Can we hang a banner for this?  

We were probably the best team in 2020.  Cornell would have something to say about that.  According the the people doing the polls we were not.

An no he has not build a championship team.  He had a championship team handed to him.  Unless we are talking Conference championships (who cares)

The is is so correct

All my post illustrated is that Berry can, and has, built multiple championship level teams.  But anything can happen once the players hit the ice.
Like if Michigan doesn't win the title this year...they certainly built a championship team, but they may not win it.

Either way, no worries.  If you want him fired for failing to win a title when COVID killed the postseason...or if you want him fired for not winning a 5OT regional final game...or if you want him fired while his team is currently leading the toughest league and in position for making the postseason again...then so be it. 

Maybe having a bunch of freshmen in important roles would have something to do with not winning a title?

At this point the fire Berry discussion is way premature. And to add a little something to think about - this is a team with 14 new players (no, not all freshman) and you don't turn over half the team and perform at the level we've seen the last two years. And I have to speculate that there were probably at least a couple seniors that wanted to come back and were told thanks but no. Pure speculation on my part! And I expected that this would be a challenging year due to all the new faces but that if in fact Berry thought it was best for the team in the long run since not retaining seniors would not push back any recruits, it would work out better in the long run. Or maybe it's a push since not all the portal players he brought in are fifth year seniors.

Please which ones we beat out Michigan. Minnesota the Boston’s 

Why aren’t you comparing to Duluth in this aspect?  After all, none of those teams have Nattys since we won ours.  Perunovich wasn’t drafted coming into Duluth, and their best recruit this year, Dominic James, wasn’t highly sought after.  The list goes on and on.

This is such a dumb argument. You can absolutely have the opinion that Bubbs should be fired, but it's 1) not happening any time soon and 2) not founded in anything but being butthurt about a team that is currently leading the NCHC.

There is a reason he needs to self medicate and try to expect perfection from others when he can’t even complete a full sentence!

Ok, so, we have qualifiers now... Cool. How about Perron?

Sorry, you were responding to a comment about winning "major recruiting battles" against other "blue bloods", and I presumed that was the context of your response. 

So it was pretty concerning if Jason Blake's son was the second person that came to mind when discussing winning major recruiting battles.

Perron's a great recruit no doubt, but he always wanted to be at UND, so not sure how much of a battle it was to get him to UND either.

A lot of people will tell you that winning the NCHC is more of an accomplishment than winning a natty.  Imo winning a natty is about havig a good team but you gotta get hot at tournament time.  In 2016 we got red hot at NCAA time.  Winning the NCHC is about consistency.

Not a single person with a functioning brain will say this.
