Hopefully there will be a luncheon. One would assume there will be, seeing how it's tech's only series in December. The following statement will be repeated many times in the coming weeks; so sad UMD and Tech won't be playing for a while. For me personally it's one of the toughest parts of realignment. Lucky for me though I'm sure we will attend one tech home series per year anyway.
I'd have to agree. Going to be key for both teams. If UMD could get a split there that would be huge. UMD has had the better end of this rivalry in the last 7 or 8 years (only lost three games since 2009 (IRRC).
Same. tLoon was the best, didn't know he made it out to Houghton! That's pretty awesome. tLoon is awaiting someone to pick up the torch and do it again
This is why I hope they have it. We'll be up late Thursday so we would love to attend the luncheon for this.I hope so, too. The luncheons are always fun. And the last one, soh and I even met tMel, thanks to huskyfan. Couldn't persuade him to start his freshman goalie, though. His quote, "What, feed him to the wolves? Hah! No way." (referring to the Gophers, who they played that weekend).
I'm bummed that they won't continue as a non-conference series. I assumed it would be one we would have each year but apparently UMD's schedule is too full from in-state rivalries (which doesn't make a ton of sense to me since it's only two series). It is one of the closest for UMD (3rd closest) and second closest for Tech, makes sense and saves each team on travel.
Actually, citing the ruling from Pearson v State of Michigan circa 2012, any discussion of a series between MTU and UMD technically falls under the jurisdiction of the common law term "series thread". As such all rules shall hold in said discussion.
What makes a king out of a slave? What makes the flag on the mast to wave? What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder? What makes the dawn come up like thunder? What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the "ape" in apricot? What makes Ponies appear on the Alaskan frontier? What have they got that I ain't got?
I have to think if it's a dead heat between Kero and Wintjes, Wintjes would get preference. Kero is a freshman and is also not likely to go anywhere else. As long as Wintjes looks good in practice, I think he'll be the #2. I would bet Kero doesn't mind waiting until next year to play. The Kero boys are at Tech as much for an education as to play hockey. They're both really smart kids.
