Pogo, Simo, and Olson are seniors. (Sorry Cam, you're a goalie.) 

Gardner (a junior) seems likely to be back as a senior (moreso than Gersich, who'd be the other choice). 

Personally don't think it should matter if a guy is leaving or staying the following season.

I think it's time to do something different with the Bemidji series. Either play them one game and Mankato the other or play Bemidji every other year and get other WCHA teams a chance to play UND.

Yeah, BSU is getting old...although it is fun when my friends are texting me and sending pics of the scoreboard, only to have Brock get a hat trick and shut them up:D

I agree.  I think you could have like a showcase.  Two NCHC teams and two WCHA teams.  Get Ferris or Lake State with Bemidji.  You could do it in Grand Forks or Fargo.  Two days, four games.  I bet you could get Denver or Omaha on board with that.

UND, UMD, BSU, MSUM. Rotate the host site through those four.

I hope the make homecoming the same weekend as the Minnesota series.  

On one hand, that would make for a ridiculously fun weekend jammed together with the football game. On the other, you can put HC on another weekend and have two really busy weekends in GF.

If you are going to do a showcase, do it with 4 teams from two different leagues and do it in places like Winnipeg. So 4 NCHC teams and 4 WCHA teams and have 4 games a day (Friday and Saturday). 

If UND want to play Bemidji every year then add in Mankato. One game in Bemidji (Friday) then in Mankato (Saturday). Then you. An get in two other WCHA team like Michigan Tech (Friday) then Northern Michigan (Saturday).

Homecoming has already been set for Oct 7.

I believe because of other events, they avoid putting it on a football/hockey doubleheader weekend.

:( damn I like when they have the double header like last year.  It's alot of fun to watch a football and hockey game in one day.

There is two guaranteed chances along with a possibility of a third so not a complete loss. One of them just won't be homecoming.
