I think there was one UNO icing.

Not an encouraging period. But it's still 0-0.

Exactly what I was thinking. We have some tough conference games coming up. We cannot leave league points on the table at home.

Yes, you need guys like that to hang banners (both white AND green).

He's not in the NCHC anymore.

This team needs to decide whether they want to be elite or merely good. Losing to an unranked team at home does not scream "elite". We have two months until the playoffs. We better figure it out before then.

Giving up 4 goals in regulation is my concern.

If we want to celebrate title #9 on the ice in St. Paùl on April 13th, we better figure out how to not give up this many goals this often. We better tighten up in our own end once the playoffs start.

Sounds like Players from the 1990's. I still miss that place.

If this happens, Chaves need to go.

I will continue my Champions Club donations and keep my football and hockey tickets. I will continue supporting UND in every way I can. But there is no questioning that the athletic department is as low as its ever been in my lifetime (I turn 50 in May). And pretending that things "aren't that bad" will only make the hole deeper and more difficult to get out of.

Alabama's Nick Saban retires according to ESPN report.

Sorry, but that's none of our business (sarcasm).

If Chaves gives him another contract extension..................

He isn't wrong.

But that would involve "spending other people's money" and that would be just plain wrong.

Now Bubba can bring Rudy back and be one happy family again.

I will renew both my FB and Hockey tickets. And I will support all our teams win, lose or draw. Like I always have and always will. And unlike certain bandwagoners who have abandoned UND for NDSU because they "wanted to be a part of it", I will never pull a Benedict Arnold and switch sides.

That's the ticket!

Don't bother. He'll just go into Father Knows Best mode, telling you how the real world works and that everything that can be done has been done and it's not constructive to discuss it on a discussion forum (yeah, I know, can't make it up). Then he'll wrap it up by telling you the solution is to send some emails. With thinking like that, no wonder our athletic department looks like a high school department instead of a Division I collegiate department.

No, it isn't the arena itself. It's how it has been managed.

I've let that go. Time to focus on the stretch run to the playoffs.

They still only managed a home split. Not what they were shooting for. Good thing they can't do that with postseason games.

I count 4 (NDSU, SDSU, Montana, Montana State). Are you including USD in that?

I don't think we know enough about the situation to analyze it. That said, I hope it works out for him.
