I hate to burst your bubble, but DU is a pretty decent program. You can't recruit them all. I can tell you this, Randklev is the real deal. I was impressed with him when I watched Tonka and Moorhead play earlier this year. He's got some serious speed.
As a Bruins fan, I am all for moving forward with a new goal song. In a way I feel UND stole it from Chicago.
I used to have it as my ring tone on my phone until the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals. I deleted the song from my iTunes.
Look at the numbers again, you talking about 22.5% versus 20.5% that isn't a lot. Since January 1, 2018, UND has a higher PP percentage than DU. 21.9 vs 16.1...
No one was comparing their PK's. UND has taken about 39 more penalties.
I was checking the stats yesterday, a grand total of five players played all 36 games this season. That probably played into their problems this season. The top-two lines are finally getting some chemistry. If you think about it, there’s a fine line between the top teams and the bottom.
UND stats:
Offense 29th 2.86 GPG
Defense 14th 2.44 GAPG
PP 32/156 20.5%
PK 120/147 81.6%
For comparison sake, DU's PP is 34/151 22.5%

He’s by far one of the toughest players I’ve seen play at UND lately. When people run into him, many times they drop to the ice. He’s very smart player.
