Bases full, no outs! Cmon, knock em in.

Gotta make something happen here.

https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/10-things-to-know-about-unds-hockey-scrimmage Hopefully neither Emerson or Kunz are out long term: Line 1A looks to be starting with Perron/Berg/Gaber. Schmaltz moved to wing on Line 1B for Schmaltz/OMac/Blake:

Vid of Perron's shootout winner, then the fireworks I'm assuming.

Looks like there was a shootout

Not sure yet if this helps or hurts us in the PWR.

Scrimmage ends in a 2-2 tie. Ness, Wiebe, and Gaber x2 (both 3-on-3) with the goals.

Pyke has the Go-Pro camera mount on his helmet.

Schlossman responded that Emerson isn't injured, he's just out with an illness.

Wow. Can't fix that amount of stupid.

Yeah hopefully. Haven't heard anything mentioned about him being injured to start the season.

Perron-Berg-Gaber Owen & Blake Those two lines could do very well. And then James on a 3rd scoring line to create a mismatch against any other teams 3/4 line.

Perron

CHN ranked their top 10 recruiting classes for this year: https://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2023/10/02_CHNs-Top-10-Recruiting-Classes.php UND is listed as a "honorable mention" and only brings up Perron & Livanavage. I would take our class over a couple of those in the Top 10, especially when you consider that they didn't even mention Wiebe, Emerson, Hedquist, or Benoit.

I would bet that UND has a better shot at winning the league than UMD does at finishing third or higher.

Wonder how close the Sens are gonna cut this one before the season starts? https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/gap-widens-between-senators-shane-pinto-in-contract-talks/

I always thought Ben Blood should have gotten in more fights.

Someone on here must be going to this scrimmage. They can live-stream it for the rest of us folks that are out of towners.

Someone get this scrimmage streamed on NCHC.TV!

Next year's BU team could make some history in having the #1 and #2 pick on their team from the next draft. That'd be pretty impressive for college hockey. I'm guessing Celebrini would play 2 years at BU even if selected #1 overall, simply due to his age. I think I read that he's the youngest player in college hockey this season.
