Godsmack

I had the pleasure of seeing him skate for a few seasons at CC. He plays with a lot of energy. A smaller guy but not afraid to mix it up with bigger stronger players. I’m bummed I don’t get to see Michaud skating around World Arena this season as UND doesn’t travel to CC.

Liam Finley is a good player.

Who are the top 2 returning leading scorers?

Maybe he’s the Josh Siembida of UND football.

Anyone notice the back up quarterback’s helmet says 2 but his jersey says 6?

Well, Better the Yankees than the Nittany Lions.

Any reason why there aren’t names on the backs of their jerseys?

I’m fully in support of Pios fans on this... https://letsgodu.com/2019/09/09/dus-promises-made-promises-broken/

Denver administration sometimes would engage in this too. They’d schedule their home series against North Dakota during breaks so that they could sell the student section seats to the general public at their premium price point. Sneaky.

I went to the DU tickets athletics site earlier today but could not find that single game tickets have gone on sale yet. Am I missing something?

Single game tickets are starting to go on sale at various schools. Air Force tickets just went on sale a few days ago and not surprisingly, the series against Arizona State is selling very fast. The AF ticket site is down so you will want to call their ticket office if you wish to order tickets. The number is, (719)472-1895.

Being this is a warm up game for the Bison, I predict they win 48-3 en route to an eventual SEC championship and then on to the BCS.

Sounds like the DU administration is going about this Pioneer thing in a very underhanded, sneaky fashion. https://letsgodu.com/2019/08/22/breaking-news-du-removes-pioneer-card-name-from-du-identity-cards/

CC has announced their captains. Congrats to Wilkie as he will be wearing a letter this season. https://gazette.com/sports/cc-hockey-confident-in-sophomore-senior-pairing-of-co-captains/article_beeb550a-c932-11e9-a711-2b2438cbfcdb.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&utm_campaign=user-share&fbclid=IwAR2yo7lUC3Sr-zJziBCLyl2hHmlGhlR43hDXYKid1RunQx5H-Qqc3aAEEpU

Well, at least it doesn’t say cream of sumyungi

Any new news on a possible Manitoba junior hockey league team coming to Grand Forks?

Well, Godsmack sold out the 20,000 seat Pepsi Center last August so I think they’re still a draw but point taken, these kids are into their thing. I don’t even know what the hell EDM is or stands for?!

I was at that show too! Funny story-Bon Jovi was opening for Ratt and 6 months later, after Slippery When Wet came out, Ratt was the support act for Bon Jovi! I still have my guitar pick that Robbin Crosby tossed out to the crowd! But I digress....I better stop before someone tells me to take this conversation to a different thread!

Yah, part of me is stuck in the 2019’s (Chevelle, Disturbed, Like a Storm, etc.) and part of me is still stuck in the 80’s.

How could you not get fired up for the game listening to Funeral Bell by Black Label Society?!?!

The powers that be probably wouldn’t let me play DJ.....there’d be a plethora of Godsmack, Ratt, Metallica, Disturbed, etc.

All this talk about changes in philosophy and culture and stuff but what I really want to know is, does the team need some new warm up music??? -I didn’t get to a UND home game last season so can anyone comment on the genre and quality of tunes played during warm ups?

I agree about both cost as well as low cost streaming alternatives such as NCHC.tv. My wife and I have been CC season ticket holders for several years now and plan to continue to renew our tickets after the new Robson Arena opens up, with one caveat...we fully expect the ticket prices to go up, that’s a given but we have our limits and if they price gauge the fans, we are willing to drop our season tickets. Our patience is already running thin given the poor quality of the product on the ice under Haviland’s watch but given its only going to seat about 3,000 people, and the new, “wow” factor driving interest, demand should be high, at least for a season or two. I could see if the product on the ice at the Ralph continues to stagnate that even UND fans will walk, especially given the higher ticket prices relative to other programs. We have the NCHC.tv subscription and are perfectly content watching the CC games from there (although nothing can compare to live, in-person game experiences) or attending AF games. Point being, programs should learn from the mistakes of others (U of M for example) by recognizing the value and importance of its loyal fan base.

I agree. I also like how they don’t haze the freshmen by making them load and unload all the gear on road trips. Even the coaches help out. Definitely a great culture here.
