UND's New Hockey Conference

[southpaw]

This is a fantastic troll job and well deserved. SCSU has had a lot of NCHC success and have been an integral part of the conference's top ranking every year. 

Nothing wrong with the poster calling out those who were wrong.

So essentially never...

Imagine the egg on the face of the NCHC had Notre Dame accepted the initial invitation only to leave after 3-4 seasons for the B1G...St Cloud State always made sense as the 8th team.

I don't think ND leaves the NCHC. HE was a horrible travel situation, and the B10 only eventually wanted them.  The NCHC said no after the Irish made ridiculous demands and burned bridges. 

And at that point, if they do leave the NCHC would be $1M richer and have more schools begging to get in.

When your team actually wins a National Title game then come talk smack to us.

I think you're right. I don't see UND moving anywhere. They've got a great deal in the NCHC. There's like 1.5 Million reasons why they won't move. 

This has been the best league in college hockey. No reason to leave it.

Talk some smack. Or do they not do that in Wisconsin?

Wow, someone dredges up my ancient posts.  I'm barely gratified, but I wish I had that much time on my hands.

It's UND's current offensive strategy.  Gain possession and chirp it off the glass.

HAHAHAHA that was soooo adorable, Pump It Up. Happy Monday, guys!

Quite a few empty seats = Only 10k in attendance...when most teams struggle to get 3k thru the door on a good night

Outside of Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin, the B1G really isn't that exciting.

I think they'd have still left. ND has a long history or at least a lot of familiarity with the B1G teams, particularly UM and MSU. Easier to sell hockey tickets in South Bend when you can market Michigan coming to town rather than Nebraska-Omaha. Whether it's right or wrong, that's another matter I am not sure of.

would you rather have michigan, minny, wisconsin, and notre dame coming to town every year or st cloud, duluth, omaha, and denver?

The only two teams in the B1G that have their buildings looking full is Michigan and Penn State.

You'd choose Michigan or Notre Dame over SCSU, Duluth or DU? It's not even close, in my book.

[cberkas]

Joining the B1G would increase travel costs, only 2 bus trips a year.

As far as rivalries go. To me it's this:

1) Minny
2) DU
3) Duluth
4) Wisconsin
5) St. Cloud

Michigan and Notre Dame are nowhere near that Top 5.
