  1. I googled "Mighty Dakotans" and found no hits. I googled "Fighting Dakotans" and found quite a few places where it has been suggested, including some of the hockey and football boards. It has even been bandied about on Siouxsports a couple of times.

    Since they are having to take the "Fighting Sioux" off the outside of the Ralph, just leave Fighting up and change Sioux to Dakotans.

    Not that much different than the University of Illinois Fighting Illini. UND Fighting Dakotans isn't too bad.

  2. No doubt you over pay for StubHub... I bought three tickets using StubHub for the UMD and UND game in the Oil Can last winter and I ended up paying 340 dollars for three tickets down by the UMD players box.

    I've already bought a pair on StubHub for the Saturday UND-UM game. $220.

  3. OK I called the Gopher ticket office. They said due to the large volume of tickets they may not sell individual tickets. They are selling 3 game ticket packages for $125, said they go on sale on Friday Sept 28th. Not sure if they include any Sioux games or not the guy wouldn't tell me a lot so just have to check back. Anyone here anything else?

  4. I have a pair of season tickets that I am going to break up and sell on a game-by-game basis. I am not looking to profit on the tickets as the prices I am asking would simply recoup my costs. They are priced near face value and are less than what they can be purchased for through Ticketmaster.

    The seats are located in Section 314, Row F, I have two seats available for every home game, and the prices listed below are per ticket.

  5. McCoshen would be a great addition. UND could be losing a lot of experience on D next year (MacWilliam, Gleason graduating, plus potential early departures), so adding a d-man of McCoshen's caliber would be huge. Crisfield and LaDue will for sure be coming in next fall, but does anyone know if Keaton Thompson is accelerating his education in case he is needed to come in next season? I know he was planning on doing so, haven't heard anything since.

    A big-time forward recruit to keep an eye on is Ryan Gropp of Penticton (BCHL). He's one of the top 96ers out there, and I was told that the UND staff was hard after a couple Vees' players (Wade Murphy obviously being one of them), and I'm guessing Gropp is the other as he is being heavily recruited by many teams. His dad played at CC, but he did attend Okanagan Hockey Academy (Dixon Ward, the MacMillan brothers).

  6. Any ideas why he didn't get picked up in the draft? Those are pretty big numbers to be overlooked

    He was a borderline NHL Draft prospect along with guys like Farley and Caggiula that didn't get drafted, and Nanne and Toninato, who did get drafted. If he plays a full year the way he played in the playoffs last sesaon, I bet he gets his name called as a second-year eligible.

  7. I have a pair of men's hockey season tickets I am looking to sell as a package. The package includes all regular season home games for BOTH Friday and Saturday nights, both exhibition games and any WCHA home playoff games UND would host.

    The tickets are located in section 314, Row F, and I don't have the tickets in front of me but I believe the seats are 20 & 21.

    I am not looking to make a profit. The invoice price was $1397.50 for the pair, and I am asking $1395.

  8. Q and A article with Shane Gersich on mnhockeypub.com:

    Link: http://www.mnhockeyh...cle/show/173473

    Gopher fans talk pretty highly of Gersich. Be quite the get if he commits to UND. Has very strong family ties with the Gophers though so I don't see it happening. I do like that UND is the only school he name drops as one of the schools that he'll be visiting. :)

    Like you said, Shane's bloodlines scream Maroon & Gold. His father Frank played as a Gopher and his uncle, Neal Broten, well, you know where he played his college puck...

    But never say never, sounds like he's very much the real deal. This past summer he led the USA Hockey Select 16 camp in points. Here's a glowing review of his performance.

  9. Zane Gothberg was simply amazing in the nets last night for the Fargo Force. A Lincoln team that completely dominated his Fargo Force squad had to go to OT to move on in the USHL playoffs, mainly due to Zane. I believe he made 46 saves or something like that in just a little over 65 minutes.

    Did you go to the game last night? If so, what did you think about the recruits on the Lincoln side? I thought that even though LaDue and Johnson didn't figure in on the Stars' scoring last night, they were both pretty good. LaDue has impressed every time I've seen him play - he's really sharp offensively w/out being a liability, as he gets involved in the play quite well while maintaining his defensive responsibilities. Johnson is just a heady player, really good awareness, very good at finding the open areas of the offensive zone. He can be a bugger on the forecheck too.

  10. My understanding of the rule is, if he does not sign with Montreal before the 2012 draft they will lose his rights. That is probably why you will see Montreal pushing very hard to sign him after his season is done at UND. I could also be wrong too! :silly:

    He becomes a free agent only if he withdraws from school. The wording of the CBA states that if the player "does not remain a bona fide college student" through the graduation of his college class, his drafting team has exclusive negotiation rights "until the fourth June 1st following his selection in the Entry draft." If unsigned as of the fourth June 1st, he then becomes a free agent and can sign with any team at the beginning of the NHL free agency period (July 1st).

    Danny Kristo is a 2008 draftee, as are Joe Gleason and Andrew MacWilliam, and the fourth June 1st following the 2008 NHL Entry Draft is June 1st, 2012.

  11. Everett's best player is defenseman Ryan Murray, a big-time prospect who is probably the top blue liner in this year's draft class. Top 3 NHL draft pick.

    That being said, if your plan is to go one & done, wouldn't UND be the choice? I would argue playing against more physically mature players in the NCAA instead of 20 and under players in the CHL would prepare him for the men he'll be facing in the NHL night in and night out come October of 2013. Heck, maybe he'd like it at UND so much that he'd pull a Toews and stay two years instead of just one...

    My guess, by the way, is that he opts for North Dakota.

    Jones had a nice night tonight back in Ann Arbor: 1G, 1A, +3 in a 4-3 win over Youngstown.

  12. I also would not be surprised to see him end up at the US NTDP.

    He fared really well at USA Hockey's Select 15 camp last summer, where he was one of the camp's top scorers. From what I've read his work ethic is second to none, and he's got the genes - his dad, who was also his coach at Omaha AAA, spent a handful of years in the NHL and is a former 1st round pick.
