I see what you did there. Let’s hope the superstition works

6-1 Denver tonight

This might sound bad but if Perron is on the fence between playing or not I wonder if they consider only playing him on the Power play or if we are down a goal or 2 late in the game. Because with us having VERY little chance of getting an at large bid, let him rest as long as needed so we can have full power for conference playoffs.

Absolutely. Ryan Lasch and Garret Roe from Clown were also skilled in the art of the dive

Gavyn Thoreson was going to accept the nomination but he got an embellishment penalty on the way there. I’ll see myself out.

I know jammer took an early penalty, but his motor is running hard and he’d bring a lot more to that line than Kunz. More speed and more drive.

And don’t forget, they’re both regulars on the power play. Brilliant

Kunz is wasting the talent of Berg and James. Wilkie wasting the talent of Boisvert. We have 2 of our slowest and most disappointing forwards playing in the top 6 with some of our best talent. It’s beyond unreal. But they will think: “hey, we have a lead going into the 3rd, so keeping our top lines impotent is a great idea”.

Are there other skaters slower than Kunz? What are we doing here? Almost every other player might be better in that spot. The insanity is out of control.

He hasn’t been good but I’d wait a wee bit longer before calling him a bust.

Guessing Boisvert will be at Michigan state next year and Zellers will be at Denver.

Remember their preseason rank was #6 (which was too high but it is what it is). That has to be some kind of record National expectation to actual performance.

Man we had such a great shift with them hemmed in and then Boisvert shoots it to never land and the puck is out of the zone

No. Monty has taken his place on the top line.

Monty should not see the ice as a defenseman again today. He’s an absolute liability in the D zone

13% power play can score when given a wide open shot in the slot. worse than bantam level

Olympic gold medal?

He’s a lot of things (tool, douche, pompous, etc) but he’s not someone who gives a rip what people think about him. Therefore, there’s no reason for him to lie.

Monty. He did what we needed when it was necessary for an extra defenseman but frankly he is not a good D zone defender. Croal is a better forward and should easimy be in over Monty. Berry choosing experience over the better player even though the better player brings more to the table

Not over Croal. We don’t need that extra defenseman right now and Croal a superior player in every way. Just because Monty has played defense doesn’t mean he was actually good at defense. Again, I love his heart for UND and for the team but we need to play the best guys, plain and simple.

Please tell me this is a guess? Because If this is correct, then Croal isn’t getting a fair shake yet again. He should AT MINIMUM be the extra skater. Not Monty, not Andrew, not Komzak. Monty can play against his brother in the summer, not the games that actually count.

You know what surprised me? Adam Wodon (I think all of us have some opinions about him) actually voted for Frattin that year when he was on the committee. I about spit my coffee out when I heard that on a CHN podcast.

This prediction is realistic and I’d be all for it. These are 2 very evenly matched teams but we really are the better team on paper (famous last words?). If we can keep Laba somewhat contained and not get hit goalie’d, I like our chances a lot. Hopefully Laba doesn’t pull an Alex Bump on us.

Ugh I remember watching that

Heck maybe he benched himself because he knew he screwed up. But I really wonder which teammate he had the issue with because obviously that could greatly affect chemistry with certain teammates. Like most of us, I really only care about how this will affect the on-ice product because this team clearly doesn't need any other distractions.
