Exactly. This is REALITY. Some staffs/institutions will navigate this more effectively than others. I hope my favorite team, the University of North Dakota, is one of them.

It's pretty striking to see the difference in professionalism, talent, and neutrality in this Midco crew vs Alex and the UND crew.

Another close loss. Crazy season.

Seriously, F$%# that guy.

Let's go D!!!

Yeah, it's very noticeable who he is cheering for!

Agree. They are a few players away from being special.

LOL. Truth! UND actual name for the past 6 years: Fighting Hawks UND name chanted and worn by some: Fighting Sioux UND new alternate hockey jersey: Nodak I suggest we bring back Flickertails! "Flickertails forever...clap clap clap clap clap"

Absolutely support it. Just like other sports at UND.

Spend thousands to watch a college team made of 18 to 24 year olds play a niche sport. Again, that is your prerogative. Zero judgement, but hard to understand for some folks like me. I hope they enjoy Nashville tonight though!

UND isn't great right now. They may come together at the end of the season. This is a regular season, non conference game. In no galaxy would I spend money to attend this. 17,000 disagree with me, and that is just fine.

Watched it. Yes they were.

Yep. Most people are right in the middle, thankfully.

US is 7 to 10 days away from where Italy is. Have heard some accounts from healthcare team members there that are very upsetting.

If you don't have to go out right now, don't. If you need life necessities, go get them. Sports and entertainment are on hold right now. This isn't about living in a bubble. This is a basic public health strategy that someone who works in healthcare should understand. As geauxsioux mentioned above, we are fortunate to live in a less densely populated area. I'd hate to live in a larger city when the numbers get up there.

You know that's not what we are talking about. That said, sanitize when you get home, dont touch your face while there, etc. Easy steps.

Flatten the curve. Avoid large gatherings. As mentioned in this thread, don't go to the ER for fever and cough, don't call an ambulance for routine issues. Call your healthcare facility's hotline if you have questions. There are some people like Oxbow out there who are going to choose to "live their life" and ignore the pleadings of the experts. Fortunately, there are many more people who are choosing to listen to the national public health experts, and are staying home right now. Healthcare professionals across the nation thank you for helping to flatten the curve.

I tend to lean this way also. Hanging a banner this year would be like hanging one in previous years such as 2011. UND was the best team by far that year, but got beat by Michigan in that infamous Frozen Four game. This year, UND got beat by COVID-19. The Penrose white banner is a great accomplishment.

Without green glasses, what would you say the odds were that UND would have won it this year? These one and done tourneys are so unpredictable as we all know. I say they had a 50-50 shot of winning it all. Other teams I think had a great shot this year: UMD, Mankato, BC

Let's go!!!

Can't wait to see the green version...
