Dane in charge of PK. Karl in charge of PP.

Definitely not this year, from the looks of things.

Love it. We NEVER lose when we wear black. Except for the 5-6 losses earlier this season.

Is Miami going to lose every single NCHC game this year?

Yep, we'll be playing the role of slump-buster for CC next weekend too!

Agreed. Unfortunate.

I've given up trying to understand the line combos. Strinden and Schmaltz should be swapped. Hobie should be in net after the last couple weeks performance comparison between him and TJ. If Jammer was gonna be sat, it should've been after his stupid 5min penalty Sat against ASU that gave them 2 PPGs.

Ouch.

Oh man! I'm just hoping we hold SCSU to less than 3 PPGs tonight.

That was nice. He doesn’t post much any longer.

Good episode of Through These Doors that focuses on UND Equipment Manager Dan Johansson and his battle with anxiety.

OSU adds one more, beats MSU 4-2. That win jumps OSU up to 8 in the PWR. B10 looking strong for the tourney right now...possibly 4-5 teams in: 2 MSU 3 UMN 8 OSU 12 UM 16 UW (just outside the line, and also with a losing record) Hockey East with 7 in the top 15. NCHC with only 3 in top 15. One ECAC in top 15 but no AHA or CCHA.

#11 OSU up 3-2 on #2 MSU with 10min left.

To me it seems like this is just the tip of the iceberg with the CHL commits. Not many of the "major" schools have signed CHL commits...and not many of the CHL players already committed have been the really high end talent. I think once the season is over we'll see more of the high end talent from the CHL signing with the upper tier NCAA programs. We just have to hope that UND is amongst those teams landing those players...

Hopefully the refs don't drop the puck slightly favoring the UND players this weekend. Also, hopefully the stat keepers in St Cloud remember to count the correct number of shots for each team. We certainly don't want SCSU ass. coach Enga to get his panties in a twist again.

Yes! Especially this weekend. We always have issues with the SCSU PP on the big sheet, and I'm guessing that will be even more amplified this weekend with how horrid our PK has been this year.

For sure. Even if they go on an ok run at the end and win a couple games that they shouldn't...those BSU & Cornell games are gonna haunt them.

What about the bye week...fresh bodies, fresh outlook? They'll come out great on Friday night, right? Sadly, we've seen this song and dance before. Hopefully the big ice gives Perron and James some room to fly. I don't think any result would surprise me, aside from a UND sweep.

Which game did we differ on? I have them 4-8 to finish. 1-1 at SCSU 1-1 CC 0-2 at DU 1-1 UMD 0-2 at WMU 1-1 UNO

Ha. I assume they’ll win a couple games just to give us some hope of a turnaround. Only to get swept the next series.

That'd be my vote as well. I'd even be ok with Hedquist, Heil, and Huson. Tell Hedquist that the net is his and give Heil some starts here and there to get his feet wet. Triple H leading us in net.

Updated as of 1/26 Bumgarner has been out a few games due to illness. Heil gets the first shutout of his USHL career. Zellers continues to lead USHL in both goals and pts/gm by good margins (27g, 2nd has 23 and 1.50pts/gm, 2nd has 1.25) USHL (Forwards) Klee (Muskegon) - '05: 36gp - 13g/17a Pilgrim (Tri-City) - '06: 35gp - 4g/15a Schultz (Chicago) - '06: 33gp - 10g/14a Zellers (Green Bay) - '06: 28gp - 27g/15a O'Neill (NTDP U18) - '07: 38gp - 5g/7a Sanderson (Muskegon) - '07: 27gp - 3g/3a Bumgarner (Fargo) - '08: 35gp - 5g/4a USHL (Defensemen) Laurila (Fargo) - '06: 33gp - 4g/22a Lindberg (NTDP U18) - '07: 33gp - 0g/5a USHL (Goalies) Heil (Madison) - '06: 18gp - .891 / 2.88 (12-5-1) Other Simpson - MN HS - '07: 20gp - 26g/19a Jundt - SF Power 16U - '08: 29gp - 18g/19a McKamey - BCHL - '09: 35gp - 7g/10a

Up to 26 now! Season saved!
