Username Taken

I would say this is significantly different than just the standard yearly retooling and picking up a few exciting recruits. There were some serious concerns about the future, enough so that it was all blown up. After building it up over the course of a couple of months we now have validation that UND can at least still recruit as good as, if not better than they ever have. You are correct in that the next step is taking the next step at the end of the year.

Chyzmas! Have yourselves a day Bryn and Dane. We’re having fun again.

Nodak Sens…Duluth Jets. I didn’t realize Iafallo, Toninato, Pionk, and Samberg all played for Winnipeg. Hopefully Winnipeg gets waxed in game 7.

That’s part of the problem. How are we supposed to know as fans that BB just basically stopped recruiting? We had some studs under the Berry tenure. Crazy to think of what could have been if he actually put some effort into it.

The hockey team gets access to the pool right after grandmas water aerobics class.

To be honest Matteo did nothing to show he was worthy of a spot. Happy it worked out for him but we all had the same reaction of meh when he left.

Hopefully UND gets some decent portal crumbs after every other team that has their **** together calls dibs.

Gotta have the horses to open it up. Hopefully they can get guys in the system that can skate and make plays at a higher speed. Didn’t see much of that in the lineup this last year and trying to run and gun with teams that do have that skill can be tough.

Thing they’ll miss most about Omac were his automatic zone entries. He was very slick thru the neutral zone. What a disaster this program was over last year. My goodness.

Zero shots on net in the 3rd. I’ve seen that strategy before.

Agree. If they are going to keep the HC in house, bring in at least one successful outside assistant that will offer a different perspective that won’t be a yes man. Herter has been around enough to know what works and what doesn’t. If he ultimately wants to be a HC himself, it ain’t happening at Western anytime soon.

Bad goal to give up to end your season.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been this confident in a UND goaltender making a save.

Wilkie is a massive boat anchor to Omac and Boisvert. So many pucks died on his stick tonight. Gotta replace him on that line tomorrow. Team doesn’t have much confidence, which was extremely evident in the 3rd. How do you “let off the gas” when your season is basically on the line? If you’re saying that as a collective effort then isn’t that an admission of guilt if you’re the head coach?

Yeah UND was the better team in the first two periods. They sat on the lead in the third like everyone knew they would. That’s on coaching. Got lucky tonight. Not much of a recipe moving forward.
