@AllanWylieSport @usahockey @DU_Hockey @NCAAIceHockey Pohlkamp, Salminen, Lorenz and potentially Buckberger are leaving for the NHL, but goalie Hicks, and young core of stars Chysowski, Epperson, and McMorrow -- they're all freshman. So yeah, they're not going anywhere.

@usahockey @DU_Hockey @NCAAIceHockey And they’re not going anywhere either this is a young team from what I understand and they have a scarier recruiting class coming in college hockey better watch out

That makes ELEVEN National Championship Titles 🏆 Congratulations to the 2026 NCAA National Champions, @DU_Hockey!! (📸 @NCAAIceHockey)

@NateAndree @NCAAIceHockey @DU_Hockey

@NCAAIceHockey @DU_Hockey Now refs trying to make sure this lead sticks. That’s a brutal call

MAKE SURE TO TIP 🫰💵 Kyle Chyzowski tips in a shot from Boston Buckberger to take the lead! #MFrozenFour x 🎥 ESPN / @DU_Hockey

@wafflehouse3000 @spittinchiclets No they didn't.

@spittinchiclets Most of these guys lost to an ACHA team. Gotta feel better now lol

THE DENVER DYNASTY CONTINUES 🏆

@cmasisak22 He's got the skill, but his size is working against him a bit - it's one of the first things the scouts look at.

I don’t know if Boston Buckberger is going to play 10 NHL games or 1,000. I do know there are 32 NHL organizations that would be better off with him being part of it, at some level, whenever he’s ready to turn pro.

@Spooshuw @BadgerMHockey @Pumpguy1988 Other teams *thinking* they're dominating the game while DU has them right where they want them is the secret to DUs success, lol. It's all about tight D positioning, good goaltending, wear out your opponent... then in the 3rd when they're gassed and making mistakes... pounce.

@BadgerMHockey @Pumpguy1988 Has that one. Going to be a lot of reflection. Absolutely dominated for 50 minutes and then it looked like we ran out of gas.

FINAL: Denver 2, Wisconsin 1. Our journey ends in the national championship game. Thank you, fans.

@jlneal64 @KellyLVLF22 @BadgerMHockey Interesting theory... maybe like a "point system" that assigns a number to each team to determine who is the better team?

@KellyLVLF22 @BadgerMHockey If only there was a way of measuring sporting contests so that we don’t have to rely on advancing theories about who was best. They should develop some kind of numerical process to decide it. But it would need to be objective.

@KellyLVLF22 @BadgerMHockey That game was a pretty typical DU win that got them 3 natty's in 5 years. Other teams *thinking* they're outplaying them while DU has them right where they want them is the secret to DUs success, lol. Going to the 3rd completely gassed with only a 1-goal lead isn't "dominating"

@BadgerMHockey Badgers were the better team by far!! They outplayed them 99.8% of the game. Great season, guys!

@BoltsnNo1es @WI_Sports_Guy @espn

@WI_Sports_Guy @espn Him and the ref that called that holding penalty. What a horrendous call.

FRESHMAN KYLE CHYZOWSKI WITH THE BIGGEST GOAL OF HIS LIFE 😱 Denver leads Wisconsin late in the national championship on ESPN and the ESPN App 👀

@DorsPaul @MikeMcMahonCHN Matty Davis.... AKA "Natty" Davis. And before that, it was Magnus Chrona.

@MikeMcMahonCHN Before him it was Gabe Davis,Carle can certainly find big game goalies

Denver got outshot 83-41 over the two games, and won the national title. Just an amazing effort by Johnny Hicks.

@colejennett @asahi_twt @SanJoseSharks @DU_Hockey He has an undisclosed "foot injury" -- that's all David Carle is saying.

@asahi_twt @SanJoseSharks @DU_Hockey Was he playing hurt Jenna? I was kinda hoping for a couple games with the Sharks to end the year.😬

National Champ! 🏆 Congrats to Sharks prospect, Eric Pohlkamp, on winning the NCAA National Championship with @DU_Hockey! #TheFutureIsTeal

@Fuel13 @usahockey @DU_Hockey I mean the top four, sure. The rest is a legit poll.

@usahockey @DU_Hockey would be pretty crazy if they weren't, and at this point is is really a poll or just standings

A𝟏𝟏 eyes on Denver 🏆 @DU_Hockey is on top of the final USA Hockey Men’s College Hockey Polls of the season! Polls: USAHockey.com/college

@Hsd241 @MikeGrinnell_ @BizNasty2point0 It's the DU way. They were frequently outshot this season and still won. It's all about tight D positioning limiting high-danger shots, good goaltending, wear out your opponent, team puck movement on O... then in the 3rd when they're gassed and making mistakes... pounce.

@MikeGrinnell_ @BizNasty2point0 Everyone is going to say Wisconsin was the better team and deserved the win but the reality is, DU never plays anything other than the way they want. Never allow the other team to dictate a change in game plan. No matter what the flow of the game looks like, they’re in control

Denver are rattlesnakes. They wait. They wait. They wait. Then they pounce. Every year. Every time.

@joeUM77 @MikeGrinnell_ @spittinchiclets Keep thinking that. Please do... other teams *thinking* they're dominating the game while DU has them right where they want them is the secret to DUs success, lol.

@MikeGrinnell_ @spittinchiclets Luck has taken Denver so much farther than their talent could ever take them!! Tell me where I’m wrong! They get 2 redirections in the 3rd and 1 the OT to beat 〽️🏒. It’s always better to be lucky than good because they have no choice !!

@joeUM77 @MikeGrinnell_ @spittinchiclets One time is luck. Two times is coincidence. Hell, even three times could be fortuitous. 11 times? That's skill.

@kristinabugsmom @theblockspot @UNLVRebelHockey Technically a tie because the NCAA doesn't recognize shootouts. It also wasn't a real game - an exhibition is glorified practice and doesn't factor into the record. DUs coaching staff and their top line was away for the WJCs that weekend, too. denverpioneers.com/news/2024/12/2…

@theblockspot And @UNLVRebelHockey beat Denver December 28, 2024

Denver won it all in 2017. Denver won it all in 2022. Denver won it all in 2024. Denver won it all in 2026. College Hockey has a dynasty. They play in Denver, Colorado.

@DrFedexGuy @theblockspot Denver has 11 in total. That's goated.

@theblockspot Minnesota-Duluth won it three times too.

@TeaBagCapital @theblockspot @BadgerMHockey Keep thinking that. Please do... other teams *thinking* they're dominating the game while DU has them right where they want them is the secret to DUs success, lol.

@theblockspot Dynasty? They are lucky they won. @BadgerMHockey dominated.

Absolute scenes at DU after winning the National Championship 🏆🏒

@BarstoolDenver Hilarious they have the SWAT teams out there haha

The greatest sports city in America

@Hsd241 @mattmurley19 @spittinchiclets @GameNotesBud "False sense of control" is a great way to put it - DU makes their opponent think they're controlling/dominating the game, when in reality DU had their opponent right where they wanted them the whole time.

@mattmurley19 @spittinchiclets @GameNotesBud They love to give the opponent a false sense of control and confidence. That confidence and feeling of out playing DU leads to complacency and every time DU will force that mistake and frustration, capitalize and rip their heart out!

Didn't carry this towel around for a week for nothing, its always Denver @GameNotesBud @spittinchiclets
