When's the last time you had a scan, Sic? (And I don't mean for virus protection).

OSU goalie giving up rebounds.

They are really skating. Intense. But dam, OSU's helmets are ugly, especially the dumbazz FB stickers. Same as FB, of course, and they are OK, but the color doesn't work with a hockey uni, IMO. It's the important things . . .

Thanks for that. BTW, if I need to be set straight, direct it at me. We would all benefit from being set straight now and then.

Sounds like you're saying the programs hurt by the NIL policy will likely not have the leverage to ensure (through regulation) that the moneys gifted to the players are, in fact, generated from the marketing of that player's image, name or likeness? It's just laundered money from individual and corporate boosters.
-
I'm willing to believe that since I will be the first to admit ignorance on the issue. But if NIL involves the use of the player's name, image or likeness for marketing purposes, how can that marketing effort generate dollars if the marketplace doesn't care much about the name or image being used? You'll probably have to explain it to me like I'm a six-year-old, as Denzel Washington would say.

This year's team showed early on that it is capable of playing a possession game once they get the puck deep. "Capable" being the operative term. -
You guys who make light of poop sandwiches have never even eaten a real poop sandwich.

Since college hockey is such a niche sport, NIL ought to have less impact, though a larger media market like Mpls-Stp that is hockey-centric certainly should have a big advantage over UND or even DU, simply from a marketing standpoint. And don't try to say I'm wrong. A girl gets tired of being wrong all the time.

Looks like Cornell/Denver wasn't all about Denver not coming to play.

Do you think gf would blow that shoebox of dime and nickel rolls he saved from his days on the patch? I figured he would save that for Miley Cyrus posters. -

Also true . . . . But, we all know they bought the refs. -

It's good to hear Judd express confidence in the blue line talent they are bringing in, but D is a steep learning curve for freshmen in D-1 hockey. -
Hardly a bunch of friendlies from a Sioux perspective, but I'd like to see that FF in person.
-
With possibly more entering the portal as the tourney progresses, wouldn't the coaches also be a little cautious about committing at this point?
-
We all have a case of gopher hate, and for good reason, but they are dam good and deserve to be in the FF, IMO. A final four of UMinn, BU, QU, and UMich would be some great hockey, though I suppose it's unlikely they will all get through. I'd like to see the gophs and BU square off at some point.

The Dogs didn't want him once they found out he was a grindah impostah.

If Berry manages to bring him in, better put gfhockey under watch.

We all believed since last spring that he would almost certainly be gone next year. Good for the program to have players signed to the big stage. -
I think next year’s team, while young/new, will benefit from lower expectations. Depends on 25 and 15, of course, and a few sophs will have high expectation for themselves, but the team will feel like it’s starting new. or maybe not.

I don't know where BB's contract sits, but next year will be pivotal in a LOT of people's minds, including those who have stood by him. -

The physical game is called much different now than it was for either of those guys.
