Duluth is going to play uninspired for awhile until it matters and so will the other favorites to a lesser extent.


Our team paid the price last year for taking the early season easy. They’re not making that mistake this year.

Coming off their 2018 title

Duluth opened last season 8-1-1, including a sweep of Notre Dame in South Bend. Maybe a second straight title dampened their enthusiasm for the early going this time around, but I doubt it.

UMD and Denver have owned us *

Since Jackson arrived though we are 5-1 against UM in games that matter most (3 CCHA title games all wins and a 2-1 record in NCAA games, all in heart-stopping action) and beat MSU to secure that first FF. We don't need to wait around for UMD and DU to fall on lean times. We just need to beat them in the NCAAs the next time we get the chance.
