    We didn't lose focus nearly as much as DU. At that time.

    Except that early losses to teams they should have beaten has been a problem, though not last year.

    If there is any recruiting value in it, they should schedule them. I don't know whether there is.

    He knows how to screen a goalie and needs to be on a line with at least one sniper to take advantage of that.

    Just under 6 months to puck drop. Wooo hooo! Game thread? Not much in my life between now and then.

    Great; now they all know another of my weak spots? I'm transferring my file to Wilbur. I went to you to deal with my gf trauma, and now I gotta go to Wilbur to deal with this. Plus, with him, you just eat popcorn and watch old westerns, and you get to play table top-hockey if you stay on your meds between appointments.

    Sic is there so often he has all the wall art and floor tile layout memorized.

    ZPar represents to me the kind of player who, when you say "net presence," shows that doesn't have to mean big banger who will put up big penalty minutes. His stick skills were his bread and butter, but a shytload of his goals came from just being around the net. Stick skills, as I said, plus first-rate anticipation skills and toughness. It helps, but you don't have to be big to be big around the net.

    Hak's time at HC could not be fairly described as a period of decline. His record was exceptional, even compared to Gino and Dean. He didn't win a banner, and that is the only metric some fans apply, but he was one the best program coaches UND has had.

    They have a serious problem though--can't win when it counts, despite all that talent. There must be a goat curse or something in there somewhere. That or they just refuse to play a full 60.

    2024 Frozen Four

    What specifically is the problem "from the neck up?" It's a good catchall phrase, but what exactly are we talking about, other than they haven't been winning in the NCAAs?

    Almost as dominant as between '69 and '79.

    Maybe I just have higher expectations of a program like ours, which used to be considered the best or at least one of. Now we are content beating our rivals because they lose their best talent? We used to say, "Bring your best and be ready to lose." I hope the players and staff haven't lowered their standards like we have here.

    What round was G Johnson drafted? It was Philly, I think.

    What is "old fashioned UND playoff hockey" exactly, assuming it is something other than just better results?
