After the Gophers got a win and a tie vs. Duluth a couple of weeks ago, the Big Ten held a 1-0-1 record vs. the NCHC. With victories tonight by Michigan over Western Michigan and Notre Dame over Omaha, the Big Ten now has three victories and a tie vs. NCHC opponents while the NCHC is still trying to get that elusive 1st win over a Big Ten opponent this season.

DaveK must have been run out of siouxsports again.
Pressure will be on in Vegas. A loss to UND is going to be an absolute pairwise killer.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.

Re: Big Ten > NCHC
Ooof. Ouch. You’re right, complete superiority. Two weeks into preseason and it’s so obvious. Glad I live in Denver. They can beat us in the national championship but their fans have other hobbies than to razz UMD fans. You beat UMD in a preseason game and it’s the national championship. I remember the years when beating Minn was equivalent to a national championship for us (hint: that’s a sign your program is pathetic)I wanna go fast!

So a bit of a dent in the pairwise, but not a killer.

Originally posted by Stauber1 View PostUND looks pretty bad this year, but even if they luckbox one against Minnesota like they did against Mankato tonight, it still won't be too bad for the Gophers simply because the NCHC is an OK conference. It's not like losing a game to an Atlantic Hockey team where not only is the team you lose to bad, but their entire schedule is horrible too. At least UND will be propped up somewhat by games against teams like Western and St. Cloud and the Colorado schools.

We brave the cold for tailgates, our friends know not to ask about the game after a tough loss, we laugh, we cry, we BLEED hockey, specifically the maroon'n'gold. Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

The reason for the talent in the west? Because MN didn't rely on Canada.
