Update from Colorado Springs....Wilkie scores his 21st goal of the year to cut Duluth’s lead to 2-1 after one. Go Tigers.

They will??? -I’ll go streaking the parking lot of World Arena tonight if CC can manage to win despite themselves.

That’s not true...CC’s has some success against the Sisters of the Poor!

I’ll be at the CC/Duluth series and, sadly, have very little faith that we (UND) can expect much help from CC this weekend. During the Mike Haviland coaching era, Duluth has pretty much owned us. That said, I’m sure UND recognizes the business they need to take care of on their own and not worry too much on what CC and Duluth are doing (that said, I’ll be worrying enough on my own, hoping CC can steal at least a point or two this weekend).

Berry sure seemed to have a long and serious talk with the St. Cloud coach as they shook hands last night after the game.

Were there different St. Cloud announcers on tv up in GF than Rich and Parrish here in Colorado? -Because my folks couldn’t stop complaining about how biased the SCSU tv announcers were and I was thinking, they must’ve had different guys because Parrish kept complimenting North Dakota all night long!

I liked what Berry had to say in the post game to Hennessy...paraphrasing but basically, he’s rather be playing hockey the way his team plays than the way St. Cloud plays. That you might win a game here or there, packing it in and not playing on your toes. Edit: But more times than not, you will lose playing the way SCSU played tonight.

I agree with the sentiment of everyone on here about the questionable after-the-fact 5 minute major but what are everyone’s thoughts about the hit itself. Question: did Caulfield have to hit Poehling a second or two after he had already released the shot? Seems to me that Caulfield had plenty of time to either stop or skate by Poehling without hitting him.

Honestly, I was shocked they didn’t give him a 5 for that high hit. My heart sunk when the refs reviewed the play.

Yah, my buddy went to the game yesterday and said it was a total **** show both getting to the game as well as leaving-and they left after the 2nd period to try and beat traffic. I’m not going to the CC game but I would imagine the traffic problem won’t be as bad because there will probably be far fewer fans there as well as most of the traffic will be coming from south of the Academy, opposite direction of all the I-25 construction.

Other than that, how did you enjoy the play, Mrs. Lincoln? https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/28713085/hockey-fans-miss-large-portions-kings-avs-game-air-force-falcon-stadium-traffic?fbclid=IwAR3GjBnLSNvU4qTO1PVtxcaiinqMaXTp4NK4PtpNAowD4fdNaN5QPFT0POA

I will not be able to attend this year as the wife and I are taking a break from attending the tournament due to having a new baby (Naturally, with my luck, this will be the year UND DOESN’T lay an egg and will win it all). That said, I hope everyone who attends has a good time and has several good laughs and stories at the brunch! -Dan

So I am reading my folks’ Herald this morning and there’s no story on last night’s game. Only a story on Friday’s game. That’s lame!

Any word on the DU lineup tonight? Will Brink or Heikkinen play tonight?

I was thinking the same thing. Didn’t notice him out there much if at all after he took that I’ll-advised offensive zone penalty in the second period.

Yah what was that? Did he get speared?

The OT loss to New Hampshire in the regional in 2009 hurt too. Two goal lead blown in the 3rd; last second game tying goal for UNH. Edit: I know this isn’t UND, but the CC loss to Michigan in the 1996 national championship game hurts to this day. A loaded CC Tigers team facing an even more loaded Michigan Wolverines team that year. That loss still stings for me.

The parody on the CC rebrand (Coco Chanel) was pretty funny and clever. https://letsgodu.com/2020/02/08/colorado-college-offers-a-familiar-rebrand/

The a hole who commented in that satirical piece (anonymously I might add) is the epitome of high brow snobbery that exists at private institutions like DU.

Heckuva Beanpot Championship game!

1. Denver (By a country mile. The wine and cheese club of the NCHC. Bunch of rich, entitled elitists (like CC, only successful). Just read their articles on letsgodu about UND sometime and you too will hate ‘em) 2. Minnesota (Arrogant pr*cks think they invented the game and nobody else has the right to be good at it) 3. St. Cloud (Haven’t won anything on a national scale but have the worst fans who seem to have a hard on for UND. The sorest winners) 4. Duluth (Drunken mouth breathers and the worst tv play by play guys in all of college hockey) Honorable Mention: BC, Quinnipiac, any and all B1G programs

2-1, CC in the third. Tigers buzzing all around the SCSU goalie, Wilkie hit the post (again).
