Your definition of a contender year in and year out is very different from mine. Noticed you didn't mention 10-11... Wait, would they have gone on a run if they did NOT get beat by Anchorage? Last year UMN got throttled by in state competition and missed the NCAAs... Doesn't make them a contender. The down year you're comparing it to for UND saw them get to the frozen four. It may be a thin margin but that doesn't mean that everyone gets to be a contender.

Like last year? And 2010-11? I get that you like the Gophers but the contender year in and year out lately has been the team whose message board you're on.

God I hope you're right

Pretty sure Brock Boeser's knee had more to do with it than the ice

It was better but judging by what I saw the puck do on the ice... yes

That's a surprise, middle schoolers are usually so much more reliable than that.

Because they suck In all seriousness I'm not sure if anyone knows for sure but I'm sure there's plenty of speculation about not developing, state of the program etc.

Nope, Caggiula was doing beer chugs on a picnic table outside Fergs instead

...or every time they skate out for an offensive zone faceoff

Emilio is staying at CC buy not playing hockey, that's not a ringing endorsement for the coach or state of the program. How many years does Haviland have left at the current win % and rate of attrition?

I can use the downvote too Stone Your rep on this message board is going down the tubes one negative rep at a time

Other teams would be super "jelly" of that line <shows self out>

Agreed, a one and done at UND is a rare thing

I really doubt that's credible, especially with Big 10 confirming their acceptance.

Mind blown... seriously

It looks like the Vegas game will be October 27th, 2018. If I add 2...carry the one... I'll have to make a sign that says 10>5 for that game

They'll have a little bit of talent on that team

Not sure I completely agree with that, I think Mankato is a significantly better team since Hastings took the helm. Will they be competing for the Penrose right away? Probably not but I bet they compete for home ice at least. Time will tell if they're accepted.

If they get better, maybe we'll consider their applications as well

Dixon Bowen sure does have quite the jersey to fill picking #9, that'll be a tough transition for me.

Based on the response, you may not want to give up your day job.

No bites yet, surprising... trolling hard today

Really? They've probably been the 2nd best team in the conference since it started. Why don't they belong?
