scpa0305 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.... Have they played more NCHC games? Try looking at overall's next time, or maybe averages? Let's compare apples to apples here. 1 Quote
SiouxScore Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Yea they haven't play Bemidji St Bemidji State is probably better than CC, Bowling Green, Ohio State, and St. Lawrence. 2 Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Bemidji State is probably better than CC, Bowling Green, Ohio State, and St. Lawrence. I'd go as far as say thing they are better. Quote

MafiaMan Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 The loss to Michigan will forever sting. That was our year! Which one? 1998 or 2011? I say both. Quote
siouxfan512 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Which one? 1998 or 2011? I say both. Well I would have to say 2011. I was actually a huge Gopher fan until I went up to school in Grand Forks in the fall of '03. Grew up with season tickets at Mariucci, then saw the light when I went to college! I'll cheer for the Goofs in football, basketball, wrestling, etc. (As long as we aren't playing them). But I could not dislike that hockey team more. 2 Quote
Siouxman Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Which one? 1998 or 2011? I say both.I would think that someone named "MafiaMan" would want to keep a pretty low profile about the 1998 fiasco. Talk about jinxing the team. Quote
Blackheart Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I would think that someone named "MafiaMan" would want to keep a pretty low profile about the 1998 fiasco. Talk about jinxing the team. Some say he was in the building in 1998 when UND played the Wolverine. Hmmm... Quote
Siouxman Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Some say he was in the building in 1998 when UND played the Wolverine. Hmmm...And some say he was on TV spouting off about booking it to the Frozen Four before the game was over. Double hmmm.......... Quote
Go Redskins Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 We all know Miami has some good high end forwards the question is do they have any depth or do they have to have these guys score every game? Pretty similar, both clubs with 6 guys with 3 or more goals. Miami with 4 players 5+, how long is macwilliams out for? I know we won't be seeing him this weekend, just curious. Quote
Redneksioux Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Macwilliam graduated and is playing for an organization called the maple leafs. Quote

I know we won't be seeing him this weekend, just curious. Haven't heard for sure how long McMillan is out, but he won't be in the line-up this weekend. I am happy to see Taylor Richart is healthy and playing well again. Family friend, good kid. Quote

I know we won't be seeing him this weekend, just curious. MacMillan is out indefinitely there has been lots of different speculation about exactly how long he will be out but no official timetable. I think a big part of it will be how long it will take him to regain strength in the wrist after everything is healed my guess is we won't see him back until the 2nd half of the season. Quote
siouxweet Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Those things must get dusty. That looks like about 25 years worth right there. no kidding, when was the last time their football team had a big win, when big ben was there? Quote
.357 Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 I think it's cute when fans of lesser hockey powers come on board and try to impress UND fans with how good their team is. Kinda like how a little brother wants to impress a big brother or a son trying to make his dad proud of him. But seriously, if UND plays with a lot of edge throughout, I think we'll have a lot of success.. Quote

It doesn't much matter now who the powers were in 1987. If Union can walk in and demolish the best of the rest, they are not a lesser power. 2 Quote

But my post was mostly for chuckles instead of being serious and to start some good-natured back & forth talk .. that's why I put that wink in there. But I think there's an element, albeit small, of fans from lesser-established programs to want to impress the fans of programs who've been around since early-mid last century. IE, if we were to play Bama in football, we'd want them to recognize us as being legitimate rivals; & they'd be like, "Yawn, whatever." Quote
#MACtion Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 I'm a football fan first, then hockey, and as bad as Miami Football is right now, they'd still demolish UND so I would't consider Miami a lesser program with nearly 700 wins and good for Top 25 wins in all of FBS. Quote
#MACtion Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Glad UND, the Alabama of hockey (eyes rolling), yawns at Miami. Complacent is fine. 1 Quote

I meant a lesser program within hockey as far as tradition goes. Within football, you are right; Miami would slaughter UND..but Bama would beat you guys silly in football. I don't know of any college hockey teams that would beat UND silly. My point: UND is the creme de la creme in hockey. Miami is not the creme de la creme in football. It's all good though, Miami has a quality hockey program that shouldn't be taken lightly. Anything can happen on any given night. Quote
runaroundsioux Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Wasn't it a Miami player who tweeted "Nothing here but six points" after landing in Grand Forks last year? How'd that work out? Quote
