The Sicatoka Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 For a long run, from like 1997 to just recently UND's season was ended by: - loss to a team that eventually loses to NC - direct loss to eventual NC - no loss (NC) UND was no worse than two degrees from "Kevin Bacon" for quite a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After becoming a UND fan when I got to campus in 2003, we had home ice for the first round of the playoffs all through Hak's tenure, and at least the first year of Berry's. You know you can't be #1 every year, but for this program to ever be in the bottom half just seems so unacceptable to me. That being said, I'm cautiously optimistic about this week. This team has just looked different over the past few weeks and hopefully players are gelling at the right time, and goaltending is figuring it out. You never know what can happen at this time of year and we have certainly seen some crazy things. If I recall there was a year where Hak barely snuck the team in and won the NCAA regional as a 4 seed. I believe it was the year we lost to MN with like .8 sec left to go to the championship. At least they got beat up by Union. Humbling experiences can be a foundation for future success. Imagine we unconvincingly sweep a really bad team (e.g. Lindenwood) and then half of the people on this forum lambast the team/coaches. Let’s also imagine a few of their fans find their own way onto this forum, and read the things we say. Although disappointed with this season, I do remind myself regularly how great hockey at the Ralph has been these past 20 plus years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is hardly Not “doing much at the next level”… I’m assuming you mean for a first round pick? He definitely had a roll to play at the next level and he played it very well. Perhaps one of the toughest Sioux of all time. One of the best to watch for a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had been an All-Star talent, Foss/Schlossman would have talked about him more. Blais had no problem winning without him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Those playoff tickets already were included in season-ticket packages, so that also was a positive. Ticket prices for all seats were set at $15 to make the playoffs affordable for families and casual fans. A campus engagement group also is paying for 400 free student vouchers for each of the games. “We want to make our barn as full as possible,” Dowell said. “And hopefully as full as possible with our fans.” Some avid UNO fans are doing their best to keep those Baxter tickets away from invading North Dakota fans. They’ve been encouraging others on Twitter to buy up as many tickets as possible and then give them to friends who will cheer for the Mavs. Keeping the green out of the arena will be a daunting task. The Fighting Hawks lead the nation in attendance, averaging almost 11,400 per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
