It's our minimum bar and I don't think anyone believes that's changed.

Definitely. I'm just very hopeful this season, particularly.

Looks like we have a roster set. Glad to see no one else leaving. Good stuff. We're getting closer, ladies and gents!

Hahaha if I'm afraid of anything in this world, it's certainly not that, Mr. Reagan

Man, you guys are old lol.

Wait, I didn't think the MM emails bit was a joke, though haha.

He did the winky face, I suppose.

Ah, so the fresh one with the black background fired up the natives.... see what I did there?

What was the picture before the change?

Yeah, I don't know, man. My college buddies and I have been talking about the various logos being on the banners since we were all still in school. Not sure how important we are haha.

There shouldn't be. It's absolute effing nonsense.

LOL people are ridiculous.

Wait, so the REA is in a conspiracy to get rid of the Brien logo? The REA, who has a bajillion of that logo within the building? Pffft lol. Goodness, I love the internet.

What are they saying? So, so, so stupid.

Definitely thought the same thing when I saw the picture. They are definitely going to be less prominent. But, we'll see.

They gave them to me. They'll look awesome in my man cave

FANTASTIC. Those look so awesome.

I expect a playoff run, this year.

Yes. Of course there are examples either way, but production is and always has been, a very good indicator of success.

Fair, but Stratton is neither of those types of prospects. I don't think it's "good" that Stratton isn't coming, I just don't see it as a big problem.

I'm not worried about our goalie situation at all, right now. I think with Scheeler's injury he'll likely be here three more years and unless something massive changes, at minimum, two. He played as well as any goaltender I've ever seen at UND last year. I'm disappointed about Rowe, but it sounded like he was never a for sure thing anyway. With that said, our D-corps is going to continue to be absolutely stocked for the next few seasons and pairing that with Scheel could lead to an impressive run defensively for our boys. Think 2015-16. Sucks that we will only get Keane for three years. I agree with you and his locker room status. Stratton. Meh, I agree with the numbers. Don't think there was a very high ceiling there. It is what it is.

Sound like there's possibly one final "decision" to be made. Not a last minute recruit. Albrecht was always coming in.

Freshman + Michaud officially announced: https://fightinghawks.com/news/2019/7/3/mens-hockey-und-adds-six-newcomers-to-2019-20-roster.aspx Albrecht, Blaisell, Caufield, Frisch, Pinto, Michaud I like it.

I see this as two potential happenings: 1) The remaining schools are trying to elevate their standing and creating a stronger conference top-to-bottom -- this wouldn't necessarily mean the end of UAH, UAA, UAF, they'd just need to find a new home. 2) They see another restructuring coming with a new team (or two? or three?) coming into the fold by 2022. We'll see.

Whoa, indeed. So, that means the Alaska schools and Huntsville are going bye bye?
