Saturday night with Duluth-Spicer's Revenge???
The Sicatoka replied to Wilbur's topic in Men's Hockey
My coaches taught: If there's one attacker "below" you and D partner, and your D partner has them, the net front is your responsibility, and even more so if the play behind the net is going toward your corner* (which it was if you were 25). Why? The rest of play is moving in toward you from behind (trailers). Notice the direction Howard showed up: behind where 25 should've been. And notice a second 'dog behind Howard; mentioning him ... The forward play? We were taught if the center is in zone the forwards stay no deeper than the bottom of the circles, preferably covering up direct passes to the points. The center goes below the goal line if he's in zone. Notice 9: the D on his side was uncovered and had crept down and was ten feet behind Howard. (EDIT: It wasn't the D, it was a forward, Spicer.) 3 lost his man and allowed a reverse in direction; 25 left the front; 27 after the reverse went to the puck leaving an open slot as 25 just left; 9 was just out of position (and with more experience may have recognized the uncovered slot). Each of 25, 27, or 9 barely twitched a head to see what was coming in behind them; all were locked onto the hypnotic puck. *The exception to that was if your center was in the slot and called you to retrieve. Then you could leave the front. -

Saturday night with Duluth-Spicer's Revenge???

Our spectacular in-zone defensive play Saturday night made #5 on NCHC's Plays of the Week ... for Isaac Howard. But now I have the video on who was out there: 3, 25, 27, and 9 all below the goal line*, and 17 doesn't enter the frame until long after the damage is done. *To my eye, only 3 and 27 have reason to be there. -
I believe they want both venues to have the same dimensions so it would be a concern if the X was primary venue.

Unless you're Bill Chaves your vote matters none. Don't forget Andy Armacost gets a vote on Bill Chaves.

Better stick-work skills than you I guess. -
Do the words "Jeff Boschee" ring any bells?

Page 5, Item 4. I believe the plan is to somewhat "bowl-out" The Betty with more permanent seating. The addition would be as large as The Betty and always stay in four-court practice configuration.

Have you asked The Ralph?

When Kansas played at The Ralph back whenever I thought they left the boards in but took the glass down.

Pretty sure some of the hockey guys that lived in Walsh back in the day got four "gender studies" in a weekend. What's that? Oh, so you're saying it means something different today. Oops. My bad. -
UM and NDSU have NIL policies ... and they merely echo the NCAA policy. Should UND form another committee to write another already set policy document? That said, UND players are already using the NCAA policy on NIL in their favor.

You say UND leadership can't get the ordinary done. So you want them to undertake the extraordinary?

I saw him too. He is what I call a "loper". He doesn't take a lot of strides but does he cover a lot of ground!

Well there's our problem: too dang smart. We need more dumb hockey players! -
I'll let Lauren Holly explain it ... PS: Jim Carrey ended up married to Lauren Holly (yes, that's her) ... so there was a chance. PPS: That was @stoneySIOUXin flannel in the dream sequence. PPPS: Hockey content even!

Just adding a key emphasis ... 2/3 of that ain't do so hot on that this year.
