    Brent Brekke played his youth and high school hockey here in Jamestown 

     My brother was good friends with him growing up, I remember Brent playing catch with me as a kid. Have a signed card of his from his college days. Was drafted or signed by the Avs if I recall correctly, I was fairly young at the time so I might be wrong.

    Anything less than 35-0 is unacceptable.

    Sadly this is true.

    I would take a 20-10-5 if the last win of the season Comes 2nd week of april

     

    if we go 34-1 and last loss is 2nd week of April I’m not for that at all!

     Case in point.

    I doubt very many fans with many years' experience feel that way.

     sorry, l quoted the wrong person and don't know how to get rid of it. 

     

    Let's not pretend the cost of resale market, compared to the product on the ice didn't have an effect on butts in the seats. Cost of tickets goes down, or quality of on ice play goes up, butts return to the seats.

    Lance West and Brent Brekke are the two finalists for the Alaska head coaching job.

    Brekke is a good friend of my brothers, he used to play catch with me a lot when I was little. Good guy, I have a signed card of his from back in his playing days.

    Berry is going nowhere for at least two more years, and it would take two years missing the NCAAs and with declining attendance at that. 

    But, say, the unspeakable (namely that) were to happen, who's on the short list circa 2020. 

    I'm going to say right now it's not Sandy, or Eades, or Herter, or even Steve Johnson. They'll all be knocking on 55 or better. 

    Who is the up and coming coach in the family? 

    Isn't Marto a player coach in the ECHL. Not saying he's division 1 coaching material, but possibly someone to watch. I know I've heard about a former player, that hasn't been gone long, being a great potential future coach, but I can't exactly remember who it is.

    I assume you are referring to 2016 Gardner with Johnson, and (oops, I can't recall) was it Trevor Olson?    Not sure if it makes the cut, I have heard other lines (not necessarily UND) called that before,  it is more a description, like describing a team that plays a heavy game.

     Gardner, Johnson, Poganski.

    Most annoying fan base around. Gave Hak no credit for making the playoffs two years ago, blamed him for last years poor season, and has given him no credit for this years turnaround. I want him to be well cause I really like the guy but I don't want the fan base to have any happiness.

     Sounds vaguely like another fan base Hak has coached for.

    Pathetically I intentionally say good instead of well because I hate when people say doing well with that pretentious smug sound.... they’re usually baristas or servers

    Isn't that your typical barista as it is?

    Just make sure to stay right, there are people passing in the left lane.

     Don't worry, l have no problem being passed by, by fans that think they hold some  sort of moral high ground over a couple logos on some hats.

    I like my bird shirt and bird hat. Stay in the past if you must. 

     And l like the clothes, jerseys, hats, and everything else I've invested thousands of dollars in. You can keep the Burlington Northern/USPS logo. I'll contemplate buying new when there's something that looks decent.

    I seem to recall something about getting to the show early for a player as a way to burn the first of their entry level contract was in the best interest of the player, not sure if I am recall that correctly or if more details make in applicable here. 

     That's for an entry level draft contract. If you sign as a free agent, it can elevate your earning potential. 

  12. I realize you can't realistically keep every player until they are seniors, but could you imagine what this team would look like worth senior Nick Schmaltz, junior Brock Boeser,  and sophomore Tyson Jost in the lineup at forward. Throw in senior Tucker Poolman anchoring the defense with Wolanin opposite him? Good God. 

     

    I don't think we would have any worries about the pairwise bubble bursting and finding ourselves on the outside.

    As said before, St. Cloud would like nothing more than to end our season as we have done to them 2 out of the last 3 years.  Nevermind the fact that if we won twice, it could put us up to a number 3 seed, which would make it a possibility they put St. Cloud in our regional.  I am sure that just like Northeastern and Providence would like to dispose of BC & BU, every team in the Frozen Faceoff would like to see our season ended.  

     EXACTLY! Don't think for one second that the other 3 teams in St. Paul this weekend wouldn't love to be the ones to end UND's season.

    Once the field is selected (a combination of auto-bids and at-large bids ranked by the Pairwise), teams have been moved around within their seeding bands for attendance purposes. Since the mathematical formula (PWR) was developed and made public, there has never been an instance of a team being included in the tourney field over another, more worthy team for financial reasons. And I, for one, am glad for that. In or out, it's all about the math. No more smoke-filled rooms for me.

    Put quite frankly, we wanted in the hard conference, and we haven't played well enough to be in the tourney this year. I'm all for the you want to be there, win it attitude we have to take going into this weekend.

    Wolanin should consider staying another year if only to avoid the Senators and play where he wants to. Considering their treatment of one of game's best players in Karlsson and their obvious tanking he may not want to be a part of that.

    Someone Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, or whatever else the youngins use and get him this information.
