We sit in 306 Row C. UND shoots at this end twice, and a great view of the player benches. Oh, and the Red Pepper is right outside our section. I win. Dave

As others have mentioned, it could be due to the style of play in college hockey (specifically in the NCHC; even more specifically vs. WMU) compared to the limited number of body/stick checks he's likely to encounter at the World Juniors. Dave

I'm not sure how much of an "aura" is coming out of the Gopher men's hockey program right now. Believe me, I get the historical significance and the draw of the Maroon and Gold (and the state pride thing), but only four NCAA tourney appearances (two one-and-dones, a semifinal loss, and a title game loss) in the last eight years have taken some of the bloom off of the rose. If you're keeping track at home, that's an NCAA tournament record of 5-4 since 2008. The watered-down Big Ten doesn't help either, and the long-time fans and boosters are restless. I can't believe Lucia got another extension. If there's an aura, it should be coming from UND. In the same time frame, North Dakota has made eight straight NCAA tourney appearances (they've actually made 14 in a row) with a record of 12-7 (four Frozen Four berths and a national title). Oh, yeah, and the boys from Grand Forks made four straight Frozen Fours from 2005-08 as well. Dave
