They get high draft picks to sign early by having them play in end of year games, thus burning a year on their entry level contract.

I do too. Tons of potential. I think he'll be remembered as a very special player by the time he leaves, hopefully after NEXT season.

We're lucky that Brock picked UND. Great player, had a lot of fun watching him. I wish him nothing but the best going forward. The way that NHL contracts are set up, if he signs now he burns one year of his entry deal - could be very advantageous for him down the road. His coaches and teammates understand that's how it works. He's part of the Sioux family forever. And we have another reason to cheer for the Canucks.

UMD So cheap. Whiny too

We're good. Thanks.

Brock

Or an NHL team or "advisor" saying to Tucker, Cam, Jost or Boesser: NCHC refs won't protect you.

So, has UMD supplanted Minny, DU and Wisconsin as our most hated rivals? Yep. Zero respect for Sandelin now.

BU is going to be a tough task. But really want another shot at UMD. Don't think the boys are taking the Poolman injury or Poink's running into Cam lightly. Best revenge is to beat them on the scoreboard.

Jost

Yep

We're cheering for Michigan, right? Michigan State over Penn State? Minnesota over Penn State? And BU over Notre Dame? Who should we be cheering for?

Sold

Gersich

Agreed. They played very well last Saturday, deserved a win. This team has the potential to make a nice run here. A couple of elite players in Jost and Boesser, an unbelievable defenseman in Tucker, talented forwards in Poganski and Gersich, an experienced goalie, and some kids who have grown up in a hurry this year. I like our chances.

Sold

Jost

Because it is so costly? They could make $ on other events? Assuming that extra money would go to UND athletics?

There's all kinds of speculation on why women's hockey won't be cut. But is there an official reason? I thought it was announced that everything is on the table this time.

This.

Yep. Very.

Gersich

I've been looking for the minimum required sports to join the Summit League. I'm sure it's in here somewhere. Can someone please post it again?

Passing on hockey at the Target Center. None of the people we used to go with are going either. I understand the NCHC made the best decision they could at the time going with the Target Center. But now it's a no brainer. Gotta move it back to the X.

If you're going to reply to him, please don't use quotes. It only clogs up this thread for those of us who have him blocked.
