Merry Christmas from Goon's World


I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, and thanks for reading. Recently, Goon's World went over seven million page views. So thank you to all the folks who clicked the link and read over the years. Recently, I bought a new lens for my camera, so you will see an improvement in the photos on the blog. You can check out my first photos with the new lens from the first game of the Omaha-UND series. 

I usually take pictures on the Friday night of a home series. You can look at those by clicking the pages listed above. 

What a difference a year makes. Since November first, UND is 10-1-0 in its last 11 games and 14-4-0 (.777) overall. Last year at this time, the UND hockey team was 11-7-1 (.605) and had already been swept twice in the first 19 games (Denver and Cornell). Yes, the schedule gets harder in the second half of the season, but I don't think anyone expected UND to be in first place in the NCHC standings after 10 games. 

I look forward to more coverage of the UND hockey team. You can also see my work on Inside Hockey. Here's hoping that the UND hockey team makes a run in the second half of the season and goes deep into the NCAA playoffs.  

It will be interesting to see how Jake Livanavage and Abram Wiebe do in the Spengler Cup during the holiday break.  

 

Good luck to the two UND Hockey players, EJ Emery and Will Zellers, and goalie recruit Caleb Heil for making the USA U-20 WJC hockey team.      

Finally, good luck to Keaton Verhoeff and Cole Reschny, and 2026-27 commit, Ethan Mackenzie, for making the Canadian U-20 WJC team.   Here's hoping that Team Canada and Team USA play in the World Junior Championship finals. Yes, that's four current and two future UND players in the 2026 World Junior Championship.
