Welcome
Back in a tie in the NCHC with SCSU

So I guess I got that right in my NCHC snapshot post this evening.

Dam they looked good tonight especially against a really good DU team. A Siouxweep would be icing on the cake

That is a huge sweep over Denver. Best weekend of puck I’ve seen all season from the boys

Sioux sweep the Bulldogs of UMD to right the ship after last weekends losses to CC. Still atop the NCHC standings

With two points tonight, Zach Parise has now scored the most points in the NHL by a UND player with 884!

GRAND FORKS, N.D. - For the fourth time in the last five seasons, North Dakota hoisted the Penrose Cup as NCHC regular-season champions on Saturday night. The Fighting Hawks completed a sweep of Western Michigan with a 3-0 shutout at Ralph Engelstad Arena to move seven points clear (49 points) of second-place Denver (42) with only two conference games (six points) remaining. UND earned the Penrose Cup for the sixth time in NCHC history (11 years), including winning its fifth outright NCHC regular-season title.

Omaha played like their season is in the line last night and out worked the Sioux in their 3-2 win. Sioux stay at number 3 in the Pairwise but need a win tonight to stay there

Sioux get swept by a desperate Omaha team. Not good. Team not exactly going into post season on a roll

And the Sioux move on after dismantling Miami 5-1 and 7-1

7 of 390 players to reach 1000 NHL games are UND hockey alumni.

4 of 62 USA-born are UND hockey alumni.

It’s been a great ride to be a fan of UND hockey. Who's next? My guess would be Brock Nelson

Omaha was the better team today without a doubt. UND had no jump in their step to speak of. UND now 1-8 against CC and Omaha. Hopefully they get sent out east away from Sioux Falls where Omaha could end up now

WOW!!!! Absolutely awesome facility.

WOW!!!! Absolutely awesome facility.

If you are ever in Grand Forks take a tour. It’s even more incredible when you are there

Unfortunately my gut was right and UND goes down 4-3 to Michigan. Played a great first period and the last 3 minutes. No urgency in between. Coach Berry’s playoff record is not good

I agree DS. Tough to watch that third period.

I’ve barely been able to watch any games this season, mostly just 10-minute highlights for each game.

What’s been your assessment of Ludvig Persson this season? I get the impression that he’s been pretty good, but hasn’t been the game changer some goalies can be. The second goal he gave up is bothering me. Seemed like it was too dangerous of a developing situation to not cover it, and that deflection back at him could be anticipated as soon as he decided to flip that rebound.

What a ridiculously impressive facility….I knew it was nice, but that is beyond next level.

Yeah that first goal the puck should have been covered. He could see who was baring down on him. As far as his season goes he’s been okay. Nothing to write home about. Like most goalies he can look lights out then not so much. The defense took time to gel too since all new guys came in.
