Some disagree with you. But thanks for your input.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
I'm not totally educated on the details, but MN won 2 titles pre-NCAA....something like that. Personally, I don't think they count. It's like pre-Super Bowl titles.

There we go. So it's 7. My bad.
The Minnesota Golden Gophers men's ice hockey team is the college ice hockey team at the Twin Cities campus of the University of Minnesota. They are members of the Big 10 Conference and compete in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I ice hockey. The Golden Gophers have won five NCAA national championships, in 1974, 1976, 1979, 2002 and 2003.[2] The team also shared the 1929 National Intercollegiate Athletic Association championship with Yale.[3] and captured the national Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) championship for amateur hockey in 1940.

At least we know who won pre-Super Bowl titles.
I think North Dakota won a couple of pre-NCAA titles too. Minnesota allegedly has 2. Michigan probably has a dozen. Wisconsin maybe a couple. Oh, and the eastern schools...BC and BU probably with a handful combined. Yale probably with a few.
Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
Hockey, like baseball, is really sketchy, with all the leagues and weird goings-on and such. I mean, when the Stanley Cup was basically a triple dog dare? Records are not going to be exactly accurate.

I guess i didn't realize that baseball and hockey compete for the Super Bowl.
Also, are the records for pro baseball and hockey unknown or inaccurate?

He hates me omahasioux1, ever since I poked fun of his having over 111,111 posts. lol I could care less if the guy ever likes me. In fact I hope he never does. The day he comes to like me I will feel I'm doing something wrong.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
With baseball and hockey, there were many leagues (esp baseball) so inaccurate or conflicting records would be the most common stats amongst the sport. For pro hockey, the Stanley Cup wayyyyyyyy back in the day was like a throwdown. One team would challenge another, and they'd have a series. That was it. You could challenge at any time. Totally messed up.
Edit: books like "The Game" and "The Code" and (IIRC) "The Battle Of Alberta" shed some light on the old old old games, and how it was. Fing crazy.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
I doubt all of what you said. Mostly because you are just winging it from off the top of your head and making lots of assumptions. Not saying you are wrong, just saying SOME evidence, ANY kind of evidence would help.
The one title UMn claims in 1940 came from winning a Tournament, not a poll. Not sure why you would think all those other schools won the AAU Natl Title? And Evidence?
I'm not saying they didn't, but I'd have to see some evidence of it. I've read somewhere that Minnesota won over half of the Natl Titles in the 1920s. Those were based on a Poll, so I don't give them a lot of credence, but they are better than nothing.
UMn was also the first team to be invited to represent the US at the Olympic Games in 1928. The other teams were Eveleth JC, Boston College I think, and Augsburg along with a 5th team I can't remember who it was though, Michigan wouldn't shock me.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
^^^^^^^^^^This is why you suck. FS23 has done so much research in the sport it's sick. Happened to accidentally meet him in 2008 F4 Denver, and he's got his knowledge together. I'd stop talking if I were you.

Thanks Brent. That was a unique encounter.
As for Dubbers, i just keep him/her on ignore. He/she has proven his/her inability to carry on a logical and sane conversation here...so best to just ignore such ramblings.

Apparently it's not Dubbers...that's mnstateofhockey...so he is now dubbers jr.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
Just asking for evidence. Sorry, I don't bow to anyone just because they declare themselves this or that.
And unlike you, I don't LIVE here. I have a life. So I'm sorry I am not aware of research FS23 may or may not have done. Elitist arsehole much? I've given FS23 credit for intelligent posts he's made, I'm willing to do that for ANYONE who posts something intelligent, even FTLT got props from me today.
Dude, honestly, if you ever want College hockey to grow and become anything more than the niche sport it is, fans like you need to give up thinking you are royalty of some kind.

Do I dare ask for details? I'm thinking I'd rather not know. So never mind.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
Actual Convo:
FS23: So, you guys here for hockey?
Me: yeah.
FS23: Heard of USCHO before?
Me: Yeah, I'm Brenthoven, this is Bakunin (editor's note: now retired), and [can't remember his poster name, but WI fan, know him and his wife personally at this point, good people]
FS23: Oh sh*.
I have a life. And I just prefer to make somewhat sensible posts.

Nice recovery edit. Your initial response was uncalled for. Good that you changed it.

Re: Big Ten Out of Conference is a joke
I was wondering if at least one person saw that or not? Wanted to leave it up, but my conscience was screaming at me to delete it. The fallible human side of me compromised and just toned down the edit.
