The white border around the logo really looks sharp. Shows that the new logo can be used on a green background and still look good. Looking forward to seeing the merchandise when it comes out!!

I like that they didn't go with the standard block number font that all schools that have a number on their helmet use. This is new and different. I like it.

They are the Notre Dame of Cass County!!

Its the real deal. Its another programs attempt to keep UND fans out of the arena. https://www.mygophersports.com/Online/default.asp?BOparam::WScontent::loadArticle::permalink=MensHockeyPickYourPack&BOparam::WScontent::loadArticle::context_id= I am sure single game tickets will go on sale eventually once they fail to get people to but the packs. Minnesota struggles to get fans to buy tickets for one game. How do they expect fans to commit to 4?!!

Who's ready to get F'Hawked up!! http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/education/4085683-und-blog-get-your-north-dakota-fighting-hawks-gear-starting-aug-13

So does that mean that we will see a lot of Gopher fans dressed up as maroon and yellow seats walking down the strip for Halloween that weekend? Because they sure do like to disguise themselves as those at Mariucci!!

Can 4 days before Halloween really be considered a "holiday weekend?"

Will be interesting to see the numbers for the deals NDSU signed with RFM and KVLY. Must be a pretty penny considering the exclusivity of the deal!!

When 3 Bison fans who post on a rival message board (usually to talk smack) come on here and say how ridiculous this deal is, you know this deal is bad.

I meant prize. I am curious to see what it is.

So does the winner have to keep their mystery item a mystery, or can they share their price on here?!

Much like the requirements for a new nickname were ignored, looks like all of these suggestions were also ignored as well. Just add it to the nickname/logo frustration pile I guess!!

I realize that people make a weekend out of these tournaments and want options of things to do when they are not at the games. But remember the reason you are coming down to the Cities. It's to watch a conference hockey championship tournament. While the other things you do are fun and exciting and add to the overall experience of your trip, the hockey is why you are down there in the first place. Everything associated with the hockey tournament (atomoshphere, ice conditions, concessions, etc) is what I want to be top notch. I think the majority of people who have been to the Frozen Faceoff the past couple years would say that they would trade in all the perks of being in downtown Minneapolis (hotel availability, more restaurants/bars, light rail, etc) to be able to play back at the X.

The UND suite will be fully stocked with booze, celebrities, and Vegas showgirls. #thatshowweroll

#hang8 seemed to be a pretty good one. How bout....wait for it.... #hang9

the B1G tournament is only scheduled through this year (at Joe Louis Arena). So if that rumor is true, the X will have no conference tournaments scheduled for the first time since it opened. Does the X want conference tournaments? Will they make a push to get the Frozen Faceoff to switch venues? Do arena's do that?

Well done Bowling Green.

So the upgrades will be done by 2017. So by the 2018 Frozen Faceoff, fans can expect that what the Target Center is that year is what it will be mostly like from there on out. 2018 is also the last year of the 5 year contract that the NCHC signed with the Target Canter. Most likely, the TC will want to have an extension in place before that. I would like to see the NCHC wait until after the 2018 Frozen Faceoff before signing any extensions. If things were great, then sign an extension. I?f things didn't get better and attendance continues to decline, the NCHC may need to look at other options. Of course a move to the X will only happen if the B1G decides to move to a different arena/city.

Couldn't really ask for a better scenario if you are Wentz. Get two years learning the system without the pressure to instantly succeed. Especially considering he is playing in front of a fanbase that has the NFL's most unrealistic expectations!! (Getting 2nd overall pick money and being the backup is not a bad perk too! Although Wentz is most likely not concerned about the money but about succeeding on the field).

Well I guess you can't say that our new logo isn't unique. Its the only logo out there that can't be reversed and can only be viewed in one direction!!

Same sort of deal that UND fans are getting letting Champions Club members get tickets before they go on sale to the general public. They are reserving a small amount of tickets for Gopher fans to get tickets.
