  1. Just because you’ve done far worse doesn’t mean you couldn’t do far better, gf. Your game is off.
  2. What does “xG” mean?
  3. He was pretty amazing at backcheck steals.
  4. And though he is no Oshie, he is surprisingly strong on his feet with the puck--unless it's a tripping situation, and he knows how to sell that. Quite unlike Schmaltz, who can be taken off the puck fairly easily. And I like Schmaltz for what he does.
  5. Who are the biggest risks to leave early?
  6. Let’s never forget our ace in the hole netminder: Wilbur.
  7. Seems to this poster you are a fan of losing so you can play your bit. But that is probably inaccurate, and you really are eager to discuss the game of hockey rather than just bad outcomes. We’re all UND fans, though, and just like seeing them win, regardless how we go about being a fan, so its all good. I guess I’m one of those people who is content being a mediocre fan and not a champion fan.
  8. Then again, Berry is roundly criticized for being inflexible on line combinations. It’s a culture thing.
  9. That unpredictability is part of what makes college hockey so good, IMO.

    OK, makes sense

    NCHC Playoffs

    Why move seats?
  12. Paid a little visit to The Ledge yesterday. Pretty crowded. Fans with a dazed, desperate look, some moaning “I don’t deserve this” and “We used to be elite!” There were some vacant spaces along the outside edge, suggesting some may have already jumped, though I was afraid to lean out and look for splat marks below. It was pretty obvious that gf, who has been a full time resident since 5 years after Hak became HC, and his business, Gfhockey Ledge Properties, are benefitting from the recent sweeps by CC and Omaha. They must have rebuilt the elevators, because they were reportedly able to fill large areas of the Ledge this weekend in the time it takes to play one period of hockey. Not sure I’d want to go back up there if the boys lose to Miami this weekend. Many of those up there now will be gone, and not because they took the “down” elevator.
  13. If OSU beats UW today, how much, if any, does that hurt UND PW?’
  14. What were the blocked shot numbers last night. I wouldn’t be shocked or even too critical if they were down.
  15. Gf is a quitter who only fills his lungs when UND loses. Just my opinion based on these threads. I’m sure I would think differently if I met him in person.
  16. Those first 3 lines are wicked good, actually. Been a while since we’ve (I’ve) seen that much scoring punch spread across three lines. And the 4th isn’t chopped liver.
  17. Few would probably agree with me, but as long as we keep a regional 1 seed, I have no problem with us getting spanked by CC. Even very good teams (of which UND is one) need to reminded now and then how much concentration and hard work it takes to win this time of year, to say nothing of winning 4 in a row against the best teams in the country.
  18. Wonder which coach/alum was primarily responsible for spotting and recruiting Gaber. He wasn’t heavily recruited, as I recall.
  19. A lot of mental defect from heavy metal exposure.
  20. All 4 rows will be tough to hoe this year. Need Ludwig to be on and catch a few breaks. They’ll be ready to play, and so will the other guys.
  21. Quite a bit of thought went into that, as is Sic's habit. I looked at unis and cheerleaders.
  22. The drunk thing is just a bit. I gotta admit, though, I don't know that for sure.
  23. Ditto How much boosted self esteem do you get if you copy another’s list?
  24. Just wait. I watched Alan Hangsleben and Jim Cahoon as a student in 1971. Enjoying the pleasure of college hockey goes way, way beyond banner count.
