2013-14 North Dakota Season thread
The season is now officially here with a 3-0 win over Manitoba, and a 2-0 win in the practice shootout. I like the new home look with the new green helmets and breezers.

Re: 2013-14 North Dakota Season thread
I wasn't able to watch the Sunday game live, so I watched some of it last night. All in all, they looked OK. Power play was not good, but that is to be expected with so many new faces and very little practice time. It's going to be a roller coaster year - 43% of last year's scoring gone and 8 freshman and 5 sophmores. Yikes.Believe it. Earn it. Raise it.Comment

I have been waiting for years for them to go back to the green helmets and pants.
Goal scoring is going to be an issue especially early. The biggest challenge is going to be the schedule. The conference is very balanced from top to bottom. There are no more 12 games a season against Tech, Alaska and Mankato.Comment

I think one question will be who show a real hunger to score. The kind who will fight through guys to score garbage goals.Originally posted by lord k View PostComment

Not really. UND has always struggled against them, but I would guess that they hold the lead in wins in total games.Originally posted by MavHockey14 View PostBelieve it. Earn it. Raise it.Comment

I'd agree with that sentiment. Just thought it was a little bit off to mention them with Tech and UAA.Originally posted by Siouxfaninseattle View PostAF 99

Re: 2013-14 North Dakota Season thread
They do in Mankato, that place was 1/3 green for Sioux games.
I'm going to miss those......
Also, I heard the tail end on the radio that the Rodents have agreed to play again, anyone have more info?Life's A Journey, Not A Destination......

They will play in 2016/17 - probably again the next year, alternating between sites and then 2 years off and then repeat. Contracts have not been signed yet so stand by.Originally posted by Wreckincrew View PostBelieve it. Earn it. Raise it.Comment

Re: 2013-14 North Dakota Season thread
I was maybe a bit harsh to lump them in with tech and Alaska, but most years Mankato was a 1 line team. They just never had the depth to overcome the traditional powers.Originally posted by MavHockey14 View PostComment

Re: 2013-14 North Dakota Season thread
So this peaked my interest in the all time series...
Totals since 1999-2000
Total: UND leads the series 29-11-7.
Regular Season Games in Grand Forks: UND leads 12-5-3 (1-4)
Regular Season Games in Mankato: UND leads 13-5-4
Playoff Games: UND leads 4-1 in two series played in Grand Forks
Fairly interesting numbers, and probably about what you'd expect. North Dakota has traditionally had better teams, of course, but Minnesota State also has been better against UND then Alaska and Tech.
I found it interesting Minnesota State has swept UND in Grand Forks. That's crazy.AF 99
