Still looking for clarification on this. Did anybody else receive their tickets in the mail? This was in the communication I received from the ticket office:
Tickets may be picked up starting immediately at the UND/REA Ticket Office at Ralph Engelstad Arena. We will NOT be mailing out any of the ticket packages. We are asking you to pickup your tickets as unlike traditional UND Hockey tickets, NCAA regional tickets have no way of replacement if lost, damaged or stolen.
Mankato wouldn't have to play St. Cloud in this scenario. With 6 NCHC teams, the NCAA won't worry about first-round NCHC match-ups. They did it a few years ago in Wisconsin, and they'd do it again.
Vandy with another goal tonight, his 8th of the season. 5 goals in the last 7 games. Here's an article about his season with Philly:

Moorhead celebrated 50 years of hockey this weekend. Former players Jason Blake & Brian Lee were recognized, along with the other Spuds who played in the NHL.

After OD's hat trick, I went to the Sioux Shop to get 33% off a new hat. Went to check out and was told the NCAA made them stop that promotion. Apparently it promotes an individual player, which is against their rules.
Another positive from the weekend. 5 for 8 on the power play, and 9 for 9 on the penalty kill. (And yes, I realize LSSU doesn't have very impressive special teams numbers, but these are great numbers for UND.)
Heard Kevin Gorg on KFAN yesterday. He said something along the lines of "Minnesota will have no problem with Michigan State this weekend" and alluded to an expected blowout.
