They are gonna play at the end of December. Yes, excited. We all know what the likely outcome is but it promotes ACHA and hockey in ND. I’ve thought for many years why hasn’t there been a concerted push for Minot State to mirror the likes of some their D2 counterparts. Not saying that’s what this is but it’s still a pretty big deal. Can’t wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought PW ranking/grading system was damn near objective but not so sure about that anymore. Good Lord. Yeah, Dave said that their SOS was at 36 - 'middle of the pack' and they have 20 wins... #32. AIC 1-0-1 $46. UST 1-1-0 #11. Michigan Tech 0-2-0 #16. UNO 1-1-0 #29. Nmu 1-1-0 #49. Rpi 1-0-1 #8. Penn state 0-2-0 #51. Ak-Ank 4-0-0 #14. ND 1-1-0 #3. DU 1-1-0 #51. Ak-Ank 2-0-0 #41. Az state 2-0-0 #58. LIU 3-1-0 #41. Az state 2-0-0 So, basically, against anyone in the top 20 they are 3-8. Anyone in the bottom 21, they are 15-2-0. Ranked number 12, and I am at a loss. I know the math will check out, but feel that there ranking and probable slot in the NCAA's is not deserving. That's just me, not the expert, just an opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to understand their #12 PWR ranking with that schedule and those results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams that play significantly tougher schedules with 17, 18, 19 wins would, I feel, have a legit reason to wonder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 The Gophers practicing in Rochester this weekend is a good idea for the Gophers and a good opportunity for Rochester to show its appreciation for hockey. There should be a USHL franchise there, it's less than an hour from Shattuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
