Tough luck for CC, outshooting SLU 41-14 tonight but losing 2-1. Would have been nice for the NCHC to get that win, and for them to open their new arena with a W. Owen Power had 16 points last season in 26 games. He already has 4 pts (1g/3a) after one game this season.

Rizzo with a goal and assist in his debut for DU tonight. There's one I wish UND would have been able to hold onto as a recruit.

I lost my decoder ring for his posts.

Both players you mentioned played very well tonight. Them having big seasons will play a large part in seeing how good this team can be in the end come playoff time.

Better than allowing 4 goals to Mercyhurst, I suppose.

All frosh fourth line.

Especially after last nights shellacking.

Some good stat-padding for SCSU

1-1 after 2 15-10 SOG UND

Gaber PPG

MSUM up 1-0 over UMass

0-0 after 1 SOG 9-4 UND

Gonna be a fun season with Sanderson. Great cross ice pass for a chance.

My connection has been working well on my PC

Too many grindaz. Not enough blue chippahs.

Two transfers on top line. Interested to see how those two do with how many goals they put up last year.

Would have been great to see Adams come back for his 5th season this year. He would have been a great addition to the offensive production.

Us against the government! Bring your guns, it's gonna be a fight!

Both USCHO and CHN have released their preseason polls: https://www.uscho.com/rankings/d-i-mens-poll/2021-09-27/ https://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2021/09/29_CHN-Preseason-Top-10.php USCHO has us at #8 and defending champs UMass at #1. CHN has us at #5 and UMN at #1. CHN I feel has us a little high to start the season...same thing with UMD, who they have at #3. By the end of the year UND could be a potential title challenger, but I feel we could have some kinks to work out with all the holes in the lineup to fill.

And they weren't even picked to win their conference.

Haha, yes.

My feeling is that the arenas are just trying to make it as easy as possible for them to still be able to host events such as this in the current environment. As much of a distraction/inconvenience that it may be, it seems more and more venues are moving toward these types of policies, so if your goal is to not show any medical info to anyone, it may become more difficult for you to go to any sporting event. Hopefully all this crap clears up soon (not likely), but I'd rather see them do something like this rather than just cancel the game entirely and we don't have any hockey to watch at all.

Maybe some people just want to see some hockey.

I don’t see this affecting our fan base at all, regardless of how many people show up.
