Fair enough but whatever the system Berry is coaching isn't working with these Dman...it's pretty obvious.

Lots of WCHA flavor in the Wild/Blues game...Parise ties it at 1.

<gasp> Getting popcorn...

Pattyn was looking for a partner to drop em with. Problem is no Clown bit. Looked premeditated as it was his 1st shift and he was yapping as he left the bench. Put UND is a tough spot right off the bat.

Similar to our last Natty?!?!

We use to be physical, tough and responsibly sound. Now we are soft, out of posituon and undisciplined.

Fire Muss!!! My 2 cents to this thread since I'm not in camp to fire Hak.

Agree. Think the WCHA has figured out that with this UND team they can plug things up offensively for us and wait for their chances knowing we'll cough up some bad turnovers in our own end that will lead to quality scoring chances.

Hak doesn't post here I believe.

Specifically those three...Schmaltz looks totally disinterested on the ice. Mattson looks lost. Forbort had his best game in a month last night and that's not saying much. Berry has to be held accountable for this defensive mess. That's why he was brought in.

3-3-2 in the 2nd half of this season...wouldn't call it a surge and 1-2-1 in last 4 league home games. We dropped to 10th in the Pairwise. WI is coming in playing their best hockey to date. We need wins. We need WCHA points and more than 2...that's the bottom line.

A 15-20 second lapse cost this team a win when no UND player made much of an effort moreless extra effort to secure the puck on the delayed penalty goal. SCSU is decent, but I didn't leave the Ralph saying "Wow this team is going to win the McNaughton Cup or the Final Five". We gave them Friday's game and we didn't finish around the net...again...last night. Their PP is the best I've seen this year but 5x5 they really don't gernerate much offensively. They are soild on D but not great and when was the last time UND didn't make a Clown goalie look like an All-American?? What they do do is bust their a** for 60 minutes each night and that will cover up alot of their shortcomings. Our team needs to be realistic from here on out and work to secure home ice and get to the F5...play well there and get into the NCAA anyway it can. Right now this team is inconsistent with play and effort, plays very poorly on it's own D zone, gives up too many soft goals especially early in games and struggles to find scorers not named Danny, Corbin or Rocco. 4 points in the last 6 league games with 4 of those games at home a 2nd half surge it doesn't make. So for all you dewey meadows, colorful rainbows, fluffy kittens, and green wnearing glasses fans...we looked better last night, deserved a better fate, a tie is better than a loss and the season is still early as it's not even February yet so we still got the 2nd haf surge coming. 2 big games next weekend vs WI...a point isn't going to cut it.

Yup, yup and yup! IMO Bryn Colton and Drake would be solid together. Chyzyk has that "it" quality on the ice.

Much better effort minus the laziness by Kristo on the delayed penalty goal that tied it up. Doubt this team is capable of a "full 60 minutes".

Daly gave him a quick spear to the groin.

SCSU doesn't generate much offensively if not on PP. Gotta say outa the box in 3rd.

This!!!!!

Wow...didn't see Mitch or Rodwell sitting. Watch out fit Gaarder's line...Bryn and Drake I like at wings therem. Finally Rocco w Kristo and pick-a-goalie.

Way I look at it UND couldn't play worse and SCSU any better. That soft 1st goal by Zane was devastating IMO.

"You play to win the game!" But his point is winning those games probably hasn't been advantagous heading into the NCAA due to all the games played in a short amout of time.

Chyzyk's last game was the Friday night game vs. the Irish if I remember correctly. Hasn't seen the ice since. He is more offensively skilled than St. Clair so who knows what's up?

I would be shocked if we didn't see a team that resembled the team from last Saturday at UM. If UND can keep SCSU off the PP, I agree it's a 2 goal win for UND.

What do you call Mark Mac and Parks? Your only other options are Rocco and Drake.

This team defensively is what it is and it will continue as is IMO. This team's only chance to make strides is to put the best offensive talent together on 3 lines and try to get more goals than we give up. The SOG margin last night was ridiculous and in most games this year we have been out shot. Now you who say SOG don't matter go back and watch the 1st goal of the game last night!
