely value regular season titles higher the final five/frozen faceoff the fact that we hang banners for them would indicate the program does as well. This year has been a disappointing one but to ignore and diminish the success of the previous 3 seasons is pretty short sighted.

What a joke.

Sad to see the decline of the Spoilers. Rich hockey tradition there.

Those Carolina jerseys are pretty sweet.

8 teams Thursday, Friday, Sunday at a single site and it might make sense. Shootout if needed so no marathon OTs. Something to kill time during Final Four weekend. Maybe also use it as an opportunity to test rule changes for the following year. WCHA, ECAC and Atlantic Hockey teams especially would appreciate opportunities to play name programs. Not the best idea in the world, but also not the worst. No different than the NIT, CIT et al and most of the garbage bowl games.

Ragged play coming out of TO. Need to get FT miss or steal here.

Home for Christmas so first extended viewing but Hoskins is a really complete player. Enjoy her effort.

Pretty sure Boise St. and a couple of others would be devastated to be left in that grouping. And not sure what happened to the rest of the actual Mountain West teams.

Yes, a medical redshirt from his year at Mizzou. The Athletic ran a story on him about a month ago. Seems like a good guy.

Yes I think they did probably even stay 3 just to avoid immediate um osu rematch

TCU overtime play calls on 3rd and 4th just atrocious. QB had made plays and took it out of his hands. Crazy.

Classic Watergate. It's not the act, it's the cover up. UND with another self inflicted wound.

So UND is making money on a trademark it doesn't own? Bold Strategy, Cotton.

And we can have FTX sponsor our move up.
