Recruits come and go… I just want a new gawd damn logo soon!

https://www.therinklive.com/mens-division-1/big-10/top-ranked-recruit-and-massachusetts-native-picks-gophers At what point, did you think UND had a chance? Sure we had discussions and maybe an offer… Kid was wearing Gopher gear as a young lad, and has family and friends in MN that lead him to Shattuck.

This team at forward has a lot of pieces to shuffle the deck and with matchups against teams. With Albrecht development and Portz speed, can be quite effective. Then coaches I would imagine can toss in Strinden as heavy/gritty player against bigger teams once he develops and is sound in his own end and adjusts to the college game. If Ness can play with some more skilled players, maybe he gets more looks this year too and ups his Gs. Bottom line, team at forward has depth because which is good, because unfortunately injuries will happen.

any illegal stream?

Nice! Go get another one.

Natty or bust this year.

Good photoshop skills or whatever application you used for your work, kudos! However, I wouldn't spend a dime on one of these if they ever saw the light - no thanks!

I’ll donate money right now for new logo voted by the students and alumni. That fundraiser is one I can get behind. If an independent logo funds was started, do you think the university shuts it down? Serious question.

Any update on the transfer goalie in the summer skates? He's going to be the back bone of the team if he can come in and play well. Should be an exciting year!

Coaches were too busy playing and stroking off Luke Hughes. Like playing 2 lines only in state semifinal and final games. Not usually the recipe for success.

Lotta Gophers on that WJC team… Pretty causal tournament for Knies and Faber. Yikes… I think Faber is a decent college player but tremendously overrated.

I’m talking strictly during the game (crowd) or after whistle or longer timeouts etc. Always room for improvement.

Covid still unprecedented severely death in Canada too.

No link for today?

Maybe one day the World Juniors will be streamed in the states again. !@#$ grinds my gears!

Just sucks it's the only way to watch. I still can't believe the NHL Network doesn't have a subscription base/fee. I feel like many NHL fans would pay 2-4.99/month to have the NHL Network to watch this and during peak NHL season and the playoffs.

This sh^t on the NHL network or what?

I’d imagine UND coaching staff will make a call to Adam Fantilli. Worth a shot, nothing to lose.

Who’s next?

Did James do ok in the Canada WJ Camp? I didn’t expect him to make the team, but good experience seeing/playing with those caliber of players. Anyone have some twitter updates?

I don’t know the rules of the NCAA, but Berry and Jackson should poach and try a last minute reach out effort to Adam Fantilli to switch and decommit from Michigan with their coach scandal.

There’s always next year…

I’m fine with more band. They need to get creative and do something unique to stand out that is their own. Wisconsin and Michigan Tech band figured it out. No creative heads/minds in the band community there?!

Off-season time killer. What are a few things the Ralph needs for better fan engagement or production to be better or more elite than an NHL game/fan experience? I’ll start. 1. Pregame tailgating. Not always available as an option, but should hold pre-party at the betty or olympic rink with music etc. 2. Unified cheer to get all students and fans engaged. We used to have the let’s go Sioux chant that was electric and most would be involved in late 90s and 2000s. Name change ruined this. 3. A green out and not a white out. White out is exclusive to the Winnipeg Jets. Take that green jerseys worn in Nashville and do a green out. 4. More unique intermission/sponsor tv time out games or things, Update them. Get creative, copy the most fun in the NHL/AHL even ECHL. Any ideas?

I knew that. Going woke/PC... I bet their jersey sales are down a lot. Given their new PC logo and marketing, they are losing money and gaining negative marketing (attention) by having the worst college hockey jerseys. Period. I'm sure that helps a ton in recruiting and exposure for Gen Z kids and building the CC brand. Kudos! What a fail.
