  1. Skarperud has done just a phenomenal job with this group
  2. you've got a point
  3. Reply will be in 4 volumes post season.
  4. Too soon to say but I've heard more positive than negative from those involved
  5. Thats just a bad case of a bias of perception and tunnel vision. Go to a Century Legacy game and tell me after those kids don't have playing for their school as meaningfull. Minot kids dont have meaning playing as a magician?.. tell that to some of the kids that devoted everything to making the team and didn't. Foolish. If it had meaning then why do they still leave for jrs? I might be missing the "meaning" behind the quote a bit but the arrogant attitude of "deserving" to play as opposed to earning and achieving the right (as those GF teams did again) is absolutely the attitude that keeps ND hockey exactly where it is, which is fine with those people. Maybe UM gophers should just deserve to be innthe frozen four every year cause it means something to them... same thing. Respectfully, that's an absolutely terrible attitude.
  6. The Ralph does a way better job and the facilities are better, the girls aren't relegated to the "Nobody gives a !@#$" rink... Fargo is just an awefull high school hockey experience in and outside the rink and town.
  7. Tell me you've never been to Minot Maysa without... you know the rest Ralph should host every year or every 2 out of 3 years, it is a better experience. Rotate the 3rd year between Minot and scheels IF fargo can figurenout the hotel management Not much of a student Thlete experience staying at some of the crack whore meth motels they are but up in
  8. The boys tourney could be held in Minot 100% of the years. You think GF has good attendance purely out of proximity but if those wheels had to turn more than an hour the student section would look exactly like Fargo Norths did last night. Which was absolutely pathetic for being in town for them. We shall see if it's a GF final but I think it's pure fantasy to think the scheels bowl will be over half full
  9. More than you can imagine... And the "was" isn't "was" it's more like "still, but not quite as bad" Showed in the 2nd and 3rd. Just nothing left in the tank.
  10. Great Kid, Great family, he should get a look in juniors somewhere. Tough road out of Hazen but he's a good hockey player and works hard.
  11. Doing pretty well this junior year, pretty damn good hockey player as well IMO. Certainly could be......
  12. Outstanding young man, it'll be tough to see a Vig in the wrong green and white playing at the Ralph, but extremely happy for him.
  13. Thinking they would rather have someone rent the place who's check will actually clear.
  14. In all fairness yes, but that's probably the mentality they still want to hold going into the tourney.
  15. Century has some good ol' Walsh County roots throughout the team if your looking for storylines to support....
  16. It's embarrassing. The hell is he arguing with stripes about, the dork commentators are just scoring zingers on him left and right... kinda like goals in the nets
  17. Don't worry... they won't be.
  18. They seem to have avoided letdown all year so sometimes it may come down to the fact, they're a dang well coached team that has enough mid tier depth to sustain and outlast. Lot of talented kids. They may not have the top goalie or D but they're still pretty good. Outpaced my expectations for sure. The favorite now most definetly.
  19. well yes agreed but it is a "bit" more complicated than that. in the end I'd really like to know why NDHSAA is charging so damn much for the "rights"....... I suppose I could inquire there. Is what it is for this year.
  20. So much, and done such a good job. NDHSAA purse is an absolute barrier for the best interests of the kids yet again. But $30 (really any amount probably) is an absolute non starter for 99% of the casual extended family, or interested high school hockey fan in the region, let alone anyone maybe tuning in to check out a kid as a potential interest for their org. I don't have all the answers for the best way to run these things. It is truly an web of crap with all the different options and production places, tiers of rights holders, owners, bidders.. fees/fines/etc even finding people to want to do this is tough, especially at basketball tourney time. Been an tough year for coverage of WDA hockey OUTSIDE of the great work being done by PSP.. Although BEK did a decent job of picking some games up, and the guy firing up the thing in Williston shows promise as well. Is what it is, I guess.
  21. Huge dick-punch to those that thought they were going to have their friends and family, and interested hockey fans watch the WDA tournament. After securing the rights to the WDA tourney PSP Network has now announced they have suddenly switched to a subscription model. No more games on YouTube to easily watch. (YouTube will provide only the audio) Now every person who wants to watch has to log in on a computer or mobile app only... @ $14.99 a day per user or $29.99 for the tourney...... Remember that terrible NFHS Network option that we previously discussed...this is arguably worse. As it is about the same experience, albeit with announcers, but at triple the price tag. Just a damn shame all around
  22. Its probably a bit deeper than that at this point..... https://www.facebook.com/share/p/Mdiv46iHJpcCJaRd/?mibextid=qi2Omg
  23. WDA play-ins hold serve for the top seeds. Bottineau ends Hazen's season. 7-3 Williston run times BHS 7-1 Bismarck High ends their 50th anniversary year with their worst season in program history, 1-21.
  24. That's gotta be pre-covid and dare I say pre-smartphone era. There hasn't been enough people to fill any bowl in quite a while it seems. Bismarck gets what it deserves for not doing a damn thing about a proper arena, No economic impact for you.... but Minot could host a state boys tourney just as good as Fargo can.. Better actually .....CAUSE YOU COULD GET A GYAAATDAMN HOTEL ROOM IN MINOT!!!!!
