I was confused for a second bc I thought you meant Mark MacMillan until I got to Hyslop

You don't like money, do you? Those are atrocious odds for you. I'll take it lol

Gotta agree. I don't know the guy and don't agree with every opinion he shares but regardless of the reasoning, it's pretty silly to have a thread that's attacking the guy for something as silly as a twitter handle changing. As Stoney said, if it's actually a concern of yours you could ask him instead of doing the old passive aggressive move and talking about him behind his back.

^ Exactly

NCHC's record vs Big 10 since formation of leagues: 10-9-1 15-2-0 15-1-1 9-4-4 For a total W/L of 49-16-6 and an absolutely dominant win % of 73.2. All of this despite UND's less than stellar record against Big10 opponents, yet we want to join their league? Sounds like a good way to start playing down to the competition and being ill-prepared come NCAA tourney time.

Sweep would put us in fantastic position so let's just get it done!

DERP Maybe if the Big was any good they'd have more than one frozen four appearance in 3 years and actually have a national championship DERP!!! (Sorry, just making a point) It's hilarious "making a point" for you involves singling out one team(that just so happens to be the board you're on) in a 4 game stretch and extrapolated it to 4 years of league play since the BIG and NCHC were formed... try harder

I've checked with my sources and they have confirmed that this is, in fact, a good sign.

IMO I think that sort of acts as a sort of metaphor for Big10 vs NCHC "Come on over to the BIG UND, we have more money! Btw the product on the ice might suffer due to weaker OOC records, priorities at BIG institutions etc.... BUT WE HAVE LOTS OF MONEY!"

And yet, people want us to join this conference where hockey comes(at best) 3rd for every school in the conference. I'll take the NCHC and its proven track record for producing successful teams every day of the week.

Wait... do we know JJ is for sure good to go this series??

I see... I misunderstood your post to mean that Groupon people were the only ones held up and was curious. The wristband thing was kind of annoying last year but I was able to get in on time for the game. I'd show up 20 minutes early or so to avoid.

They made you wait in a line for an hour and a half because you had Groupon tickets?

Correct, the NCAA is not allowing regionals to be played at campus sites and has opted for "neutral sites" to play regionals in. As stated, Compton Ice Arena was the exception because they were the only school that submitted a bid for the Midwest regional that year.

This a serious question?

Incorrect, UND is 6th in 46.8% of scenarios if they sweep, 7th in 32.7%, and 5th in 15.1% http://collegehockeyranked.com/forecast/pwrchart/north-dakota/oneweek/

Yeah, guess my point was that it wasn't an apples-to-apples comparison. Last year we won because of Boeser who is still on the team(allegedly) and Gersich who is a stud this year. If I remember right, Cam played a heck of a series too. We'll need all of them with some Jost mixed in!

If a few hundred people signing an online petition don't get this game moved, nothing will.

Last year's Ferris State team says hi

However, I don't believe we had either Schmaltz or Caggiula for that series... and they didn't have Jost

Win 5 or 6 of the last 6 and I think we would be in regardless. Any less though and we at least need to win the 1st round series. DISCLAIMER: No math was done to come to this conclusion

There's 20 months until this game... tickets will come available as life happens for the majority of the people that have tickets. I have no idea what will happen for me by this October, let alone a year from than. If a person really wants to and keeps their eyes open they'll be able to find tickets for a decent price.

I think many people would forgive some of the faults Target Center has if the team had shown some success(like making it to the championship once). However, replays will sure look a lot cooler with the new scoreboard!

I had a different reaction. If he's playing on a line with Toews and scoring goals he made the correct choice. Good for him.

The law of physics make those views conclusive. Did the puck stop moving? Yes. What possibly could have stopped it? A stick. Do we need to see the exact piece of tape that stopped the puck? However, it did results in a nice Parise goal so that made it better for me at least
