Wilbur

Bad neutral zone penalty and its 3-1.

Zellers becomes a pylon in the zone, and its followed by more flies on !@#$ and its 2-1. Plenty of blame to go full circle, starting with the turnover on the other end.

Rolling puck too. Nice play by 8.

Some of our d men are a 2-1 waiting to happen.

I don't think they'll call it a major.

The conference USA/MAC teams are the teams that get plucked as the early season schedule filler tune-ups for the power 5 teams so they can say they played an entire 1-A schedule when it gets down to the new playoff scenario. And when they are booked you get your FCS vs. FBS games, which are your FCS superbowls. Legit FCS teams are at the top of all those conferences, hands down. I'd even say UND would probably be fine up there. There is literally zero chance any of their conference games end up on a legit network on a Saturday. So they are playing on Tueday/Wednesday/Thursday nights on ESPN2/ESPNU to fill time pre college basketball season in front of 6,000 people and the highlights won't make ESPN because they'd rather talk about the WNBA and Ohtani. Yeah, NDSU should move up to that. How busy is the Fargodome on Tuesday or Wednesday nights?

Yotes sitting at 5-4 means this and every game after is a playoff game for them. I expect a very hungry home team, and another good road test for our kids to prove that the old road woes are a thing of the past.

I'll say tonight we win 4-2 with a Dylan James ENG, and Saturday the dogs get their revenge with a 2-1 win.

This reminds me of Adam Tambellini all over again. A whopping .25 PPG at UND in 16 games. Jumps over to Calgary and in over 100 career games in the WHL he puts up a 1.22 PPG average. You are playing against older, more complete/mentally mature players in college hockey. Makes sense why some CHL teams are currently paying NAHL teams for players now. If you are a CHL guy it makes sense to make the jump to college hockey, but the video game numbers you put up in Moose Jaw are over with. I think its been said, and I'll agree, as long as you have that CHL eligibility but aren't at the level of a Verhoeff or Reschny, it probably makes sense to develop another year or so in the CHL before making the jump to the NCAA.

As soon as the game went as south as it did they should've put in Brosmer. Run the ball and throw some quick outs. You weren't going to win that game either way.

You're sure your related? Must get the looks from dad's side.....😆 I really like watching him play. At least he was a pio and not a goofer like dad!

This right here. I know we are supposed to hate the guy because he played at the Ag school(doesn't make me hate them any less), but going in with a fractured shoulder socket to go along with the labrum....every time you get tackled its got to be excruciating pain. He was indeed the whipping boy until JJ was 110 percent ready to play again. I think it shows as well what they have with Golden Gopher legend Max Brosmer. It could be a dark day in Detroit on Sunday.

I think the weekend comes down to our d core. Duluth has some good young players, especially their top line of Plante-Plante-Shaugabay. Max Plante is currently +11 on the year through 8 games. I like our d core when they play with a d first mentality and don't cheat defense for offense. They were pretty solid in front of Jan on Saturday, and if they hold Duluth to 25 shots or less I like our chances. We had our success against Gajan last year, but to his credit he's had a nice start to the year. Probably a Czech vs. Slovakian goaltending matchup on Friday night. Should be fun.

Thought our d was much more under control. Emery quietly had himself a real efficient hockey game on the back end. I guess whether you win 1-0 or 10-0 they all count the same. I may need to light up a cigar and have a beer or two, this feels like a loss.

That no call on the clear take down and they almost tie it up.... Come on stripes....

Empty net penalty? Wow.....you've got to explain yourself stripes.

Klee can't be back after that penalty. Practically next shift.

Klee got his hands high. Could've been a minor for face mask too. Dum .

We are going to get scored on if we keep this up.

Dakota Marker Game gets built up all week..... Ohh BTW SDSU starting QB is hurt. Not that it matters with the way NDSU is playing.

What are you doing Weibe? Dangle by your own net then ice the puck.

What a crap start to the period. Wake up.

I like how calm Spunnar plays in the net. Under control. A good first start for him to this point.

I'd say carrying the play, but not dominating.

The argument is that the d man skated into Rickwood's ice and fell. The same thing just happened to our wing going to the point. You cant call the first one, and not that one.
