One could expect 9 and 22 to not be 200 foot college players right away in their first year. 17 you should expect that. Call me crazy but watching our centers so far and going with @The Sicatoka getter setter scorer concept....21 9 17. Could then go 18 22 10. Then 8 26 20. 29 27 19/28. 21 has the speed and skill IMO to potentially play with those two plus he has a physical and a defensive presence 22 doesn't give you.

O/U on NODAK jerseys Friday?

Spicer goal....no. Johnson start....no. "Culture".....yes (too many times) 28 in a suit.....I laugh at this silliness. No but extra skater. Have to go back to DeRidder Friday. Lineups will be basically the same as usual cause that is what this season has become. Doing the same thing over and over yet expecting different results. Split. Good guys Saturday.

LeFleur wants a word with you.......

CHI sucks......GB isn't going to be any better next season......DET will be better. MINN still best 55 player talent top to bottom in the division. Too early to hit the RESET button.

Exactly. The square peg hasn't fit in the round hole at this point for BB. Can't roll out the same lines and pairings and expect different in game results. Maybe 10 needs a new look on a different line. Same for 17. Get the draft picks on the ice. They were drafted for a reason. Coach them up and develop them the rest of this season.

9 8 10......17 22 26....21 20 18....other line mix and match but 29 needs to be in the mix.

15 back for next season would be asking a lot of him but would make next year's team markedly better.

Two new goalies then have to potentially replace 6, 18, 29 and 26 to the portal plus the departing portal transfers, grad students, seniors and early pro departures. This isn’t your parents UND hockey program.

Up 5-2......27 comes up ice on the PK. Brings it across the blue line into the offensive zone. Should have just dump it in. Instead tries to plays it back to the middle to a trailing teammate. Turnover.....WMU transitions the other way and seconds later they get a PK goal. It completely snow balled from there. That one play didn't lose the game but it totally flipped the momentum.

.867 Dead last in the nation

29 and 21 played well in very limited minutes. 26 and 18 need to back in the lineup moving forward. As bad as our D was tonight 6 needs ice time too. Those 5 are the future of this team. I'm guessing a couple will bolt if BB doesn't stop the square peg in round hole lineup stuff. Get these 5 ice time starting next weekend vs UMD. .....DeRidder has to get the start. He's struggled but he's the only one of the 3 that can potentially put 3 solid periods together. As far as 9 22 17 I like that line but.......try 9 8 26 then go 10 22 17. How about then back to 21 20 18 from last night. Go 29 27 19. 28 can be the extra.....PP and PK

Tychonick looks pretty good right now

Outshot 13-6 in 3rd

When was the play not to lose strategy work with a lead in the 3rd??

Another defensive lapse

6-7

20 minutes to a must win and UND decides to try to pack it in defensively with a goalie making his first start. Was destined to fail.

UND is soooooo atrocious defensively

5-6

5-5

This period is on BB

The prevent D Rope-a-dope game plan in effect

Need to win this 20

Hopefully we don't see what UND missed in Sandy next weekend
