"i didn't hear anyone say this but the ice was terrible. it was sticky and the puck kept jumping over Potluny's stick. I might be a homer but, I'm gonna say it.......I'd rather lose to Holy Cross than the Sioux!"

Sorry dagies, It was too good to leave out.

Funny, I'm pretty sure I've heard people using the same excuse about the ice in Milwaukee... just saying...

Yep, isn't that the truth, they haven't played anyone in that tourney since BU beat them in the 1990's, notice since then they have had a bunch of weak sisters and also rans that the goofers propaganda machine had tried to pump up as being a legitimate team or a possible tourney team.

Here are the last six opponents the Gophs have defeated in the Holiday Classic championship game:

2005 - UMass-Lowell

2004 - Northern Michigan

2003 - New Hampshire

2002 - Boston College

2001 - Providence

2000 - Lake Superior State

Some mediocre teams, but the program has done a pretty good job of inviting a quality team that produces an entertaining championship game. I really like our holiday tourney... we get the chance to see some different teams, which is always nice.

I'm drawing a blank as to whether or not UND hosts a tournament at some point during the year, anyone care to enlighten me?

UND hosted the Subway Holiday Classic in 02-03 and 03-04. It wasn't held last season because of the World Junior Championships being at the Ralph. It wasn't held this season, either. I haven't heard of any plans to revive it.
