Bigten hockey conf has been around like 2 - 3 years so I believe 23 just doesn't compute... You are missing something. As soon as you apply thought and logic to a question or issue, the parameters suddenly change. It's Classic DaveK! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could've challenged the Big Ten bylaw. Heck, they could've left the Big Ten. Sure, not practical, but possible, so choices. They chose to fall in line with the BTHC which means that was their best choice in their minds. They made the choice best for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ray77 Posted January 20, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2017 8 hours ago, DaveK said: Last year I would have said the UND Fighting Hawks were scary good. There has not been a team called Fighting Sioux since the 2010-11 season. North Dakota hockey history DaveK logic 101: The Fighting Sioux have 7 National Championships and the Fighting Hawks have 1. How could you say they have 8, when the Fighting Hawks didn't exist for the first 7, and the Fighting Sioux were gone for the last one. The Big10 has 23 National Championships to their name. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually surprised he has admitted UND has 8 National Championships since in his mind, they are literally a brand new team because they changed nicknames. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said, I would much rather see the Gophers face Western Michigan than the majority of those other teams. That is a team that, on paper, the Gophers should have no problem with 9 times out of 10. The thing I don't like is the concept of putting the Gophers in the same regional as Penn State. Makes it look like an intentional effort to avoid having multiple Big Ten teams in the Frozen Four. Yeah, that or, you know, following correct seeding? Yikes, buddy. You are just siphoning credibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cberkas Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 I'd figure The Only Colors would have came up with more then 3 replacements for Anastos. The guy who's name has come up the most isn't even on the list. http://www.theonlycolors.com/2017/1/18/14316020/finding-potential-replacements-for-tom-anastos-michigan-state-hockey http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/sports/columnists/graham-couch/2017/01/19/michigan-state-hockey-couch-column/96774506/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godsmack Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 15 hours ago, DaveK said: That was the first time a 4 seed beat a 1 seed but let's not try to pretend it was the only time. As a matter of fact, in each and every one of the last 11 years there has been a 1 seed defeated by a 4 seed. That Holy Cross game was a sign of the times that we had reached a point where the pool of quality teams in college hockey runs much deeper than in previous eras. DaveK has a good point. Not to mention several near-misses of 4 seeds knocking off 1 seeds. There's a lot more parity in hockey than, say, college basketball and to me, that's a good thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are old guard at UND, but it's good to see more newer faces in the thick of things. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
