Do these announcers even KNOW hockey?

Should be our PP.

Still the same old "CC open mike night"

Looks like the boys are settling in. Some decent zone time.

They finally figured out how to put the scoreboard and clock on the screen. Hey Jammer! 1-1

Aaand the PK.

I hope we don't jinx the business suits.

Someone tell the boys they are not on the PK1

Ruh Row! 0-1

Some rotten camera work. Some things never change.

Let's play hockey!

Please, please, please come out hot. We need to go into the break with a good showing.

Well, if we come out as sorry as we have on Friday of late, we will be sunk. We really need a great Friday to buoy our confidence.

I remember my parents taking me to games in the Barn (Winter Sports Building). On cold nights (and weren't they all back then) everybody brought blankets and my fold always brought a thermos of coffee with brandy. There were MANY bottles of schnaps passed around, as I recall. I was too young to imbibe back then.

Now Berry just needs to figure out a way to compel the team to play like they did tonight two nights in a row.

Oh, and soccer fields are way different because of their sheer size and the fact that they do not have boards.

Chicago's original NHL rink was 185x85, as I recall.

Olympic size rinks are great for producing more offense. Lots of space to move the puck around the big D men. NHL rinks promote a more hard nosed game, with more work in the corners. Most college rinks are NHL sized. But rules have evolved in college hockey that has done away with a lot of the hard nosed on the boards corner play. So it is kinda in limbo. I wish they would settle on a size for everybody, and get on with it.

For a lot of reasons. And none of them (in my case) were because of the size of the rink.

We need to get over these dog toss performances on Fridays. That is not UND hockey.

After that first goal at 17 seconds, I thought it was a carbon copy of last night. I was pleasantly pleased to be proven wrong.

A split that quite frankly I did not expect.

Gritty win. But we will take it. We need it after last night!

Damn.

Somebody please explain what happened.
