I bet they will shoot a TON of them off, but only a few will actually go off...

Silver lining of anemic offense: the REA didn't go over budget on the "smoke shooting thingie". So we've got that going for us, which is nice.

True 2K maybe, always was hard to tell, but we were all over that place! That was a high demand ticket for both fanbases. My point was that opposing fans not being at 1.5K at Mariucci Arena isn't the problem. NCHC schools seem to be doing relatively well, attendance wise, without the almighty UMN coming to their barns.

The first four games typically get 1-2 million viewers, even though they are on a network like TruTV that isn't super common in households across the USA. The FCS title game typically gets 750K to 1 million views. NCAA hockey final gets around 400K to 700K. These numbers are all available through some simple searches. One site is here: https://www.sportsmediawatch.com/ They don't call it March Madness for nothing. NDSU making the dance is HUGE.

Interesting.

Opposing fans never made up more than 500-1000 of the 10,000 plus that used to attend gopher hockey games. I attended enough to know. If anything, it's the exact opposite of what you wrote. Gopher fans loved seeing the UNDs, UMDs, SCSUs, etc. and showed up in droves to cheer against these rivals. That building used to rock when they scored against UND, their true fiercest rival.

Good for CC. Most definitely cheering for them.

UND has missed the NCAA playoffs two years in a row. Let that sink in.

Always liked Nick Jones.

WWRHS? What would Russ Hons say?

Smart play by UND goalie

They aren't a stellar team.

These announcers! Not Ciskie bad...but close.

GOALLLLLLLL! GOAL! GOAL! GOAL!

Or...Bait Shop is on TV, per a previous post.

Keane with an incredibly stupid penalty.

Great thread title, but also very sad at the same time. To answer your question, yes! I think they score at least one goal in this one.

Would love to have Hastings. But....he isn't a "Sioux". No chance they hire him. Too bad. #culture

Yuck. I can't believe how inept the powerplay is.

Tough loss. Hopeful for the future.

Let's go!!!

Let's see UND upset Omaha now

8000 Jack fans can't believe it.

WOW!!!! SDSU: DEAD!!!

The part about no money coming in was an actual statement I heard. Not sure if they knew about how the state funding component of running a university works.
