Yeah, still expected Miami to be stronger than LIU. LIU has three wins this season. Those three wins were against Assumption, Post, and St. Anselm. I can't believe wins over those programs would even count in their record, but who knows.

What the heck.

Couple of powerhouses battling there. They were #58 and #59 in the PWR before the game.

Wish Constantini was back too, he's been playing really well too. Berry said another week and he should be back.

https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/hockey/7297086-Jake-Sanderson-expected-back-against-Minnesota-two-others-remain-out Sanderson and Montgomery will both be available to play this weekend. Kunz and Constantini both still going to be out of the lineup. Gophers will have a full lineup. Lucius and Cruikshank both recently came back from injuries and can play this weekend.

I was just going off the CHN standings page: https://www.collegehockeynews.com/reports/standings.php They list PSU as playing 5 B10 games with 0 points. They must not have it fully updated yet.

On the flipside, PSU is winless against B10 opponents, and they still beat us. Doh!

Add both games up for NCHC points earned and who wins coaching wise.

Quinnipiac has played 14 games so far, and still their lone loss is to UND. That'll continue to help UND's PWR throughout the season.

For sure, that's the big key now.

Side thought. It appears that GFHockey only posts when his team is winning. Did Sandelin get out-coached tonight?

Wow! Did not expect that after last night and with how shorthanded they were. Very impressive and I couldn't be happier that the team proved me wrong!

Man, WMU is schooling SCSU this weekend. Didn't expect that.

As a former elite goalie, you can bet your life that Wilbur is an expert!

Playing UMD, never fails.

after 2.

They're like a much more talented BSU team.

Great save by Driscoll followed by a great scoring chance for UND. That would have been a nice one.

I love how UMD gets a PP out of that. Should have been UMD goalie interference, UND cross-checking, then UMD cross-checking (after the whistle).

Not much new there, unfortunately.

I thought Budy would have progressed further with this being his 2nd year here. He's down on the fourth line and Kunz is injured. And you have to keep the 3rd line together (and hope that Jammer doesn't take any majors to get kicked out again).

Right. Seems simple enough, just a bit harder when the embellishment begins.

Portz (with one career point and no goals) up on the 2nd line.

Same group as last night. So no Sanderson. I'm not feeling it. Without JS, I wouldn't be surprised with a similar result to last night. Hopefully the boys can prove me wrong. Hopefully all the injured and sick players can be back by next weekend...this is a tough stretch with good opponents, made even tougher by being shorthanded.
