Not sure I'd want my kid lacing them up at PSU... gotta think this is going to hurt their recruiting.
The best time to be at a program is right after a scandal breaks out. Then you know there is nothing strange or illegal going on.

actually we have more than enough Hockey Fans to have a AHL Team http://sports.espn.g...tory?id=1948623
I'd still like to know How many Alumni attend games at the Ralph on average
I think the vast majority go to the Ralph to see good Hockey - than just because their a UND Team Sport
Those stats are from 2004.

Like goon said, it's run by the federal government. It also loses billions each and every year. Obama also wants to build more of them.
Recipe for success?
Wow. Maybe you should read the literature. He wants to build high speed rail systems not just more amtrak trains. These would run separately for the most part and would therefore be less prone to delays.

There was a buzz in the crowd when he said it, but since we are no longer rivals it's pretty easy to move on. I've also had my UND logo wear confused for Notre Dame but I forgive people quickly and move on. Perhaps that was what happened with the polls a few weeks ago - coaches thought they were voting for Notre Dame
haha which would make since because they are on a tear. Yea it's not that significant, but kinda funny.

I'm surprised that no one is yelling about the ref saying, "North Dakota State has won the toss......I mean North Dakota has won the toss." The boo birds came out fast and furious.

They'll be wearing their standard uniforms, eh?
Haha no. The throwback uni's look legit from michigan and notre dame. The Irish one has a clover on the helmet and shoulder strips and the michigan one has numbers on the helmet.

Televised game, Thursday night, coming of a 3-8 record..................
4 of the last 5 home openers have attracted over 10,000 fans............
I'll be the optimist and say more than 10k will show....................
All of our home games are televised. That shouldn't make a difference. And to be fair, last year it the first home game was like a month after school started so students weren't as excited about it.

I have a friend who ownes a car dealership that sponsors a hole-in-one-win-a-car at a yearly fund raiser. He told me that nobody ever won, so one year he didn't insure against it. Of course, a guy holed one.
Classic!

The Predators will never leave Nashville, NEVER!
He is talking about their division, not actually leaving Nashville.

Can you make it so you can't rep your own post? Kinda odd when a thread is a started (so it only has one post) but it has a +1. Sure enough, clicking on the rep shows that the OP repped his own post.
But what if you realize you said something idiotic and want to neg rep yourself lol.

I did ? where was that?
Another person stated it, i dont have the time to go back and look anywhere. My source tells me 2 of your 15 posts or w.e. were about Hextall signing already.

Yep you caught me i'm a troll.. I just come on here to post things just to see if i can get a reaction from guys/girls who post thousands of things about the program.. I will not tell you my source so then i guess im a troll.. Just thought i would share it.. also if you can go back and look @ my 15 posts you will see that.
Well you said the same thing a couple days ago and it still hasn't happened yet.
-
My sources close to the program said that Hextall has signed will be leaving early
I've stood outside the Ralph a lot. Does that make me close to the program? I would like a real source before I believe this.

He had atleast a 3.0 last semester as he was on the honor roll. Where are you getting your information?
He is making it up.
-
The only reason he should stay is if he has a spot in the top 6 for next year already otherwise he doesn't have a whole lot left to prove as a 3rd liner in college hockey. He also needs to get used to the longer schedules of pro-hockey and playing the first half of the year in the AHL could do that for him, then he would be called up after the all-star break and given his shot much the way Vande-Velde was brought up this year. That is how I am guessing phoenix is looking at this.
Yea that is good. As long as this is how Phoenix is thinking it would be great. I just hate seeing players getting lost in the system who leave early. The longer schedule and strictly just hockey could really help him and I am excited to see how good he could become.
-
I would disagree with that statement. He is good in the corners, can effectively clog the neutral zone, can chip in some offense, is an effective two-way player, and can get under opposing teams skin. I think we forget how on multiple occasions he completely changed the play of DU and Minnesota just by his yapping and aggressive play. He will be up with phoenix on a 4th line role at some point next year as he is not that far off. He will never be a top 6 player but he will be an effective grinder in today's NHL. I think we should be a bit classier about players who decide to leave after their Junior year and not knock them down for all the reasons it won't work. We were so good this year because of our incredible depth. Blood, Kristo, Gregoire, and Hexy are all developed enough to be playing in the NHL at some point next year.
You make some great points. He does however need more time in the weightroom and some more work on all of those things. He is effective against college teams, but how will he do against bigger and faster players in the NHL with his size? I have seen bursts of speed and really good play but can he do it consistently enough to make a spot on an NHL roster and maintain that spot. Personally I say no not yet, he still needs to learn. But when he does leave I will support him and not hold it against him. Why not just stay in school another year and develop more as a player with the help of coaches who do a pretty good job of developing players.
-
Your probably right.
I am pretty sure I am right. I feel like he should not leave. While its smart because you get paid to play. He is not even close to being NHL ready, especially bolting early.
-
Hextall is gone.
-
Don't they need to be 25 yrs old? I think that's why Read stayed at BSU(?)
Read stayed at BSU because he wasn't drafted and if he waited til he was 25 he could eliminate the restrictions on his free agency. I believe.
-
Wouldn't that be the other way around then??!!
Yea since we had it first but they are bigger and better I suppose we should probably just go ahead and change that too.

NCAA slaps Hostile and Abusive logo on Official NCAA Championship Merchandise. This is odd, considering my Milwaukee Frozen Four T-shirt has the interlocking ND logo. Well, I suppose that isnt the only reason its odd.
Anybody realize the Notre Dame one looks eerily similar to our new ND logo.

Stay out of the box and things should work out.
You mean stay out of jail.

Immediately after reading, OUCH! Not good for our fine state. After I thought about it awhile...maybe these folks will be pleasantly surprised by our fine state.
They seemed to be enjoying themselves...Also let's not forget, they only go to visit Fargo.
Student Government Email to Students
in UND Nickname
Posted
I thought administration was no longer allowed to use the term sioux. This email is hostile and abusive. Also on a side note, the petitioners haven't said anything to me and I have walked by a million times. I wonder who feels harassed? Could it be the anti-nickname people who were handing out fliers two tables down from them and then laughing at the reactions of all the people they asked as they walked away. Yes I sat there for about 30 minutes watching this and was pretty intrigued by the way the people who say they feel offended and feel mocked by the nickname were mocking other people.
