I still think they'd send UND to Colorado over Mankato. The difference between location is nothing since it's a flight either way. They'll send UND to Colorado to get more attendance there and Mankato to Allentown.

Yeah, if we're both 1-seeds, we'll go Allentown. Would be really interesting if Mankato is a 1-seed, too. Three western teams and two of them will need to go east or "Midwest" LOL and one could very well be the No. 1 overall seed.

Not really talking about DU, honestly. Talking about us haha. Our fanbase will bring a lot more to Colorado than to Allentown.

I'd put my money on the committee moving Mankato to PA where attendance won't matter. Pack Colorado or add more to PA. I think they'll try and pack Colorado.

If we and DU are both 1-seeds, we won't be there. But, if either one is a 1-seed and the other is not, you can absolutely book it, we'll be there.

Another week, another round of weekly NCHC awards for the Green and White https://fightinghawks.com/news/2019/12/9/mens-hockey-und-nabs-two-more-nchc-weekly-honors.aspx Scheel -- Goalie of the Week, Judd -- Rookie of the Week. Awesome stuff.

I put this under "Other Sports", but wasn't sure. Mods, feel free to move. Pinto on the US WJC camp roster. Lots of NCAA love on the team.

Plus -- "Ralph Cox, UNH" -- Ralph Cox at the US Hockey Olympic Team tryout, 1979.

Kawaguchi named national player of the month for November. Really special first half for this kid. He's been so impressive. Absolute killer in the clutch spots. Keep it going, Guchi. https://www.nchchockey.com/news_article/show/1069709

Exactly how I feel. Haven't had a stinker game all year and I expect that continues.

Nothing against WMU, I just love the way this team is playing. 4-2 Good guys in Green Caulfield, Blaisdell, Adams, JBD

As far as a player who gave everything he had, balls to the walls every shift, I think Stechy did this every time. Comparison wise, I think Stech just completely maximized ever inch of God given talent and his work ethic made him a UND legend, in my eyes. Certainly not a knock on any of those players listed, but in terms of maximizing his talent with this work ethic, I have no problem placing Stech up there.

Wouldn't shock me whatsoever to see him pot one. Kid started out and continues to be rock solid defensively. Last handful of games has seen several plays with some really nice offensive skills, too.

Been so impressed with him since he got moved up to line with Pinto and Michaud. Definitely due. Stealing your call

I like this call. I'm with you. Friday -- Judd Saturday -- Michaud

Right, which is why I said the combo of TALENT and effort was what was unique about him.

Absolutely. A majority of the bars in GF have NCHC.tv. You should get it, too!

Might have been the best of mix of talent and pure motor as any as I've ever seen at UND. He never, ever quit on a shift.

I mean, JBD is pretty much an all-around defensmen. He really lacks a deficiency, IMO.

Last real two games of 2019. Can you frickin' believe that? Couple good wins on the schedule for the Broncos versus Michigan, Denver and even BGSU. Gotta bring the big boy pants to the Zoo. Keep it rolling.

I feel ya, but three teams did play. Looking at the stats of the players, the only one who may have not gotten it was Scheel, but it is what it is.

Well, if they do that, they are making their team worse. I think he gets in, for sure. JBD is a stud.

UND sweeps weekly NCHC awards. First team to do that since 14-15: https://www.grandforksherald.com/incoming/4800615-UND-is-first-team-to-sweep-NCHC-weekly-awards-since-the-2014-15-season Guchi gets his third already this year and is the first forward for UND to earn the weekly award three times in a season. Boeser won it twice in 16-17.

https://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2019/12/02_Four-NCAA-Selected-to-Team.php JBD one of four NCAA players selected to Canada's WJC camp roster. Awesome for this guy. Totally deserving, in my book.
