    I took great pleasure seeing all the gopher fans turn anti-umd for the frozen four. You know you’ve got them defeated when they’ll cheer for their “rivals” rather than the home state team even in the proud state of hockey

Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

To be honest, it was kinda hard to argue against that. Although I would rather have the postseason success of UMD, SCSU has probably won more games than any team in college hockey over the past 6 or 7 years, and that has been pretty enjoyable.
      I'll give you this, it's been impressive to see the consistency from SCSU since the transition. UMD was put in the same boat, all we heard was "have fun being the doormat in your new conference". Top to bottom, each team has the resources and clout to turn their program around, and I think that parity makes our conference one of the most exciting around. It's also great to see 3 Minnesota teams in the top 10 while the Gophers sit next to AIU in the standings.

        1. I know a lot of Gophers fans that cheered for UMD during their first title winning season. Some vowed never again after that. No big deal is it?
        2. I'm willing to bet less than < 5% (1%?) of UMD, BSU, SCSU and MSUM fans cheered for MN in 2014 vs. Union or anytime ever but it's different if Gophers fans do the same?

        Same as with #1 - it's no big deal I wouldn't expect fans of those teams to cheer the Gophers it's part of the game and I don't begrudge them.

        I know there wasn't this much bro-hugging between WCHA fans before the realignment but have fun with it.

          St. Cloud has had some really good teams that just couldn't get over that postseason hump. I'd like to see St. Cloud finally have everything come together this postseason. Fun team to watch.

            I cheered for MN in 2014, but I get your point. I don't necessarily think that's a perfect equal though, as the rest of the teams in the state had YEARS of listening to tArrogance over and over again. That resentment I would guess makes it harder for those schools to cheer for UMTC than vise versa. Kind of like how as a Vikings fan I'll cheer for the Lions and Bears to do well if the Vikings aren't relevant, but Packer fans have successfully burned that bridge through years of general ego and d-baggery.

              Yeah, just like all those UMD fans cheering for the Gophers in their Frozen Four appearances. You're delusional.

                They've had a good run. My eyeball exam of the numbers dating back to when conference realignment occurred, the 2013-14 season (and including this season) show these wins:
                1. Mankato - 151
                2. DU - 141
                3. UND - 140
                Quinnipiac - 140
                5. Providence - 139
                6. SCSU - 135

                If you go back the seven years you indicated, back to when SCSU tied for the last regular season championship in the WCHA before realignment, the wins look like this:

                1. Mankato - 175
                2. Quinnipiac - 170
                3. UND - 162
                4. DU - 161
                5. SCSU - 160
                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.

                  Looking forward to seeing them at the West Regional in Fargo. Of course I’m looking forward to seeing UND there too. Ah never mind

                    Yep.....the chances of UND making the tournament was torpedoed by the Canisius series debacle but I still kept holding on to a sliver of hope the team would still find a way but then Scheel gets injured....

                    I’ll still watch but not going to be holding my breath for any miracles.

                      Lot to take in:

                      1. Never thought SCSU would be the chum. I thought CC most definitely.
                      2. I cheered for tUMD before they won their first. Then they acted like they've been there as much as the blue bloods. Horrible.
                      3. MN has owned their arrogance from day one. And we (and UND and MI and BC) have never strayed from that.
                      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                        The one positive if they don’t make it is I’ll get to find a seat since I have general admission tickets

                          Wanna play a round during the tourney? Pretty sure I'll be looking for something to do.

                            Unless BC, BU, UND, Wis, or MN go on a tournament post season run, its looking like all 5 will miss out on the big dance. Has that ever happened? BU was the only one to make it last season. Dig up some stats for us SJHovey.
