I believe UND should never adopt a new nickname. Clearly with no nickname Sioux fans have continued to use the nickname at games and in referring to the University of North Dakota. No nickname: the fans will continue to unofficially use "The Fighting Sioux".

Sorry the statement added to previous post got posted incorrectly. My part of statement said So Austria has a way to stop it or was there something in Mr. Earl's prior environment that caused the flopping around. Any ideas - maybe poor coordination that might have improved as he aged or different rules or coaching or skate sharpening procedure or or or... Any other ideas lol

Which pool is Robbie working at.

Major concerns I have for the game is the Wisconsin actors trying to sell penalties. Diving seems to exist in the game when the Badgers play. Just watch the game in which all Sioux fans were watching - it was easy to overlook the diving because we wanted Wisconsin to win - but look at the game and they tried to get undeserved penalties. Can we expect the behavior to continue.
-
And when was the national trophy for UND? Nice to be in the tournament. Yes very nice. Nicer to win four in the tournament.
-
I wonder if Wisconsin players are thinking "what have we done!" Wisconsin won, letting UND into the tournament and now they get to play a team (Sioux), who has a very high chance to knock them out of the tournament. Sioux players you have your opportunity now stick it to the badgers.
-
Most will slap themselves on the head and say "why did we have to play them?" If Sioux played very near home, guessing there would be a lot of sore heads in dinky town.

Did the NCHC decision to play a consolation game in it's tournament, play a factor in getting a third NCHC team in the nationals? Which at this moment is likely the Fighting Sioux.
-
Three NCHC teams in the national, not bad. Truly feel that this was a rough year for the teams in the NCHC. I believe their best regular season inter-league games are yet to come.

I would love to see Sioux against Union.

I would feel better to use UND Flame rather then flames like a hockey team in the great white north. (Taken from posts in June 2011) - However I would prefer just UND because Sioux would be informally used by the fans. Flame without an (s) so it is unique and part of our heritage based on school motto of "Lux et Lex"(Latin) meaning "Light and Law". Flame could work if we had to choose. But not Flame(s)! I have a forty two year history as a student and alum - hard to let go of Sioux because one of my best friends father was 100% Sioux and a Medal of Honor recipient. Both father and son are now deceased and not sure how today they would have felt about the use of the name Sioux. I heard rumors that UND may have the uniform from this great american. That would be cool since my grandmother used to sew the medals on his uniform. This man was a fighting American who was loved by people who shared his ancestry.

My very first hockey game was the first night the old Ralph had the first game ever. Sat right next to the guy with the red light. Was right on the ice behind the glass. East end of the rink. Spent a lot of time ducking even with the glass between myself and the puck. LOL. But I was very hooked and loved going to the games win or lose or lose or lose. That was about the ratio. But they won that first night.

Sat through those stretches of loses. But liked Rube and his asst. coaches. Had a blast at the games. Great memories. Made me a solid fan.

Ok then you are now appointed to go hire York. I was going to say east coast region but only included Boston. As my UND kids would say "my bad". Time to take action. Time to be productive and solve this fictious problem that this blog is creating. All those upset with Hakstol need to get together and get York here or maybe the coach of the Russian Olympic team or or or or.....
-
Let's look at it this way. Jerry York gets hired as UND coach. His record would not be as good as Hakstol. Why? Jerry does not have a very good record when he gets outside the Boston area. Let's keep Dave. Truth is the more you read this blog arguments are nothing more than what ifs. Hakstol is doing the job and creates players.
