  1. I'm in the market for a "Large" Green Reebok Sioux logo jersey. Open to offers.
  2. I have done some quick modifications to BB's logo. Think this looks better. Got rid of the "tear" look.
  3. Final thoughts on the newBB Hawks logo making its way on social media: 1. Agreed the font he used needs to be modified regarding “North Dakota” and even “Hawks” (he can do better) good attempt, though. I appreciate his artwork very much! 2. The subtle Sioux head in the feathers is pure genius!!! Honors the past tradition of UND (who obviously was once the Fighting Sioux) and transitions or even transforms into the new logo/nickname The Fighting Hawks. It gives a reason for the Sioux logo die hards to embrace the new logo and change. End result, finally, now the majority nickname/logo supporters will be no longer divided. Hey, UND Business school, maybe I’ll now donate future cash to the school as a donation. When’s the Gamble Hall renovation going to happen? I’ve always loved that one...... ;-) 3. I will never own or buy any current Fighting Hawks apparel. Why? Because the minority controlled the outcome during this whole process and it is not what the majority of UND fans, supporters, alumni, you name it, WANTED. I would have supported just “North Dakota” or being the “Fighting Hawks” had they done an aviation (plane) logo (no one ever brought that up, and obviously never came to fruition). In addition, current Fighting Hawks logo looks like the US Postal Service logo meets Dove (soap) logo. It's super “cheap” looking on (black) hats, shirts, zip ups etc. *See Bubba (UNDs head football coach) apparel on interviews or game days etc. With that said, it is a unique design, I’ll give the marketing firm some credit there... However, overall, it’s a dumpster fire. Final comment, before people claim I’m the typical “Sioux” die hard logo fan. I still have purchased “UND” apparel, or “North Dakota”’ merchandise over the last 8 years or so... I have bought a hat, some t-shirts etc. (I prefer the Dacotah legacy stuff, though) Bottom line/final thoughts: “Current” logo is very average at best ... One will say, “Open your mind” (have an open mind) In response, I say, "I do", “open your eyes, it’s garbage!" * This coming from a UND marketing alumnus that has a keen eye for design and attention to detail (probably have some spelling/grammar errors in this post, I’m aware) So let’s hear the response, complaining/bitching feedback. I’m “open” to it. :-)
  4. Happy with the weekend result. Split on the road against a decent Miami team. - Positives - Kawaguchi nets his first 2 goals of the year. Confidence now boosted. He needs to continue to score. Monkey is now off his back. All the skill is there moving forward. - Lack of scoring? Jones and Hain were out and the team still played a solid college hockey game. This team will do just fine. - Penski looking good and has confidence. Depth at D is gonna be huge for this squad this year. - J. Weatherby is getting close. Once he gets his first goal and some more confidence, that’ll add to UNDs offense moving forward too. - Final comment: 8 games in this year, (it’s early still) however, these 8 games have been more enjoyable to watch than the first 8 games last year. Relax Sioux fans, if this team continues trending/ getting better, they’ll make the NCAA tournament. Make the tournament, anything can happen.
  5. How do you not call that?!
  6. Is this game on the Pluto TV app with the newer Apple TVs? I don’t see it today...
  7. Stick tap to Adam Scheel! Nice to see a UND goalie get a shutout, none the less one finally at home in the Ralph. Nice goals by Rhett. Nice passes by Mr. Adams
  8. Gabe Bast appears to be dinged up again.... rolls eyes
  9. Jost stays too, (pretty confident) they a win a few more games and make the natty.
  10. Anyone know what channel the MN Tourney would be on Direct TV?
  11. Team has battled against top teams and can’t finish or grease out a win. The sophomore class has been brutal. Look at the stats. There’s some talent on the team, but that class isn’t carrying their load at all. One of the issues no question. Next year will be terrible.
  12. Probably give them 28 for next year too. Return a lot of players just looking at their roster.
  13. iPad or via Apple TV? I only see Denver vs. St. Cloud.
  14. What did Collin Adams do to get into the doghouse? Pretty bad when Casey Johnson (a Dman) and a few other forwards are in the lineup and he’s not. Thought he started off the year well and would make a big impact as a freshman.
  15. A winning team again is what’s needed at the Alerus. I want Bubba to have success and have a sold out game. Times ticking. Still optimistic.
  16. Tom Brady. Where ya at? GOAT.
  17. Thought UND was flat. New lines showcased inconsistency and poor play. Kawg, Adams, Mismash didn’t see much ice. I don’t understand. 5 min PP was huge. Needed to score 2 goals there You’re telling me Yon or Simo is gonna win the game in the 3rd? UND need to get healthy once again and figure out their lineup!
  18. I think it's up to the Juniors to step up. The season relies on them on how far they want their season to go. JJ has 1 goal only thus far. Pogo has 4 goals only. Shaw has been good at times and then inconsistent for stretches. It would be a bonus on the offense too if the freshies would start chipping in more too, but I will cut them some slack.
  19. Very long list: Lee Goren Bryan Lundbohm Ryan Bayda Travis Roche Mike Commodore David Hale Brandon Bochensk James Massen Zach Parise Matt Greene Brady Murray Drew Stafford Matt Smaby Rastislav Spirko Travis Zajac T.J. Oshie Jonathan Toews Brian Lee Taylor Chorney Jason Gregoire Brett Hextall David Toews Corey Fienhage Brock Nelson Rocco Grimaldi Jordan Schmaltz Nick Schmaltz Luke Johnson Paul Ladue Troy Stecher Keaton Thompson Zane McIntyre Brock Boeser Tucker Poolman Tyson Jost Might have missed a few.
  20. USA lacks a solid blueline. Huges and Fox are good and can transition the puck, but collectively their back end is soft.
  21. Surprised it was that tight. Think RR has a lot of seniors, must not be that good. Haven’t see the team play just speculating off stats.
  22. I mean his current coach played at SCSU. And that coach had friends, Lee, Vande that played at UND. He would have heard the pros and cons of going to St. Cloud and UND. He's a good recruit but again is small. Could be more of an impact player at SCSU. There's def. some advantages and disadvantages for his scenario. Glad he chose, UND, actually thought he'd be at SCSU seeming it would be a better fit. I hope he continues to do well in the USHL too going forward. I don't want to see another Cakebread scenario play out.
  23. like this watching this team more so than last year with Jost and Brock. This is a team, all 4 lines going. Yon, Smith and Simo have really stepped up their game. This team is rising to the occasion with the adversity and injuries. It’ll be nice to get Hoff and Bowen back but I can’t single out one terrible performance. We’re seeing that team depth.
