Official game pucks questions

Recommended Posts

Howdy folks,

I'm in the process of completing my WCHA pucks collection where I have official game pucks (or souvenir replicas) for each of the 12 member teams in the final year of the old era.  At the same time, I also want the last puck design for UND that proudly displayed the "Fighting Sioux" name and/or logo simply because of the history and tradition of that nickname.  I have two pucks that I think are the ones I want to make sure I hang onto, but I'm wondering if anyone can confirm this.  Please let me know.  Thanks.

The white one looks a little older, but the second one may have been used recently.  I know that design was used before the Fighting Sioux logo puck that I have, but I'm unsure if it was used after that during the nickname battle that had UND resuming use of "Fighting Sioux" after officially retiring it.  They guy I've been getting most of my information on NCAA game pucks lately isn't sure either: http://collegepucks.wix.com/college-puck-guide#!north-dakota/c1r2q

yea the first one was back in the good ol days. I can't for the life of me remember what season I got the second one sorry. They are both 100% game used tho as I snagged them myself. Sorry I can't recall the years. Wish I knew myself now actually. 

the second one was used in the early years of the new Ralph, and definitely in 2001-2002 as I have a couple game used ones myself

I have a couple of the top one, one says in green letters, WCHA, and the other one say Home of Economy on the back.

That makes sense.  I'm pretty sure mine is a souvenir copy that I bought through Sioux Shop's website several years ago, so it has the standard WCHA reverse instead of the ad I assume was on all the real game pucks.
