Tough to fill racks with a logo that won't sell.

Gee, it can’t possibly be the $4 a gallon gas, a more expensive grocery bill, or increased home cooling//upcoming heating costs affecting buying decisions, can it?

$15k people still paying about $2k a piece to go to one game against a crappy opponent

Don’t underestimate ASU hockey. They could be a good team lurking in the shadows.

We will. Represent!! The Legacy will always live on. Will recruiting get a little tougher? Maybe? But we have already had tougher recruiting battles. Win a championship and keep getting NHL draftees on the team and into the league and our recruiting will continue to improve.  Add marquis games like this second HOF game where 12-15,000 crazy UND fans sell out in Nashville… 
 

also those schools still have to complete for sports dominance with football. Especially at Penn State, ASU , Alabama (Bama hockey? Come on now…) where as hockey in GF is like all that matters in that town. It’s a big deal. You aren’t overshadowed in forks when you play on the hockey team. You are grand forks.

That’s true. Even with some larger donors, those bigger schools have so many large donors, alumni bases and endowments. But we will be fine. A championship will go a long way.

That is normally the case with "single game sweaters".  The Ralph e-mail advertisement said they were replicas, but that could be a semantic issue.  "Replicas" do not normally come in numbered sizes (46-56), but S,M,L, XL.  Single game sweaters are normally made by the same company, but indeed lighter weight and could be a different location than the authentics, that they were multiple times.  I ordered one because I like it, so we will see if they have the quote in the collar.  I could be wrong, so we will see.

You are incorrect. Replica jersey do in fact come in numbered sizes and sometimes have a fight strap on them but that doesnt make them the same as the on ice jerseys. If you look at the tag and it says "made in Indonesia" or other foreign country, it is in fact a replica. The on ice jerseys that the team wears will say "made in Canada" on the tag.

You are correct.  I just got confirmation from the Ralph that these are replicas and do not have the quote inside.  This is kind of strange, but understandable.  It will ramp up the price of the gamers, and they said there may be a few of the unused sweaters possibly for sale.  I know I have seen the one time gamers not being traditional weight, but lighter.  Just one example I have, I will reference the ones used in Maine to honor the coach passing were not authentic game weight. 

The ones you are referring to about Coach Walsh were in fact replica jerseys. There was no way to get on ice jerseys done as those jerseys were done last min and were screen printed numbers. It's kind of like the ones UND wore in 2003 to recognize our military services, they just took a bunch of off the rack replicas, sewed on numbers and military patches and used them in a game.

What is the state of the Penn State, ASU, Georgia and Alabama men’s basketball programs?

UND hockey will be just fine.

Welp, for those who kicked the tires but didn’t actually send me a direct message…

P.S.  You can still send me a message and we’ll chat about these and how you could possibly still get one.

What color green is that on the one on the left? Seems not quite kelly but could just be lighting. Also is there a reason 2 different heads were used? (Just curious)

I mean, if you are going to use five letter name on a jersey.....

Yeah I like this as an option too. I think they need to move away from the number in the circle on the front and this (or Nodak ) is the way to do it.

Black replica looks nice!

For the record, I have the white replica too. Unfortunately, the white “Nodak” replica doesn’t look as good as the white authentic. The green lettering and quality pops more on the authentic. 

I think this black replica looks really nice.

The left jersey from the 1982 set was a darker green.  The jersey on the right is patterned after the 1987 look, which used a different Indian head logo.
