What's going on with 'hockey only'?  Are you referring to the fans?  The people on Siouxsports?  The Ledgies?

 

What going on with only 7 pages of gameday thread? Where did all the hockey fans go?

Thanks...I wasn't sure why as fans we needed to be exclusive to supporting either football or hockey.

There are way more hockey only fans than football only fans. I just wonder why the football forum is more active than the hockey one on a game day. I’m a fan of both. Been to multiple times more hockey games than football this last decade. Also both teams have deserved high scrutiny the last few years too.

I think they're still here.  They're definitely not on USCHO.;)

How many pages should the gameday thread be?  UND scored one lousy goal on Saturday so there really wasn't that much to talk about during the game.

Man, if you're getting your hockey info from The Facebook I feel bad for you.  That's kinda like buying your motor oil at Target.

Is the fighting sioux Facebook group still full of sycophants towards a player's mother? Felt sorry for her that she pursued adulation in a manner so embarassing for her son. With no account of my own my knowledge of it stemmed from here, which could have been exaggerated.

Yup is so creepy, players and their parents need to steer clear of those stalkers! Someone get them some suite tickets asap!

Paid a little visit to The Ledge yesterday.    Pretty crowded.   Fans with a dazed, desperate look, some moaning “I don’t deserve this” and “We used to be elite!”   There were some vacant spaces along the outside edge, suggesting some may have already jumped, though I was afraid to lean out and look for splat marks below.   It was pretty obvious that gf, who has been a full time resident since 5 years after Hak became HC,  and his business, Gfhockey Ledge Properties, are benefitting from the recent sweeps by CC and Omaha.   They must have rebuilt the elevators, because they were reportedly able to fill large areas of the Ledge this weekend in the time it takes to play one period of hockey. 
 

Not sure I’d want to go back up there if the boys lose to Miami this weekend.   Many of those up there now will be gone, and not because they took the “down” elevator.

It's the most embarrassing collection of cringeworthy trash ever assembled.

The constant desperation to be recognized or even acknowledged by a players mom is creepy as a congressman running a daycare.

The Sioux Facebook group members are infatuated with Gaber's mom.

Someone posted a picture with Gaber’s dad at a gas pump a couple weeks ago. So it’s hardly restricted to just his mom. Probably the whole family at this point.

I swear a few of them would skin him alive just to wear a Gaber suit so Mama would say hello.

It's sociopathic..... its a dateline NBC in the making.

No, she just started posting a couple of years ago on the page and it's just gotten to unhealthy levels of internet stalking because many are disgustingly desperate to make a fake connection to a player's mother.  It literally gives me shivers reading some stuff on there.

I think they run out of gas, they come out strong and fade at the end when it counts.

They won the Penrose and the Natty in 2016, so I am not buying that. Maybe the let-down after the high of winning the Penrose was bigger than we expected?

The 2016 team played poorly at the Frozen Faceoff in Minneapolis, but rolled from there.

The 1997 team suffered an embarrassing sweep at Denver that prevented them from winning the McNaughton Cup outright. We all know what happened after that.

The 2000 team went to 3 games vs. Denver in the first round and never lost a game after that.

I really hope they haven't screwed themselves out of being placed in Sioux Falls, because I am hoping to see them in person for all their NCAA games. Whatever happens, I will support this team throughout their journey.

Good takes on some past championship teams...I think the talent is there; not sure if they have enough grit to win 4 in a row when it counts.  After the last DU series I would have picked them to win it all but not so sure now.  All that being said, me and 7 UND alumni will be at the Frozen Four to hopefully cheer the boys on!  Sioux, Yeah Yeah!

That unpredictability is part of what makes college hockey so good, IMO.

All of the different line experiments hurt team chemistry. Not many seem to gel. 

Then again, Berry is roundly criticized for being inflexible on line combinations.  
 

It’s a culture thing.

Seems to this poster you are a fan of losing so you can play your bit.   But that is probably inaccurate, and you really are eager to discuss the game of hockey rather than just bad outcomes.   
 

We’re all UND fans, though, and just like seeing them win, regardless how we go about being a fan, so its all good.  
 

I guess I’m one of those people who is content being a mediocre fan and not a champion fan.

'...champion fan'  =  fair weather fan ???
