Iāve yet to see a game where the team scoring the most goals lost. But Iāve seen many games where the team with the most āstructureā didnāt win.
Yes indeed it did. Exhibition games are important. We scored a single goal on Augie and they ripped four on us, none of which were cheapies. We never recovered from that. It was a confidence shaker for the boys.
And youāre being a twit. Howād it go for UND last year after starting this season with a dismal exhibition effort against Augustana? Four for them, one for us. No one remembers how well we took care of our end of the ice.
Exactly. If this team canāt score at least five goals itās going to be a very tough start to the season. Itās an exhibition of skills (or the lack thereof) for a lot of new faces. Itās an important first look.
Very solid looking D but a lot of new unproven forwards, along with average portal transfer talent. Homer needs to stand tall among the transfers. My instincts suggest a slow start to 25-26, but coming on strong in January. The Manitoba game should tell us a lot.
I'm hoping for ESPN so East Coasters learn that the best hockey in the country is played out west. Even with NCHC winning all the natty's it seems they still haven't learned. Certainly their announcers haven't.
Pretty sad when playing in the finest hockey facility in the land in front of the most dedicated fan base in all of college hockey (at home and on the road) ain't cuttin' it.
