UND-FB-FAN is in the glasses ...

Shamelessly stolen from elsewhere: Hope NDSU coaches wear khakis this season so he's ... Jake from (ND) State (farm school) wearing khakis.

He's too busy. Him and his fat stacks of oil patch cash are makin' it rain somewhere.

Do we know? And was Dale all that popular (aka influential) at the time having left UND hangin' not long before. And who was on, and influenced, that hiring committee.

The goal of the diamond is to take time and space away from the "umbrella" (two wings and point). Do that and they have to move it and not shoot. But again, it opens up a two on one low.

I thought the rule was interpreted as "six feet". Basically if the off-going guy can touch the bench dasher with his stick the on-coming can go but both have to be in that six foot window until one is off. However, the on-coming better not touch the puck until the off-going has a leg over the boards.

Teams are trying a "sliding box" more traditional PK. It's not getting to (sliding to) the wings fast enough (to UND's benefit) on the cross seam pass. I expect someone to go "diamond" to get closer to the shooter wings and the umbrella point. The danger is the down low 2 on 1 the diamond opens up. Which devil ya wanna dance with.

1. KEM is neither "baba yaga" nor running the department. 2. As Kelly Howe has pointed out, a lame duck coach (2024 and 2025 left on deal and likely no extension) does not scream 'stability'. A number of different people could make moves to resolve this but none have. Is it due to myopia (they don't see the lack of stability and issues it brings) or just stubborness.

JPI had a six point game plan but it wasn't enacted by him.

I hadn't seen anything like the east coast media spooge-fest for Vesey since Jason Krog.

And Berg's PPG was a flashback to Weatherby's "downhill" power play setup from a few years back. Does no one watch video and be ready for what's coming?

John Paul I is still considered a Pope even if just for 33 days.

1. Regarding DU: hope to not see them again this season. 2. Regarding Miami:

If I was looking for a former UND guy, with OC experience, ... Freund?, Landry? ... why not Schleussner. Luke would be my first pick.

His picture looks like he borrowed a jacket, ... and shirt, and tie.

Denver put a body on Perron every chance. Another year of strength for Perron and that won't work. Remember: McLaughlin used to look light and weak out there. That changed. Perron will too.

Tony Galento quote here.

So ... no chance. Fire Berry. Roger that.

DU can just throw their helmets onto the ice and go to Joe Black's and still win you're saying.

The linesman with the '70s 'stache and flo-mullet is premium.

Fire the Circular Firing Squad!
