Are you done so you can hug your Sioux pillow and curse the little birdie for making the hockey team soft.

UND didn’t waste a lot of money putting logos on uniforms, buildings, and merchandise to say “let’s scrap it all and have nothing for a nickname”. You want to be involved, sign up to be fitted for the Fighting Hawk mascot outfit.

Give it up. UND is the Fighting Hawks...end of story.

So people should have been outraged that UND got rid of the geometric logo on the jerseys from 2001-2012 since every year they had the Brien Sioux logo they never won a national title. I swear your hatred for that little birdie on the shoulder of the jersey is beyond laughable it’s pretty sad.

I wonder how many people blamed the new Sioux logo on that down season. Bring back the geometric logo.

We aren’t going to play for a National Title every year, nor are we going to win it every year since we have won 8 national titles in over 70 years of hockey thats one title per almost 9 years on average. From 1964-1979 zero titles. From 80-87 we won it 3 times. 88-96 zero titles, from 97-00 we won it twice. 2001-2015 zero titles. See a pattern. It happens in every sport, college and pro. Tradition isn’t slipping away, we have one of the richest if not “THE” richest tradition of men’s college hockey in the country. I think you are overreacting on this season, this team historically bounces back and bounces back strong, and why, because we have the cathedral of an arena, we have the best hockey fanbase in the country, and we have 8 NC banners hanging in the REA which only Michigan can say they have more. Things will turnaround and we will be back.

REA opened in 2001, NCHC started in 2013, and the new name started in 2015, since that time we won a national title (2016), lost the national title game (2005), missed the NCAA tournament (2002), won the NCHC regular season twice (2015 and 2016), made the NCAA Frozen Four 8 times, won the conference tournament 4 times, was conference regular season champions 5 times. Not to mention the countless players that moved to the next level, and the multiple sellouts. But yeah there is no passion here, better axe it and bring back women’s hockey.

GF Central won back to back state titles...must be the Redskin name they lived, breathed, and bled. Even though it’s been gone since 1991.

That pic described every Friday night’s game.

Goaltending wasn’t the best after Belfour.

Reminds me of the tough Gino down seasons. You get the high of a national title (87)then it feels like the whole roof is caving in on you until the next shot of a title (97). That time was ugly especially when Minnesota was crushing you at home.

How are they not playing for the history of UND hockey? The name is the same University of North Dakota. It’s been there since 1883, that’s a lot of history and honor. Are you saying because of the tiny patch on the shoulder, and the logo being on media print and the nickname announced on the PA system is the reason players are out of whack? How about lack of firepower on this team or consistent goaltending, or recruiting, coaching, kids leaving early, or fans on their phones. There are hundreds of more reasons why this team is a dud compared to the 2015-16 team and it’s not because of the new name and logo.

Just curious...pretend you are the president of UND and Gov Burgum tells you to cut your budget( after Gov Dalrymple did the same thing). What do you cut academics or athletics?

Maybe McFeeley writes this to shut Lakesbison up from his FBS talk. So he won’t call into the show spouting off how NDSU would be the next Alabama.

With interviews from Brad Berry and the Lameroux twins.

You always do a great job!! Can’t wait to see them this fall. Thank you!!

Wow!! Next you will have problems with kids sitting on Santa’s lap, after all it’s a stranger in a suit. Did Thunder the bleacher creature attack you as a kid?

Mascots are geared towards kids and since you aren’t one, you can just be the pissed off adult with his arms crossed while kids are having a fun time. Sucks to be you.

So should the Vikings get rid of their mascot? Wild? T-wolves? Twins? Should all schools and pro teams get rid of their mascots because it’s just some moron running around.

That ice cream is the best!!!

I know some certain football players that love to pass around a petition.

Oh yeah, I forget they are in the SL too. Should be some great matchups.

Bison, Coyotes, Jacks and Omaha at home will definitely raise the excitement meter, as the Betty should be packed. Knocking off the Bison and Jacks in one season will be great to see.

Good game, sucks we lost, but now we say goodbye to the Big Sky and hello to the Summit League.
