When I see the above list I'd say "sophomore housecleaning" hasn't been happening under Berry. I don't know why. I suspect he didn't have someone ready to step in so he had to hold onto what are today highly under-performing junior and senior classes.

Since the 2000-01 roster (on FightingHawks.com) here are names that I recognize as not making past a sophomore season at UND. Most of these are Hakstol era; I do not claim the list is 100% accurate for including all names nor do I claim that there might not be a name on there that shouldn't be (meaning played at a junior). Nate Wright Chris Fournier Ryan Connelly Derek Faul Todd Alexander Michael Forney Anthony Grieco Shea Hamilton Landon Snider Corey Fienhage Graeme Harrington Mike Cichy Brett Bruneteau Ryan Hill Dan Senkbeil Taylor Dickin Wade Murphy Mike Gornall Chris Wilkie Danys Chartrand Matej Tomek

And if my aunt had ... Why aren’t Hoff, Bowen, Yon playing there over Keane.

Since we’re all so smart, everyone who had Keane skating top six in February and Senden arguably the MVP turn in your winning tickets now.

Folks do realize that UND’s NCAA consecutive appearances run was the second longest in history. What UND did is far from normal or expected.

How many players were derostered after a sophomore season and a career of ten or fewer games under Hakstol? Frankly, Berry didn’t do enough of that so far.

Hope for the best; plan for the worst.

If you merged MIN, CHI, and LAK could you create a Cup contender? Plus ANA?

Looks like someone ate Cheetos and grape soda then yacked.

Paging Mister Harrison Feeney ....

Let’s see what Monday brings.

The numbers say there’ll be some roster turnover.

I ain't in the %gobc.

We don't take advice from your kind there Mr. Jimmy Schuldt.

Enough and not much.

As other have said, horrible optics and completely tone deaf and out of touch. That's like three of the five senses.

I assure you it's all good as I've paid to properly insure us with full grammar coverage and its benefits to thus ensure us no future difficulties. The rest of the readers? They're on their own, on the loose, over there; they lose.

You and your fancy high-fa-lootin' technical talk. But now that you say it he did take a game misconduct last game. He for the season has 13 penalties for 56 minutes. Do the math (fancy cypherin', ought and ought is ought, carry the naugh ...) ... 13 x 2 = 26. 56 -26 = 30 30 is ... THREE ... game misconducts. Three game misconducts = one game suspension. Thus Bowen sits tonight. And there's the answer.

So the scratches are 1, 9, 16, 20, 25, 35. The known unhealthy are 1, 16, 25. What's 9's status? Is he dinged up again? If so, we only have one healthy skater not dressed (20).

When the season started I was quite sure that 19 and 21 would be "GQ"* most of the season. Instead, one's invaluable as a reliable centerman and the other is skating top six tonight. *GQ -- modeling suits from the press box

So they pulled Weatherby from center to a wing? Interesting. Let's see if that kick-starts him.

So Allison's not playing this weekend?

Cue Brad Schlossman ...
