  1. Twenty minutes to puck drop!
  2. As long as Pierre Karl Peladeau is in the mix QC will continue to be on the outside looking in.
  3. Not sure if this is allowed, but here's the "JV" squad (also devoid of PIT/BOS players) F: Hall(NJD) Ovechkin(WSH) Kane(SJS) Staal(MIN) Karlsson(VGK) Marner(TOR) D: Carlson(WSH) Burns(SJS) Gostisbehere(PHI) Josi(NSH)
  4. F: Kucherov(TBL) Giroux(PHI) Matthews(TOR) Kopitar(LAK) Getzlaf(ANA) Connor(WPG) D: Byfuglien(WPG) Subban(NSH) Jones(CBJ) McDonagh(TBL)
  5. I'll settle for lawn mower tossing at this point...
  6. Is there a minimum seating capacity to host? Scheels Arena is only ~6,500 right?
  7. Ralston's too small, I don't know what else would be a viable option there.
  8. Wholeheartedly agree, unfortunately it doesn't look like it's changing soon...
  9. CenturyLInk Center would be great location. Downtown Omaha can be pretty fun, and some great food too.
  10. What was face on them?
  11. Whomever pays this needs their head examined. We will be there to hang with friends, if we stumble into some great, if not that's fine too.
  12. Some entries on Reddit and the hockey blogs but that's about it.
  13. I know this sounds crazy, as they are a solid 3rd place in the Central, but the product on the ice has become stale and I expect nothing out of this team come April. I'm envious of what Winnipeg has put together.
  14. Kupchella was an introvert and hired another introvert shortly before leaving.
  15. I would be interested in a 15-year trend between the schools of new freshman on-campus enrollment, by high school, by major (particularly overlapping programs). I don't have the ratios, but I would hope the trend would be stable. I don't think it is. I think UND has lost share. This is based on conversations and intuition, as I don't have have access to the data and don't know anyone who does. And if lost share is true, is it attributable to marketing, the appeal of their respective locations, efficient use of social media? Who knows?
  16. What is this supposed "academic quality initiative"? https://www.ndsu.edu/admission/admission_information/requirements/ http://und.edu/admissions/undergraduate/apply/ What am I missing?
  17. It's only one data point, but Totino-Grace Class of 2017 sent about 30 kids to NDSU, 5 to UND. Not an underperforming school by any measure. This is out of a class of about 200. Maybe they were all football fans?
  18. I miss the old Western Wrestling Conference and their weekly show on Fox Sports FS9 the "Nueve".
  19. I think a technical school is also a form of education. A 4-year bachelors isn't the right answer for everyone, despite this idea being shoved down kids throats for two decades now. We are in desperate need of good people in the trades.
  20. It is reasonable to think that UND might still have the largest contingent of fans in Sioux Falls? It seems like that's the state of fandom in college hockey.
  21. With two St. Cloud wins, Motzko punches his ticket to St. Paul in April and Minneapolis in May.
  22. It was a general comment, although with flight costs it’s probably in the ball park. UND is still a great value.
  23. Being saddled with $75k - $100k of debt tends to put a damper on things like marriage, home ownership, tickets to sporting events, etc.
