    Yeah, according to USCHO, Notre Dame effectively started up in '68-69, and didn't field a program in '83-84 as they transitioned back to "independent" status. http://www.uscho.com/stats/history/n...key/2015-2016/
    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.

            They must be using the verb form of "fable", to tell fictitious tales, because I haven't seen a lot of great hockey out of that group.

                It is certainly a very BIG-centric piece. I love the "fact" that the B10 is and innovator because they experimented with an alternative overtime format last year. Of course, the article fails to acknowledge that the B10 was not the only hockey conference that experimented with non-traditional ways to break a tie. Is this website a student run site at Penn St? There were some decent facts, but the article also had a number of factual issues.

                  I'm not sure if that article was written in 2013 and copied and pasted for that post or not...because it completely ignores everything that has made the B7G Hockey Conference a one bid league

                    I was just thinking how a powerful league like the Big Ten could probably push the NCAA around, instead of having them dictate things like names, mascots, and such. You guys might be able to recruit enough old Canadians to win at hockey, but you will never win a championship in the top NCAA division in any other sport, ever.

                        So D1 isn't the top NCAA division for hockey? Man, good thing the Big Ten teams play D1 then. Just think how badly they'd get crushed if they played in whatever the top NCAA division is.

                            You are correct. I apologize to Happy for misreading what he said. UND likely won't win a national championship in any other sport and if UND's successes and failures are ultimately what completes Happy's life, who am I to try stopping him?

                              sure, just like I think the Vikings and the Timber Wolves will. They won 6 in my Father's lifetime, and he is still living.
