    Duluth fans shouldn't have a problem finding a place to park. Just hit the parking lot attendant from behind ....and park wherever you want.

    I don't think that will work. there will be so many UND fans swarming to whine I won't be able to move the car.

    That's a dam good team you have over there this year. 

    Thank you. I didn't know what to expect with this team coming into the year becasue our goaltending was such a huge qustion mark. But Miska has played so well and we've got great players contributing to a deep team. I'm enjoying the season.

    I'm sure Dogs fans feel that way, but things happen in the NCAAs, as we all know. 

    Agreed a 100%, Frozen Four or it will be a disappointment, but hockey is a fluky thing so they could very well be one and done. We'll see...:)

    Oh.........and the UMD hockey program has been around for 73 years. Other than this season name another year where UMD has swept UND in a season series?

    Yup! UND has traditionally had UMD's number. Even in our best years UMD didn't do well against UND or was just above .500 against them. Crazy right?

    I thought the one night that UND looked a lot better than they did the prior year when they swept Duluth but got outshot badly.  

    This is a really hot take.

    The series in Duluth was some of the most lopsided play I've seen against UND. I've never turned a game off midway through and I almost did because it got so boring to watch as a UND fan. That and the color commentator sounded like a drunk fan.

    Regardless, Duluth has looked really solid this year. I look forward to a competitive, back and forth, type of series.

    Indeed it was. Our color guy is...not good.

    What you did there...I see it

    Interesting to know though that before UMD swept in October, the last time that happened was at the old Ralph in 1996. (IIRC) 

     

     

     

    Seriously though I'd be really happy with split. This UMD team has come back to earth but I still have high hopes for them this year.

    Each week I get more and more impressed with UMD. This weekend at SCSU they gave up the first goal within the first minute and both nights scored 3 goals in third period to win. It's early but they're the favorite to win the Penrose and maybe the national title.

    $59 after fees and taxes per ticket, pretty steep.

    Might be part of the reason the upper bowl looks about 1/2 empty for Friday at the moment...

    Good point that UND playing the Gophers next weekend could hurt attendance. Although I'm sure people who don't want to pay the money that UMTC is charging might be willing to pay UMD's prices. 

     

     

    Pretty cool that this is a rare 1 v 2 matchup...even if I'm pessimistic about UMD's chances and we are probably overrated.

    Good sandbagging Biddco :lol:

    This is my favorite road trip of the yr. The town, the rink, the warm(comparatively) weather in October. Can't wait to head down Hwy 2 on Thursday night!

    Hehe, well despite feeling very confident for the Frozen Faceoff game last March, I'm not looking forward to this weekend. Usually I am but with how UMD's played against UND recently and in their own home building is embarrassing. I'm tired of UMD splitting at best and want them to sweep or at least take the majority of points on the weekend. Sadly I doubt that will happen. 

     

     

    Question for people here, do you find the ticket prices or package for the games too much? There's a good number of tickets left which tells me the prices are too high. I believe they are up a little bit from last year. 

     

     

    If anyone needs suggestions on sights, food or bar recommendations please let me know. There is some great food options in town

    Thanks, Biddco.  I like that the NCHC teams have a bit of a chip on their collective shoulders.   We are definitely something for B1G and others to reckon with. 

    I guess they do, three years in though things are better than anyone could have anticipated for the conference. The strategy of having a "super conference" is working.

    Our seats were in a predominantly UMD section. Passionate fans, knowledgeable and mostly good folks. One d**k right behind me though.....was that you Biddco?

     

    I kid...I kid.

    :D

     

    Nope I was in a mostly UND section...Was disapointed by the turn out by UMD fans. I'm hoping there will be a few more tonight
