  1. Article on Mac Swanson. Can't wait to see what he can do at UND! https://www.inforum.com/sports/fargo-force-star-mac-swanson-talks-breaking-records-impressing-und-fans-and-silencing-doubters?fbclid=IwAR1FvKcUqgkW80vczc0qT6BoKBiniS5E03yip-QUBvZhzmk_XGwJVGqipDc I wonder if a team will pick him in the later rounds of the draft.
  2. That'd be a dang big portal grab for Miami if he ended up there. I would be much less surprised to see him end up at ASU.
  3. I get some of the reasoning with Blake being drafted in 2021 and both Snuggerud and McGroarty in 2022...and with Carolina needing to replenish their entire feeder system with them getting an AHL team again this upcoming year...just one of those things that you'd normally pencil in a 4th rounder to stick around for at least 3 seasons in a normal situation. Of course, Blake had a pretty damn good year too.
  4. That would be big for Michigan. Sucks that Michigan and Minnesota both get a first-rounder to return for their junior seasons, but our star 4th-rounder leaves after his Soph year.
  5. That'd be a nice pickup for someone, he dishes it well.
  6. Dippin Dots: Ice Cream of the Future
  7. Welcome back sagard. Been a long time.
  8. At the very least, we wouldn't have to go round in circles with this conversation for the rest of the summer. If all that matters is national titles...all those teams have had the same success as UND in that timespan. Unless we're hanging banners for tourney appearances and tourney wins now.
  9. College hockey season done. Countdown to next season has begun. McLaughlin - Berg - James Swanson - Wilkie - Perron Boisvert - Jamernik - Strinden Kunz - Schmaltz - Croal Extra: Montgomery, Littler, Klee Livanavage - Zmolek Emery - Wiebe Strathmann - MacDonald Extra: Komzak, Jubenvill Sempt / Hedquist Extra: Johnson We'll be strong up the middle. The top 6 will be very good, and still allow you to put skilled players like Strinden & Kunz (two guys I'd expect to see even more progress out of) on the 3rd/4th lines. Swanson & Boisvert might start on the lower lines, but I could see those two move up the lineup pretty quick once they get used to the speed of college puck. That 2nd line would be fun to watch with the skill of Perron & Swanson, but they're both on the smaller side, so pairing them with a bigger 2-way player like Wilkie could help.
  10. Looking at Herald articles and watching post-game interviews, for the most part it's pretty typical questions of any college or pro athletic teams by local media. As far as admitting fault, how often is a game loss entirely the fault of the coaching staff...or the players...or the game plan? Similarly, after a win, how much of the credit should go to the coaching staff...or the players...or the game plan? The vast majority of the time, it is a combo of all those factors and others that contribute to any win or loss. And heck, maybe even some good old-fashioned puck luck <gasp!>. As far as having your question asked of Berry...if the media won't ask, and you really want to know...you can always ask Berry yourself. His email address is publicly posted on the official Fighting Hawks website along with all the coaching staff. From personal experience, the coaching staff is usually pretty willing to discuss hockey, even with commoners such as us. https://fightinghawks.com/sports/mens-ice-hockey/coaches bradley.berry@und.edu dane.jackson@und.edu karl.goehring@und.edu dillon.simpson@und.edu
  11. I'd guess that Hedquist sees half the starts next season with TJ. At least Hobie was recruited.
  12. Any NHL/AHL job openings that will attempt to poach Carle?
  13. BC picked a hell of a time to break their winning streak.
  14. Well...at least it stays in the NCHC. Sorry B10 & HEA...maybe next time.
  15. He was a sieve for a good chunk of the season. This turnaround for him is crazy.
  16. They'd have gone thru their own Beanpot, like our regional back a few years ago.
  17. Zeev is so good. If he sticks around for another year, which I'd guess unless whatever team that drafts him signs him immediately...he's gonna be dominant next season.
  18. Wow what a bad giveaway. Fowler bailed him out.
  19. Correction...the ability to win one high stake game is a question mark with this program currently.
  20. DU player looking for that call...literally turned to make sure he was coming.
  21. That is all brand new information.
