Was talking about Eaves last two seasons.

12-47-13 over last two seasons at a program like Wisconsin is really bad. Eaves ran the program into the ground.

Whoever wrote that should look into writing speeches for our Vice President.

#1 seed hosts. 4 team regional double elimination 2 games Thursday 2 games Friday 1 game Saturday 1 game Sunday 1 game Monday if necessary Works great for Baseball with the admittingly huge difference being Baseball can get it done in 1 less day due to teams being able to play 2 games in a day.

Tom was not the best at vetting his Sky Spies. I remember the look on Charlie's face when Tom let us know that Charlie Zahomo reported 22 degrees and a couple inches of snow in Hallock, Mn or wherever.

It sounds like he had contaminated Vitamin D. I don't think he should be criticized for taking Vitamin D. In fact that is something our government should have pushed back in February of 2020. I am certainly not going to argue with a doctor about it's effectiveness but I was advised by a doctor friend to take it if I wasn't already back in February of 2020. I have seen several studies by doctors and experts in infectious diseases showing that while Vitamin D probably isn't a viable treatment for someone who has Covid and won't prevent someone from getting Covid it seems to certainly lessen your chances of dying, being hospitalized and/or having a severe case of Covid when you do become infected. I always see the "experts" saying the studies are not peer reviewed so we will just call it a coincidence that people deficient in vitamin D are 15 times more likely to have a severe or critical outcome. I am sure the reason it isn't peer reviewed isn't because a year's supply costs about $35-40 and there isn't any money to be made.

Their argument is they have played against college competition. But anyone who watches their games can see that while the colleges may try and win the game they do try and win the game without much hitting and physicality.

I believe they originally had Cagguila slated to come in the following season but with Brock Nelson blowing up his sophomore season like he did and Grimaldi dealing witha serious injury the previous season and being unsure how quickly he would recover they brought Drake in a year earlier than planned.

Went down a rabbit Hole on the 60th Anniversary BCHL All-Time team. It would be hard to imagine someone having a better Jersey Collection than Campbell Blair Accumulated in his career.

Arizona State has hit the portal and put together a hell of a line with Sillinger and the Jackson brothers. Could have them for 3 years.

I like Herbst. Always have. Pretty good recruiter. I assume they have told him that Dagwood's is closed.

I forget how the Covid/Scholarship dollars work. Do Senden and Hain count against the 18 schollies?

Unfortunately many in our fan base have drifted into the old Gopher fan mentality. It is a combination of arrogance and ignorance that leads them to believe that other college programs only exist so that UND has someone to play against.

Speaking of Mr. Berenson. How long would he have lasted at UND? Took him 7 years to win a conference title. 12 years to win a national title, followed by another2 years later. Then he was coach for 19 years of their current 24 year drought. Won 11 regular season and 10 tournament championships in a weak CCHA/B10 in 37 years.

I would also mention that two of the oldest players to ever play in the WCHA were Steve Debus who was a 25 year old junior and Dan Woog

I used to tell my Gopher buddies, "Congratulations, you have the best team in the country with all your players from 1 state....is there a trophy for that? Maybe hang a banner."

I like Calder. He probably has the best wrist shot on the team and was scoring at a decent pace before the nasty slash he took against Minnesota. I don't think he was anywhere near 100% the rest of the season.

He did show a little offense in his final season in the USHL in Fargo. Also put up some pretty good offensive stats as a freshman. He has played with quite a few offensive minded defenseman while in college..Makar, Del Gaizo, Zac Jones, Kessel, and Morrow so he possibly played the role they needed him in.

They probably won't be stripped of their title but Kansas, Louisville(who was stripped of their 2013 title), Arizona, Memphis, LSU, NC State, and Auburn likely should not have even been eligible to play in NCAA post season. This is what happens when you have a corrupt, morally bankrupt organization like the NCAA investigating their dirty Basketball and Football programs. Even with FBI wiretaps and mountains of evidence they have done nothing now for over a 1000 days because these schools make them money. NCAA-"hey Kansas, your basketball program is corrupt and your coach is slimy and has committed numerous infractions." Kansas-"Noted. Thank you for the heads up. We are going to give him a lifetime contract."

Kansas wins. Entertaining game to watch. Serious question. Will Kansas still be considered the 2022 National Champion in 2025?

Depends what the NCAA sanctions are going to be at LSU. Memphis, Louisville, Kansas, and Arizona are in the crosshairs as well. Name school though so most likely UNC-Charlotte will get probation so everyone learns their lesson.

Is it someone whose team is still playing?

Dryden Mckay committed to Mankato just shy of his 20th birthday and was 21 when he started his college career. Nathan Smith was a 3rd round pick so probably wouldn't be considered a blue chip recruit by those on this board. He was also 21 when he played his first game for the Mavs. Mankato has done a good job at developing older talent. I agree UND needs to find a mix between the BU/Michigan Model and the Minnesota State model.

Barry when talking abut Knies being a Maple Leaf draft pick at beginning of game said that Toronto has been bad for along time(they are going to be in the playoffs for 6th straight season) and that they have trouble scoring(2nd in NHL in scoring).

We don't know how healthy he ever got after the dirty slash against the Gophers. Calder is a shooter and if your wrists aren't 100% it can definitely affect your game. I don't want to compare him to a certain former player who was on the championship team and also wore #16 who was a pretty good sniper and was injured early in his sophomore season, but it took him a while to find his scoring touch when he came back that year.
