-14 consecutive years of having a player drafted in the NHL.
-6 players drafted this year.
-13 players played in the NHL this past season.
-Last two Stanley cup champions had UND players, and they both were captains.
-At the top of their conference each year.
-Highest attendance in all of college hockey and most professional hockey.
-13 players have won the stanley cup (I am not sure how many coaches have won it).
I would say that is a premier program.
