Mike Check:
I guess some might need to rescind their predictions/statements that North Dakota is going to is going to finish seventh in the WCHA. — Eric, Grand Forks, N.D.

Nice wins this past weekend for the Fighting Sioux. Of course, they are just three weeks removed from scoring a total of two goals in consecutive losses to the 11th-place team in the CCHA (Michigan State) and the last place team in the WCHA (Michigan Tech). Just something to bear in mind.

  1. Wow, how do you predict a team to finish 7th in the WCHA, especially a team with more then a few draft picks.... I mean doesn't it mean when you are drafted that you have showed some kind talent in the past, but mainly in the future?

    I guess according to some "Hockey Experts errr.. I mean Hockey Writers, who should just stop writing about Hockey." that means you'll finish in 7th... Saweet

  2. I might know who wrote that letter to the INCH boys. They are a joke. UND would have to probably finish in the top four nationally (go to the frozen four) to get any love from INCH this year.

  3. You guys have to stop harping on the picks. It's just not a big deal. Really, it's not.

    A LOT of people made wrong predictions. They aren't guarantees. Jeez. Come on, Goon, you've got plenty of other content. Like writing about firing Donn!
