There’s a CC page on FB that’s just like that. We nicknamed it the “Rah Rah” page. Out of frustration and just weariness over reading the same types of posts, my buddy went and started another CC hockey discussion page where fans can be open and honest and yes, critical without being brow beaten as “not true Tigers hockey fans.”

Anyone hear Hennessy’s comments in the post game show just now about how these losses stick with the fans much more than with the players? I wonder what he was driving at? Are we as fans overreacting? Are we out of line for being frustrated?

Did anyone hear Costantini’s name called much tonight? I sure didn’t. To be fair, there were a lot of guys’ names not called much tonight.

Well, folks, I’m turning this trainwreck off and going to go watch some Oprah re-runs.

Last I heard, he was injured but I agree with you. Maybe he’s not the heralded high end recruit but his motor is always running and he brings an intangible to the team that can’t be taught. He brings it whenever he gets the opportunity to play.

Yea, every team makes the playoffs. The rate we’re going, we’ll be on the road in the first round at somewhere like Denver or Western.

How does UND drop two spots following a win and a tie on the road???

What I witnessed last night at Robson was something I have not seen since toward the end of the Scotty Owens era, circa 2011 when the Tigers had the Schwartz brothers. Duluth came out looking flat and lethargic while CC was aggressive and in attack mode. Now, can they replicate that tonight?

My dad intimated that from what he heard about Tychonick’s post game interview, that he really dislikes UND. Did anyone hear the interview and your impressions?

Party time in C. Springs!

Yes, unfortunately.

My buddy ran into Coach Hakstol a week or so ago at an Avs/Kraken game and my buddy’s not really a UND fan but after the game he saw Hak walking in the concourse so he yelled, “Go Sioux!” and Coach walked over to my buddy and chatted with him for a couple of minutes! I thought that was pretty cool.

I got to listen to the has-beens podcast and Ausmus, Olson, and Gaber’s comments about reading stuff on the Sioux forum. Whoever from this forum here recommended to go listen to it, I want to say thank you! That was some funny sh*t! Just about peed my pants, I was laughing so hard!

Listening to last week’s The Has-beens episode with Gaber while folding laundry and the wife walks in the room and she can’t help but hear all the f bombs that Ausmus was dropping while talking about the UND/Gopher series. She’s like, “is that the only word in the vocabulary of a hockey player???” -I’m like, “yah pretty much.” Classic.

If it makes anybody feel any better or offer a different perspective, I recall many DU fans calling for the head of Carle two seasons ago as well as early on into last season. I’m betting those folks weren’t too dissatisfied with him come last April. Things can turn around for this UND team, we’ve seen it before.

Is it fair to say that UND losing to ASU may be a big point in their favor towards membership into the NCHC? Gotta think three straight wins over NCHC teams (even wins over lowly CC) would count for something for ASU.

I just don’t see the Big Ten member school presidents giving the green light to inviting UND into the conference as an affiliate member. We don’t fit their academic profile of J. Hopkins or Notre Dame. And I don’t say this to disrespect UND as an academic institution, just from what I know about the Big Ten, that’s the impression I get. Plus, economically speaking, how much would UND move the needle relative the Big Ten conference’s overall revenue stream? Why would they need UND to help Big Ten hockey?

Don’t know the stats but sweeps at Baxter seem rare for UND. I’m going with a split. Omaha treats this as a bigger rivalry series than we do so they get up for it to pull out at least one win.

This is the first time I’ve complained about the NCHC top 5 plays of the week…Senden’s goal where he batted it out of mid air into the open net didn’t make a top 5 play? And what was so special about Cruikshank’s #1 play of the week?? He cut in and banged in a nice centering pass but thought there would be at least one or two UND plays as good as that.

So I’d like to know everyone’s thoughts on what Motzko is saying to Pitlick right now. My guess is, as Coach Motzko is tucking Rhett into bed tonight, he’s telling him to sleep tight and get a very good night’s rest.

Seems to me the ref had the discretion to call a cross check on the Gopher player moments after Senden had scored.

Anyone know if there’s a link to watch all of last night’s game somewhere out there in Internet land? I’d kill to watch that game, especially the second period.

2:45 game at Magness today. Will be walking past the DU locker room rocking the green. I expect to run into some Pios players as rumor has it, coach Carle will have the boys watching Trainwreck from the stands to show them how the game is played.
