Also, Manitoba instead of NTDP??? Also a step down I think having Augustana as exhibition is smart. We are limited to 35 games that count, with the USHHOF game as the extra over normal 34, and I wouldn’t replace any of our other games to squeeze them in. I agree with your preference for NTDP over Manitoba. 5 Quote

I just don’t see much, if any recruiting value. The U18 team is nearly all committed to schools by the time we typically play them. Most are committed prior to, or near the start of joining the U17 team. 2 Quote

Much more recruiting value in the current landscape than before. 2 Quote

It’s fun watching them play, many are going to be good NHL players in the future. NTDP > Manitoba in a landslide. Guessing NTDP chose not to come here. Quote

Guessing NTDP chose not to come here. it may be fun watching them play, but it probably isnt real fun to play them...if you play them hard, and they get hurt, youre the bad guy; if you get beat by them, you feel like crap, and your fans are pissed; you blow them out of the barn, and you are the big mean school...tell me what the upside is to playing them? i mean, sometimes it is 16/ 17 year olds playing against 24/25 year olds 1 Quote
Sweethockey Posted April 24 Posted April 24 Questions about Midco. Are they televising home games 2024-25 season? When does their contract expire? Quote

Looking at our schedule early, we could definitely be behind the eight ball after the first month and a half of the season. Maybe a good thing the HOF game isn't a destination game. Didnt they move the Fargo regional to North Wood? Quote

The skill is super fun to watch…ask anyone on the hockey world and it’s a no brainer tbh. Quote

We'll see how we measure up against some quality Eastern teams right away with Prov, BU, and Cornell. Would immensely help out the PWR if we can get a winning record out of those 5 games. Come Dec 1st, the boys will be at 11 and 4. Glass aways 1/2 full............. or in this case .7333 full ! 1 Quote

You are correct also - losing to teams we should have beaten cost us a close regional and got us a first round game with Michigan. Don't know why we lose focus every year. Quote

I may be in the minority on that but I like a variety of non-conference teams. I'd like to see BC or some other big-name Big 10 teams like Wisconsin. But I think a year off from UMN makes the years we play them even more fun. agreed....maybe 4 less conf games and 4 more non conference games against Notre Dame or bc bu Maine, Alaska? 1 Quote
