Berg was literally a finalist for Defensive Forward of the Year, an award voted on by the coaches in the league. And the coaches aren’t allowed to vote for their own players. So either all those coaches are wrong, or you see something that they don’t.

Bonzer and Holth aren't the money behind the donations, they're simply the CEO and COO of the collective. Any of the more wealthy business leaders in the community (and outside the state) can funnel their money into the collective to be disbursed to the athletes.

That's a bummer man. I remember having fun at the couple I went to. Good group of people talking Sioux hockey!

CC nation breathes a sigh of relief

Yeah, not ideal on either front. I'd guess we see Ludvig and hopefully he can shake off any rust right away and lead this team for a few games...

Heck of a comeback for Cornell...scored 5 goals in the 3rd. We could have used one of those 3rd period efforts today.

Ludvig or Hobie next weekend? Berry's comments on the goalie situation both for tonight and next weekend: https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/hobie-hedquist-gets-start-in-frozen-faceoff-but-ludvig-persson-may-return-for-regionals

These ECAC games are all over the place. #40 beats #9? #26 beating #15

+1 to all this

That was literally your word from the previous quote. Participate. Regarding replacing Berry, I would hope the AD would start to look elsewhere if this lack of postseason success streak continues. That said, I highly doubt that would happen anytime soon. Especially after he just led the team to the Penrose. I'm not sure how long of a playoff streak it would take before a change would happen. I am sure that for many posters on here, a change will be demanded long before it actually happens.

That'd be a doozy. UND just gave the NCAA an open invite to send them East, so I'm guessing that's what'll happen.

They certainly have a "bit" more talent that UNO. And they're playing well. Wouldn't like that matchup, for sure. I'd prefer QU, they tanked today as well (to a much worse team than UNO).

That's not fine with me...and pretty much everyone else on this board. But I know you won't let that stop you from mentioning it in every single post.

If they hadn't beaten us last month, they wouldn't have the same PWR level, but they'd still be in a position to win tomorrow to make the tourney regardless. Hoping that they can prove you wrong next weekend.

Yeah I wonder if the plan was to start Ludvig tomorrow if the team won today? Either way, not much going right as we head to the tourney now.

I did a quick search, found the last Fire Hak thread from 2015 (like a month before it was announced he took the Flyers coaching job). A lot of the same posters, for sure. And yes, you were a participant in that thread. No worries though, as I said...it is just how things are around here.

He drew a penalty. That's about it unfortunately. Gonna need a lot more out of him next game if he wants to keep his NCAA career rolling forward.

UND fans, in general, are a fickle bunch. And I'm saying that as a lifelong UND fan. I recall the threads calling for Hak's head every single year even when he brought the team to the Frozen Four only to lose again and again. Berry certainly doesn't have the postseason success as Hak did, even though he got that elusive title. But I'm guessing that even if a new coach was hired, the same UND fans would be calling for the new coach's head if he didn't win the natty at least every couple years. It just goes with the territory.

Sure. But that still doesn't explain calling UNO a bottom feeder...they're a tourney team. Got it. Someone will have to update the Wikipedia page then.

Even the year after he left?

I wouldn't describe a 3 seed in this year's tourney a bottom feeder. Some teams don't match up well with other teams and their style. This UND team has certainly shown that with CC & UNO.

What if neither happens this year?

Thankfully not many more years of the X.

Someone else got a hatty instead.
