I honestly think people are saving $$$ assuming the boys will be in Vegas

I don’t believe so

Tickets from season ticket holders that didn’t want or know they had to hold their tickets just hit the market. If it’s still like this Friday morning I’ll be concerned. At least now you know every seat that’s taken is someone that made a conscious decision to be there

2016 on SS.COM(probably): "If you give up 10 goals in a weekend to the Pacific Rim Line you're going to struggle against the Kyle Connor line for Michigan." A few weeks later:

Never said that, but the conversation was geared toward who would we rather face. And I pointed out that Holy Cross is a significantly worse team than Augustana in large part due to a goalie that can and has stolen games for them. I have all the confidence in the world in UND and they probably would beat Augustana but if they show with anything less than their best(goalie lets in a softie, dman falls down leading to a breakaway, etc), I like their chances against Holy Cross more vs having Auggie pack it in with their stud goalie. The margins in the NCAAs are razor thin so I’ll take every advantage I can get. Survive and advance

<sigh> never mind

No you can’t sleep on anyone as the field is so deep but UND might be able to squeak by Holy Cross with their C- game. Meanwhile Auggie has one of the hottest goalies in the country Josh Kotai sporting 5 shutouts and a .936 save %

I'd argue it'd be the equivalent of seeding malpractice to give the 1 overall seed essentially the 15th ranked team vs the 34th ranked team in the country.

Agreed, Zakreski has to play. Dude is coming back from what I assume was a broken leg and has already scored 2 goals, one being extremely clutch.

From the few scenarios I ran, to get the #1 overall seed either UND needs to win the Frozen Faceoff AND have Michigan St beat Michigan in the Big Ten Championship OR UND can lose to UMD or the title game AND have Michigan and Mich St lose in the semifinals

If that happens, it'll be a rematch of the Frozen Faceoff in Vegas.

Yes please

We also are 100% on the PK in the last 7 games, but I agree. There's no doubt in the world we're the better team 5 on 5, no need to buy into their "rivalry".

Wonder if it's a Cole Spicer situation where the staff asked him to wait another year and he said no thanks

That goalie haunts my dreams. We were a Spunar left pad away from being really nervous in that game.

2020-21 team was better and I’ll die on that hill. Added Gaber, Sanderson, Kleven and Jammer

Exactly, it may be UND bias but I believe we have essentially 2 head coaches on staff and we greatly benefit from it with player development and recruiting. I can’t imagine he won’t be an extremely attractive target for the next program that cans their head coach.

Don’t forget his associate head coach that will likely be a college head coach at a different program shortly

Just go back to the final five format once we have 10 teams and play the tourney at the Ralph. No one will take issue with that 😁

My first thought looking at the new format. Yikes that’s a long time between games. Even losing in the semifinals leaves a an additional week gap from previous years.

Yup, at round 9 or so just come down with speed and rip a slapper

Just as important as the 1 overall seed, Michigan and Michigan State are showing chinks in the armor losing to non-tourney teams

Replay looked like it hit him in the lower stomach but also looked like he actually tried to turn a little so the stick didn't hit him hard. Looks like the Bronco actually saw him skating and decided to stage a performance... and the refs agreed

Homer in net tonight
