So just think of how much money Lucia's hatred of UND has cost Minnesota by not playing us every year up until now.  

Of course, remember Lucia's famous quote that their traditional rivals were Bemidji, St. Cloud, Mankato and Wisconsin?

I didn't know that, so thanks. I just got the email for their Pick-your-packs this morning and those are on sale July 20th. Doubt at those prices our games will sell out until single game tickets go on sale. 

Just another way of UND losing tickets away from home. We'll still be roaring louder at Mariucci than they will.

The price doesn't bother me.  Sioux fans will pay it.  Only the die hard Gopher fans will pay to see their team get their a$$'s handed to them on home ice.  It puts more Sioux fans in the building.

Looks like a generic rink. Any thoughts on us having the new logo on the rink or will we go with the interlocking ND (despite it being in the legacy collection)?

It'll be interesting to see how the hockey program implements the new logo. This will be a huge stance on their approach. The administration will push hard for the new logo to be there.

I could see it being North Dakota, like on the jerseys also.

I like that idea...methinks it will be the new logo.

OK, you can find a photo of the 2015-16 hockey cheer team here. You can see the interlocked "ND" at center ice.

 You can also (almost kinda) see it already says "North Dakota Hockey" already. I'd guess there'll be pressure for the new logo. 

Now, for today's amazing stat: In the picture is ... Leigh Jeanotte's granddaughter.

New logo needs to be at center ice.  The hockey team has the most national attention of any team.  UND is going to want to develop brand recognition.  The hockey team can be the best ones to help that.  Many of their games are broadcast nationally.  Having the logo at center ice is going to get the Fighting Hawks brand out there.

Like it or not New Logo will be at Center Ice.  Booing the Ice would be a new low.  Best way to get Fan's used to the logo is to force them to look at it for 2-1/2 hours twice a week a couple times a month.

Maybe they can compromise and put the new logo on the back tag of the penalty box attendant.

Yes, that's a good way to make people like something by forcing it down their throats. That's gonna make me hate it even more than I do now!!! 

GO SIOUX!!!

Unfortunately, UND and the Ralph aren't going to check with the Sioux Forever crowd before they decide to use the logo in any capacity for any sport.  Including hockey.  If you don't like the new name and logo, you may want to avoid going to any UND games for a very long time.

Hopefully the old interlocking ND but not sure what they will do. Really wouldn't mind North Dakota wrote out like on the jerseys either. Would rather go no logo at center ice than use the new one.

Oh yah, that's a great idea.  :silly:

So my thought is it'll be the interlocking ND for this season. It's still a logo until after this academic year right? Only way the new logo is on center ice is if Kennedy tells Jody that it has to be.

But I'll take a national championship and guaranteed blue chips for years to come over the best logo in sports.  

I like your thought process on this!

I've been a season ticket holder for hockey for the last 7 years and I'm going to continue going and support the team I'm just not going to support the name. I don't yell the Fighting Hawks name, like I've said before it honestly doesn't feel right, but I've never booed it

After taking the interlocking ND logo off the ice once... I don't think they'll ever put it back on.
