Says you? Your logic is completely lacking but I’m not going to argue with someone who argues just for the sake of argument and doesn’t have the expertise to even support his arguments. Why don’t you ask some hockey officials if the calls were correct. Then you might have some credibility.

He didn’t and hasn’t. I don’t like some keyboard warrior telling everyone they are biased because they don’t agree with his judgment, especially when he doesn’t have the experience or expertise to support his judgment or to criticize others on this board—let alone the referees. The refs made the correct call and that is not biased or looking at it through green colored glasses. It is the call that would be made the overwhelming majority of the time.

You didn’t answer my question. Have you ever reffed hockey and if so, at what level?

What makes you the expert? Have you ever reffed hockey? If so, at what level? I asked someone who was at the game who refs ND high school hockey and is a college lineman and he said the goal from last night would be waived off 3/4ths of the time.

I have 2 tickets in Section 105, Row K for Friday v. Western Michigan. $80 for the pair. Call or text me at (701) 371-0195.

Are you still looking for tickets? I have 2 for Friday night in Section 105 Row K. Call or text me at (701) 371-0195.

Do you mean Sanderson instead of Samuelson?

I fixed your post. Ironically, I am also a Lions fan so I feel your pain.

Mankato is a great program and I have tremendous respect for their team this year. Any team that can beat and tie UND and sweep UMD on the road is legit. Mankato should be in the NCHC.

I agree. It was just a frustrating game because UND outplayed SCSU for 2 periods but couldn't bury chances. Adams played great, just needs to shoot more when he has the chance.

Only if it is a gun fight

2 lower bowl tickets for sale for UND v. Denver on Saturday, 2/16/20. Great seats in section 105, row K, behind the goal where UND shoots twice. $100 for the pair. Text or call me at (701) 371-0195. I'm in Fargo, but I can call REA and leave them at will call if you are not in Fargo.

1. Duluth by far. Cheap and the worst fans like DHG and Ciskie 2. BC 3. Minnesota 4. BU

What college arenas have you been in where the atmosphere is better? I have been to Duluth, St. Cloud and Minnesota on numerous occasions, and none of them are even close to REA. Duluth (Amsoil) and Minnesota (Mariucci) are usually 1/2 empty (unless UND is in town, and then 1/2 the crowd is UND), St. Cloud fans are fair weather fans (they show up when they are good, but otherwise don't and sit on their hands). Denver and CC fans do not even sell out arenas half the size of REA. I'm not sure what you are comparing REA to so it is difficult to gauge your expectations.

Exactly. Some may remember the regional at the Ralph where Holy Cross beat Minnesota, and UND beat Michigan where Jonathan Toews had a hatty. It was absolutely electric in there, more than any atmosphere I have ever experienced at any Frozen Four or Regional---and I have attended at least 8 Frozen Fours (3 UND championships) and multiple regionals. I have also been a season ticket holder since 1986 and went to games in the Old Barn as a kid, so I have experienced great crowds. That regional at REA was special and unique. It is exactly why Hakstol was right that the regionals should return to campus.

Yes

Spot on. Good post. I realize they hung Scheel out to dry a few times, but so did UMD and Shepherd made the stops when he needed. That’s the difference. Scheel has zero confidence right now and it is palpable.

Agree 100%.

Why isn’t Tychonik playing again?

Scheel is brutal right now. His angles are poor and he’s playing with no confidence and I’m being kind.

I agree. I think he is definitely a top 6 defenseman, but he should at least be the extra skater.

You are a St. Cloud apologist. What was St. Cloud's excuse in 2018 when they lost to Air Force in the regional, or 2016 when they lost to Ferris State? St. Cloud always chokes when it comes to the NCAA tournament.

AIC beat St. Cloud in the tourney. Who hasn't?

Atrocious goaltending. 4 goals on 8 shots

Tickets have been SOLD
