Everyone has to do a shot whenever Bucci says, “YO! DING DONG!”

To your point, we have Xfinity and my wife (who’s the brains in this operation) found ESPN 3 on the channel guide and it comes on. If you can use streaming services through your provider, and you have ESPN, you might be able to get ESPN 3 on your television. Edit: ESPN 3 won’t show up on your channel guide; you have to specifically search for ESPN channels to locate ESPN 3.

Oh really? I did not know that. Interesting.

Not to mention, in normal years, the ECAC schools-at least the Ivies-don’t start playing games until a month after the rest of the conferences have started. I follow Cornell and see that after teams like UND and virtually everybody else have had 4-6 games under their belt, they’re just getting in their first warm up game against a Canadian University. Why do they do that?

You think Cole Caufield will leave after this season?

Wisconsin could be another possibility for Cruikshank as he’s from there. Wisconsin offers a lot of compelling reasons to go there as well.

There’s so many old UND/DU scrum videos out there on Youtube. Fun stuff. But I digress.

I still watch this from time to time. Hearing Pat Sweeney’s voice go up about ten octaves was icing on the cake!

Yah, and from what I hear, he loves his HS coaching gig and is paid handsomely for it. But to your point, he’d make a fun, interesting addition to the NCHC coaching fold!

Loved it when Gwoz was quoted as saying, “They will always be the Fighting Sioux to me” (or something to that effect)

It would be nice if somehow, the NCHC could reclaim it.

Given how crappy he was treated when let go, it would be a nice project to try to rebuild DU’s rivals to the south.

I know it’s a wild card but just wondering out loud if it’s a gig he might be interested in throwing his name in the hat.

How about Grant Potulny?

Eric Rud is a name that instantly comes to mind.

Do you go for a big name splash or bring in a younger assistant coach? Could/would any of the assistants at UND or other NCHC programs be intrigued?

Even though Gwoz is older, yah-bring him in to clean up the program and get it back on its feet.

If I’m CC, I’d consider everyone, including Jim Montgomery and George Gwozdecky (if they were at all interested).

I don’t know. Doubt it but they’re consistently good in Colorado.

And making a King’s ransom doing it. Lot’s of $ flows into Valor Christian.

A little surprised he didn’t stay at least through next season with the opening of Robson Arena but it’s probably the best for everyone. The program needs a change in leadership.

Is there serious talk of expanding the tournament?

The committee doesn’t want too many more west teams in relative to the number of east teams. They’ll figure out a way to mess this selection process up.

If St. Lawrence wins today, does the ECAC get them and Quinnipiac into the tournament?
