If the Gophers do it, it’s juvenile and classless.

I hope those fans who have been very critical of Berry and his staff will now stop to realize that you don't usually take talented freshmen into the NCHC and win a lot of games.  Talent, alone, is not

I'm 100 percent against fighting just to fight.....stupid.  I'd rather watch a game without a fight 99 times out of 100.  When it turns into one team taking runs and the reffs doing nothing to prevent them from taking the runs then it's up to the players.

What would Commie do?? :)

There’s history between Michaud and Western. He had a great first round playoff series against the Broncos last March and there was a lot of back and forth chirping going on. Plus, he visited Western this summer when he was deciding where to transfer so there’s probably that element too.

Nowadays you can't afford to waste a roster spot on an enforcer. That's why they can get away with that crap, no consequences. Not that  I like fighting, but it did serve a purpose.

UND Captain describes Michaud,

  Quote

"He’s added a little bit of chippiness and competitiveness and some skill,.....We need guys who can get under players’ skin. I didn’t like playing against him when we played CC. I knew what kind of guy he was. He can get under guys’ skin, and it works, too."

Mike Prpich is on hold for you......line #2.

IMO he was one of the best enforcers UND has had when the players policed themselves. 

To your last point.....agree.

I do not think most of their fans even know he visited Western last spring. Being here at both games , they don’t seem informed about that stuff.

No, but I bet the players and coaches do.

I’m more talking about how the fans here react to him than the players. The fans here HATE him. I just had a guy sitting behind me trash him all game and say he has no business playing college hockey if he can’t take a hit.

Yah, I don’t get it. Westin’s one of the toughest players I’ve ever seen. He’s small, takes a lot of hits, but his motor never stops running.

You just knew......as soon as it got to 3-0 they take a run at Michaud.....then they actually played hockey for a while until their push didn't get them back in the game and before you know it its 5-1 and then we've got head locks and guys getting run from behind....

Spot on

CHN PWR shows UND #1 as well.
Could still change, as a couple games still to finish.

Expand  

It’s real close. 

Cornell lost their first game of the season tonight so that dropped them to third.  

UND and Mankato are extremely close in RPI which is usually the deciding factor in pairwise comparisons (unless one team has a two game or larger advantage in head to head).   A few games not involving either team or even a top 10 team could decide who is 1.

I just don't remember that ever preventing teams from taking runs at our skill players. It just resulted in both teams having players in the box or locker room afterwards.

Wow! Four times we've scored seven or more in a game and we have yet to see Huntsville.

This season reminds me of the 2003-04 year. Hopefully, the ending will be better!

Expand  

RIGHT!  As @ringneck28 can attest to, we like mimosas and happy endings around these parts.

Yet we have morons chanting “who’s he?he sucks sh**  every home game. Shows lack of class and intelligence from their students and ours. Makes no sense that students can’t come up with anything better than that. 

Expand  

It's a chant as we all know that's been taking place for as long as I can remember, I like it.

It extended UND's unbeaten streak to 13 games and put the team at 14-1-2 overall -- the program's best mark at Christmas break since it went 16-1-1 in 2002, Zach Parise's freshman season.

Expand  

...and the rest of the story is then a flip switched as that team had a horrible second half.
