agree our wheels our falling off faster, but they lost the best forward in the country and haven't been in the mix since Covid

I think where I get fired up the most is with comparatives. UND hockey should never be compared to Duluth, St Thomas, Augustana, Minnesota State, Bemidji State, St Cloud State, Long Island, Bentley...we need to be in the conversation every year with BU, BC, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota

i was drinking last night, but working and thinking today. The bottom line is this is absolutely a key moment in our future. SCSU has fallen big time since the start of the NCHC...Duluth had a run, built a killer arena, but they are now falling- the best player in the country this year bailed after his freshman year there. NCHC is a formidable college conference, but we are facing the big big money guys

Ill take the over and mark the books...

I think this is what our program really needs to think about...outside in vs inside out...the fire and love and hate on this board is just the artifact of the most passionate fanbase in college hockey. Nobody on this board is truly in the loop, but we all care.

Ann Arbour is a beautiful college town right next to a major city

I'm actually sitting in a Detroit suburb right now. Detroit has a lot of work to do, but they are trying. Downtown by the stadiums is actually really safe and awesome now. There are suburbs...West Bloomfield, Grosse Pointe...that are like Edina f'd Wayzata.

what's Annie's number? : )

welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games....

i'm curious how many of you have been to Ann Arbor...it isn't Detroit...its an hour from Detroit

I'm going to pivot some of my comments to help create some of the basis of my thinking. I would actually like to reflect on the Minnesota pro sports model...aka he is one of us, he's great, we love him...Joe Mauer, Zach Parise...unreal pro athletes....however, when's the last time the Wild or the Twins were actually relevant. I want to be careful of that thinking...

I would just love a ZJ...in high school I only had like $1o so no way I was getting a z jjay

I just don't understand a personal attack. I can't read correctly? Bro I'm Big 10 and Ivy educated. I really don't need to comment further.

dude, its f'ing crazy...20 years ago we were still bucks

I will State this again. Is Augustana a relevant school to any stud D1 athlete? Please answer me this...

didn't think you were going to go hard on this...

in high school you turned down a BJ for hopes of something more?

makes me laugh when some guys get all rowdy and don't look at the date we all started...2003...thats a long time ago...22 years...damn im old

God I hope so

brother, we've been on here together for a ton of years, and I respect you- shocking actually we never met in person at a F4 or F5...probably walked past each other : ) I know exactly what you're saying, and God knows I hated certain fans wearing other colors at times...but don't you miss being there at the top every year even if we didn't win it all. We were there. Eye of the Tiger. Could've done it. RIght there....

I reiterate, despite those who question me, that the number one thing we must do is make UND the destination where guys want to go to get to the NHL. We will not compete on overall campus experience, and we will not compete on academics. It must be, if you are a chippah, you need to come here to go pro and not ride a bus. This is it, pure and simple. then, we need to throw NIL $ at them and help them make it.

winning natty's is no longer my bag. Of course I wish for it, but I reflect back on all those talented teams, and I still loved the ride, and I still watched every one of those guys that made the nhl

sioux hockey: fast, heavy, hard, and skilled

heard this as well

well, they didn't recruit non-Minnesotans for like 70 years
