He reminds me of another extremely overly hyped player that plays the exact same way with the first name Quinn. I think they are related!

That's an interesting question because the answer is everyone's next savior for the program Karl. It is quite interesting that the forward combos have been juggled constantly yet our D play has been horrendous and not much change at all there or at least with the top pair.

Like everyone I agree what he did was reprehensible but is the kid not allowed to earn a living for the rest of his life? Like SCPA said, from all indications he hasn't had any character issues since so should the kid not be allowed to do anything the rest of his life! His is still only 20 years old with the better part of his life yet to live. Give the kid a chance and again like others have said with a very short leash! I get professional hockey in the NHL is different than a normal 9 to 5 job but would there be any issue if the kid was hired by XYZ Company?

Switch James and Senden and I would like it.

Did he de-commit from UMASS? I see quite a few sites that have him as a UMASS commit?

Also, it seems to appear Tyler Dunbar is no longer a commit?

I know we keep bringing this up but it wasn't the coaches delaying him. He made the decision to move on and it caught the coaches by surprise. Put it this way, I was at the UND hockey sale this summer and there was a pair of skates for sale with Rizzo on them. He was fully expected to be here last year and Schlossman has even stated this.

And not to mention a hell of a bounce back game for him last night! He was absolutely atrocious on friday and came back and played a confident game last night. He was one of our best players and one of few who seemed confident with the puck and actually had some legs.

It looked quite obvious to me that the refs decided after UND's PP early in the third that UND was getting the next penalty unless a Gopher committed murder! McLaughlin with a head of steam and open ice in the neutral zone gets absolutely chopped down and no call. Brutal! All that being said, we didn't lose because of the refs. I don't have a good feeling about tonight. We looked completely gassed in the third.

I just downloaded the app on my Amazon Fire stick on my tv and it shows the game in upcoming events and also shows the same online. Hopefully that's the case at 7!

Looks like the Bally Sports App has a 7 day free trial for new customers which I just signed up for and will be canceling on Sunday so that should be a free way to watch the games this weekend!

Those are my thoughts exactly along with the obvious of 19-27-10. I said this weekend after friday night when I thought McLaughlin may have been the best player on the ice that it was inevitable that 9-22-17 found there way on a line together. My only concern is finding James a line. When Berry went to 3 lines on friday night down 3, he put him with 17 and 22 and wasn't out of place.

I went through there yesterday as well and thought the wash was better than Rydell which I have gotten a monthly pass for a few years. Tidal Waves rates are maybe a bit more expensive than Rydell and only allow one per day. I do think they may have some issues though as it isn't the easiest to get in and out of!

I agree and I've said this quite a few times in other threads, Hain has been tried multiple times in a top-6/scoring role and it just never has materialized. I just think he is a player best suited to be able to score some goals on more of a shutdown/grinder type line and there is nothing wrong with that. Every team needs guys like that!

I would agree that trying Blake with him is worth a shot although I thought Blake and Mcloughlin had pretty good chemistry on Saturday night. Honestly I think a lot of it comes down to Gaber. Like many have said on here already, it is obvious he is trying to do too much on his own and just needs to play his game and let the game come to him rather than trying to force it. It seems inevitable that if he keeps playing the way he is he is going to give up a breakaway when he is trying to stickhandle going back towards the blueline.

It will be interesting to see if there are any changes tonight. I would suspect if so it is because they were basically pre-planned before the weekend to mix in some guys as Berry has a history of if winning the lineup remains the same unless injuries.

I have heard he is leaning towards Michigan but hopefully we have a legitimate shot!

Could be because the brother Bast that came before him was injured the majority of his first 3 years at UND.

As far as the Hain on a scoring line comment, just an FYI pretty much every year they have tried Hain in a top-6 scoring role at the beginning of the year and he has never stuck there for very long. I'm wondering if that was just because so many guys were out Saturday or if they are giving him another kick at the can in Year 5? For me, I'd prefer just rolling the Senden-Jammer-Hain line.

And I said it back then and will say it again. There were two main reasons Hawks won. The first being I firmly believe is that "Fighting" in front of Hawks turned many people to Hawks. Would just "Hawks" have won vs. say "Fighting Nodaks"? I don't believe so. "Fighting" swung the vote. And the second being the fact that there were many different logo renditions circulating with feathers and different half-ass cool looking options which many believed would become our new logo. Instead we get the least creative name with that absolutely brutal postal service logo!

A list of college coaches(including assistants) that are the best recruiters?

I like to see that one. Hopefully with 10-15 lbs more on his frame! Also nice to see James name on there.

Wasn't there rumors of him de-committing from CC and committing to UND last year sometime?

One thing I really like with our forward group is I see completely different players that should be PP guys vs. PK guys. I like being able to roll out Senden-Jammer and Hain-Caufield for PK and then have that top 6 to mix and match for the PP. Yes Caufield will probably get the net front look on the PP but I really like being able to have different guys for each role. Should allow everyone to have more energy late in games if special teams plays a large part in the game not to mention it's nice not having to have your skill guys jumping in front of pucks blocking shots all game long on the PK.
