Wow. James 2-1

SOG 18-4 at the halfway point of the game. 4 shots on goal thru 30 minutes and none so far this period. WTF.

Livanavage hurt after a blocked shot. Probably need him back.

Good time for a WMU PP. They were already controlling without much pushback.

It would have been 6 but they didn't get a recorded shot on either of their breakaways.

Faceoffs 12-4 WMU...dang.

SOG 11-4 WMU after 1 Maybe UND was the team out late partying last night?

Strinden breakaway. Nothing. James breakaway. Nothing. Now a WMU PP. Yep.

They all coming back to UND via the portal?

Laurila has really done well with adding some offense to his game this year. Should be a good addition to our blueline next season.

At least we know that Berry won't have those options on the PP next season. Assuming Berry is around next season. So hopefully guys like Boisvert, Perron, and James can stick around and get slotted into those roles.

I'd like to see WMU have a Penrose hangover tomorrow. But I'm guessing we'll see them just win their 4th game against us this season instead.

Yes Heck of a snipe from Boisvert. Kid can certainly pick his spots. 4-3

Man is our PK weak. This is like the REA WMU series all over again.

Western is lucky that our PP is not very good unless we're playing UMD.

WMU coach definitely deserves Coach of the Year this year...the amount of firepower that they lose each offseason in their forward group is crazy and for them to keep coming back and reloading is pretty impressive. Of course, landing Bump last year was a huge part of that for this year. But the group of forwards that have gone thru that team over the last 2-3 seasons is pretty crazy.

...speaking of ready to sign...

I love that he's breaking out lately. Although that makes me guess that he'll be more willing to sign at season's end.

Dump and let the other team chase it to get possession. Not to be confused with dump and chase.

Black NoDaks is what it should be. Keep the streak going.

Sad for this team, but true.

Does he just cherry pick all game long? I've never actually seen him play...so serious question.

Also, can you imagine how long that game took just due to the goal announcements? Announcing another goal every 1.5 minutes or so. Dang, it would have just dragged on.

Ha, yes...my brain was thinking OHL to "narrow it down", but my hands typed CHL.

Schloss mentioned on his podcast that he was hearing rumblings of a recruit from the CHL for us. Not sure if that narrows it down at all...
