We have decades of tradition and NHL talent to recruit off of. We host the best games in the country. ....and YET...we resort to filling out our roster with second-rate transfer portal kids because we can't recruit. We are out-coached every game. We are fucking NORTH DAKOTA and should be forced to play ASU 3x5 to keep the win to single digits. What a joke. But according to some people here, it's all about the B1G and we need to resign ourselves to being a plucky little mid-major from now on. Seriously though, I agree with you. Post of the year candidate. 2 Quote

I've seen comments the last couple of years stating we cannot expect to land blue chip recruits anymore because kids want that "B1G experience". They imply our days as a blueblood program are essentially over. Even the implication pisses me off. Quote

Conference is a distant 3rd in OOC records so far this year. That could hurt our pairwise at the end of the season. As a conference we might not get our normal 4-6 teams in. Long story short, we need to start sweeping opponents, ideally in regulation, or we're going to have a stressful February and March. Quote

I’m sure if I dug around here for the next several hours that I could find a post or two saying exactly this, but I don’t think there is a grassroots movement here lobbying for UND to try to join the B1G Hockey Conference.

We made this into a big game and they won in front of a big crowd of opposing fans. Celebrate yes but to celebrate like you won some kind of championship just shows the difference for me in the programs. Yeah it is a destination game but at the end of the day it is just another non-con game and in the grand scheme of things nowhere near as big as Minnesota or even Quinnipiac who are likely to be teams who could be in the mix for a championship although in my opinion I don't think Q makes that type of run come March. Arizona State is celebrating like that because they think they proved something last night and it is a big thing for them, for UND it is a game they expect to win and should win. Honestly ASU celebrating like they did and putting so much into that game makes the UND performance all the more embarrassing in my mind. Quote

Yeah UND must not be a championship program anymore by the way we have celebrated recent meaningless non conference wins…. why would ASU not treat it as a big game? Why would we not? It’s a destination game so that makes it big. Beating a ranked team in their house is also big for any program. Stop trying to minimize what they did just because we lost! 1 Quote

The loss doesn’t bother me as much as how poorly this team has played so far. It concerns me for the rest of the season. It also doesn’t bother me one bit when the teams we play celebrate a win against us. If these HOF games don’t mean anything we might as well quit playing them! 2 Quote

That championship along with any good success in the playoffs close to that we’re all done with Hak recruits. Berry can’t recruit and it’s finally showing.
