Didn't the coaches just get a raise during this winter? Not saying they shouldn't continue to happen, but I thought they just got a bump?

With Kevin Maurice leaving, I'm going to throw this out there to generate a little discussion: Bubba isn't going anywhere, but IF he decided he was done tomorrow, who would be on UND's radar. I'd like to think the school tries to have a contingency plan for those kinds of scenarios, but have no idea. Would UND open up a national search? Is there someone currently on the staff who would be capable? Schmidt? Like I said, Bubba isn't going anywhere, and I hope he sticks around for quite a while, but just a "what if" kind of scenario.

That is one of the greatest websites for college hockey. Absolutely love the analysis and projections. Great resource.

I think that is fairly reasonable. But I still think there needs to be a degree of discretion by the officials. There are plenty of times where you see a dangerous play resulting in a major penalty, but the player on the receiving end pops right back up .... usually angry, but altogether fine. Those players should not be punished because some one else took a cheap shot.

Really sucks. Guy did a great job recruiting.

Here it goes ... Another attempt at being positive .... another bode of confidence .... another week of hope. This is the week the boys start to put it together, and get some payoff. We have seen these guys play poor and lose some games (last Saturday), we have seen these guys dominate play, but with no results (W. Mich and CC); this is the week it comes together. Sweep, secure home ice, get a little help, be back in the NCAA tourney picture.

Not arguing with what you heard at all. That could very well be the case. If so, I guess I would seriously question what the hell Jones was thinking. IF that was the case, maybe you still have the guy dress, and at least be available to come into the game if needed. I didn't realize that Seales was out of the lineup until well into the first half, and I kept wondering why I hadn't seen him yet. Could have really provided a spark into the offense last night. Altogether, it was just a disappointing game, and a tough one to watch, especially with how this team has played all year. Props to Sac St, they came in with a plan and maintained it the whole game. Obviously not a great offensive team either, but they completely shut us down. Oh well, on to Saturday! This is still a great team, with "hopefully" a lot of basketball left to play.

That is what I read, but not sure that makes sense, since he is there.

Wow, not only do I want to see that kid on our team, but I don't want to see him on teams we will be playing against. Kid looks tough and fast. Good hands too. If you can add another 20 lbs on him and have him keep his speed, he could be really dangerous.

Haha, just trying to mix it up a bit. But I will agree, these things are far more successful with football for the reasons you listed. Like I said half of these guys look like clean cut politicians. Still, I have to think someone could find a pretty good replica of Blasi or a couple of the guys.

This is what it comes down to guy! Huge weekend for UND Hockey; time to pull out all the tricks, including the look-a-like thread. It obviously served the football team well last fall. Hockey players are a little tougher to do, as most of them tend to look more like politicians, but lets give it a go. http://www.miamiredhawks.com/sports/m-hockey/mtt/mioh-m-hockey-mtt.html

Watch him rack up some interceptions now I like the move myself. Definitely, a lot more depth at WR than a few years ago. As has been said, I like a kid that is willing to switch positions and do what is needed to stick with a program. Hope it works out.

For sure, definitely hope it works out. Kid has the big rangy body, I'd love to see him make it work. Just not confident it will, sometimes those position changes work, sometimes they do nothing. I wonder if he played CB at all in high school.

Santiago as a Sophomore. Sure, lets go with that.

Will he come in next season then? Play another year with a development team? Move to the USHL?

Would also work well with either the gray or green uniforms.

You're the man

This should be reason enough for Grand Forks to get a Chipotle

looked like Wanzek was listed as the top X receiver, and Oliveira was on the injured list.

Anyone have any new insider information on uniforms for 2017? Additions of White/Grey/Black helmets? Grey jerysey's were a cool addition last year. Would love to see another addition this year. I'm sure it all comes down to money, but a grey or white helmet would be really cool.

Anyone going to be at some of the spring football practices? Would be awesome to see some updates. .... Paging Teeder

Agreed, that the team (the way they have been playing lately), does not look like a team poised to make a deep run. Though sometimes those are the teams that can surprise you. Ultimately, I just want to see them get there. And I agree it is extremely valuable experience. As for this team being capable of making a run in the tournament, it is certainly hard to feel too optimistic. Look at how tough it was for UND to get by Denver in the Frozen Four last year, and with the talented team we had too. I'm just going to keep holding out hope that the guys come together and find a way to make the tournament.

Do we know of any more potential additions? FBS dropdowns? Juco Transfers? I believe Jojo Henderson was supposed to be on campus this weekend.
