Sean Burke comes to mind for me. He beat his wife terribly in 97 and was allowed to play in the NHL afterwards and now he is the goaltending coach in Vegas.

I agree with you, its really weird that Gary Bettman/NHL is drawing a line with him. If anyone should be banished from the NHL it's Gary Bettman. Him keeping the Coyotes in Arizona for as long as he has is painful enough.

I have the real deal game used blackhawk and geo jersey and they were well worth the money spent. both jersey can be found if patient and willing to spend a good amount of cash. However, like I said these are nice jersey for the average jersey collector or person who doesnt want a north dakota one.

You are 100% correct on that. People claim they want the old logo back and will pay anything for it but when it comes down to brass tax, they want to pay pennies on the dollar.

At what point is it bullying from Isiah's mother towards Mitchell?

Sean burke beat his wife but yet still got to play and is now director of goaltending for the golden knights…

It can all be high quality but it’s still not authentic. All his jerseys are reproductions by other companies who didn’t make them in the first place. Again, good stuff for the average fan but for people who want the real deal, not that great but better than that Chinese crap.

People like me want exactly like the players had but to the average fan they are good. Much better than those damn Chinese jerseys you see everywhere

That’s because midco is doing the game due to them doing games for the summit league. Unless UNO does a deal with Midco, this will be a one off. Everyone using the NCHC is seeing the school production which is standard policy.

Yes

I thought I heard that he was. I guess not though. My bad

How huge of an addition is Ryan LaDouceur to this staff?! Man does he have a quick eye for challenging plays. I say he is the unsung hero of this team!

Good. Kid paid his dues and should be able to do what he loves.

Conference play is starting tonight, so that means we are all starting fresh. Come out with the foot on the pedal and don't let up!

I sure hope you are right but why does that have to be our programs MO?

We’ve seen this before from Berry’s team’s. The sweep from canisius in 18-19 is what kept us out and the loss and tie to Union and the tie to Alaska the year before was not helpful either. Call it an overreaction if you want to but it’s been seen before. Does the team have time to turn it around? You damn right they do but they need to figure it out quickly because now it’s conference play and you know every team is being their A game (which we have lacked the last 4 weeks).

But those 5 crappy games can cost us a tournament bid.

No, I was actually against it saying it then and I am against saying it now. Firing Berry leads us down a path of "who do you get" and at this moment there isn't anyone better, IMO. However, as a coaching staff I think there are things that they can do better. Also, coming out to start the season and having very inconsistent play from weekend to weekend is not good. The Quinnipiac series should've went our way, we got very lucky against the Gophers in that we split and then we get out played in Vegas.

If the program wants to talk about "culture and tradition", then winning a national championship should be the expectation by our coaching staff and players every year. To do that, you need to come out the gate running on all cylinders. This notion that it takes time for players to adjust with new players is garbage. Other teams are in the same predicament, and they seem to adjust just fine. Yes, we may be 3-3-1 at the moment and its early but all 7 of our games have been against non-conference foes and they looked like crap against them. Something needs to change and it needs to change quick.

No but they should be able to keep all of their ticket revenue money.

This notion that we would have won had the 2020 season not gotten cancelled needs to stop. Were we the best team in the regular season for college hockey that year? Yes we were but that's all we can say is that. As you all know the NCAA tournament is never a sure thing and we could've easily lost in the first round. I am not a huge Berry fan but who do you think recruited those kids that played on the 2016 team? Also, if we get rid of Berry, who do we get? Dane? Karl? Sorry, but those two don't seem like head coaching material to me.

Not happening. As an affiliate member we MIGHT get a very small percent of money but that would have to be negotiated before joining, otherwise we get jack. Also, we would have to play by B10 rules when it comes to conference play. I don't know about you but I don't want Thursday night or Sunday afternoon games because of football.

Are you high? Who do you think was doing the recruiting when Hak was here? If you're going to knock the program at least have an understanding of it...

That's fine and neither am I but other sports programs get screwed out of the deal and it sucks. Not sure why you downvote my post over my statement when we basically agree.

They signed a new usage agreement here back in 2020 due to the university being unable to run it the way it should be ran, which is the big problem. I know the arena needs money to stay up to date but after all the bills are paid and some money goes to a rainy day fund, the rest of the money goes elsewhere and this is where the rest of the teams get screwed.
