10477. More than I thought there would be.
Last year's exhibition vs. Regina had 11,576.

Not true. Yes they have it close to full most nights, but they rarely reach full capacity at REA anymore. Heck, against CC on Friday you can't say there was more than 7500 people there.
I'm sure the weather had nothing to do with the lack of fans on Friday night. Many people come from several miles away to these games.
Might want to check this link:

I don't doubt Hakstol and UND have done everything in their power to continue the rivalry as a two game series each year. He'd be an idiot not to. It's definitely one feather removed from his recruiting cap. Granted the program stands on it's own as a great one with great facilities, but not being able to guarantee a yearly chance to pound rodents may give some iron rangers (and Kristo types) pause on attending UND. I'm not at all saying it a big recruiting disadvantage, but it certainly could be a negative for some recruits.
The bottom line is, from a financial standpoint the U of M has much less to lose than UND and they are making that obvious with their matter-of-fact approach to the negotiation.
Not sure I understand. UND will still have 11,500 fans in the arena whether the opponent is Manitoba or UMTC. Which opposing team has brought the most Gopher fans into Marriuci the past 10 years?

Just talked to Directv and they told me the price for NHL Center Ice would be 4 payments of $14.99 for this season. Under $60 for the rest of the season is not too bad if you ask me. While it's not free (that just wasn't going to happen), I don't have a problem paying this.

Friday - Rocco
Saturday - Rowney

I would think Green Bay or Milwaukee would be logical choices for the new WCHA. Seems like that would be somewhat centrally located and would make driving an option for several schools' fans.
-
I don't see any way that it won't be free. I've ordered it the past few years but there's no way I'm giving them $1 this year. I'm very excited for the season to start and will be watching come opening day, but won't spend any money on the Center Ice package or other merchandise. If I lived in a city that had NHL hockey I would not spend any money on tickets this year, either - I would/will just be watching on TV. That being said, if DirecTV tries to charge me for the Center Ice package, they're nuts. I plan on getting it for free this year.
This is what it says on the Directv site:
NHL CENTER ICE is currently not for sale due to the lockout. As soon as a resolution occurs between the players and the owners, it will once again be available for sale. Considering games will be missed prior to the lock-out being resolved, an adjusted price will be determined when NHL CENTER ICE becomes available for purchase.

Will sell these for $30 each.

I ended up with an extra ticket for tonight's game. Section 116. PM me or email fargosioux@cableone.net if interested. Will sell for $30.

Mario Lamoureux has 8 goals in his first 20 games in the ECHL this season. He only scored 17 career goals in 148 games at UND.
-
Not a very classy post-game interview by Jeff Jackson if you ask me, specifically his response to the waved-off goal. We've been on the wrong end of plenty of those calls, and it seems like Hakstol usually deflects the discussion to other areas of the game.

I'm happy with Saunders as well, but Dell gets too little respect. When it counted most, he allowed 2 goals in 3 NCAA tournament games. He faced 67 shots, with a save pct. of .970 and GAA of about .667. Some of the earlier years may be attrbutable to faltering goaltending on the big stage, but not 2011. He was also outstanding in the Spring of 2012; although the numbers aren't as strong, he carried an overmatched team to the Final Five title. Among the many reasons the 2011 failure is a shame is that Dell won't go down in UND history as one of the best to play the position. Which he was.
Couldn't agree more.

Not totally correct, the U-18 rarely plays in the USHL, the majority of the USHL games are played by the U-17 squad.
Thanks for the clarification. Didn't realize that.
-
I'm not going to say the gophers are the best team in the country, but I don't want to underscore that USA team either. That might be one of the better U-18 teams that they've ever had. A couple bounces, they beat UND, one more save, they beat Minnesota.
Yeah, some of these teams go in slow motion when they play the high schoolers, but at the same time they used to go in slow motion and beat these kids 6-0.
Interesting to note that this USA U18 team has only won 2 times in their first 11 USHL games.

I see the game on channel 626 on the Directv online guide. Does anybody know if the game will be aired anywhere on Dish Network?

UND still gets the money for those tickets that were sold, don't they?
To my earlier point, I don't see how UND has more to lose than UMTC by losing this rivalry (as the previous poster claims).
