SOG 5-5

UMD back on the PP

In net or behind the bench?

Good call, that's exactly what happened on UMD's tying goal. Thome was way out of the net.

That's great news. Now the only question would be if UND's season gets extended long enough to have him playing again.

UW's recruiting class for next season is loaded. That said, I could see it playing out similar to BU's recent stellar classes. Uber talented but too young. After not winning a natty next season at UW, Turcotte and Caufield bolt for pros after their frosh seasons. Donovan is a tough one. He's certainly not lighting up HS hockey like many predicted he would for his SR season. I'd rather have him on the roster than our recent commit due to his higher ceiling, but I agree with scpa0305 that I don't see him doing much in NCAA until at least his JR/SR seasons.

I like the optimism, but that's a longshot anyway, and now even more with Scheel out.

He was injured. When he wasn't injured, he got lit up. That's why he rarely played...and eventually transferred. And what are the odds, his stats certainly haven't improved at UNO. Man, I'd say this team's issues have a heck of a lot more to do with inconsistent play and horrendous special teams rather than figuring out if Tomek and Wilkie transferred due to locker room issues...but what do I know?

I can't believe that they haven't taken that article down. Still humorous after all these years. The curse of the dynasty article!

If this team makes it to a regional, I would be shocked. The only way I see them making the NCAA's is if they win the NCHC tourney. And to do that they'd have to win 2 of 3 against a better team on the road (ouch) and then win two more games against better teams at the Xcel. They have shown that they can play with anyone (including teams much higher than them in standings/PWR), but hoping for 4 wins in two weekends against better opponents would be a tough one for this inconsistent team IMO. That said, I'd love to be proven wrong by this team.

Agreed. First time for me since the first season at the new Ralph (01/02). Although that team could still score some goals from time to time.

3x3 goal for DU One point for UND on the weekend

It's been a rough season.

That was a heck of a move.

Crap, UND's lone goal tonight got disallowed. Well, I guess we can all stop watching the game.

That's normal hockey. We're talking UND Hockey 19/20. Pile of shots = 1 goal for the game.

I may be crazy, but it looked like Smith got tackled into the goalie? Regardless, DU PP.

Familiar script to last night. Wouldn't be surprised to see DU go up 2 here shortly but then UND pile on a bunch of shots.

Unfortunately for Berry, he's not allowed to play Bowen for the next game since that's his 3rd game misconduct...so that equals a game suspension.

Dixon Bowen will be out for the first WMU game.

Yep.

And now Gardner to the box. WTF. 5x3 for DU for 2min.

5min major. God this team is hard to watch. Nonstop killing their chances.

Canisius loses 5-3 to Mercyhurst tonight...Mercyhurst somehow scored 5 goals on 23 shots. I'm not sure how that's possible against those stud Canisius goalies.
