Definitely agree with this. With that said, even if we don't, it will be disappointing. That doesn't change our pipeline after this season, however. UND is recruiting very. very well right now.

Again, it's just not true. Many, many, many bars play UND hockey games, every single game. Again, so much anecdotal evidence for you to want to beg us into your premise of us not being an elite program. I don't really understand your motivation. If you don't enjoy UND's current recruiting pipeline, I don't really know what else I can say to convince you otherwise.

This is just not true.

So, I'm confused.... you just said that we wouldn't be elite anymore if we don't land a couple of the guys on this list someone on here put together. Which one is it? Can it be both?!?!?!

LOL @ the idea of a Big 10 education for a blue chippa recruit. *** Moves goal post, again ***

*** Moves goal post***

Who on here is saying that NCAA titles don't matter? If you can find ONE, please show me because that is dumb. Most on here are saying that it's WAY harder to win a title now than it used to be. There are those that don't want to recognize that. So be it.

We already landed a top tier recruit in Boisvert. So, if we get one more, two more, etc.... would you then consider us elite? Feels like we keep moving the goalposts to satisfy people getting grumpy when we don't win a title.

Yes, I'd think it was common sense, but I don't have an indelible proof of that being how it works at that particular Scheels. Hockey is a JV sport compared to football on many, many levels. So, there is a large population of people who don't watch UND hockey. With all of that said, UND hockey and NDSU football are basically 1 and 1a in regards to the most popular sport in the state and it goes back and forth all the time. Your anecdotal look at the Minot Scheels hardly gleans any insight in whether or not "no one cares about UND sports as much anymore compared to the Ag school" I'd say the logo is certainly not helping sales of UND apparel, no doubt. But, I don't think the two options you listed are the primary reasons.

It's football season. NDSU is the toast of the state in football. Pretty simple, honestly.

This made me LOL

Hey man, I'll give it a go.... Sweatt, Vlassopolous, Crabb, Testawuide, Krushelnyski, Stowkewych, Duggie Lagrone, Fejes, Kivihalme, Gooch, Cruickshank ... I left a couple of good ones out, too!

I always thought that was CC's thing. Wamzgans always stood out to me lol.

Diego Buttazzoni?? Ok.... so, we have to have this guy on our team. I don't even care if he's any good

Shocking lol

Wtf?! Are there COVID restrictions? Watching the game the other night, I just assumed, but that tweet would indicate to me that there aren't. That's ridiculous.

And McInnis. We're still for sure in on him.

Complete waste of time trying to rationalize him in this vein, FS4L

I was wrong. It was 4-1 late in the second, but you get the gist. That was a solid pop from the crowd. Goodness he could shoot

*sigh*

One of my favorites was a game against Denver. Down 3-0 and started a comeback that I believe began late in the second. Andrew Kozek ended up with a hatty and when he scored the fourth goal, for his hatty, the place went nutty.

I just saved a bunch of money by switching to Geico. So, that's nice.

I understand the desire for some of the old. The Old Ralph was a special, special place. However, the REA has been nothing but a massive positive for UND and the hockey program. I'd love to hear it louder, consistently, but I think people are mistaken to think that place hasn't been earsplittingly loud on many, many occasions nor is it not one of the loudest barns in the country with an incredible atmosphere.

Facetime bay bay: https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/matt-greene-ed-belfour-to-return-for-one-more-shift-during-2022-23-und-season I love these. Two more legends added to the fun.

Kleven had a solid game. 16 minutes and a +2. He was very aggressive when Germany tried to push the play and shut a lot of stuff down in neutral. Played a nice, physical, responsible game. Had a nice clapper in the first, too. Happy to see it.
