Exactly, no way Michigan or BU get to the Frozen Four.

Boston University should be good again next year, especially with Yegorov, Hutson, & Eiserman presumably back & Boisvert coming in. Some solid recruits as well, plus the likely possibility of them adding CHLers too.

Michigan on paper looks pretty bad right now, but they're recruiting several high end CHLers to come in for 2025-26. If they can get any or a few of Gavin McKenna, Porter Martone, Ryan Roobroeck, Jack Ivankovic, Henry Mews, Jake O'Brien, as well as other high end Dub & Q guys, they're going to win games on pure talent. Their issue comes down to reliable goaltending & depth.

Yeah, I'm all in favor of dumping the Bemidji games for someone else.  Their style of counterpunching does not lead to a lot of exciting play and there's no upside in the pairwise even if you win.

Yup, agree, drop Bemidji as there’s nothing to gain in the Pairwise if you beat them and everything to lose if you lose to them.  This season was a Pairwise ball buster for UND with the loss and a tie.  UND must be the Super Bowl for Bemidji cus they sure play us tough (UND just 6 wins in last dozen games vs them).

New program mentality: we’re scared of Bemidji State but expect to win natties.

Not scared of them, just don’t see any benefit to playing them every fricken year.  Play them once every two or three years max.

It didn’t used to be a problem. We could just get back to mopping the floor with them

I heard Augustana is willing to pay UND to come to Grand Forks for this exhibition game because they had so much fun the first go around.

Please share the name of the dispensary where you are getting those edibles. 

No way a first year coach wins a national title at UND

They will play both Augustana and the ritual of a home and away with the Beavers
