Personally, I’m not sure if we don’t score as much because lack of talent, but because they don’t take as many risks as other teams. Even last night, Berry talked about the goal Miami had as Adams not realizing the situation and looking for offense. He constantly talks about that, and making mistakes by “chasing the game”. Perhaps that is why they allow so few shots on goal consistently. Now if you don’t win with that you open yourself up to a lot of criticism for playing a boring brand of hockey. As long as you are winning, things are great, if you lose, well ask Mike Eaves about that.

There have been numerous other games where the offense disappears in the second half after adjustments were made. Seems once they see Rudy won’t change, they attack accordingly.

So, if we win next week and don’t make the playoffs, does Chaves give Bubba an ultimatum on Rudy?

Thought there was a possibility he could come next year.

That is Paul Ralston's take on it. Huge improvement according to him. But he was also the same one talking about injuries last year. I agree that injuries were a huge thing to overcome last year, but going into the year the expectation was not only a home playoff game, but actually a bye. Why then, when you get all those players back for this season should the expectation be lowered to surpass the record you had when injuries were the byword? If anything, the expectation should be even higher because you get most of the injured players back and have also added depth from guys that got to play a lot more than they would have otherwise.

PJ Fleck just fired his defensive coordinator. The question is does Bubba have it in him to make the moves necessary to move the program forward?

Were they here Friday or Saturday, or both?

Why not Amalie Arena in Tampa again?

If you want interaction, go to an away game. Frankly, I am glad I didn’t have to deal with more gopher fans. Had enough bad experiences on road trips to Minneapolis to last a lifetime!

He had 2 goals 3 assists today, to take over the BCHL lead in goals and points.

Penalty 7, too many men. I am sure if the roles were reversed we wouldn’t be happy, but we also would be saying how stupid the penalties were. Cross checking Mismash into the net was just dumb and almost daring the ref to call it that late in the game.

Thought Hennessey said he was going to commit to UND but Grant Standbrook made a visit to his house and got him to change his mind. With James Patrick being a high NHL draft pick, maybe they used the “you could be the man” philosophy with him.

What about him playing against Montana when the game was well in hand?

But they got Oliver Wahlstrom and BU has multiple 1st round draft picks. Where are those guys that always compare us to them now?

Tech throttled Wisconsin one night, then got it handed to them the next. UND has to be ready for a much better effort on Saturday.

How about we try filling our arena against a rival again. The number of empty seats, especially in the student section is becoming concerning. Personally, in conjunction with giving away $1000 to fans with perfect attendance this year, they should start a full list of people with perfect attendance and give them priority for games like Nashville. Don’t wait until the arena starts to resemble the half empty Mariucci.

Absolutely huge game tomorrow night. If they can go 3-0 against the Big Ten, it will help big time down the road. A loss hurts a lot because you will be splitting at home against a team that most likely isn’t going to be in the mix at the end. Let’s get that same relentless attitude we’ve had the past few games.

Don't doubt more fans will go, I just don't see 20,000 UND fans wanting to go. I'm guessing there will be at least some empty seats.

Archie wore 15 and 21, and Sherven wore 11 and 7. Couple other big names Hrkac and Christian also wore 2 numbers; 7 & 21 and 7 & 13 respectively.

Don't see those kind of numbers at all. There were tons of people trying to sell their tickets before the Las Vegas game, and many of them had to keep decreasing their prices. People talk high prices for the game, but the game price was a very small cost in the scheme of things when traveling to Vegas, especially since the airlines around the area jacked their prices.

From left, it looks like Rick Zombo's half face, above left is Dan Brennan, Bill Whittset, Dusty Carroll, Cary Eades, Archie, James Patrick, Dave Donnelly, Dave Tippett, then Gord Sherven and Palmiscno on the bottom. Two of these players wore two different numbers in their careers, can you name them and the numbers they wore?

Don't see that happening unless Penn State brings 5000 plus fans.

Is it possible to have a recruit visit the destination game, or do they have to visit the campus on their official visit? Don't know how any recruit could not have been impressed with the atmosphere at the game in Vegas last weekend.

Never thought of that, you are probably dead on!

Says a guy that goes with "Boozehound" to represent. Way to represent the Minnesota fan base.
