Good to know, thanks for the update.

Pretty sure I know the answer, as I caught the ‘so long folks’ sign off on Saturday Night on MidCo but I am guessing they are not televising NCHC First Round in Denver? Has anyone else seen/heard any other reports of TV options or is it NCHC.tv only? CBSSN has never televised this round of the playoffs. It’s never been an issue of course because we have ‘always’ had FSSN or MidCo. I will be out of the area so internets will be my only option but I thought I would ask for the benefit of other fans who may be curious.

This one is destined to go three. I wish it were in Grand Forks, but it’s always fun to see these rivals meet up in the postseason.

Here’s hoping that large UND fan base in Colorado fills Magness up. It’s St. Patty’s Day Weekend so wear some green and represent in the Mile High City.

Mismash listed as 19th skater - may be seen on PP?

The regular season road ends this weekend with home ice chances hanging by a thread. Counting on the Boys starting off strong and earning a W tonight, 3-1. (And go Redhawks)

Touché

Totally get this...but if UND goes 1-1 next week, 2-1 the next, and 1-1 the week after they could still be in the hunt. Point being, if UND gets to St. Paul they are likely the only team playing with their season on the line. Something to be said for that.

There are bound to be a few of us along the Red River who have a shared interest in this event. East Side poised for another run in “A” and Moorhead with a tough draw in the first round vs U of M Prep, er, Edina in “AA”. Always enjoyable to watch it unfold from the X.

Big IF but does winning a game in St. Paul boost our standing in this hypothetical game? follow the IFs here..if UND wins a first round series vs W Mich, it will likely draw St. Cloud — assuming Denver and Duluth survive. The Huskies are much better than us this year but in a one game situation (where UND has more to play for), anything is possible. Would a win over #1 SCSU give us the at-large lift we need, especially if the chalk (favorites) win other conference tournaments? Could this be our .0001 opportunity?

Denver’s win, couples by UND’s loss, leaves a black cloud over our heads as the boys will be on the road in two weeks. It’s become a place to commiserate and wallow in the muck of mediocrity.

Good energy in the barn tonight. You can sense the urgency. Now let’s get more shots in this second period.

It’s been six weeks since I have visited The Ralph for a game. Let’s see that stick salute and send a message to the NCHC and NCAA that the boys are still in this thing!

Fear. The. Fork.

File this in the “missed logo opportunities” folder. Halifax Thunderbirds (Lacrosse). I would love this look for UND (minus the lightning bolt of course). The feathers are a great addition and the stern look is reminiscent of the ‘disappointed dad’ from the St. Louis Football Cardinals.

Pat Sweeney not calling the Central - Red River game tonight?

Well it was on the front page of the sports section, not buried on page 3 under a MSUM Dragon’s women’s hoops article as it usually is.

Embarrassing headline in The Forum this morning.

Fitting that this game was on Groundhog Day because it feels like I am watching the same game over and over.

...and don’t look now but CC is starting to play some good hockey. We talk about home ice for UND but there’s a realistic chance the boys in green could be #6 seed. Plus UND has two games out in Colorado Springs.

21 in Pairwise

Any chance of home ice is on the line tomorrow.

SMH ... this team

Every time they do a cutaway of DU bench I think that Rafi from “The League” is one of their assistant coaches.
