...I already answered that question in another thread. No one denies the importance of Roseau-Warroad, Iron Range, Duluth in importance of Gophers titles. I told you that before, I lived in Duluth and Rochester my whole life before moving to the U for school. I am always cheering for anything north of Blaine and south of Inver Grove Heights in the HS tourney.
Yeah, without Grant, maybe one of those titles would not have been, but how many of the UND ones happen if they are in Bismarck? How many of their "great players" come from UND?
I just get so sick of UND fans who are so high on their hockey team that is their sole source of pride(like I can blame them), that they did not develop 90% of the time.
Taco has another point, without Ralph, where are they? The Gophers are certainly a better team without out of state recruits, but they are the still the Gophers. Additionally, if UND is in Bismarck, how many more of the great Sioux players go to the Gophers instead. How many more National Championships do the Gophers win without UND as a serious rival or stealing great players.
