That's the way I saw it too. Just unfortunate that it proved to be a 3-goal stretch, though I think the first goal would have fallen within the 2 minute minor, wouldn't it? And I get those who read the rule by the letter and conclude the ref had no choice. Just looked like the wrong call to me. But given the way the gophs like to go down all the time, can't say they didn't have a bad call coming. Wish we played them more.

UND dominated more Friday than they did Sat 5x5. I'd say UM probably had the edge Sat 5x5. But yeah, a nice win. It looked to me that the biggest difference in the two nights, other than the 3-goal major, was the way we found shooting lanes from the point. I'm sure they talked about being smarter and more patient after Friday, and it showed.

Our base would be screaming about that call. I"ll take it though.

that's what's strange about being a fan and not a player. They probably played better last night--just got some breaks tonight. Different outcome but there was a lot to feel good about after last night's game.

You could tell the boys were coached on being more patient to pick their shot lanes from the blue line tonight. Huge difference.

Right. It was an easy call

An old trend: score a goal, take a penalty

this squad put up a very good effort against a talented team, and they could have won with a bounce or two. We knew they would have to win with hustle and team contribution, and that's just what we saw. Given who is on the roster, I was pleased. A of hockey ahead. Real anxious to see if we can carry this much play against Cloud and Denver. And score, of course.

Wow. Team is anything but lifeless.

Nobody can say this team isn't hustling.

I like all this advice us slobs have to give.

Boys need to show a little more discipline. This game could get away from them if they keep going into the box.

More PP time.

Pay a few bucks and watch, M.

Boys played well that period. Could have been 3-1. Mittlestadt timed that little pass to Pitlick perfectly.

I like having the gophs as a rival, going all the way back to hating on Bill Butters in the old barn. That's not to say you can't go out on your deck and tell by the smell that they're in town.

Hot place in early 70s. Wasn't there a place in EGF at around that time called the Riverbend which often had two bands playing?

Whiteys, Frenchy's, Peanut bar at the Ho

Playing your first game against the gophers is a tough assignment.

All valid criticisms. I like that they found a way to win.

I liked him a lot.

Dang. He was my blue collar man

Gornall gets the hatty tonight.

This team just isn't fulfilling Ogie's needs. Is there a trade deadline?

I guess burd needs to work on his delivery.
