Pump the brakes on anointing Jan as the next coming of Patrick Roy

Appears so. Will be interesting to see how much loan money wont be getting paid back to various entities.

Time for Pete to get the old food truck fired up again?

Horrible play calling. Lets keep throwing to the same guy who is blanketed by #5.

Most of the media is already trying to bury parts of the story that dont fit the narrative they seemingly want to push all too often.

On stronger Sioux teams of not so recent past, only James would have cracked the top 3 lines. I like the others as players/contributors but they just can't be something they aren't.

If it hadn't already happened, this marks the unfortunate turning point of when UND became just another one of the good teams in college hockey, no longer elite. Given the current environment of NIL and portal it ain't coming back either. Boisvert is exactly the type of guy that used to define UND. Skilled and plays with an edge. Him leaving is an indictment of how far this program has slid back to the pack.

Good point. But another point is 5th year senior captains also aren't healthy scratches for not one but two games down the backstretch of a season especially when the team is struggling to maks the playoffs (at St Cloud series). Often where there is smoke there is fire.

Not really old news if.....assuming this info is true.....UND loses one or two of its best players via portal due to a 5th year captain that ended up being a cancer off the ice/in the locker room.

Berry has gone stale. A change is in order. I think he showed up at the right time to get the talent over the hump. But its not working anymore.

UND was outplayed. Two bad turnovers/failures to clear the puck were huge by Juberville and Perron that ended up in the back of UNDs net. Underclassmen for sure, but still those are basic fundamental plays that have to happen. Wish Boisvert stays another year but wouldn't blame him for leaving. Pretty much everyone else on this team is replaceable so might be time to blow things up....coaching staff included.

I like 29-8-27 playing together. The line isn't necessarily great at defense, but instead of spreading 3 guys that can't score across 3 lines to drag them down you just bite the bullet and have one line you know has no chance of scoring.

I think when alot of people hear casino they have visions of Vegas casinos that are relatively clean....have nice restaurants and spas....and cool concerts/residences by slightly over the hill musicians. That's not the reality for the vast majority of native casinos in the tri-state area. Grand Forks does need growth but this wasn't the way to do it. The community dodged a bullet on this one. Any doubts go visit one of the area casinos sometime. They aren't exactly Circus Circus during their prime.

Sacha has NHL written all over him. I just hope that when he leaves after this year it is to go pro. If UND loses a guy like hin to another program it's ominous for the future of UND hockey.
