Might want to get your eyes checked, as UND was playing some of their best hockey at the end, it’s just that at that point they were already behind the eight ball.

I assume Hedquist was injured last game, as he had saved 28 of 28 shots, and their other goalie finished the game stopping 10 of 11. The other goalie is also playing tonight.

Grayden Slipec was 1st star tonight for Chicago with 2 goals and an assist with the absence of Celibrini. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for next year when he starts getting more ice time.

So what Dallas should do is to wait a second after Kaprisov gets rid of the puck and absolutely blow him up like Dumba did to Pavelski, and Foligno did to Robertson. Better chance at injury if they do that, so maybe they should change their philosophy instead of reacting to their stars being targeted.

That is what it is becoming in the NHL, you touch our star like Dumba late hit on Pavelski and Foligno late hit on Robertson, and then there is retaliation. All of those hits Kleven would have been suspended for in college.

That's what happens when you have to hustle to get in under the deadline.

Actually feel sorry for people that need to take a negative and pessimistic slant on everything. How sad it would be to go through life not recognizing the many positives, especially after the horrible Covid years.

Edmonton traded Barrie in the Ekholm trade.

We have had a lot of other players over the years, but foothold was a poor choice of words. I should have said get our foot back in the door.

...but in his interview last month he said his favorite college team was the Bulldogs, so I think it is a good thing Berry clinched this deal, as lately guys like Roth and Shaugabay have turned Warroad into somewhat of a neutral ground. Needed to get a foothold back in there.

McDavid - EDM Draisaitl - EDM Nugent Hopkins - EDM Pastrnak - BOS Marchand - BOS MaKinnon - COL Orlov - BOS McAvoy - BOS Nurse - EDM Makar - COL

I believe that is the 18U prep team that is the varsity.

So when is he set to attend UMD? Don’t know if we have room this year.

Looks like Berry did a good job, since he said his favorite college team was the Bulldogs.

I don’t believe in insane expectations.

With Perron, Blake, McLaughlin, we probably need some more finishers that can take advantage of their passing ability, if indeed they are around that long. Can always use guys that aren’t afraid to shoot, and can finish.

Yeah, that worked well when you said that the beginning of last year.

Zmolek, Wiebe and Benoit are bigger than Frisch, Johnson and Bast, and Komzak and Kleven are pretty similar.

Looking back, we don’t score a ton of short handed goals, probably about 3 a year. If we have defensemen that are all right with being aggressive under certain circumstances, I think we double that next year, and James could get 2-3 of those. Surprisingly, Minnesota and Michigan didn’t score many short handed either, while St. Cloud had 8.

Wouldn’t mind Livanavage and Zmolek growing together for down the road though, as it sounds like Pehrson could work with either pairing if Pyke is going to be asked to provide some offense.

Definitely not a sophomore, as with Strathmann you would have 7 defenseman for the following two seasons, how do you make room for a Hensler, Felicio, and the already committed McInnis? How many more years can Ausmus play juniors? What younger portal would want to come in trying to crack that lineup.

Steal someone from Wisconsin, they’re no gentlemen.

This really doesn’t do anything unless it works out. The guy we got was most likely not invited back to Michigan. It’s exciting that it looks like he fills a need, but many were super excited when we got Farmer too, and not everyone was happy with him.

On paper that is certainly the case. As we all know, the chemistry of the team next year and how they come together will tell the tale.
