Whatever happens, I just want to see an energetic and hungry team on Thursday.

Not a tired, sluggish team that can't get pucks to the net.

Just compete at a high level and I think we'll do just fine.

Absolutely, this team has all the talent and pieces to do this.

We haven't had any NCAA tourney luck against universities in the last decade, but we are undefeated against colleges, so look out Merrimack!

Are you defining “college” as a school that does not offer graduate degrees?

UND has the region it wanted, with the teams it wanted, with a mostly healthy roster; plus had a flu bug that came & passed at exactly the right time & a transfer in Young who is intimately aware of Merrimack's strengths & weaknesses. It's as though the Universe is laying everything out on a silver platter for the team to have great success. Time to write a new script & turn the corner for #9.

Freshman Jan Spunar has gotten the bulk of the work in net, and has been really good at times, and not great other times.

While I admit he certainly didn't play his best in the NCHC semifinal game...that's an odd comment for the NCHC Goalie of the Year.

“We’re excited,” Merrimack coach Scott Borek said. “We’re playing one of the best teams in the country. We’re playing in their home rink, essentially. You’re guaranteed a great atmosphere. It should be a great experience for our players and our program.”

Weird quote there too. 
People realize that this rink is in another state, right? 
And it's in a rink that UND has never played in?  That is over four hours away from their actual home rink?
