Well you would not get that "hot take" on CNN or MSNBC.............so you're welcome.

Unless mask/helmet has the Statue of Liberty on it then it can't be worn as to not offend any Koreans in the building...................................................

I thought that was the Friday game thread? #BooBerry

UND won Saturday............ #AllhailBerry

UND lost Friday............ #BooBerry

Goaltender dilemma.......... 1) Proven Natty winning goalie that isn't play particularly well with a team in front of him that can't score and has effort/consistency issues. 2) Unproven night in and night out goalie who from the eyeball test has a few obvious flaws but the team in front of him plays better/harder and scores the puck. Right now you go with option #2.

Wild looked good but how bad is CHI right now?!?!

Having watched this team all season so far I don't put the team's inconsistent play on the coaching staff as much as I do the players and their leaders on and off the ice. At some point the players need to own their effort and execution. JJ, Mismash and I'll throw in Gersich can't be so hit and miss. There's others too but those 3 were terrific last night.

Didn't play last week and moved up to #8 in Pairwise. Split with a crappy team and now at #12. A split next week won't help much. Getting swept will put this team in a huge hole.

For this team to maybe gain some consistency JJ, Mismash and a couple others need to play like last night every night........not vanish for the next 2-3 series. Thome needs to get the start Friday at UNO. IMO Yon and Kawaguchi are the 2 forwards that sit if Jones can go next weekend.

Beating a team above us in the Pairwise would help........kind of like last night's loss killed us.

Hopefully it'll vault UND to #12 in the Pairwise!

Just wish this squad could find a way to put back to back good games together some weekend

Murphy was a rock star in practice......

He has some Luke Johnson in him.......

JJ......1-0

I can't remember a UND team being this inept offensively

Kawaguchi is one of the worst forwards as far as playing along the walls I've seen at UND in a long time. He has decent open ice skills but UND doesn't play race horse hockey.

Totally agree with your last point...... but who is that at this stage? If Jones gets healthy put Gersich and Adams on the wings? Adams is not a center yet he has been forced to.play there like last night. 30 games.....30 different lineups but Berry seems to be grasping for combos to click. ......and IMO Adams should see the ice over Kawaguchi right now.

It has been 9 periods since any forward on this team has scored a goal. If I was a betting man I'd wager that even I have a better chance of "scoring" on Wednesday night than do multiple forwards tonight.

Here's to Wolanin with a hat-trick!

Thome in......Cam out. Casey at forward.......Adams out. Mismash centering JJ and Kawaguchi. BTW...........Kawaguchi must have inherited the "longest leash" on the team after Wilkie left..........who got it from Murphy but I digress.

If UND is awarded two penalty shots tonight I like their chances............

As I stated previously last in the NCHC in scoring offense. This team is talent poor overall at the forward spot. Half....7.....of the rostered forwards have not scored a single goal in the last 7 or more of the games they have played in. I'm all in favor of optimism until it completely overshadows reality.
