I certainly was getting tired of the last few years of Hak's teams falling flat come post-season time, but it almost seems like some posters on here genuinely want to see Hakstol fail in the NHL to "prove a point" about his time here at UND.

I think Berry is planning on cutting most of the roster and replacing them with some players from the UND intramural teams. Should make for an interesting last few months of the season. Hopefully the new players don't disappoint as much!

Gardner and LJ answered the call with Cags and Schmaltz out. Unfortunately the goalies and some of the dmen laid an egg on a few goals and it cost us a point in the Penrose race. Hopefully tomorrow they come out the same as tonight...and then maintain that level for the next 2 periods.

DU up on UMD 3-2 after 2. UMN beats UW 4-0. Miami beats Omaha 3-1. SCSU slaughters WMU 8-2.

UND wins shootout 1-0. I can't remember if UND has ever won a shootout before....seems they always lose them.

Unfortunately two of our best players for any 3x3 action are in the stands.

Wow. Gardner ties it. Wow.

SOG are 30-19 and losing 5-4. This one is on goalies... Losing this game probably loses the Penrose as well. SCSU has the easier schedule remaining and we can't be pissing away games against the last place team.

Aaahhh! Which one is it?

RPI and QU tie at 2 each. QU might be slipping a bit despite their #1 rank...4 of their last 5 games have gone to OT, with two of those tied opponents being Maine (5 wins this year) and Northeastern (3 wins this year).

Of course QU ties it with 9 sec left in the game. Going to OT.

Now 2-1 RPI with 14min left.

RPI up 1-0 over #1 QU at the end of 2.

Would suck to be without both of them...ouch. http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/3929139-und-hockey-key-players-may-miss-weekend-series

No mention of Cags:

I haven't seen anything yet. Is Media Day still on Wed? If so, maybe we'll hear more tomorrow.

Nice try Maine. That would have been a sweet 2nd loss for QU. I can't believe that Michigan kid only got suspended 2 games for that punch in the OSU game.

It's hard to take an article seriously when the writer can't even spell the word "fire" correctly in the 2nd paragraph.

Haha, I just looked at the boxscore for that game...sog were 49-47 OSU. Almost 100 sog between the teams. It must have been like watching an all-star game with just no physical contact at all by the dmen.

Agreed with that.

It certainly helps his numbers that it doesn't appear that any of the B10 teams can play defense. I've seen so many B10 boxscores with 10+ goals scored. 8-6? That's crazy.

WMU scores a goal with 20sec left to force OT with DU, and then scores again in 3x3 OT to get the extra point. Hopefully WMU will be able to steal some points next weekend too against SCSU.

Scoring is starting to spread around a bit, which is great to see. Omaha, on the other hand, will win or lose based upon how the Taco line does. I didn't notice any other line for them other than Taco/Guentz. Much better effort tonight for UND...defensively limited them much better than last night. Hopefully Cags is ok...

No, Thompson got the nod in goal for them tonight.

I hate Taco. Eff him.
