  1. More "honors" for the team this weekend: First time in 47 games that they blew a lead after 2 periods First time since 2018 that they were swept at home Frankly, this team is amazingly average right now.
  2. All I can say is I watched this game with an old friend that has seen a lot of hockey like me, and we were both flabbergasted by the meltdown in period 3. Dominated most of the stats, except save percentage. Play Helsten tomorrow. The experiment is over with Driscol.
  3. I agree that this was maybe the best U18 Team I have seen, but when the #5 ranked college team gets shut out at home vs. high school kids, you can't just say the other team played well - that is only half the story. This UND team now as a solid reputation for not showing up to a bunch of games. How can they be called a team of "leaders" and be expected to do anything this season if they can't get focused on a regular basis?
  4. That was just plain slow & sloppy. So, now this team has two "honors": 1) First team to lose a "Destination Game" 2) First UND team to lose to the 17 year-olds (and got shut out, too). Not exactly the kind of things for which you want to be remembered.
  5. This was a good road performance. Not very much mojo offensively, but they pulled a "Duluth" tonight, with the shut down, don't break mentality. Held them to 1 goal, and took advantage when the opportunity arose. I like the direction the team is going, but I would like to see more consistent offensive possession.
  6. Heve to give kudos when due. ND, after SUCKING last night, came out and played a stronger defensive game. When they connect on a few passes and turn play north, they are a good damn team.
  7. Good goaltenders are expected to make difficult saves sometimes. Tonight would be a great time, after getting yanked last night.
  8. Can Driscoll ever get above .900?
  9. If they don't ship in someone in place of Jandric for tomorrow, we have no leadership.
  10. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that UND does not beat anyone 8-1 this year. So, most lopsided loss of the season? For sure, unless UND has an even worse Friday showing down the road,
  11. Have to say...this team really knows how to SUCK on certain nights. Epic fail guys.
  12. "ND did not have their game tonight. Nothing else you can say" is the most kind thing the announcers could say about this pathetic showing. Sad day in ND hockey history.
  13. I told myself I was not going to come here tonight to bitch about a loss. But...WTF? These Friday F-ups are getting old. What the hell, Berry?
  14. After a tough loss last night, where everything seemed to bounce wrongly, UND holds a team with 15 draft picks to 13 shots. I'm guessing that UM has not been held to that few shots in a long, long time.
  15. I was yelling at my TV: Save the Celly for when you tie the game, Gaber! Making it a 1-3 game was not the moment. Here's hoping that Driscol can get both a focus on, as well as some puck luck tonight. All three of the first goals were flukes. Not even sure the first one crossed the line fully. But, the next two were just bizarre.
  16. Will get dominated again tomorrow if that is the best they can do.
  17. Uninspiring, unintelligent hockey tonight. Yes, we had a few flu cases, but that showing was pathetic.

    I think 17K spend a lot to attend a game like this because they expect the team to play inspired, high level hockey. Ooops.

    This team is average. You are your record. A few players were simply brutal tonight. First destination loss - a terrible legacy for this year's team. Learn to start on time.
  20. Alternative Endings: Beavers will be eager tomorrow. better be ready to play hard in the slot! Beavers will be eager tomorrow. better be ready to finish our chances!
  21. My takeaways: Weak start - not competitive enough Good second. Lots of puck support going north. Not the best third, but a good road win anyway. Beavers will be eager tomorrow. better be ready to score!
  22. Agreed. UND looks slow and timid. Need to start battling for possession, or this is going to be ugly.
  23. Even though I don't really believe that I have the slightest influence on the team's success, I still wear green every game day, from the morning until the next day. Ritual.
  24. I'm surprised that Cooper Moore is not listed. Also a bit surprised to see Schmaltz as 2nd line center.
