Things that make you go hmmmm....
Question: when these Canadian universities travel down to the States to play exhibition games, who pays their travel, food, lodging costs? Is there a similar arrangement as college football where the bigger power schools pay the little FCS schools a big chunk of change to play the game?
I'm new to NCHC.tv but was wondering what the easiest way to watch the UND game online is? I was watching the WMU/Toronto game but then stopped it to go to the UND game and now it's saying, "cannot view from this device." Thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

Something else Simon Frasier should think about is how attached they are to their nickname. If they joined the NCAA, they'd likely have to drop that nickname.
On the NHL Network yesterday afternoon they reported that Alex Ovechkin said he intends to play in the 2018 Olympics regardless of the NHL will allow players to participate.
Has there been anymore chatter down south in Fargo about starting D-I hockey? Also, has there been any talk or consideration of adding hockey at either of the South Dakota schools?
Good to hear! Thanks for the feedback! Thus far, my experiences at road games for UND or CC at such places as Huntsville, Vermont, Duluth, and Omaha have all be quite positive. Looking forward to Miami.
I just got my tickets for the UND/Miami series out in Oxford next March. I can't wait! Anyone been to a game out there? Is the atmosphere as fun and intense as it appears on television?
Here's a preview on Letsgodu website of their incoming freshmen class. Clearly the kid from Finland is the prize recruit coming in.

Here's a good scouting report on Mr. Dillon Simpson. I hope he gets called up to Edmonton this season.

Here's a fun little read regarding the CC/DU rivalry. Wish I could say the Tigers have had the greater success between the two but it's still been a fun ride...
