Ended 31-28 UND

RIT just crushed Clarkson 6-2 for their first win of the season. Clarkson off to a 1-3 start. Need to take care of business out there in both games to avoid a NPI killing.

These three points. You score on 1 or 2 of those PP chances earlier in the game and this game looks entirely different. Homer will want back both those 2 goals. And unfortunately those goals changed the entire game. Work on that PP hard for Clarkson. I still think this UND team is more talented and will go further this season than UMN.

Like clockwork.

It’s a young offense. Gonna take time to develop. They’ll get there.

You didn't say anything the last 3 games when the guys were putting up 6, 5, and 5 goals.

Two posts as well. Man, if our PP could do anything, we'd be in business.

This isn't ticky-tacky penalties, these are just stupid. Quit the undisciplined crap and stop giving them PP chances.

I'd take another Panzer.

Just like last night, UMN scores on their first sog.

UMN starting a different goalie tonight.

This x1000. We’ve seen countless times a complete reversal on game results in a two game series. I’d say it was pretty darn common during the Berry years. We’ll see tonight if things are different with Dane in charge. I’m mainly looking for complete effort again…it’s so early in the season that I wouldn’t be too upset with a loss as long as the team looked like they competed hard and played well. That said - sweep those Gophers!

How did Kermit get returned? Brought back on a road trip, post office, held ransom for six Red Pepper grinders, etc?

Michigan teams of late haven't exactly been known to be strong defensively (there's a reason why Perron transferred there )...once they start actually playing tough teams I think they'll be exposed a bit more. Next week when they play WMU will be a much better barometer of how good they are this year. Same thing with Duluth. UMD's top line has been lights out so far, but UMD's schedule has been anything but difficult. The next two weekends with Duluth will be much different, traveling to both UMN and UND. I'm interested to see how UMD and UND match up in the NCHC opener...with us having last line change, pairing up our best defensive group against their Plante line will be key. If you shut that line down, you're good I'm guessing. Our depth should hopefully be a big benefit.

Agreed. It wasn't horrible. Ice looked a bit iffy with all the bouncy pucks and whiffs. Rickwood quietly leads the team in points right now. Just an excellent overall portal grab.

I'm so glad James came back for his SR season. He's poised to have a great year for us, helping lead the young offense.

SCSU, ASU, and DU collectively trying to mess up NCHC post-season hopes.

So will all their fans on social media, so be careful out there ladies and gents. Of course, if the skate were on the other foot, I'd be pretty annoyed with some of those calls as well.

DU and ASU lose, SCSU going to OT. Man, how bad is Air Force...UST crushing them 9-0.

There's another level for sure. Hopefully it was just jitters for most of the team's big first rivalry game...and they'll be back at it tomorrow.

Go for that sweeeeeppp!

Plus a shorty! Plus a shorty given up.
