Wilbur

Just wanted to say that the lucky sweater is 5-0 in game threes since I was in college.....

UND fans will be out in full force Friday night in downtown Minneapolis. Can't wait for Friday to get here. Some beers to settle me in for Western and Denver, and then UND-Miami to keep their seasons alive. Everyone remembers the last game UND played at the Target Center.

Agreed. They have to look at defensive zone coverage. Too many goals from the points off of tips and screen plays where sticks weren't tied up. Breaking the puck out will be a point of discussion I'm betting. Keep it simple against Miami fellas.

Heart is in my throat......

Bad turnover again, and its 4-3. Come on fellas.

The last guy you want on a breakaway twice in a row.....but under two minutes left now.

Okay.....Powerplay UND. Watch the cherry picking Russian.

Under 5 to the Hogg being the social place to be on Saturday at 11 AM.

I had a feeling Panz would end up in the lineup tonight for a more physical presence. I like him in the lineup. Not the most talented guy in the world, but the effort and heavy game (© Starman) add a lot to the group.

Okay, question here.....The Parks line can score but at the same time a defensive liability. How much ice do they see the last 8 minutes here? UND Bench on injured Tiger: He hit himself....glad he's okay.

Troy Stecher saved a goal on a nice reverse net cycle play by CC. Little plays that make a huge difference.

Someone have any idea when the last time either BC or BU weren't at the hockey east tournament? PS: Next year I'll pick BC to win the league to kill any chance they have. Sorry BU.

For the love of Parise, watch for the cherry picking Russian.

Powerplay for UND. And Obstruction is called.....what?

Now keep the foot on the gas pedal fellas.

BIG BIG GOAL BOYS!!!

I can't remember seeing a team ice the puck this much. Wow.

Well, 20 minutes to play fellas. I'd like to see UND battle to get the next goal. Go at them hard here and get that two goal lead back. CALM DOWN LADUE!!!! WE ALL LOVE YOU PAULIE!!!!

Fire Allain and Sandeline......

Wilbur's keys to Minneapolis: ~Zane. CC has to earn every goal. No cheapies from the high slot. ~Quicker transition out of the zone. Last night hesitation cost them in OT ~Play a near penalty free game. Did a good job not giving CC power plays. ~Hit the $#%@#$% net. Even if Thorimbert makes a save, it gives you a possible rebound opportunity. Too much glass last night. Low shots into the pads works for me. ~To quote one of my favorite players of all time, "Play Sioux hockey". We all know what goes into it, and we've seen it at times this year. Playing with desperation every shift. 60 minutes of being hard to play against. And we'll see you all in Minneapolis if that happens. Well, I'll be there regardless.....

Well, I'll be there....hope UND is too. Congrats on the big win tonight at SCSU. Miami is a good hockey team. Fun to watch. They may be the team I cheer for if UND drops an egg tomorrow.

7 of the 9 games that have been played in the NCHC playoffs have been won by the road team.....

I'm glad that this team gets to play with its backs up against the wall. Hopefully someone shows them video of the UNO players, and Duluth players after their season was ended on their home ice by a visiting team. Tomorrow should be the best this UND team can play. Both teams are playing for their lives. Heck, UND probably playing for their lives every time they step on the ice from now on.

Yup, or hard right away on the boards to the wing. Hesitated, and CC set up their forecheck, and its in the net.

Yup, felt that coming. Dominate play and then lose it. Win or your season is probably over with. Need to find that overtime gear the entire night tomorrow evening.
