This is why they should never have let the general public decide. The "public" is generally stupid and it gives people who only want to sabotage the issue a vote. That was dumb.

Saw a post on the gram that Colorado College is getting new jerseys. Literally had the worst jerseys I’ve seen in college hockey the last few years.
Up next, UND. New logo, new jersey.
With Adidas exiting the NHL hockey market after the 23-24 and rumors of logo tweaks and updates....
I'd say, if things hold accourding to past I'd bet UND has new jerseys under NHLs branded template for the 2025-26 season.

Most of the NMC/NTC have all the teams in Canada on them, I just don't see Toews going to play for a team in Canada.
Any NMC can be waived by the Player.... in a per team or deal basis Chicago is making it reallllly attractive to find a new place for Toews and Kane...
They'll use the "Goodbye period" to sell as many tix as possible up to the trades.

Using the current font.
this one is not so good... is that a N? is that a P or an O or a "sleeping Z" cattle brand? Is that a V?
With this font the letter have to be differentiated more

Blake Wheeler removed as Winnipeg Jets captain. Why not try bring in Toews and let him be a captain and mentoring some young guy to take over after he retires?
This is what I speculate will happen . .
but how much salary would Chicago have to retain? 50%?

Definitely not skilled enough to do any sort of morphing video, but something like this?
This is actually likely more work than was put in by the company that came up with the branding in the first place.
The ND isn't bad, and could work as shoulder logos or a helmet logo.
But it won't satisfy the "YOU MUST WORSHIP THE HAWK" nazis.
You'll be accused of trying to divide the fan base.

It would have been done right if it was hockey…..
Most likely, or at least corrected sooner as just a significantly higher amount of people pay attention and catch things associated with the a higher profile program.
Damn those people and their...... (Insert..... the daily excuses, jealousy, whining, and blaming the shortcomings of one program on the success of a different program ...here)

I’d also like one of these vintage jerseys too
The Siouxshop at the Ralph had those vintage game used football jerseys for sale for years... I think they were clearenced out to $50 - $30 if the Logo had been removed

I'm not sure if hockey has transitioned to paperless game programs, but have an actual old school game program so people don't have to pull out their phone in order to learn about the players/teams, or to do something as simple as check a guys number. Once that phone gets pulled out, it's difficult for everyone to put it down - might as well check on the scores of other games, could see a work email, wife/husband texted you from home, etc..

it's all tindergram and onlyhub for the kids these days

Last time I knew, you had to be 21 to buy/drink alcohol. Just from reading some of your post here, you seem to be a strong supporter of underage drinking. While I will admit, one cannot stop those who are underage from doing it if they choose to do so, if they, or anyone, even over 21 are acting a fool, and drunk, they SHOULD BE reported. Not just at the Ralph, but at ANY sporting event.
I will add, that even bringing up the under 21 drinking and having fun, has NOTHING to do with the question at hand. the student section represents less than 5% or so of the attendance, (not to mention, it can be a violation of the student code of conduct), What the question refers to, is, what can the University do for the 95% paying full price for tickets, as well as yearly booster fees for the seats, to become more engaging.
Fun can be defined in many ways by different people. I think one issue (even tho I have not been to a game at the new Ralph, since it was built, but have taken tours, and seen people post videos of games there.) is that since it was built, the Ralph, has been on the forefront of fan involvement, pushing the edge every time they upgrade something. (Many things they have had for years at the Ralph, I have just recently seen implemented here in Nebraska at Football games.) But, on the same token, there can also be TOO MUCH, fan involvement as well. As well as, some fans not being satisfied
Some of the things I have read here on this post I agree with are:
1. Pregame tailgating. - (Here in Nebraska for football games, there are multiple private lots that host pregame tailgates. Its a little hard to do that on a friday night before a weekend series tho. None of these are run by the school, but the lot themselves.) I think another thing that adds to this a little, is that there is NO "bar scene" strip very close to the arena, mainly homes and businesses.)
2. Unified cheer to get all students and fans engaged. - There are several cheers that I know of for UND, I have seen that there are at times different ones used for different sports tho, so yes, maybe this makes sense.
3. A green out and not a white out. - (I like this. Too many schools use white out)
4. Students behind the UND shoots twice goal. - Move the current end season ticket holders to center ice at same tix cost and booster fee. (grandfathered) If there is an issue with suites/ect, remove a row or two below these to alleviate the issue. Also, when students are moved to the end, swap out the coushy seats, for nice bleacher seats.
Some of the things I have read here on this post I disagree with are:
1. 3rd period be corporate sponsored to be "commercial free". - Will never happen! Games are overall on Midco Sports, NCHC.TV, and Cable Sports Networks. Because of this, they have to do commercials with whomever is broadcasting the game. As far as in arena, maybe highlights, university news, player highlights ect can be run.
2. The people staring at their phones during game action is really disheartening. - (Unfortunately, not much can be done here. Far too many people with attention issues these days. Only option is to install shockers in the seats, and zap them when you see them on their phones.)
3. Different Music. - Unfortunately, this is a licensing issue, There are specific music sets authorized for different sports by the NCAA, thats why you hear a lot of the same music at different rinks.
Just a few ideas - Not sure if they do it already or not
1. Cooperate fan of the day seat upgrade with past player
2. During breaks, have someone use an air cannon to shoot shirts and stuff into the crowd.
- Just a few thoughts.
There's alot of "they should build roller rinks to give kids something to do" energy in this post.
But the students behind goalie thing is a legit need...
but bleachers? holy hell

Open locker room and close to the field. Title IX just prevents discrimination in athletics, its the reason that the women's track team is bigger than the mens they have to have the same amount of athletes in each gender. title IX doesn't give women a spot in the ralph
Yeah, unfortunately just a lack of education on this but yes locker rooms and equal accomodations is a very big part of the title IX provision as Jdub posted
The women's hockey team in the REA satisfied the requirement, so they literally had to plug some women's team in there instead of using the space for something worthwhile.
The fact it is close to what would be better used as additional parking i.e. the soccer field...... was just coincidence.
I think a majority of the time title IX has some done very important things, however sometimes the need to be in compliance overrides the best interests of all people involved.

Yes it was on the front neck area, always liked that era of football jerseys. Bold numbers and that diamond geometric collar was a nice accent.
Believe it was added either the next year after the D2 natty or the year after that.
The football jerseys a bit mimicked the hockey Nike Dazzle style.
Both looked awesome. But true the Brien logo has never been on a natty uniform for hockey or football.
Seriously if they wanted raise some funds.....
Explore doing single game helmet skins and then selling the skins after.
This has proven to be a huge profit maker

Well the Vikings beat the backers to start the season...
Any of the MN sports fans that even remotely followed the twinks now can just pretend they don't exist and concentrate on planning the Super Bowl parade....
That is untill the 1st round playoff loss in January, and hopes turn to the promise of pitchers and catchers reporting....
Maybe the replacement North Stars distract them for a bit, but....
the promise of a June top of the AL central will eventually return...
This is how 20 years pass in the blink of an eye

That and the open locker room space.
The locker room space WAS the Title IX compliance.
The space could and should have been used to expand The Hockey Academy / hockey facilities, but the accomodations had to made for compliance.
Zero real or rational justification for wasting that prime space on what should be a club sport at best at UND.
