Yah, why not? -Take a page out of the Oklahoma football QB playbook?

I wonder if, at times, Sanderson is trying to do too much? Did anyone see the no look backhand pass he tried to make to his D partner at the top of the QU offensive zone? -It led to an odd man rush and scoring opportunity for Quinnipiac.

Yah I listened to it. Basically, that QU is a very good team but several of the goals were a result of self-inflicted mistakes. For instance, the goal off the D zone faceoff where we won the puck back to our D and he ringed the puck around the boards and that the forward should know this play but he didn’t get to the rail on time, resulting in the QU player intercepting the puck and setting up a goal. Berry also talked about the penalty trouble we got into and how our PK wasn’t sharp tonight.

QU is a damn good team though. Big, strong and fast. They made entering their zone pretty difficult on us and they blocked a ton of shots. Felt that on some of them, instead of making the cross ice pass, we tried forcing shots through where there were no lanes.

UND needs to figure out that generally speaking, eastern officials tend to call the game tighter. Too many stick penalties and holds. Clean that stuff up.

Oh, they like revenue all right-last I checked, tuition, room, and board was about 60 grand. I just don’t think they have much experience running a D-I hockey operation yet as they’re coming off twenty years of being a tenant at the city owned World Arena.

They’ve reported that the first three home games have been sold out but there’s been plenty of empty seats so I’m guessing they’re going by tickets sold and not butts in the seats? At the Saturday night game against St. Lawrence (homecoming weekend) the PA guy announced another sell out but you could easily tell that wasn’t the case as they’d put bright yellow rally towels on each seat and there were hundreds of them untouched resting on seats.

I was told at the open house by a Robson Arena employee that they hope to have as few North Dakota fans attending games there as possible. I think they’re tired of losing at home in front of big crowds of green.

I’ll be flying in on Thursday afternoon.

Anyone going to be attending the series in person?

I can’t believe Motzko can sit there and call that a dive. Plus, I don’t think coach Larson would be too happy with his own players taking dives in the defensive zone of a 3x3 sudden death overtime. Plain and simple, that didn’t look like Perpix dove to anyone with an ounce of intellectual integrity.

I’m no St. Cloud fan but I do believe in fair play. This has to be one of the worst non-calls ever in college hockey. I wonder if these were NCHC refs? I’m guessing they were given the game was played in St. Cloud.

Mankato and Michigan in a big time dog fight. Dryden McKay just made the save of the game-wide open gaping net and the Michigan forward one-times it and somehow McKay makes a sprawling save. Near empty Amsoil arena; fans are idiots, they’re missing a potential frozen four matchup.

Is it true that the fans, or the students at least, were really chirping Driscoll pretty bad? Saying “f Driscoll”, etc.?

Good luck. The ticketing process for the new Robson Arena has been a frustrating mess all around. My buddy and fellow season ticket holder has been growing impatient with the promises to have the portal go live for season ticket holders to be able to sell or transfer their e tickets. Not sure who you talked to but David Bailey is the athletic department contact person. You may want to call him directly at 719-389-6324. You can also email him and he will reply: david.bailey@coloradocollege.edu Heckuva nice guy and very accommodating. I would confirm with him whether or not all of the General Admission tickets are actually sold out. Hope this helps.

I thought that name sounded familiar. What happened with him?

Question-is there a mask mandate to attend UND games also, do you need to show proof of vaccination to enter the Ralph? -Not looking to engage in any debate, just curious to know what other NCHC programs are doing as compared to CC.

Love Ben Holden’s play by play for hockey, particularly when he calls a goal.

$850 million endowment, them constantly bugging me to give them money, and they still can’t get decent tv production. Geesh…

NHL?

I stayed home last Saturday and watched some of the CC game and the camera quality was not good. The main cameras that cover the wider angle, end to end action were fine but the lower cameras and cameras down in the corners were dark and grainy. Highly disappointed given the new arena.
