Section 312, row C. Will be 5 or 6 of us!! Anyone know any way to get a hotel somewhat near the rink that isn't $400/night?

This is gold

It was $298/person roundtrip. However there wasn't any nonstop flights from Mpls to Tampa that got me there early enough on Thursday to feel comfortable. And I'm not about to connect somewhere after hearing about the nightmare of people watching the game in the Chicago airport last year.

Officially booked my flight from Minneapolis to Orlando, renting a car and driving to Tampa. I just went to Vegas and it wasn't kind so I am saving money any way I can. Do we know for sure which end of the ice UND shoots twice on?

Yup, I watched some player interviews after they came back to campus and they frankly seemed happy to just be in the NCAAs. I know this is deriving a lot from interviews but there could be the mindset where they subconsciously win the HE tournament and settle for just "being there". On the other hand, UND expects to be there every single year and knows the work has just begun. That's my "over-analyzation" for the day.

On the flip side of the coin, when some of the teams we've had like that burn out in the NCAAs people comment that maybe they got burned out playing in must-win games throughout the 2nd half.

On second thought, maybe the BIG could swipe Miami and the NCHC adds ASU? Miami seem to be complaining about travel lately.

ASU, probably very soon as they want to get a conference for recruits

In short, yes Also, I will be forwarding your scouting report to Coach Berry for review, thank you for your contributions to UND hockey.

Is that good?

Good youtube video to post, thanks SiouxScore. A few things that I noticed right away: - 1st goal was nice but seemed like one pass too many that luckily got by the defender - Not a fan of that fly-by knee down celebration the Northeastern player did at :33 - 1st goal let in by Northeastern was weak, let's see LJ score from some bad angles - 2nd goal by Umass Lowell was weak as well, put a bunch of shots on this goalie - Seems like their goalie is their weak point (27th in GAA at 2.258 and 45th in Save % with a .912) In summary, let's light the lamp on these guys

I'm using Internet Explorer. It may just be this computer. I can try again on a different one and report back later today.

When I hit save picks they all disappear and I can't load them back.

Usually it's the dogs that "roll over"... I'll show myself out.

Doesn't Berry know the atmosphere will be way better at 1:45?!

Agreed completely, just look at Schierhorn from Minnesota winning Goalie of the Year with something like a .910 save %. A point against the BIG is not a the same as a point against ECAC, NCHC, or Hockey East.

Denver has shown they won't even bring a dozen.

Stop sugarcoating it, tell us how you really feel.

I'm going to save my down vote unless I find out this wasn't satire. Please be joking...

Huh... and this whole time we thought he was picking the early start time to screw the fans over. What a weird concept for the UND coach to do what's best for the UND hockey team.

Been to a game in a while? A good portion of the crowd had a loud 'Let's Go Sioux' chant going on Saturday night.

Nope, it's only 1 ticket for both games.

I'm sure that's exactly why Coach Berry chose the afternoon game. Do you know we would also have more rest for the Championship game by playing the 4pm game? UND fandom is obviously really difficult if we're complaining about which game our own team chose to play. I can think of 4 other teams that would be happy to play in either game this coming weekend.

Wow, those prices seem pretty steep to me. I think between tickets/hotel/gas I'm probably spending about $150-160 total. Compare that to the double occupancy rates at $499 and I'm feeling pretty good about my trip

But that was a home series. What about the earlier series in Duluth? That had to have been a different story... Right?
