UConn leads Vermont 2-1

UConn leads Vermont 1-0

Hopefully the hockey gods show up in Colorado Springs and will CC to victory and keep Wisconsin winless.

Look at Yale and Union there are not power houses in hockey yet they have won the last two national titles. Michigan has been playing D1 hockey longer then UND, but UND and other schools are closing that gap of national titles to Michigan. Could NDSU catch UND in hockey if they both had D1 hockey programs? Yes they could. Look at Penn State 2nd year in the B1G and out playing Ohio State, Michigan State, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Who can say they saw that coming?

They say it on here every time they come on here.

It's like NDSU fans saying UND's football team will never be as good as NDSU's football team.

The Ohio State band makes up most of the crowd in the Michigan State vs. The Ohio State.

NDSU has Scheels Arena they could use and are using for basketball, I'm sure if NDSU wanted hockey and to use Scheels Arena they could. I don't agree with you on NDSU will never get up to speed with UND.

Isn't Mariucci Arena trying to be more like the Ralph? They added seats that they can't fill and are planning to make the ice surface smaller to add more seating they cant fill now, then added a score board like the one at the Ralph. I don't think the writer has ever seen a Minnesota game on TV.

Montana State's volleyball coach was let go.

http://www.thehockeynews.com/blog/the-top-10-schools-that-should-join-arizona-state-in-going-d1/ Ryan Kennedy's top 10 to add a NCAA team.

If the B1G was going to add school as affiliates, these 4 come to mind UND, Denver, BC, BU these 4 are in the top half on college hockey year in year out. Right now the B1G is relying on Minnesota to make the conference look good in hockey, because 2 of the big boys in the B1G are not carrying their weight (Michigan and Wisconsin).

I don't think he can be drafted.

The same thing can be said about suspending a player, Josh Gordon has yet to learn from being suspended more then once.

The St. Louis Blues just traded Leopold to Columbus so that would open up a spot for Schmaltz. Ladue would just end up buried behind other defensemen in the Kings organization. Forbert has yet to get called up to the Kings because of cap problems, Ladue might be better off staying a year or two and you'd have to think the Kings have to like how defensemen develop at UND and wouldn't mind him staying.

Arizona could be the next after Arizona State to move up to D1 they have a arena now that seats 5,000+. It will be interesting to see what the other schools in Arizona State's conference (ACHA D1) do now that Arizona State is moving up. Denver and CC are not going anywhere without UND. Colorado's hockey is sounding like they want to move up with Arizona State. I'm not sure university of Denver would like another school in the Denver area to go D1 in hockey. BYU has a D3 club team that plays at the Olympic arenas in Provo.

I saw the Lowell game, I believe that everyone makes Thatcher Demko seem better then he really is.

There is a comment on ESPN's story about the suspension that kind of goes with what you are saying, "The NFL bases it's suspensions on how much publicity a case gets and how upset the public is".

The Friday and Saturday games will be more telling of UConn. Vermont and BU at UConn.

From 2000 to 2013 SEC has won 8 national titles with 7 being in a row. in that same time frame BIG XII won 2 titles (2000 and 2005), Big East won one in 2001, ACC won one last year, B1G won one in 2003, and PAC-10 had their vacated (2004). All I'll say is Missouri is still better then Michigan.

It does seem like the NFL has a dart board with suspensions on it and just throws a dart blindly at it to come up with a suspension.

I wouldn't agree with that, Alabama was on a 17 year title drought until Nick Saban came along. If Gene Stallings didn't win one in 1992 that would be 30 years with no title, and the same can be said about Saban.

Nebraska was given $7 million from John Breslow to build a hockey arena for the University of Nebraska. John Breslow was a owner of the Phoenix Coyotes. The Breslow Ice Center is suppose to be built next to Haymarket Park. The City of Lincoln has yet to give it approval because of costs, it is planed to have two NHL size ice sheets seating for 750 and it was also going to be used by youth leagues in Lincoln. The Breslow Ice Center has nothing to do with Nebraska moving to the B1G hockey conference.
