I know, I couldn’t believe I was that bored I sat through 60 minutes of listening to Gopher hockey talk but I will listen at least once more just to hear what the GPL hosts and Schloss have to say about the upcoming series. 1 Quote

Good on them for inviting the opposing team’s beat writer more than once. I won’t miss an opportunity to hear schloss talk about our team and a big upcoming series. 1 Quote

Maybe the same thing with Smilanic (more playing time on the top 6 / PP at Wisconsin than at QU)? I still think Perets/QU defense is overrated. In four games vs Western teams last season (UND, ASU, St Cloud, Michigan), his save percentage was .862 and GAA of 3.47. Yeah, all those shutouts against teams in the bottom third of Pairwise pad the stats, but ... I guess we shall see in two weeks if I'm right. They dominated us in the shots department when we played out there last year. I think we will struggle to score on them next weekend but I’ll be happy if we split again since they will likely be a top-10 team all year Quote

Very true. They will learn at least a couple of things: First, the time and space will diminish considerably (though HC had a good forecheck). Second, they will pay a price for loose play, both in their defensive zone and in the O zone, where passes that might have worked in high school or USHL could lead to an odd man rush the other way. 1 Quote
brianvf Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 Quote CBS Sports announced its NCHC broadcast schedule for this season Tuesday morning. UND will have three games on CBS — at Miami (Friday, Jan. 27), at Denver (Friday, Feb. 10) and home against St. Cloud State (Friday, Feb. 17). Those games will be called by Alex Heinert and Dave Starman. Heinert will likely miss five of Midco's home broadcasts this season to call CBS games. Jody Norstedt, who used to work at WDAZ-TV, will fill in for him. Quote
brianvf Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/ryan-sidorski-is-unds-wall-street-bound-defenseman Quote "I'm definitely grateful for the opportunity there under (coaches) Rick Bennett and John Ronan," Sidorski said. "I learned a lot about myself as a human being and a hockey player. I got to grow a lot in both aspects. I'll forever love Union. "Here, it's a different level at North Dakota. The facilities are not even a comparison. There are different coaching styles. I think Bubs (Brad Berry) runs a very tight ship here. From what I've gathered, everyone wants to get better here. Everyone is working toward a common goal. There's a good culture here and a good, tight group of guys." 1 Quote
brianvf Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 Hopefully the boys can get out of Mariucci with a split (or better). And then the destination game against ASU, which hopefully goes better than last year against PSU. PSU had a poor season last year after they beat us, and I feel the same could very well happen with ASU. So hopefully the team can take care of business in Vegas to help boost the PWR. ASU just split with Colgate and has CC this weekend. Quote
brianvf Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 UND to host Providence in the HoF game in 2024 at REA: https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/und-to-host-providence-in-future-u-s-hockey-hall-of-fame-game-destination-games Quote The Fighting Hawks will host the Friars in the 2024 U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game in Ralph Engelstad Arena. With that, UND's nonconference schedules the next two seasons are nearly complete. In 2023-24, UND will open with the Ice Breaker Tournament against Army and Wisconsin in Ralph Engelstad Arena. UND's other home series are against Minnesota, Bemidji State, Minnesota State-Mankato and Alaska (Fairbanks). It will play on the road at Boston University. In 2024-25, in addition to the Providence game, UND will host Boston University in a home series, play at Minnesota State-Mankato and Cornell, and take on Bemidji State in a home-and-away series. UND still has one more series left to book for 2024-25. Considering it's already playing five road nonconference games, it will almost surely wind up being a two-game home series. Quote
