Michigan teams of late haven't exactly been known to be strong defensively (there's a reason why Perron transferred there )...once they start actually playing tough teams I think they'll be exposed a bit more. Next week when they play WMU will be a much better barometer of how good they are this year. Same thing with Duluth. UMD's top line has been lights out so far, but UMD's schedule has been anything but difficult. The next two weekends with Duluth will be much different, traveling to both UMN and UND. I'm interested to see how UMD and UND match up in the NCHC opener...with us having last line change, pairing up our best defensive group against their Plante line will be key. If you shut that line down, you're good I'm guessing. Our depth should hopefully be a big benefit.

Agreed. It wasn't horrible. Ice looked a bit iffy with all the bouncy pucks and whiffs. Rickwood quietly leads the team in points right now. Just an excellent overall portal grab.

I'm so glad James came back for his SR season. He's poised to have a great year for us, helping lead the young offense.

SCSU, ASU, and DU collectively trying to mess up NCHC post-season hopes.

So will all their fans on social media, so be careful out there ladies and gents. Of course, if the skate were on the other foot, I'd be pretty annoyed with some of those calls as well.

DU and ASU lose, SCSU going to OT. Man, how bad is Air Force...UST crushing them 9-0.

There's another level for sure. Hopefully it was just jitters for most of the team's big first rivalry game...and they'll be back at it tomorrow.

Go for that sweeeeeppp!

Plus a shorty! Plus a shorty given up.

Yep, DU loses to Lindenwood. Ouch, that's an NPI killer right there. Good thing UMD, WMU, and CC won

And DU losing to Lindenwood, 3-2 with only a minute left.

He was supposed to be their next big offensive dman. We'll see how he develops but so far hasn't panned out, for sure. He sure had a monster last year in the USHL.

James + Emery = 4 goals tonight...they came to play!

PSU barely survives the scare, beats LIU 5-4 in OT

In Sioux90 we trust!

Nice. And CC beats NMU in OT!

No the 10th goal for Mich in the game.

Mich beats RMU 10-2 and building up some bad karma with running up the score. UND traitor Perron scores the 10th goal with less than 30sec left. Sounds about right.

Now UMD up 5-2 on BSU Max Plante with 4pts so far. Kid is gonna light it up this year.

Lindenwood up 1-0 on DU CC and NMU tied at 1 UMD up 3-2 on BSU

Yeah clean up some passing and defensive coverage and I like their chances.
