    Ralph Engelstad Arena will install in the offseason a new center-hung video board that it says will be the largest in college hockey.

    If size matters, Northeastern just installed this 51-foot monster: https://nuhuskies.com/news/2019/1/3/...x?path=general

      How does Shaw still have his job? This power play is absolutely terrible.

        Everything is terrible. Lucky this team wins 3 more games this year. SCSU is head and shoulders better than the effing Hawks. Sad times in Grand Forks

          UND took SCSU behind the woodshed tonight to the tune of 5-1. Did not see that coming and if anyone did they are a liar.

            It’s a strange team. Capable of playing up or down to any level of competition.
            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

              No way did I expect what they did tonight. A repeat next weekend would be nice.
              Believe it. Earn it. Raise it.

                With Western Michigan just getting done sweeping them they will be loaded for bear. A split would be acceptable but a sweep would be unbelievable

                  Zane McIntyre called up to the Boston Bruins with Tuukka Rask out. He's won his last eight starts in Providence.

                    Helps when we have 9 forwards and stomach flu going through the team. We played badly.. UND capitalized.

                            Upside potential: #20 North Dakota

                            A stretch of tough competition provides PWR opportunities for #20 North Dakota. After the Fighting Hawks earned a much needed split against #1 St Cloud St last weekend, they are now at the bottom of a PWR hill going into a pair of games at #6 Denver this weekend. By the current rankings, UND “should” lose those road games at a ranked opponent, so any success will push the Hawks upward, while failure won’t result in much of a fall (though UND can’t afford to squander such an opportunity to climb at this point).

                            A pair of wins would most likely shoot UND into the #12-#16 range, with a break into the single digits unlikely, but mathematically possible. A split would most likely result in a modest climb to the #16-#19 range. Going into games you’re expected to lose results in very little downside risk, as even getting swept would likely leave the Hawks in the #19-#22 range.

                              22 wins. That's the target by the time the Frozen Faceoff is completed. If on selection Sunday we have 22 wins, we'll be in. Might even happen with 21, depending upon how the conference tournaments go around the country. Two wins in the first round of the playoffs and maybe one in the Frozen Faceoff means somehow we have to get to 19 wins (six more) over these last 10 regular season games.

                                Colton Poolman is still in Grand Forks. He didn't even travel to Denver.
