Its like guys going to the NAHL or playing d3...embarrassing...recognize it and embrace it. 

I guess the world needs ditch diggers too, eh Danny?

And...a fan base that wants to be compared to local schools that don't matter.  UND Hockey used to be in the same sentence as premier Big 10 Universities like Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan...big time East Coast like BU and BC...NCHC is no longer the place to go other than DU...wanna play Jan Brady teachers college?  MInnesota JV Duluth, get a non cnference against bemidji State technical college...joke..we are falling off the map and its unacceptable.

Respectively you’re a little off here…it’s been one down year. I do believe the Big10 will continue to pull forward. But the NCHC will always remain relevant.

I like you a on and respect you.  I see it falling big time.  Other than DU.  Its not about winning either...chippaz believe they will win wherever they go.  Its about the experience and environment and opportunity

I’ve never been a Berry guy but I also am not sure if moving on from him is sure fire going to change anything. Smaby seems to be a popular pick around here but not really sure what makes him so special other than being a younger coach that’s an alum. Has been alright in the USHL. 

All the players looking to transfer may in part be NIL related but it sure seems more related to the culture or chemistry of the locker room. So I guess that is on Berry so maybe just a change there would help. Idk I’m talking in circles just want us to be back.

I don’t completely disagree with the last sentence…but UND will get back to relevance if they play more of a current style. What I witnessed last night was embarrassing…dumping pucks when the puck carrier had 20-30 ft. They may need some new/younger blood to play a more current game. Blue chips want to hold onto pucks and make plays, that’s not how we play currently. It’s an archaic way of playing hockey. 

while we can agree to disagree on some aspects.  We are aligned on this for sure.

if you don't live in ND, NDSU football is dogshit

No chippa ever thinks of NDSU or any other ND University? college?  whatever the !@#!$ secondary education programs go by.  Jamesotwn?  Mary? Minot?  90% of the country has never heard of them.  

The only institution that was ever on the map from our state was UND hockey

This is also similar to my experience in Key West last week. 

"Oh yeah we've heard of NDSU."

There's really no doubt NDSU football has much higher national profile than UND hockey.

Saw the other day Jon Gruden had a NDSU picture hanging on his hallway wall.

The Hains, Sendens, Jamerniks, and Kunzs of UND hockey can't be a thing moving forward.  DU and WMU have no one in their top 12 that can't be dynamic with the puck if asked to play that role.

Those two coming back for a 5th was such a waste of a roster space, had no impact on the team making the NCAAs which they still missed. Berry sucks at roster management.

How are we getting players that played on those teams?

Having watched WMU a few times this season chasing Constantini out of GF was a dumba$$ decision.

Nationally there is a big bias towards hoops and football.  NFL talent like Carson Wentz...how about NHL talent like Johnny f'ing Toews
