And yet, you remain in retirement? C'mon, Wilbur, you have at least that covid year left to burn.

To get very deep in the tournament, our forwards will eventually need to score some goals. Be nice to get Senden and Gaber back on the ice.

Now how in the hill do you find that?

When good people throw dead bulldogs on the ice, which end to they typically use?

The Sparky Synapse!!

The community itself has got to matter to some. These kids rarely come directly from small towns in western Canada or Minnesota anymore. They nearly all play junior hockey in a large city or bigger town before going to college. Life off the ice in places like Boston, Denver, Minneapolis and even Madison is very different from what it is in GF. Whether that is a factor that hurts UND much of the time is difficult to tell, I suppose, but the days when kids from Estevan or Warroad identified with UND because of its small town feel are probably on the decline.

Would be nice to have Biondi--he can play. As skilled as he is, I wouldn't take him over Gaber, though.

The problem I have is that irony, satire, sarcasm, all have a literal believability aspect that makes them work. Openly declaring those kinds of comments robs them of that, IMO. But we live in a hot/cold world, unfortunately, where nuance has been devalued.

UMD, you've been grinda'd

You need to have your glasses on to see it. Those glasses.

UND without its best player, captain, and top scorer and yet is beating UMD in its own building for the second night in a row. Sandy is just being outcoached, plain and simple. edit: feel like I need to apologize for the smiley. Just too many literal readers around here.

nchc tv, right?

They are both (all three, actually) young, and the chances that other programs come hunting are good, probably already have, although I don't know what the rules are regarding that.

He might have been having some fun, Texan.

You may very well be right, Cratter. These kids have probably had pretty young coaches during their teens too, coaches moving up through the junior system.

Before this year, 8 of the last 10 Super Bowl winning head coaches have been in their 60s. The other two, Pederson and Harbaugh, were 49 and 40. I'm guessing they were even older going back further. But as to your point, Gwoz, Lucia, Eades, and Blais were all pretty young when they won their first. Probably similar to Berry? I don't know how old Red was in his first one--did they even keep records back before artificial ice?

It's hard to tell with Sandy: Good coach but bad recruiter or good recruiter but bad coach? Nice guy though.

I don't know: UMD fans have to be wondering why they're losing games like this to less talented teams.

How do we stream this one, since it's not on nchc tv?

Sorry if you thought I was giving anyone excuses. Just don't think our academics are a recruiting advantage.

I certainly agree that UND should be in the mix for most high end, NHL-bound kids, but Minn and Mich have just as much tradition and UND is no match for any big ten school's range of academic offerings. I have two degrees from UND and am grateful for them, but there are many high end hockey programs out there at schools with quite a bit more to offer in academics, fellowships, internships, etc.

Must be the lower collarbone.

Love your optimism but don't think we are in a prime position, given the remaining schedule. Possible? Sure, but not probable IMO. If UND wins the Penrose with this roster, Berry should get COY.

Nut cutttin' time straight ahead.

We probably would not sweep them now, even with a full roster.
