Early history

edit

Varsity ice hockey at the University of North Dakota began in 1946 with John Jamieson as the first coach. The 1946–47 season was the first winning season in UND history with a record of 7 wins, 6 losses, and 0 ties.[2]UND joinedMichigan Tech,Colorado College,University of Denver,University of Michigan,Michigan State University,andUniversity of Minnesotaas founding members of theMidwest Collegiate Hockey League(MCHL) in 1951.[3]In the program's first season in league play UND finished with a record of 13–11–1.[2]After two seasons the MCHL became theWestern Intercollegiate Hockey League(WIHL) and later in 1959 became theWestern Collegiate Hockey Association.[3]Artificial ice was installed in UND's Winter Sports Building, commonly known as "The Barn", in 1953.[4]

Bob Maybecame the 5th coach in UND history for the 1957–58 season and led the team to the 1957–58 WIHL Regular season Championship.

UND fell in their first championship and post season tournament appearance toUniversity of Denver2–6.[5]Following the 1957–58 season the WIHL broke up, after Michigan, Michigan State, Michigan Tech, and Minnesota left the conference following a dispute over recruiting practices.[6]Despite not violating the WIHL or the NCAA's rules of the period, the four exiting schools accused Denver, North Dakota and Colorado College of breaking a gentlemen's agreement by recruiting overage Canadians.[6]

Thorndycraft era

edit

Without a conference UND competed as an independent Division I team for the 1958–59 season. Barry Thorndycraft took over for May as head coach and continued the winning tradition established in the previous season.

Gasparini era

edit

John "Gino" Gaspariniwas hired in 1978, Gasparini played for UND from 1964 to 1967 before a short stint in theInternational Hockey Leaguethen returning to UND under Bjorkman as an assistant coach. Gasparini's impact was immediate and UND finished the regular season winning the MacNaughton Cup and advancing to the1979 NCAA tournament.North Dakota picked up a 4–2 victory ofDartmouthin the semi-final round but fell in the national championship game to Minnesota 3–4.[12]North Dakota finished the season with a record of 30–11–1, the program's first 30-win season, as well as Gasparini being named WCHA Coach of the Year.[2]The 30 wins of the 1978–79 season was eclipsed the following season when North Dakota picked up 31 wins and the programs thirdNational Championshipwith a 5–2 win overNorthern Michigan.[13]North Dakota returned to the NCAA tournament in1984.North Dakota sweptRensselaertwo games to none in the quarter-final round but fell 1–2 in overtime toMinnesota-Duluth[14]

After four quiet years,Dean Blaistook over as head coach of North Dakota after John "Gino" Gasparini in 1994.

North Dakota returned to the NCAA tournament in1998and1999but were plagued with early-round exits. In the 1999–2000 season, after again winning the WCHA Tournament, UND advanced through the2000 NCAA tournamentto the Championship against Boston College, looking for its first NCAA title since 1949. BC had a 2–1 lead entering the third period, but UND responded with three goals, with two by Lee Goren. Goren tied the game, assisted on Jason Ulmer's game-winning goal, and then scored into an empty Eagles net in the last minute of play to secure the game. It marked North Dakota's seventh national title overall and second since 1997, and was also the third time in three years that BC came up short in the Frozen Four.[20]Boston College got its revenge over UND the following season when the two teams again faced each other in theNational Championship.BC won its first national title since 1949 by defeating North Dakota, 3–2, in overtime on a goal scored by sophomore forwardKrys Kolanosjust 4:43 into OT.[21][22]

National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC)

edit

On July 14, 2011, College Hockey Inc. announced the formation of a new hockey league, the National Collegiate Hockey Conference, which would begin play in the 2013–14 season. The league's six charter members were North Dakota, Colorado College, Denver, Miami (OH), Minnesota–Duluth, and Nebraska-Omaha. All were WCHA members except for CCHA member Miami. Two months after the announcement of the new league, the NCHC added a sixth WCHA member, St. Cloud State, and another CCHA member, Western Michigan. The NCHC has had no membership changes since starting play. The new league was made after theBig Ten Conferencedecided to sponsor hockey. This change caused widespread backlash due to the break-up of old rivalries that included Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin.

