The style of play was definitely downgraded by Berry tonight. No sliding & blocking shots which is definitely a part of our game. Don't blame him for that is we don't want players hurt.
But we lost the Face-Off battle and you're right, just out hustled all night. I'm hoping he's taking a page out of Sandlin's playoff book, which is to prepare only for the the big dance.
And can anyone shed light on the goalie situation.
I always like to think our recruiting class is outstanding; however, are we being out recruited? Granted we had to replace an entire defensive crew, but how does someone like Omaha, and I don't mean disrespect, out talent us.
Omaha is feeling it & good for them, they definitely earned it. We will be a two or three seed & definitely out of Sioux falls.
Hope we can figure out the goalie thing. Having the starter not start is a mental downer for the team.
At this point it's really unacceptable.. they're getting crushed on Face-Offs and in general play. Granted we're going to the NCAA but I'm afraid it's going to be one and done.
We just make mediocre teams look like freaking amazing.
Giving up seven goals is not our style. But it has been to CC and UNO. Not exactly how you'd like our team to end the regular season.
Terribly outplayed tonight. W. Michigan had a huge advantage in puck obsession & shots, but UND held the line with the blocked shots.
we've been on the losing end of games where we should have won, so good to see that tonight was our night.
Get the sweep tomorrow night.
I thought he would have been pulled after that 4th goal, but he did shut em out in the 3rd (why I get the big bucks for being the couch coach)
He deserves to play tomorrow night. Hopefully his nerves are settled.
