I watched them tested by Penn State behind the woodshed during the friday game.

Hes not wrong, minny has played well against much better competition so far.

if they dive around abit tonight before stripes figure it out, they could run it up pretty good

I guess I am questioning if UMD and Penn State are as good as Brad thinks they are. Penn State was tested by something called American International College last night. And UMD lost so much from last year that I think they will struggle in the NCHC.

Any television available on this one other than NCHC TV?

I don't just want to see two wins this weekend. I want to see UND win two dominating blowouts.

[LakewoodSioux]

I have serious FOMO this weekend. Hope it's a great weekend for everyone attending.

 

3-1 good guys tonight.

[Oxbow6]

I'd say split is the most logical outcome this weekend. Too many young guys make too many mistakes tonight. 4-2 Minny.

UND rebounds nicely tomorrow night. 3-2.

I don't think that's too much of a stretch. 
UMD and Penn are a heck of a lot better than UAA and StL.

If the men in green keep their feet moving for 60 minutes each night, our odds of sweeping are pretty good.  If we have passengers and pylons, and fall for the retaliation penalties, even a split will be tough.  

That said, GO SIOUX!  Kick some rodent *as.

Coach Berry spitting venom about Lucia at the fan luncheon. He took it personally that Lucia was the 1st ever head coach to skip a UND fan luncheon.

Did Lucia have a Notre Dame fundraiser going on?

[darell1976]

Loser move by Rodent coach.  Doesn't surprise me.  He didn't want to answer any questions from Diana Beaton why he didn't vote for Jeffy Panzer for Hobey.

Something along the lines of(EMPHASIS ON THIS BEING A SUMMARY)...

My parents said if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.... BUT since I've been an assistant or head coach here we have never had an opposing coach so I was shocked to hear 'No' to Lowell Schweigert's invite to Don Lucia. When I was an assistant under Blais, even though he may not have wanted to he went to the UofM boosters luncheon and made Hak and myself come with. The reason is because despite us being very competitive on the ice, after the games we are respectful of each other because hockey is a small world. When I told the guys(UND team) about this in the locker room their eyes got really big. This is why we are so proud of how we conduct ourselves at UND and do things the right way.

At one point, he apologized because he was getting worked up. It definitely seemed like he took it as an affront to our program & I don't disagree. 

If someone that was there thinks I am not summarizing this well or missed something please interject but this is what I got out of it. My friend and I were blown away that he was basically savaging Lucia and not mincing words whatsoever. 

I wouldn't be surprised if there are some words spoken between those 2 this weekend no matter the outcome of the games.

Youg got it close to verbatim. 

BTW, was told that Lucia never has been at a fan luncheon. 

Lowell's story comparing Lucia's "no" to getting turned down for a movie date by the hottest girl in the Zeeland area when he was a senior was priceless.
