He doesn't score often but when he does they are monstrous goals.

Haha please share some quips for the group so we can get some laughs after knowing what he’s saying about us

Kunz looked good on that line with Omac and Blake tonight. Every line was clicking very well tonight, man it was fun to watch them crush Duluth!

2023-24 University of North Dakota Hockey Season
hockeytherapy13 replied to AlphaMikeFoxtrot's topic in Men's Hockey
No one is going to have a piece of cake in the first round this year. I don’t remember the last time the bubble teams had such solid potential to make a frozen four as they do this season. For example: Just this last weekend the #17 pairwise team jumped up to #11 by sweeping the #2/3 team in the pairwise. There are always upsets, but predicting the first round winners in the NCAAs this year is going to be tougher than normal. -
We also were without Sanderson (easily our best player that season) for the frozen faceoff and NCAAs in 2022. I honestly think we may have beaten 1 or both of those teams with him because those were close, winnable games. If we would have had that punch on the power play and could have driven more offense from the back end, we have a way better chance.

Yeah both the 2020 and 2021 teams would absolutely wreck this season’s team. Forward depth, goaltending, and d Corp. a top line of Guchi Adams and mismash combined with Shane pinto centering 2nd line and Weatherby centering 3rd line is pure insanity. Plus Scheel was a better and more consistent goalie. I still give 2021 the edge with Sanderson and Kleven on D along with JBD kierstad, bast, Frisch. Too good and a team that could have gone head to head with 2016 or 2011 when it comes to scoring depth, all around defensive play, and goaltending.

I’d like to see hedquist due to Persson’s complete lack of consistency for weeks. But since we need to get in a rhythm leading into playoffs I’m guessing Berry plays Persson to see if he can get out of his funk and start playing well every night to the level we know he can play at. But our play in front of him was a massive problem all weekend so if we clean that up, I like our chances this coming weekend. I don’t see us getting 6 clean points but I think we get 4-5 out of the weekend and “win” the series. Although we should get 6 against them at home just looking at paper and computers haha

2023-24 University of North Dakota Hockey Season
hockeytherapy13 replied to AlphaMikeFoxtrot's topic in Men's Hockey
Has Mayotte done a better job with what he has compared to Berry doing what he's done with our talent? Then yes, Mayotte wins. And I'm still saying Berry has done a really good job and I still want him as our coach. But Mayotte is easily the NCHC coach of the year. I know you can't really admit that on a public forum but Mayotte has done an incredible job this season in the conference from a coaching standpoint with Berry being number 2. -

Who are we thinking on coach of the year at this point? lol sorry…too fun to ignore. Yes Berry really has done great but Mayotte has done better. -
I rescind this. Please excuse me jinxing the 3rd period
-
Win or lose we have to be happy with the response this team has shown compared to last night. This 3rd period will tell the story of how we face this adversity.
-
We badly need James back tonight. Can’t lose our fastest skater against a team like this. Man I hope we play smart in the 3rd and leave with at least something more than 0 points
-
The effort is there for sure, no one can complain about that. But last year’s d zone play has shown up at times this weekend with the dumb mistakes. Time to get back to our d zone play we had a few weeks ago
-
This isn’t a fair comment nowadays because there is sooo much good talent and so many great coaches. Add in the ability to use video for breaking down shifts and pre scouting the other teams/players and it makes for a more even playing field. We should and do expect great things but ripping Hak for never winning the big one and ripping a loss here and there (although we did play reeeally bad last night) isn’t always fair. Missing the tourney on 3 of the last 5 years was a painful blow but we are back on the upswing. Another example of how many good teams and players there are now: look at the bubble teams in the pairwise at 12-18ish and you can safely say any of those teams could legitimately make the frozen four. There will absolutely be “upsets” this year as there always are in the tourney but this season they should hardly be considered upsets in a one and done situation. sorry for the rant: I understand if I get the TLDR response haha
-
Heck we got swept at DU in either January or February of 2016 and that turned out fairly decent a couple months later
-
I think it’s more than just effort and tenacity. Because our guys came out with a ton of tenacity last night. It was about them making the wrong plays and not being able to break through the neutral zone or play with possession in the O-zone at even strength. Once we had that goal “taken away” with the early whistle and the high stick call for CC’s 3rd goal went the wrong way against us, we mentally crumbled. We were outcoached pretty hard and it got in our heads. Like it’s been said already, tonight’s response tells us a lot about our team. I still think CC deserves credit and is good enough to finish the sweep against us but we have enough talent to win if we play a smarter game.
-
Yeah 8 is being treated as if he is an offensive weapon and he’s not. Stop trying to force something that isn’t going to happen. Put him down to 4th line with ness and Albrecht, get strinden on 3rd with jammer and Perron so that Perron can flourish. or maybe really go for offense and get Perron back up with Gaber and Berg. Then have Kunz with Jammer and Strinden for a heavy line with great defense that can also be a threat then the 4th line is still Albrecht schmaltz and ness.
-
Hedquist should get the start tonight and some lines better be jumbled. A message needs to be sent that nights like last night (and like Friday in Oxford, for that matter) are unacceptable. The way we have lines set up, johannes or not, is not the answer for this team. Our 4th line was the only line that created 5x5 chances last night. But then again CC had a response for everything we tried
-
Watch Schmaltz and Pehrson get hat tricks in this period to make it crazy.
-
Our defense has been good most of the season, especially for being a completely new d corps.the team d is awfuk tonight all around. I’m not blaming the goalie, I’m just saying he’s let in some leakers throughout the year and just has not been the Persson we know he can be. It’s a fair and true statement
-
Persson isn’t the goalie we were hoping he would be. Some nights he’s incredible but too frequently he lets in easy ones. This is an awful showing by our guys, they all look bad except for the 4th line. But we got swept in the state of Colorado in 2016 so if we need to get some clunkers out of the way let’s do it now
-
Bad take. Have a seat
-
That’s the game folks
-
Of course their broadcast makes zero mention that we were 100% robbed of a goal due to an early whistle by a ref in poor position to blow it dead. That’s going to be a big story in this game because I don’t see us scoring 2 more goals to win it
-
Goalie also passed it to a guy who wasn’t even open
