scpa0305 Posted April 12 Posted April 12 Would we have played BC? I don’t think we would have fared too well. 1 Quote

I think it is safe to say UND would’ve received another patented postseason beat down from BC. Either way, getting out of the regional would’ve only delayed the Boo Berry folk. 1 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted April 12 Posted April 12 congrats to Denver ......but has there ever been a bc bu title game? that would be bloody helll Quote

We just sputtered out the last few months. Killed a season that showed so much promise. No disagreement there. But, the regular season is there to create seeding for postseason play...whether it be conference tourney or national tourney. Winning a bunch of games in fall every year is fine, it helps us hopefully make the tournament and sometimes assists in winning a supremely overrated regular season conference title, but doesn't do anything for you in March or April. We aren't good at all based on our March results in almost a decade now. 1 Quote
Wilbur Posted April 12 Posted April 12 Denver and BC. Denver is going to need their goaltender to stay hot. Carle is a good coach, he will give his guys a puncher's chance. 1 Quote

neoflex Posted April 12 Posted April 12 BC is as good as advertised. DU will have their hands full, but if they can match their speed, they could pull it off. Quote
burd Posted April 12 Posted April 12 Even with more talent, I'm not convinced Berry would be comfortable coaching the tempo BC plays at. And Michigan was no slouch tonight either. BC's combination of speed, stick skills, and quick decision making is just sick. It's hockey though; they might get beat. Quote

Here's what UND would have to do - maybe dump the endless UND Alum-coaching parade for a breath of fresh air and NOT just promote slaves to the fighting sioux nickname anchor that is killing this program? These kids come in playing for the college they signed up for but 90% of the fans pretend they're still playing for another team and a nickname that has been retired. GET OVER IT! There's an identity crisis that is strangling UND hockey right now and it has to stop. Hey fat old UND fans in the stands who still barely fit into your Sioux jerseys sitting like you just sh*t your pants watching your team blow another opportunity...want to get back to WINNING? THINK OF THE FUTURE! The SIoux name will always have a great place in HISTORY - but it is HISTORY. This program won't achieve their former greatness until they FREE themselves from the past and move FORWARD! Forget the past and embrace the future - it's the ONLY way UND hockey can reclaim their championship glory! Just my 2 cents... 2 7 Quote

Heck, the team already has one NCAA title win since the Sioux name was retired. 1 1 Quote

Hmmm what was their name in 2016? I don't recall a Sioux logo on their jerseys in Tampa. What's even crazier is the arena announcer in Amalie Arena called them the Fighting Hawks. But hey it's the fans fault, "identity crisis" 3 Quote
