Southern New Hampshire University is said to be considering a DI move on another board. SNHU only has 3000 students on campus but enrolled 60k online. The school recently bought naming rights to the former Verizon Arena in Manchester, which holds 9800 for hockey. SNHU plays in the DII Northeast-10 league now and has a DII hockey team in the Northeast10. Might be a school to look out for in hockey and as a new DI school. The AHA may have interest.
Going DI would be looked at as an advertising expense by their admin, considering the ads you see now for SNHU. DI and hockey would further legitimize SNHU as a real school.
I don't think any of the DII schools that play DIII can move up.

Mountain West Connection might want to some background checking before they release stories (they make it sound like UNLV is going NCAA D1).

A defending national champion joke.
Not to dismiss PSU at all, but Michigan isn't exactly looking like a powerhouse thus far this season.
And before we give the title to the Nittany Lions, we have to remember that they've played 9 of their 14 games against Niagara, Alaska Anchorage, Canisius, Arizona State, and Mercyhurst. That's a brutally easy SOS.It'll be interesting to watch the rest of their season to see how it goes...and to see how far they can make it in the NCAA's.
Don't forget they have been playing mostly at home.

Anyone know what this is? And how does UND get involved? I am always looking for a reason to go abroad.
The Hockey East commissioner is in charge of it, so unless you are in the Hockey East and ECAC you'll most likely never get invited.
It's a Beanpot tournament in Ireland.

I hear a lot about breakaways against us... Is the shift to offensive minded defensemen leaving us vulnerable when the D corps is young?
A few were on line changes in the second period, where one of the defenseman didn't stay back to pick the new player up.

I saw that article....if you back out the SCSU weekend how does his numbers look in November? The good thing about statistics is that you can slice and dice them and throw out the outliers. And I honestly haven't checked.
Edit: So I checked.....excluding the SCSU games, Cam's save % is 88.28% so far in November. 6 total games (MN, Denver, and MSU).
It was at .8xx and his goals against was at 3.xx if I remember right and then he shut out St. Cloud back to back nights.
Right now Cam is not in the top 30 in the nation is SV% and there are 3 in the NCHC in the top 30 in SV% (Jaillet, Larkin, and Miska).

It was announced that UNLV was approved to move up to ACHA D1. This has been known for a while now.
Looks like UNLV's move to the NCAA D1 is on hold for now. The AD who is pro hockey is leaving and hopefully for UNLV the new AD will listen to what they have to say and maybe move up the NCAA level.

So, what you are saying is that we, UND, needs to score more goals than our opponents.
Hmmm...
Have you approached the coaching staff with this strategy?
The coaching staff said they will only talk to the greatest hockey mind that is DaveK.

The Miami vs Denver 3x3 was terrible to watch on the Friday game, the Saturday 3x3 Miami was in denvers end the whole time and was much better to watch. But it wasn't back and forth like you would want to see.

Totally disagree, keikla. It's all fun and games until Berry throws Boeser, Gersich, and Jost out there to "practice" 3x3...and promptly witnesses one of those three crumple to the ice after being slammed into the boards by an opposing player.
Would any player or fan have felt better about the weekend after seeing a Hawks goal in the 3x3? Nope.
I would have been not happy even if they would have won Saturday after loosing Friday.

Not saying this is what will happen but since 2005 at least half of the champions have failed to make the tourney the following season. Even mighty BC failed to make it after one of their titles.
In 2005 Denver was going for a 3-peat.

Are there special things they are doing ?
Some of these are below or average teams with not so special players
Is it just luck ?
Or our bad play ?
Bad play and not doing the simple fundamental things you should be doing at this level.

Per Schlossman's article, the players had a player-only meeting after the game last night. I seem to remember that happening a few years ago. I can't remember the specific year, but I remember Grimaldi making some comments about the total honesty regarding teammates calling each other out about their need to step up, etc.. Hopefully this team responds post-meeting like that team did. It really was a turning point in that season.
Why does this have to happen every to every other year? It gets old, same with the slow starts. How is it that other good teams figure it out day one and not half way through the year.
There are some quote I don't agree with, one being from Berry.
Quote"I thought we battled and competed," Berry said. "The players did a lot of what we asked of them—blocked shots and competed and played a 60-minute timeframe. Obviously, we were short a goal to win the game, but for the most part they played the way we wanted them to and with the effort we needed."
They didn't show up at all this weekend except for one part of the third in Fridays game. Berry needs to stop with the "coach talk" and come out and say they lost to a bad team and looked past Michigan State, and thought Michigan State was a easy win.
This from Wolanin.
Quote"It's not that we're young. It's not that we have no leaders. It's just a mindset we have to develop."
So where are these leaders? Because I haven't seen them yet. If the guys with letters on their jerseys don't want to lead then give it to someone who does.

If you have to have a players only meaning tonight after not responding to last night's s**t show there are some real issues in that locker room that have zero to do with talent.
This meeting should have happened after Duluth or Minnesota, two beatable teams.

I don't think we hang #8 in April if Berry is too much of a players coach. I think this is just a very young team trying to figure out how to win at this level. I remember the 2005-06 team looking worse than this early on and look where they ended up.
They are 15 games into the season, the "we have a young team" excuse doesn't apply anymore. Just like the underclassmen excuse, Sophomores are not undreclassmen to me they where here last year so they know how to get it done.

Hennessy just said on the radio, player meeting going on right now, no player interview.

All three goals Cam should have had, yes the second goal was because of a turnover but if Cam doesn't slide out of his net it's not a goal. At some point Berry needs to send the message to Cam that replaced when he doesn't stop the shots he should have had. Right now Cam knows no matter how he plays he will not be pulled or one of the others will get a start.
It doesn't look like these guys don't watch tape to see the mistakes they make over and over. Passing is terrible, forcing the puck to someone, trying to make fancy passes, and shooting when a pass is the better option.
I don't know if Berry is a players coach, but after this weekend time to be a hard ass, this is an embarrassment and a joke.
I feel that there needs to be a change in the D-pairings put the Poolmans together and Saw or Wolanin with Gage.
Right now this team should feel embarrassed. Time to figure it out because playing bad now can make you miss the NCAA's at the end of the year.

Hate to say it but this is a huge 20 minutes coming up..........and we haven't hit December yet.
Lose this period and might as well plan on winning the Penne Rosa to get to Fargo.
Winning that has not gone well for those teams, 0-3 in the NCAA tournament,

So, how can something be uncharacteristic when in fact it is characteristic.
Now there are fans on both sides that are not happy with the B1G starting a hockey conference, because the B1G has killed rivalries. As much as you, DaveK, want to blame us UND fans who are not vocal against the B1G as much as fans in the WCHA or B1G have been. Then again remember the B1G caused the NCHC to be formed, the CCHA to fold, and the WCHA to be reorganized, but you will blame the NCHC for everything. You do realize the a lot of the bad mouthing of the B1G is coming form fans in the B1G.
Shouldn't you be over in GPL or did they ban you? You said you were only a fan of UND because of the Sioux name, which means you were never really a fan.
