Will the Universities soon be called NBA/NFL/NHL affiliates?

Not businesssuit? I’ll say it then: he has the doubledipshit look about him. And I’m a great judge of dipshits.

They’ll play hard. I just don’t know if they have the passing confidence to get through 3 periods without getting bottled up in their own end for extended periods of time. TJ will have to be at his very best. But with a tip or dirty goal or two in our favor, the margin for error might be enough.

Western on Friday is a good draw. As much rest as is possible after sweeping UNO, and they may as well deal with Western up front. Lose and they didn't belong anyway. Win and it's a confidence builder for likely DU. Western is clearly the better team, but it's hockey. Win or go down fighting.

Not even. A friend's uncle who lives in a memory care unit.

TJ's a little like Jim Craig. Maybe not the best overall, but the one who has the best chance of standing on his head and beating a better team. Bring on the red army.

I wouldn't loose it over something that minor.

Further evidence of a divided locker room.

I think this post adds to the discussion.

As long as I stay away, they'll bounce back. Undergrad degree 1975; additional degree 1992.

Maybe UNO will bring back Johnny T, resulting in two easy wins for the Green and White. Even having him in the stands has to help.

How many times during those 9 years did his team win the toughest conference in the country (not toughest this year, by a longshot), and how often was he selected coach of the year in that conference? When and if they don't make the tourney this year, I have no problem with the school declining to renew his contract, but calling him a bad coach is just emotions talking. Thing is, though, that aside from the one natty (which some consider the only metric that matters, at least during the Hakstol years), his post season record is dismal. College sports should not be considered business, but coaching and admin certainly is. Berry knows that. if necessary, just let him go and tell him that for all he meant to the players, fans, and staff, the post season success just wasn't happening and the program had to move on. You don't have to demonize to make the tough call.

Must have been high up on his achilles. Skate boot would ordinarily prevent that, you'd think.

Yeah, but that's also cool. Like the loyal bleacher fans at Wrigley Field during all those years when the Cubs fell short every year.

I'm one who has no problem with people who are critical of the program/administrators/coaches and who express those views in strong terms. Free and open criticism should be encouraged; it's often what keeps us honest. That said, it's hard to have much sympathy for critics who consider themselves victims. These sites are generally anonymous and completely risk and responsibility free. Probably why we users are often so sure of ourselves.

The site has no agenda or purpose other than to provide entertainment of whatever kind each user seeks.

I can't believe you guys took that literally. The markers were there. Lame? Probably. But . . . .

All you guys repeatedly demanding Berry's head are just angry losers with nothing better to do than waste hours and hours of your time every day biatching on this site. It pisses me off, is what it does. And don't try to deny it. I monitor these things very closely.

The annual Wilbur Watch commences. He's still with us, as of 8:00 a.m. this morning.

True. James has turned into a player the other side has to account for whenever he's on the ice.

I don't think the ENG off the end wall after icing with James on the ice was an accident. I had the sound off and didn't hear commentary.

How do we watch. I assume NCHCtv is unavailable.

I think Hak was one of the best program coaches UND has had. I was not among those calling for his head but understand how the Steinbrenner school works.

The mob couldn't wait for Hak to go, because he couldn't win the big one.

A lot of people on this board thought UND could be a contender. What is the direct evidence that there were locker room issues before the season began?
