I think we should hire that Philadelphia firm that runs the Alerus Center and has turned that place around in a very short period of time. They know what they are doing.

Not in so many words, no. But that was the gist of the message I was getting from the hockey-only crowd on this forum. #readbetweenthelines

Just stating the facts, son.

I pointed this out months ago, but was told to shut up and kiss her royal feet. Pigs will fly and hell will freeze over before that happens.

Thank God we have the other two.

If we finish 9-2 and don't get at least one home game, that will make the entire process a joke. Even Bison fans will say that.

We weren't a "darling" of anyone in 2016 either.

That was two years ago. I am not buying that conspiracy theory.

It was enough in 2016 for a #7 seed and a first-round bye. It should be again.

Screw 7-4, screw 8-3, I want 9-2 and a first round bye. #justwinbaby

I always loved that one!

Putting Santiago in the slot would create major match-up problems for defenses. Putting him in the slot with JJ and Brady in the backfield would be even better.

This team is a work in progress. Saturday night's win was a big step forward, but now we are playing an historical rival in Las Vegas. That will be another big test for this team. The best players on this team are not upperclassmen, which is why you are seeing the ups and downs from one game to the next and even one shift to the next. The potential is there to be very, very good. I think by December or January we'll know what we have.

I have to agree with this.

So that excuses it? Not in my book. If Forum Communications doesn't care about the Heraldo, just sell it off to someone who does. Maybe do what the Green Bay Packers do and have it owned by the community? #justathought

There is potential with this team, they just have to put it all together at the same time.

Mankato 1 UND 0 Hot Goalie for the Mavs.

We shouldn't bring these out of storage!

We put Altru on the Alerus Center turf, but we won't cut a deal with Sanford? Please tell me how that is smart.

Winning will solve 95% of these problems. Winning consistently from year to year will do wonders for attendance for every group. The problem is people are always waiting for the next shoe to drop with the team being good one week and not-so-good the next. That has been the problem for this program for 10 years now. Hopefully this season is the start of a new era. #justwinbaby

I am still in somewhat of a wait and see mode with this team, but I kind of feel the same. Just keep getting better week in and week out and we'll have a second chance in the playoffs.

If we run the table, we won't have to worry about it. #justwinbaby

There is a difference between a selection committee and a media and/or coaches poll. #applesandoranges

Like I said, just win baby.

Polls mean jack squat. Just win baby.