Berry Era (2015–present)

edit

After Dave Hakstol obtained the head coaching job in Philadelphia,Brad Berryreceived a promotion to Head Coach on May 18, 2015. In his first year, he managed a decisive 34–6–4 record, building a line known as the CBS line (Caggiula, Boeser, Schmaltz).

In 2016, North Dakota once again won the NCHC Regular season Championship, but were defeated in the NCHC Tournament. UND finished the regular season as the #3 ranked team in the country and qualified for the NCAA tournament.[40]For the third consecutive season, UND advanced to the2016 Frozen Four,defeating Northeastern, and Michigan to get there. Following a dramatic 4–2 win over Denver, North Dakota had reached the Championship where they defeatedQuinnipiac5–1. This was their first championship since 2000, and their eighth overall. Only Michigan and Denver have more championships with nine.

2017 was an up and down year that resulted in the program's 15th consecutive postseason berth. North Dakota lost in double overtime against Boston University in the NCAA tournament, after having a goal disallowed in the first overtime due to an offsides review.

In 2018, inconsistency again plagued the North Dakota hockey team. Plenty of streaks ending, most notably the run of postseason NCAA national tournament appearances. North Dakota's streak of 20 wins in a season came to an end. It resulted in missing the postseason for the first time since the 2001–2002 season.[41]

2019 was another inconsistent year for North Dakota. It resulted in the team finishing 5th in the 8th place NCHC standings. This snapped a streak dating back to the 2002–03 season in which North Dakota hosted and ultimately advanced in their conference tournament. Their season ended with a sweep to the hands of Denver in the first round of the NCHC playoffs.

2020 was a return to national prominence for UND. The team accomplished many feats that few North Dakota teams did before. The team won a series at rivals Denver for the first time in years by virtue of a win and a tie and swept both games against Minnesota at 3M arena at Mariucci for only the 2nd time in the previous 40-year history of games in Minneapolis. The team achieved a #1 ranking in both national polls and was PairWise #1 during the regular season for the first time since 2017. The team went on to win the Penrose Cup as regular season champions in the NCHC.

2020 Post-season Cancellation Due to COVID-19

edit

In March 2020, before College hockey playoffs began, theNCAAcancelled the remainder of all college sports 2020 spring season. The team was due to host Colorado College for a first round series for the start of the postseason, however, the NCHC tournament was canceled due to the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19). Very soon after, the NCAA tournament was canceled leaving the season over for North Dakota. North Dakota set a home record at 18–1, the best in UND hockey history with a win percentage of.947. UND finished the year ranked #1 in the Pairwise with a record of 26–5–4.

2021-Present

edit

In 2021, as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it was determined to play only league games in the NCHC. The first ten games of league play would start in a "pod" in Omaha at Baxter Arena in a three-week period to maximize opportunity to play all games in a controlled situation. North Dakota finished the pod in first in the NCHC and continued to roll into the rest of the regular season and captured their second straight Penrose Cup as regular season champions of the NCHC. The postseason tournament, instead of being played in St. Paul at the Xcel Energy Center due to restrictions from COVID-19, was selected to be played at UND's Ralph Engelstad Arena. North Dakota won the NCHC postseason tournament for the first time in their history making them the first NCHC team to win both the regular season and postseason titles in the same year. UND's promising season ended in heartbreaking fashion in the NCAA regional final round with a loss to rival Minnesota-Duluth in 5 overtimes, making it the longest game in NCAA postseason history.

2022 brought continued success in the regular season for North Dakota. They captured the Penrose Cup for a third consecutive season. They entered the postseason playing host to Colorado College in the first round of the NCHC playoffs and swept the Tigers. A loss at the Frozen Faceoff to Western Michigan ended their NCHC tournament. They would be selected to play in the NCAA tournament but lose in the first round to Notre Dame ending their season.

2023 was a disappointment to the high expectations coming into the season. Inconsistencies in their play in the early part of the year plagued their season despite playing better towards the end of the year. The team would finish tied for 5th in the NCHC standings, and ultimately bowed out in the semifinals of the NCHC tournament. The team would not be selected for participation in the NCAA tournament, which is the 3rd time in 8 years under Brad Berry they have not qualified.
