Now we'll see what happens with the current players. If the players were wanting a change...then we won't see much portal movement. If the players liked Berry's direction for UND...then we're gonna see a wave of portal entrants and recruits decommit. Gonna be an interesting portal season for sure. I'm not sure how that portal exemption works exactly when a coaching change is made...are UND players allowed to enter portal at anytime before season starts now? Like starting now and ending in October? It's normally 45 days from March 30...unless their scholarship changes or there is a coaching change.

I don’t think that’ll happen. But he’s a good choice for interim.

Change made. Looks like the SS.com posters got their wish. Now a change needs to be made soon, get all the players and recruits on board. Time to move

I’m thinking no. I think WMU comes out of that bracket with somewhat ease. UMN / WMU could be a good game but WMU has the much better goalie and UMN doesn’t have anyone to matchup with Bump.

Bracket looks about what was expected. NCAAHockey

We all need a little more humor in our lives. We certainly can't rely on UND hockey post-season games to keep us entertained any longer.

I think it would stay the same...it hasn't changed in a decade now, why switch it up now?

Ha, would be cool to see the two NCHC teams barrel thru the ten B10/HEA teams.

Here is what CHN predicts: Manchester 1. Boston College vs. 16. Bentley 8. Providence vs. 9. Denver Toledo 2. Michigan State vs. 15. Cornell 7. Boston University vs. 10. Ohio State Allentown 3. Maine vs. 13. Penn State 6. Connecticut vs. 12. Quinnipiac Fargo 4. Western Michigan vs. 14. Minnesota State 5. Minnesota vs. 11. Massachusetts Some interesting matchups there, and should be some good games. Potential DU vs BC and WMU vs UMN regional final games could be good hockey.

WMU outshot DU 29-11 from the 3rd period on...pretty impressive performance. They're gonna be a really tough out in the tourney.

That is shocking. Shocking, I tell you. Will be cheering for WMU and Maine the rest of the way...and then I hope Bump signs the day after the title game and UND never sees him again.

Howard sure exploded this year.

Me too. I wonder if any other NCAA programs have a GM role? Or if those responsibilities all fall on the coaching staff. UND needs to make it happen.

Damn. 40th USHL goal for Zellers. As a comparison, Boisvert had 36g in 61gp last year...Zellers with 40g in 45gp this year. If Boisvert sticks around, those two could make quite a potent PP together...

Oh man, tied. Wow.

Dang Bump is making it interesting. 4min to go.

That graph is for the 26/27 season after St Thomas joins the league.

I think you mean Mr Tom Clifford.

Has the NCHC announced what the format will be yet? Only part that would suck is if you lost in the first round then didn't have any games for like 3 weeks. Like what happened to UMN this year.

Man DU is in playoff mode. Making this game look easy. Neutralizing Bump like we certainly couldn't. DU would have embarrassed us if we made it past WMU.

Pohlkamp. We wanted him. Just couldn't land him. Carle worked his magic and Berry didn't stand a chance. We sure could have used him this year.

OSU with 2 late goals to pull even with MSU at 3-3. Might be heading for OT for the B10 champ.

But if he was hammered 95% of the time that he was posting...maybe?

I picture him more like Gretzky.
