This is why I hate the portal. The non-elite teams will be harvested constantly in their fanbase will be disjointed and disconnected.

Yeah, it's like UND men's basketball, kind of hard to be totally invested when every time you develop and have good talent they take off for greener pastures.

8 of these are SR or GR.  So, it isn't as bad as it looks from a portal standpoint.

Frank Mazzocco retiring, I grew up watching him calling Gopher games before I switched to UND. One of the better ones to call hockey games.

Costantini could be getting some big minutes next season for WMU, could really see his numbers improve greatly.
He's one player that I wish would have stuck it out here...I think he could have contributed this year at UND, for sure.

WMU loses 7 of their top 9 scorers from this year's team...only Bump and Costantini are scheduled to return.
Although it seems like they've been in that same position the last few years and always seem to get some players to step up offensively.

The rosters of UNO and WMU will look very different next season...both of them losing a lot.

Seems low, but I think that was what Bergeron was making.

Miami, SCSU and WMU have about 2/3rd of the average NCHC program budget.  They are more aligned with CCHA programs.

When did UMass join the CCHA?

Opps sorry..  I added then to the list because of the recent change to the MAC copy and paste from Bowling Green. 

I was trying show a couple of points:

1) How far behind several schools are on funding within the NCHC.  And could this drive change.

2) St. Clouds comparison the Minnesota St.

3) I like St. Thomas it will be interesting to see what the new arena does.

4) And I am interested in see Lindenwood and Augie numbers in the future.

Meh, doesn't matter.  The real question is who is a nicer guy?

Pointless response. It does matter because I am curious what the answer is.

And I am more curious as to who is nicer.  Clearly you are not nicer than Brad Berry.

scpa was the nicest poster 7 or 8 years ago.   Problem is, he hasn't even been pleasant since then.
