I'm pretty sure 100% of the home games that are not broadcast by CBS Sports(2-3 per season) are on Midco. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 The last time UND has lost a first-round playoff series at home was 1996 (2-0 to Wisconsin). I certainly want to keep that streak alive. Before 2002, the last time UND was on the road for the first round was 1995 (2-0 sweep of St. Cloud). Pretty amazing level of consistency. Quote

I muted both games last weekend for long periods of time. This weekend I think I will just head up to the Ralph. Quote

Lol sometimes I think he should shut up. Less is more, sometimes. Personal preference, I just don’t like an analyst that talks as much as he does. Quote

I think Jake has improved a lot since he first started. I found myself a couple of times this season thinking that he made some really, really good observations about the game. 2 2 Quote
UNDBIZ Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 UND has won 2 Friday games since thanksgiving. Going to need to improve upon that this weekend. 1 Quote
Frozen4sioux Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Jake has done worlds better with Hienert than he did with the Fargo Failure on the booth. Alex is doing a great, I've been impressed and eaten crow on my initial assesment .Jake has a ton of hockey knowledge and I like to hear it, It compliments Heinerts less experience, (although he is doing very well and has invested alot into his development and it shows) sometimes Jake rambles too long but he knows the game and it comes through. In the past Jake couldnt salvage the utter idiocy being spewed out and he couldnt connect the pxp with actual hockey info. But now with Alex i think it works better. I like them both...... ....still not Sweeney tho...... #justsayin. 2 Quote

The Toby Kvalevog Charmin-soft goal to end the game on Friday night was especially painful. Of course, we both know what happened the following season! Quote

I love his goal calls, he brings energy that seems appropriate to the situation. Quote

It would be nice to see Alex and Jake in the booth for a lot of wins. Quote

The days of the 2 game total goal series are over. Those used to be either really dull if a team won handily the first night, or very interesting if it was close the second. Remember you could potentially be pulling your goalie late in the game when you were ahead in the game the second night. 1 Quote
