Did anyone else think Miami was offsides an awful lot last night? Strange to see so much of that kind of timing mistake the last games of the season.

He looked pretty intense after they went by the bench following his goal

I thought Miami's play by play guy were OK

Ausmus was standing around on that sequence

Was gonna ask how long til they score or we take a penalty, but . . .

I've wondered that many times too, Ox. We score and commit a turnover or penalty.

Notorious fun-ruiner that you are, you would certainly know.

Yes, and it will be important to the seniors. But there will not be as much urgency as we have.

yeah, that part of their game stunk tonight.

Miami has little to play for tomorrow night, while we are fighting for our lives. Should mean something.

Came late. Boeser?

territorial dominance

Jost takes this?

I don't think it's an either/or question. I have no complaints about Cam's play--he has kept us in games. And there's not question our D is nowhere near what it was last year. That was a generational team defense. We are turnover prone, and both D and forwards have missed assignments in front of the net. it's certainly not just the Dmen who have been guilty. I'm just saying this team will often do a decent job of keeping the play on the perimeter for most of the game only to give up the puck in transition leading to a goal.

I think they have generally played pretty well on D, it's just that they are prone to mistakes that have led to a turnover goal or two per game. It's like factoring in that one softie per game Macintyre was often guilty of .

Probably right

Cam is going to have to be at his best this weekend. We just make too many mistakes in our own end for us to win any other way. Scoring 5 or 6 would do the trick too, of course, but that's not likely to happen twice. One thing you can bet on: if we do not sweep, a lot of fans will insist that the team did not want it badly enough.

true.

It sure seems like both the Wild and the Caps are due.

They may have been fun, but they did not help us win. This isn't 1985.

No big deal for their fans as long as they're registered on GPL. They don't actually go to games either.

Too bad. Lumberjack hockey in the Lumberdome was a good thing for a long time.

Why do you ask that, cberkas?

I think UND should at least consider a head coach triumverate, kind of like what UW has in place. Thinking Wilbur, Mafia, and Goon. Wilbur can coach the loonies between the pipes. There will be beer probably.

I don't know. He's delivering pizza these days, so probably not a lot of coin to spend on hookers and blow.
