some jackass with a UND jersey had his buddy hold his legs as he laid over the railing to grab a blocker belonging to a UND goalie. The blocker then went under a jacket, and out the door.
Losers.

what did Tim just say coming back from break?
-
Isn't Jim Tressel available?
-
Is Sanderson sick? Would think he would be in over Mitch tonigh.
Go sioux
that aint gonna happen and i don't know why. good to see some plays made by Rodwell last night. if he could elevate his game it would really help this team.
-
small consolation... if you're watching webcast on laptop or desktop, grab fox iheartradio stream an d Hennessey is perfectly lined up with the undsports webcast.

i'm hearing they have thundersticks, cowbells, and megaphones ...

If Sanderson-Pattyn-Rodwell line generates any offense, UND wins.

In the ridiculous department....
Nick Schmaltz just scored again. Five points tonight. 11 points total in three games with the third still going. Getting silly now #NHLDraft
-
Nick Schmaltz set a Team USA record with his 10th point of the World Junior A Challenge. He has 4 tonight vs. Switzerland. Still 1 game left
-
Schmaltz continues to rip it up.
@chrismpeters@USAHockeyScores, Nick Schmaltz, who has three points tonight and nine at the WJAC, is one away from the U.S. tournament record.

Toews hates them too.

All this concern about Schmaltz (really, any really top recruit these days) reminds me of the old days and Dr. Hook:
When you're in love with a beautiful woman it's hard
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you know it's hard
Everybody wants her, everybody loves her
Everybody wants to take your baby home
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you watch your friends
When you're in love with a beautiful woman it never ends
You know that it's crazy, you want to trust her
And then somebody hangs up when you answer the phone
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you go it alone
Maybe it's just an ego problem
Problem is, I've been fooled before
By fair weathered friends and faint hearted lovers
And everytime it happens
It just convinces me more
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you watch her eyes
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you look for lies
Everybody tempts her, everybody tells her
That she's the most beautiful woman they know
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you go it alone
[break]
Everybody tempts her, everybody tells her
That she's the most beautiful woman they know
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you watch your friends
When you're in love with a beautiful woman it never ends
Dagies- i imagine you cranking that song in your Camaro with the T-Tops off cruising down S.Washington Ave.

I will believe you more if his brother plays another year here.
bank on it.

Nice, you sound pretty confident. I can run with that.
run with it.

All this global attention on him is making me nervous If he goes top ten he's gone. Hope I'm wrong though. He's on the cover of NHL.com right now.
he's coming to UND.

Helmets look JV style. There has to be a reason right? Silent protest over the old logo?? lol I don't know just a wild guess. I know it's not a huge deal but still looks awful and doesn't make any sense not to have something on both sides. Makes a helmet/uniform complete. Strange
agreed. don't know the reason for it. put the 'ND' on the sides like they did in the 80's.

Yes I am aware that yeo is from the Pit organization however I was unaware Pit plays dump and chase.
every team dumps the puck when they don't have numbers.....
-
Are you sure about the Wild using the same system as the Pens? Yeo uses a dump and chase system (which is super boring to watch). The Pens use the same system?
Yeo is from their organization and i've read that he does.
-
You can believe this all you want, but it's pure BS. The Pens do not struggle to put the puck in the net on a game to game basis like the Wild. Even with Parise and Suter, they still struggle to score goals. I think there is still too much dead wood left over from the Lemaire regime. And if you really think Hakstol does the same things Blais did, you obviously are watching a different team than I am. This concept of scoring one or two goals and then hanging on for the win is trademark Hakstol and it simply doesn't work that well against the really good teams in the NCHC and the NCAA.
No, i'm watching the same teams. You want a different decade of hockey and I think that's really what you have a problem with. Do i wish college hockey was still up and down with little neutral zone defense played? yes. that's why CC v UND games have been so entertaining the last couple of years because they play wide open against each other. College hockey isn't that way anymore and they play more systems and defense than ever. Love it or leave it.
In regards to the Pens vs the Wild---they have Crosby and Malkin which makes just a little bit of difference. We're you complaining about the 2006-2011 UND teams? Well they had Oshie, Toews, Duncan, etc etc etc... UND is still playing the same system, right now they just don't have the horses. But they will in due time.

I am no hockey expert, but the team definitely plays it closer to the vest than under Blais. Everything is about structure, structure, structure. Blais didn't really have a "system" for the forwards; all he wanted was for them to backcheck whenever the defensemen needed help. Blais believed in allowing forwards to use their creativity and instincts to make things happen on the ice. He also was a big believer in kids playing pond hockey outdoors so that they could develop those skills without the constraints of a "system". This is the biggest problem with Hakstol and his staff; they are married to the system for better or worse. Honestly, if I wanted to watch stuff like this, I would get Wild season tickets.
Actually, one of the problems UND had last weekend was beating a system. The system that St. Cloud used was to clog the nuetral zone...trap, whatever you want to call it. UND couldn't beat it hence why you never saw them come up ice with speed and numbers. So, bag on systems but St. Cloud used the exact system i believe you are admonishing UND and the Wild. btw, Jaque Lemaire isn't coaching the Wild anymore and they have twice the talent any of his teams did. The Wild emulate the same system Crosby and the Pens use. Also, you're crazy if you think Blais didn't (doesn't) use systems. His system at UND was to attack with pressure and speed and forecheck 2 all the time. It's not that far off from Hak.

anyone could have walked into the ralph this weekend and won two games, including huntsville, army, sacred heart, holy cross,american international....
HAHAHAAA it wasn't good this weekend but please....
-
if you have the puck, don't give it up so easily. UND spent the entire weekend chasing Clown with the puck and UND gave it back so many times when they didn't have too.

Chyzyk must be on a really short leash. Thought he was OK last night. Glad to see Colton back.
took a bad penalty.....
UND has to put in 3 periods of work tonight.
