SiouxTupa Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 So what's the scoop on LaDue? One of the team's more important players. We probably won't find out until tomorrow at media day. I'm sure it'll be brought up in today's Herald chat though. 1 Quote
.357 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Miami still puts Tomahawks on the wall in the football locker room after big wins. Too bad this is hockey or Miami would have two more Tomahawks going up on Monday. No offense directed at you, but I wonder why UND never partook in goofy rituals like stickers on helmets, decals in locker rooms after victories. I'm guessing it's because winning itself is the most important kind of ritual.. Quote
Goon Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 So is one of these games this weekend on FCS? As of right now, nope. Quote

InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 They partake in the traditional banner raising ritual after the season is over. Now there's a tradition I can get behind. Quote
.357 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 They partake in the traditional banner raising ritual after the season is over. That would be an unequivocal truism of the highest order. Maybe someone who's wasted his money in numerology training can tell us if 8 & 15 are winning combinations (8th championship in the year 2015). Quote
siouxfan512 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 For those who were asking about FCS; UND's website posted about a half hour ago that the Saturday game will be on FCS. Here what the website says: GRAND FORKS, N.D. – The National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) announced today that 11 NCHC games have been added to the league’s national television schedule on FOX College Sports (FCS) in 2014-15, including seven involving the University of North Dakota. The five home games, produced in high-definition by Midco Sports Network (MidcoSN), include games against Miami (Nov. 15), Omaha (Nov. 29), Colorado College (Jan. 24), Denver (Feb. 14) and St. Cloud State (Feb. 28). Dan Hammer is his third season as the play-by-play voice for UND Athletics while former UND forward Scott Koberinski returns as color analyst. Veteran broadcaster Katie Hale also returns as the ice-level intermission reporter. UND will also have two road games air nationally on FCS: the Jan. 31 game at Omaha, produced by PBS affiliate Nebraska Educational Telecommunications (NET1), and the March 7 game at Miami, produced by Time Warner Cable Sports Channel in Ohio. Today’s announcement increased the number of regular-season UND men’s hockey national broadcasts in 2014-15 to 13, up from seven in 2013-14. This year’s national broadcast schedule also includes six previously-announced games on CBS Sports Network (CBSSN): vs. Minnesota Duluth (Jan. 10), vs. Colorado College (Jan. 23), at Omaha (Jan. 30), at Western Michigan (Feb. 20), vs. St. Cloud State (Feb. 27) and at Miami (March 6).

.357 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 To this point, UND has played a lot of weaker teams (bottom half of the 59 in D-1). And except for 1 night against Bemidji, its been a series of solid performances, including a road sweep at Madison. This weekend, we get a top tier opponent for the first time. Its a good time to see just how good UND is. One trait or knack I've noticed with this team is their ability to ramp it up in the 3rd period, to take their game to a higher level. I think this has to do with the quality of their physical training, their mental toughness & the leaders on this team. The coaches can preach this until they're blue in the face, but it's up to the players to adopt it as part of their identity: a team that can finish. All champions finish games strong, whether it's in the regular season or the national tournament. Let's see if the guys are still playing this way in April. Quote
Goon Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 As of right now, nope. change number 461. Quote

Been waiting too long with too many missed opportunities. We've had the undoubted best team in the nation 3 times since our last title. 1 Quote

Goon Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Any update on Ladue? I would imagine there won't be one till tomorrow. Unless Brad goes to practice before the Chat. Quote

.357 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 The loss to Michigan will forever sting. That was our year! Living in the past makes us depressed & worrying about the future makes us anxious. Both make us gray, unhappy & think bad things. Quote
siouxfan512 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Living in the past makes us depressed & worrying about the future makes us anxious. Both make us gray, unhappy & think bad things. Ha true, but that was such a fun season, what a great and deep team. Still I think we can do some serious damage this year. Hopefully Mac will be able to bounce back from his wrist injury by January.

#MACtion Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Why does everybody keep saying Miami has good forwards but no goalie? Miami's Jay Williams just got NCHC Goalie of the week. Leads the NCHC in wins (7-1) Is second in the NCHC in GAA (1.64) and has a save % of .921 http://www.nchchockey.com/page/show/1219043-nchc?subseason=161626 Those stats looks good too me. I hope UND is overlooking our defense because of the injuries Miami had last year. We also have some D transfers. Quote
#MACtion Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Oh BTW, the NCHC's #1, #3, #4, and #5 Top Goal Scorers all hail from Miami. http://www.nchchockey.com/page/show/1219043-nchc?subseason=161626 Miami has the NCHC's Top Point Leader, Top Scorer, Top Assist Leader, and Top Goalie Winner. The NCHC stats page is lit up red.... Quote

Haha, I was actually going to note that earlier but didn't want to burst anyone's bubble. Their schedule hasn't been that tough though. Quote
