Are they though? Isnt UND (60) 2 comparisons back of BU (62)? I fear the comparison loss to CC will prevent UND from reaching #2 in PWR. The 0-4 record against them is a pairwise killer.

Yes, after he was committed to Omaha, but before he played at Wisconsin.

2023-24 University of North Dakota Hockey Season

Neither. But boy, I wonder how he’ll handle Detroit/NHL where beat reporters actually offer critical takes about the teams they follow; maybe he transfers to the Grand Rapids Griffins? -

“It’s too much pressure playing for this team that can’t win an NCAA tournament game, if we even make it, so I’ll just transfer to the reigning national champions.” Weird. -
I don’t get the Minnesota comparison? They’ve won 5 NCAA games the last 2 seasons; those players got their team to overtime of the national championship last season. North Dakota, on the other hand, in the last 7 seasons, has only beat AIC in the national tournament. That’s it.

2023-24 ND High School Hockey
Benny Baker replied to NoiseInsideMyHead's topic in Non-collegiate sports
Bismarck High will be fine. Southport, South Bay, and Fox Island (all BHS) are the highest taxed properties in Bismarck. Lots of families with young hockey players and plenty of literal bays for them to play hockey on during the winter. -
Travesty if true. World’s oldest hockey arena, I believe, and original home of the Boston Bruins.
-
Interesting. But I wonder how many collective minutes Celebrini, Hutson, and Willander played for BU tonight?
-
Those are excuses. One of those “top” players has only played 12 of 19 games this year anyway.
-
Lol. Just look to the last time Bubs lost an exhibition game—two years ago to the same US 18 team—and UND got bounced in the first round of playoffs.
-
I’m not much for positive spin, but… … this team will never play 3x3 OT during NCHC or NCAA playoffs … These 3x3 in overtime loses are meaningless when it comes to 5x5 hockey.

What is the process a school must follow to obtain the rights to the US hockey HoF game? -
The current Supreme Court does not care what the NCAA thinks or will come up with.

Kansas State played Sugar Bowl just last season. Not bad.

Geminis where approximately 1995-1996 through 2001-2002. 95-96 was first year with the geometric logo. In 96-97, the ND shoulder patches were added and the same design used until 2000-2001. I believe Gemini did the first jersey with the Brien logo when new Engelstad opened in 2001. Nike took over the following season, 2002-2003, but I don’t think there was really any difference between the two.

100% These same damn things happened last week in Denver. Blake had a brutal offensive zone turnover last Friday in the 1st that could have easily made it 5-1 Denver by the end of the first. HJ took an offensive zone penalty 30 seconds into UNDs first power play last Friday too. It’s as if Bubs and staff got back from Denver and decided to do absolutely zero coaching and film watching this week …

How many years do we think Livanavage plays in a UND jersey? Given his play, and not having been drafted, I wonder if and when an NHL club makes him an offer to leave early. -
UND Hawks @ UMD Bulldogs - Start of NCHC Play
Benny Baker replied to brianvf's topic in Men's Hockey
I hear ya. There’s been a few—98, 99, 21 NCAAs—but 2011 FF has always been the toughest loss for me to swallow as a Sioux fan. I think Sioux were riding something like a 16 game winning streak and outshot Michigan 40 to 20. -

… and then 4.5 months later Duluth wins its first of 3 national championships that decade … -
Maybe Worcester doesn't count as Boston, but: https://fightinghawks.com/news/2005/3/24/769232.aspx was still a helluva Sioux win out east against BU.

Ditto. ESPN+ is the best bang for your buck for any sports fan out there.

Senden or Hain for one more year or get Spicer into your program? We know how Senden and Hain worked out, and Spicer’s had a really nice start to just his second season.

Not sure which thread is best to post this question, but... Does anyone have a list of the top 20ish 06 and 07 recruits? (I know there is Schlossman's list, but I understand that to be a mix a high-end talent, players UND will be pursuing, and more local names. I am wondering if there is more objective (to the extent possible) list of the top recruits out there).
