Broncos win 5-2 final!

Sweeeeeeeppp over UNO!

This team is playing very well right now, especially at home. Any time you can get a sweep especially in the NCHC is a win!

Why are we in the NCHC again? lol

Great weekend! I wonder if we'd be ranked #3 in the PairWise right now if we were in the WCHA.

Congrats Broncos. Some toothpaste up next weekend!

Can we not do this WCHA vs. NCHC thing every weekend?

Maybe, when someone concedes, we'll all drop it.

We are starting out great in the NCHC, which is good-the games in the New Year are always far more competitive. We need to make hay while the sun shines!

Good to see us take care of the league bottom feeders. It's more reassuring than tight games.

You all troll him every win. He literally never brings it up otherwise. The point is well taken. Let it go.

I love Bronco hockey. I have an opinion on one thing that is different than the majority. None of our opinions will make a difference regardless. I love it when we win no matter what league we are in, and have always hoped we are successful. I am perfectly happy if we never bring the issue up again. Frankly, it is not all that fun getting in a fight when it is you against 10 other people. Onward and forward.

I'll be there Saturday for the hockey/basketball double-header!!

And we'd be lucky to be in the Top 10 leading the WCHA.

Gooooooo Broncos!!!!

Leading the NCHC!!!!

Nothing wrong with beating the bottom feeders; otherwise you'd be a bottom feeder too.

Hard to believe people thought, including myself, with the amount of drop off in scoring we lost from last year, this team is in the top 5 in the nation in goals per game. This team continues to impress me every week, guys like Allison playing like the nhl draft pick he is, Conrad is on a tear.

On to another ranked opponent this week, Colgate. Another sweep at home especially over a ranked opponent would be absolutely huge

I also bemoaned the loss of top talent from last season. I never thought we'd jell this fast with all the new players.

We're playing well early in this season. We need to keep on doing it, the NCHC always evens out in talent after New Years Day.

I am as guilty as anyone else for being a negative Nancy but the season is still early, if we are still keeping it up in late january i have a crow in the freezer, and will be happy to cook em up and start eating. For now i will just be pleasantly surprised. On the plus side we are done with DU and only have two with UND

I will be happy to eat my crow too. This schedule is definitely in our favor especially in conference play not having to go to Denver. This team has won 6 of the last 7 games.

I knew we'd be ok, there's a ton of talent on this team that didn't get to shine with guys like Molino and Iacopelli last year in the way. I agree we have to keep pushing it though, it's easy to lose 3-4 games in a row in this conference.
