Wait, wat?! He's kidding, right? LOLOL

Oops

I'm excited to see how the boys play this weekend. I expect it to be a "full" house and we seemed to play with a lot of juice a couple weeks ago. With DU in town, that only adds fuel. Get it done, boys!

I do!

Completely agree in general, but this one is brilliant! I love this. Let's go. Build that rivalry! I thought that entire post was hilarious and made us look silly. But, that's ok... we are silly! The first part defining UND as goons is worn out, but I did love the comments about our board. Give it to me more! Bring it on, LetsGoDU. I have a blog that I plan on firing up again once I finish up my MBA again in three weeks. I'm all for some back and forth

Right? And 6-2 since the pod and 13-4-1 overall haha. Feels like pretty much a season-long extended winning streak. Ok, not consecutive, but pretty dang good.

UND back to No. 1 in the USA Today Poll. No. 2 in the USCHO. https://www.uscho.com/rankings/national-polls/ https://www.uscho.com/rankings/d-i-mens-poll/

Absolutely! In a one-game tourney, this gives everyone in our tough a$$ league a legit shot. Great stuff.

I frickin' love this. Such a smart way to do it. Basically a warm up to the national tournament.

It's funny, I think I liked the new guy's voice better, but my goodness, he was NOT a good pxp guy.

Very, very skilled top two lines, but no depth. I fear they'll take another step back once Caufied and Holloway leave. But, those boys can frickin skate.

Thanks for the generalized statement in comparing the 2018-19 team with the 2020-21 team. This team often buries chances seeing we have the 6th highest scoring offense, much differently than 18-19. If you don't believe UND dominated (or whatever term you choose to use -- controlled, carried, etc.), then I don't know what to tell ya, guy.

One and two, sure, minus the "or better" part of No. 1. Three... that's, well, shall we say -- debatable. Saville gave up 9 goals on 79 shots (UND had an ENG on Friday) for a 88% save percentage and had a combined 4.5 goals against average in the two games. I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin...

All the "downvotes" aside, does a one-goal win at home in which they had 3 power play goals in 5 chances and got outshot by 20 really reflect a wholly positive view on UNO? I'm not sure it does, man. All things considered, UND absolutely dominated that series when 5-on-5 and unequivocally should have left Baxter with two wins.

Yes, this. I think it's a smart general outline, but say if BU gets to 12 games and is 11-1 or 10-2, I certainly wouldn't be shocked to see the NCAA make a change. I'd support it if they had some qualities wins, actually. I just want to see the best teams get in, by what standard, I guess, I have no idea haha. Such a strange year. The NCAA has never really been an arbiter for "fairness" (needless to say) and with the name clout that BU brings to college hockey, it would frankly be shocking if they didn't get in if they have a solid resume but only 12 games. Just a thought.

Depends on the who the regulars are, I guess haha. Definitely interesting, though.

Series definitely has split written all over it.

Yep. It'll be interesting to see how good they are. Looking forward to the next four games against them, as well.

A team like AIC is a near lock this year as you really can't throw out a team with nearly 20 wins in a year like this. So, if they don't win their conference tourney, there goes another spot. DU and Lowell are in a tough spot.

Absolutely good for the game. They aren't in our league yet. Not speaking about this season as they are at least comparable this season, but more in terms of pedigree, tradition, recruiting, rivalries, and consistency. I could see it happening, but not close yet.

Hahaha yikes. Fair enough.

I see plenty of value in reading other people's perspectives about a team. It's ok to disagree with each other.

I agree that UNO is above average, but them being opportunistic, essentially needing 5 power plays to win, does not put them on our level. We absolutely controlled play, top to bottom, both games, when it was 5 on 5. I would be absolutely shocked if they won the NCHC. Frankly, I see no chance.

Blows my mind. We've barely been in their orbit for what, 7 years now? Sure, Blais was there, but good lord, not even close. We play similar styles and they could eventually become a very strong rival, but right now, they are so low on our list.

Does this guy actually believe this? He HAS to be trolling for a reaction. I really dislike UNO, but it's not even remotely close to Minny, Wisconsin, DU, Clown, BC, Michigan, BU. If he's serious, I nominate this quote as an early 2021 dumbest-take-of-the-year favorite.
