Yeah certainly has been this teams achilles heel lately. Need to keep rolling with how they're playing. SOG 10-6 UND UND had the better of the quality chances too.

I feel like Zak's playing style is one that could be utilized anywhere in the lineup. He's fast, relentless, plays hard/tough, and has some skill. That "4th" line will definitely get their fair share of playing time.

Great TTD episode that recaps senior night as well. "This is a place you don't want to leave early." - Dylan James

Nice article from Schloss on Emery. Also talks about Akil Adams, UND's first Black player who played at UND from 92-94. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/as-e-j-emery-becomes-a-campus-favorite-he-reaches-out-to-unds-first-black-player Would love to see him come back for a third year and help lead the defensive group, especially if Liver and Wiebe both turn pro.

Looks like UND beat out MSU, UST, and UMD for Scott's services. Also sounds like UND had some recruiting help with his U17 teammate Thoreson, as they are good friends.

Outshot 39-15 but still won. Certainly never cheer for a UMN win, but that should help UND. Even brings #2 overall within reach for UND if they take care of business the next few weeks.

We are loading up on dmen. D-corps looking very strong for years to come. Now just need another elite forward or two.

A different Carson just committed. Welcome aboard to Carson Scott from the NDTP!

He actually just turned 14yo. His older bro Reid plays for Everett in the WHL.

All the NCHC tie-breaker info for the Penrose: https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/10-things-to-know-heading-into-the-nchcs-final-weekend Both UND and WMU hold the tiebreaker over DU, so DU could still tie for the Penrose, but either UND or WMU will get the #1 seed for the NCHC tourney. Just win on Friday and make it easy.

Looks like we did a series at Lawson in 96/97, then they came to the Ralph in 97/98. So the X regional in 2012 was the 5th meeting. Still, not a lot of history there. https://www.collegehockeynews.com/schedules/?search=1&teamID=40&oppID=57&year_min=19001901

I'd be ok watching CC win another title if UND is out of the picture that year. It's been forever for them, and from my interactions with CC fans, they seem like pretty reasonable folk.

Thanks for posting that. I don't think I've seen the video ever posted.

This. Keep the politics out, please.

For whatever reason, the WMU student section heckles whatever opposing player is wearing #4.

Liver gets a hatty and totally ticks off the WMU student section due to his number.

From what I've watched, they are not as good as last year. But they are still very good and could certainly go on a run. They've improved as the season has progressed. Five of their eight losses happened in the first two months of the season. Last year they just dominated teams. Bump would get on the ice and just take over. Their two JR transfers Wisdom and Whitelaw have been great for them this year helping take over some scoring.

If anything, there's less injury risk with all that extra open ice.

Yes for sure. And if UND wins the league, would we rather face UNO or ASU in the first round? ASU has the better top line, for sure.

I’m hoping ASU pulls off an upset on Friday to eliminate DU right off the bat.

1 to clinch a share of it, 2 to clinch it outright.

Huge huge series for both teams. Both fighting for both the Penrose and to retain/solidify their #1 seeds in the NPI. Will probably the best team that UND has faced all season, and it comes on the last weekend of the regular season. Should be a doozy!

I'm interested to see how UND matches up against WMU this year. Last year it wasn't close unfortunately. I'd guess that there's a good chance we'll see them later in the NCHC tourney as well. For the NCAA, I think Mich, MSU, WMU, and DU are the main teams that I hope UND avoids in regionals.

Not a thing.
