Midco is all about high school football/basketball only, they could care less about hockey unless it is UND which really butters their bread. Ditto for high school baseball/softball…they don’t care.
Half the problem is there is no publicity machine or engine for ND high school hockey. There is no central organization pulling in the same direction. No one has taken the reins to promote the sport. There is no Youth Hockey Hub or Hockey Talk or any chatter at all promoting Prep hockey in ND like there is in MN.
Bingo....
and quite frankly it seems hockey is nothing but an inconvenience to the NDHSAA...

What a horses$@t broadcast for the girls first semi final. No replays, no interviews and choppy video. Way to go WDAY.
It was better than the stream of the first 2 boys ganes today.
Absolutely garbage that there was no stream AND they made anyone doing a fbook live to shut it down.
Embarrasing for NDHSAA... WDAY... and North Dakota Hockey as a whole.
Brutally pathetic

Berry gonna lock him down soon?
I think he needs some Jrs time and to play at a higher level with and against higher level dudes... but I would think hes "absolutely in the realm if the recruitable". fun kid to watch

Minot has minimal skill up front. Minot goalie was the first star IMO.

Don't sleep on Morelli, he's skilled and quick, he'll be a force as long as he stays in Minot..... which is also Minot's Achilles heel.... pretty solid flight risk to jrs.

Top 2 now from west regular season..... gone.

Still the best story in ND hockey is the people keeping a program going in Hazen Beulah....
Its an absolute testament to the sport and dedication that they can keep the kids engaged and willing to keep coming out year after year.
They are proof time and again that with a 2 class system that would offer a glimmer of hope for some competitive contests.... more schools could play in a high school league and offer the Varsity experience, and a chance to legit compete for a title to more kids.

They gutted out heroic performances against hockey powerhouses: #5 Williston; and #7 Bottineau/Rugby en route to Fargo.
By "heroic performances" you must mean some of the ugliest unskilled slopfu&k hockey ever put on the ice in the state of ND.
Williston was an imploded disaster, 2 kids who wanted to play and thats it.
Bottineau had a kid or two as well but other than that would have been a much better fit as a middle of the pack Jr Gold team talent wise.
Century was incredibly unskilled this year and played without heart, or disipline... was sad to watch. They need to adapt to the reality of the split and work much much harder.
BHS was even less skilled, BUT played with heart, however... did I mention the unskilled, and undisiplined part..... woof... add in horrendously missplaced and outmatched coaching ..... was doomed from the start.
Of the state teams.
Jamestown has a superstud and some other talented kids, best chance in years for thar program, hope they make some waves cause there's absolutely no reason for Nenow to waste another year of development in the WDA.
Minot was an enigma, at times looked capable and other times completely disjointed.... wild card at state .. who knows.
Legacy... modestly talented, well coached, but not talented enough. I think they will be the premier program in Bismarck for quite some time due to coaching alone, and the desire to play for the coaching staff... not just Mario. A good story but won't contend.
Mandan.... embarrassing for the state of ND hockey that they are there and a team like GFC isnt. A Huge blow to the 4 east 4 west format going forward. Anything less than a 2 touchdown loss will be celebrated in their local hockey programs for generations.

Ok so.. my preseason prefictions where .... off to say the least...
That being said...
Jamestown 5 Sheyenne 3
Davies 8 Minot 1
GFRR 7 Legacy 2
South 19 Mandan 0
(fyi... Mandan may be the worst team to ever play in the state tourney)
Davies > Jamestown
South > GFRR
Davies > South

The East is so much better than the West this year. Bismarck schools are now watered down because of the addition of Legacy. Minot still losing kids to juniors. It should be a clean sweep for the East at state once again
My darkhorse pics of Williston and Dickinson are sure not coming to fruition.
Jamestown and Minot have the best shot.
Bis High is completely devoid of talent but is too stupid to know it so they work hard, Ill give em that.
Crntury and Legacy simply cant score and to date havent outworked anybody.
RR and Davies both look damn good.

Up to Jan 12th
East is 19-0 vs West
Goals 105-25........ woof.

Sanderson should absolutely go to the Olypmics.
USA hockey has been a huge part of his development and opportunities.
He doesn't "owe" UND anything more than he "owes" USA Hockey, in fact if you want to think of it like that, quite a bit less actually.
I do, however, think it's going to be a gong show.
95% chance Olympics get cancelled 50-70% the way through.... add in the 5+ weeks of quarantine and it about burns the regular season...
at that point, the Debbie Downer... or the Randy Realist in me sees a UND team on the outside of the tourney looking in.....
At that point Ottawa, again looking at anything to dangle infront of their tortured fans.... has to push superhard to sign the WJC captain / Olympian.
They promise NHL games for the rest of the season.
He signs, because, thats the dream the goal. I would, you would, we all would.
And I'll wish him the best and be happy he chose UND as a part of what made his dream a reality.
As should we all.

Its our white elephant we don't talk about....
The Ralph is as dead as an empty library from the first intermission to the last 5 mins of the 3rd....
the bar and concourse is packed during that time, I'd doubt 85% of the people there can tell you the opponent or score, let alone know UND lineups,
The fact is, REA is a social scene now more than ever, that and a nice place to trade grain and find acres to rent.
the real fans are found on the road now, it's just the way it is.

I think they are counting on Walz and the NCAA to handle that.

For college hockey, I'd really like to see ESPN move away from Bucci. He can't see past his love for Hockey East and the B1G.
He cant see past his own makeup...
He just panders to the largest market that will buy whatever flavor of the season he can rile up.

Future of the UND Football Program
in Football
Posted
ooooof......
Just when the football program needed an invigorating cold shower and some awakening... it settles for adding a bit more tepid water to the already lukewarm bath....
I thought the worst call all year was going for it on 4th.... but punting here isnt much better.
