I wonder if Central will be favorite to repeat or did they lose too much firepower.

If the REA's reason to do this is not to piss off the Fighting Sioux forever crowd that's pretty sad. There will be less and less Sioux jerseys in the stands every year, so what is their point?

Same goes for those butthurt over the fact that UND is the Fighting Hawks, and the logo is on the jerseys. So suck it up when the announcer says Fighting Hawks and quit the booing.

The jerseys is not owned by the REA, so they don't have a say in it, if they did it would have a Sioux logo.

Its said to be on the shoulders replacing the interlocking ND. Looks like the REA isn't ready to move on.

Jerseys have a Hawk logo, center ice will have no logo for the first time since the building opened in 2001. Different how?

Anything to not support the new logo. Pathetic. They can have a Sioux logo, an interlocking ND logo, but not a Hawk logo. Looks like the Hawk logo will be on the ice in 2030 when UND takes over the building.

She was one of those "I cheer for the Bison but I like UND hockey" fan, but when we were engaged we went to a UND football game in the rain at Memorial Stadium, so I knew she was a keeper for not backing out of it.

Wife got it at the Fargo Scheels for my birthday. (She's a Bison fan so it must have hurt paying for it).

I have this one in my yard, with the neighbors Bison flags and signs surrounding my place.

10am Thursday single game tickets go on sale. $25 for adults and $15 for kids.

I can't wait to hear the new sound system. When they played a video you couldn't understand what they were saying. Hopefully that's all fixed.

So why are they so hesitant on a Hawk at center ice, or how about a "Here's your University of North Dakota Fighting Hawks Scoring", it's like they are afraid to say Fighting Hawks to the crowd. How about renaming the Sioux shop to the Hawk Shop. Without much Sioux gear there isn't a point to call it the Sioux Shop.

If you are talking about when he was AD there was still the Fighting Sioux name announced at games (Here come your Fighting Sioux, First down Fighting Sioux, etc), the Sioux name was on the inflatable helmet, the words Fighting Sioux was in the Endzones a little tiny Sioux Indian head on the chest of the jersey which really isn't that noticeable to the crowd wasn't going to create a divide. If you are talking about when he was coaching, the Sioux logo (I believe it was the blackhawk logo) was on the sleeves, was let go by Kendall Baker.

Laugh all you want, the divide is alive and well and as long as the REA pleases its "Fighting Sioux Forever" crowd by not implementing the logo around the building or ice or announcing the Hawks name on goals, penalty kills, etc. it will stay that way. The Alerus is overwhelmingly accepting the Hawk name and logo including a scretching Hawk noise after a TD not surprising seeing more and more Hawk gear in the stands and the chants of Let's Go Sioux being silenced as not many join in. The REA feeds the divided.

Aren't you curious what other logos that other company made looked like? And with all these nickname committes that were formed the logo was chosen by one man alone with no others input given.

Every UND fan fits this category. Would we love to be the Fighting Sioux...yes. Did the NCAA (mainly NDAG Wayne Stenjeum) screw us in the settlement....yes. Did Ed Schafer unfairly choose a logo without others voting on it or seeing other choices....yes. Should people who cheer "Go Hawks", or wear Hawk gear be ridiculed, or looked upon as the enemy....NO!

Looks good.

How is ORU still in the Summit, they left then came back, why? No other school is close to Tulsa.

Don't forget about the "it's halftime time to go home" crowd. That is the biggest problem rather than start times. How to keep people in their seats unless it's 50-0. Just think of all those people who missed the second half of the USD game, a double OT thriller. Also have they ever thought about swapping start times with hockey for a weekend? Instead of 7pm for hockey have it at 2pm, and move football to 7pm. No women's hockey to interfere with ice times.

NDSU was also known as the Farmers.

Why paint a retired logo? If Scheels arena can have a Hawk logo on the ice the REA can too. They need to accept the new logo even though they don't. It's gonna be a rude awakening when UND takes control of the arena and makes changes they (UND) see fit.

Go on Facebook, and every time there is a post by UND hockey (their official page) there are tons of fans bashing anyone saying anything positive about the Hawks name. Lots of Sioux forever, you mean go Sioux, the Hawk logo with an X for an eye among others. It's not bad when it's on the UND basketball, football or volleyball pages, very little Hawk bashing, but it's mostly on the hockey page. So saying the hockey only fans have moved on is very premature.

Aren't they all.

Is that the eye or the puck.
