Jake Brandt just said "...one of UND's elite forwards."

Sioux still winning. Shots now 28-15.

Ditto.

CC cuts deficit in half...shots now 28-14

6-2 Final, Mercyhurst beats Canisus.
-
4-2, 4-2, UND Sweeps. The boys are 3-1 in the weekends following embarrassing games the previous week.

The only problem with it is the audio and video are not synced properly. And before anyone asks, it's not my video. Still worth watching. Adam

That's exactly what I said days ago...Berry should get to the end of the year. If things don't improve, or get worse, his job should scrutinized and weighed against potential replacements.

It's easy to say we almost beat BU, but that year we almost didn't get in either. See how easy this works? On one hand it's ok to say how we barely missed the tournament last year, but on the other fail to mention that we barely made it in the year before despite how well we carried play against a good team. We could have just as easily not got in two years ago and then made it in last year and could have won the whole darn thing. Speculation is just that, speculation. The facts are we made it two years ago, we didn't last year, and this year it's not looking good at the moment. So far, it's seemingly a further regression yet. 3-4 years after a title year at an elite program should be the prime opportunity to go on another deep run as your reloaded recruits are becoming juniors and seniors.

Just because someone wants Berry fired doesn't mean they wanted Hak fired and vice versa. I am very down on Berry at the moment, but don't think he should be fired mid-season. At no time did I state Hakstol should be fired to my knowledge. Speaking for a number of people here, just because someone is being hard on Berry and the program right now doesn't equate to wanting him fired. The actual number of people saying Berry should be fired is probably a lot lower than the "protectors" like you are saying.

Ed Belfour had as many points as Zach Yon and Dixon Bowen combined this season so far (each have one assist). They combine for 30 games played this season to Eddie's 34 in 1986-87.

Ryder Donovan is the epitome of what the Brad Berry era has become. Berry isn't just a coach/recruiter....he's essentially the General Manager of the program. HIs management of the program is so poor to this point there might be irreparable damage done by the time this is all figured out. Berry can coach. He's a softy that the players could talk to. But, that can only work so long before it becomes a problem.

Of course. We're three years removed from a National Championship which means we're reloading any year now, silly. Plus, we outshot them!

This team doesn't own business suits. Those were funeral suits. Old time North Dakota hockey has died.
-
No doubt. Even UND's best teams don't have the skill that this USA had. However, USA played Finland. UND played Canisius.
-
USA's 0-5 on the PP and UND's 0-5 on the PP were not the same thing. It felt like USA could have scored on just about any of them. Movement with the puck, movement without the puck, movement of the puck, great passing, good shots. Just didn't get one in....well they did, but a murderous call brought that one back. UND stands still while attempting to pass the puck around the perimeter, all while getting attacked because no one has the skill to beat a man with the puck. If you have any sort of skill, people can't pressure you because you can beat them positionally and create big-time chances. No one sits back in a box in fear of our PP, they are in total attack mode.
-
Berry has chuckled twice already in this post-game presser. Every word out of his mouth is cliche garbage right now. Absolute crap. Talking about how the team is going to rebound from adversity and it will show for the next three months. What about rebounding tonight?
-
Seattle would be winning if they'd stick to the process and change their name back to the Seasioux.
-
I hate how true that is.
-
Maybe the black is for the funeral, not for business.

You can actually scroll down in the game menu.

The more we lose right now, the faster the change we need will take place. I'm sadly ok with losing.

And that was when clutching and grabbing was worse than it is now.

2013-14 I believe was our worst scoring year since Hak had taken over. The top six forwards from a points standpoint totaled 161 points (65 goals) in 42 games. That's 3.8 ppg and 1.5 gpg. This year our top six forwards from a points standpoint have 47 total points (23 goals) in 18 games. That's 2.6 ppg and 1.2 ppg. 2013-14 was a frustrating year. This year is just awful. The good news in all this is, UND managed to sneak into the tournament that year, came to life a little, and made the Frozen Four (the start of three in a row, with the title coming in the third one).
-
Keep in mind, that's points, not goals. If those were goals, that pace is still probably the worst in who knows how long....probably ever.
