Oxbow6

He made a couple good saves, but was shaky throughout. His puck handling below the red line is brutal. Almost gave the game away with a few misplays of the puck. Kristo was UND's best player tonight. Simpson really struggled and Blood wasn't much better.

JT Miller with USA goal...he's going to be a good one @ UND. Solid 2 way forward. Only USA guy to mix it up out there.

At least you said that with conviction!

Any chance you can elaborate on your position so it becomes a little clearer to all of us!?!?

Buddy of mine went to game last pm and said USA U18 looked brutal. Good to see Bruno in line-up...gona call it now that he gets one tonight. UND 5-2...UND coasts and BE let's in a softie.

To each of your questions above so far under the guidance of Jones...IMO no, no, and no.

I hear what you're saying...but got to take the good with the bad. With that being said, IF people actually watched the games as you referenced, it is evident he is a defensive liability at times. He was Mankato's best offensive weapon the first 10-12 minutes of yesterday's game. His offensive skills though have a way of overcoming some defensive mishaps most of the time. To his credit though, as the season has gone on, he seems to be finding that happy medium more of being an offensive defensemen.

5 aside...stay outa the box!

5x3...stupid penalty on Blood!

Mav with a dive...penalty on Rowney.

Blood penalty....Mavs on PP

MALONE! 3-2 UND

Cichy off the post...again!

Nelson

Not much jump by UND to start 2nd.

Dell was hung out to dry on second goal...total defensive brekdown.

This team still gives up way to many odd man rushes! SOG 13-4 UND. Dell with 2 saves.

Not to mention he is a pure sniper that we haven't seen in many years.

Totally agree...on a team with lots of talent, he has been far and away the best player.

WOW...Frattin is playing on a different level right now.

Slow start again tonight...

Not sure who the extra day in between games favors? UND should have more legs than Friday I would hope. Sioux...4-2. Frattin keeps rolling and Malone, Knight and Cichy get goals too. With Vike's game moved (family in Lakeville reported 21"), I'll get to watch Packers at noon, then hockey after!

You can insert any team for NDSU above in BB, and for that matter FB, and be 100% correct.

He's on borrowed time as I type IMO.

...it's pretty easy though with those two!
