I HATE ST. CLOUD. It would be nice to see some chemistry within the line groupings. Don't get me wrong , there is some. Mostly pairings instead of the entire line or better yet, clicking with the backend too. That onus is the coaching staff.
Western is definitely in a bad spot with goalie issues. They are big, but haven’t really used their size to punish like they did in the past. This should be a good exercise for UND to do some tuning.
Our top line is not our Senior line. Mismash is more of a liability than an asset. Gooch has to figure out how to make space again. I hope Thome is in net tomorrow.
Scheel has a neon light blinking above his blocker that lights up and says “hit me”. He needs to come out of the net to shrink that spot. Pinto, 18-0 on draws WOW!! I hope Thome plays tomorrow.
Pinto had the primary assists for both goals and looked great. Gaber is the real deal, he reminds me of Drake Caggiula and Tyson Jost. Very good in shaking a defender off and really good hands. He went into the corner with 2 Miami players and came out with the puck. I think Miami's line against our senior line matched up and nulled them out.
My 2 cents
I too am offended by anybody kneeling during the playing of our National Anthem. Like what was said by dmksioux, On their own time...have at it, not when they are part of a team representing UND.
I'm thinking he should get down on both knees, fold his hands, & thank God he is in a country that allows him the freedom to express himself in such a way.
