Osh played hurt and Kozek got clipped at the end of the game last night.

What did we have here in Fargo 8-9"??

What a gritty performance by Oshie! Having a leader step up like that makes everyone else very accountable for this evening's game.

Mason was BRUTAL!

Great bounce back win and something to build on for next weekend!

My video feed has been great as well.

You mean "more talent" friendly.

Correct but unfortunately not tonight (as it stands now anyways)

Ex-lax is a little leaky in net for MTU tonight

Pitt was the biggest dog on the board today. If you took the 28 points, it's looking pretty good!

Boys are playing pretty well. Need to stay out of the 2nd period funk we've been for a few games. And did anyone else catch the color tool on the video barking that UND is doing alot of "clutching and grabbing" and it is not getting called. Need to get that 2nd goal bad.

Will see if Zajac got Hak's message...UND has not lost a game, I believe, in which Zajac has scored. He might as well get one tonight!!!

Any word on the status of Oshie and Kozek for tonight?? Also MTU did get the shaft on the goal that was waved off 1:30 into the game.

I agree. This might be one of those first score wins again tonight, but you have to think we can find some offense?? I think this is one of those "must" games early in the year. I know it's "early" but it is Dec. 1 and I don't want to be 2 games below .500 in the WCHA after tonight. Sioux 3-2

I'll give you 2 period BC game in the fog, but if we are having to STEAL a game from Northeastern...Ouch!! Although I do recall JPL making 30+ saves in the shutout of NE. Was hunting that weekend so I'll accept your opinion.

But I have heard from Hak. vs MTU on Fri. and WI on Fri., we played well enough to win but their goalie stole one. When has UND stole one this year more less won a game they shouldn't have lost i.e. last Sat vs. UMD. At some point those parts of the equation has to change for this team to have a chance. Could it have been 5-0 last night--sure, but how about once in awhile, in a game like last night, it be 1-1 or 2-1 UND. We need to create some of our own breaks and that has not happened yet this season. You can keep squandering opportunities and not expect it to bite you in the onions at some point.

JLP played very well last night, but like any goalie he is bound to be off his game (i.e. last Sat.) on occasion. What bothers me is we lost a game last Sat. that we shouldn't have, then last night JPL plays well enough to steal one and can't get one goal to at least get a tie more less the win. Potential 3 point swing in the WCHA standings. Now the same scenerio could happen tonight or we could post 3 or 4 and JPL let's in a couple soft ones and we lose. I'm not saying we'll lose tonight, my point is we are not taking advantage of the game to game situtation that present itself from time to time to convert standing points when we have the opportunity to do so. I see a very similar game tonight from last night--JPL will play well, low scoring and another first goal wins it type of game.

But the last time I checked, every W, L or T counts. Are the polls going to matter come mid-week--No. But what they are a reflection of the the soon to be released Pairwise and like it or not, it more than likely is going to be a season of watching that barometer to see whether we are in or out ot the NCAA tourney come season's end. And frankly this team has too much talent for the Pairwise to potentially determine it's NCAA fate. Now if we go on a run and win 12 out of the next 15-16 game that probably won't be an issue, but will that happen for the 4TH year in a row??

But that is like saying there was only one fly in your soup instead of 2 or 3. In any case, it's not good!

That is the pathetic part, we are "early" in the season according to some but that couldn't be more true.

Then this team needs a new playbook because one of these years that "plan" isn't going to work.

I know the mantra is "it is early in the season", but my calender will be Dec. 1 tomorrow. If tomorrow nights game isn't close to a must win this "early" in the year, I don't which one will be. Possibly 2 games below .500 in the WCHA heading back to GF with this talent is not what I think this team or us as fans envisioned.

Tough for JPL to steal one when we can't even piss in the LOW urinal!!

3 pre-season All-Americans, pre-season #1...seems like we are not quite there . The inconsistancy and off and on effort added to stupid plays=1 game below .500 in the conference for goodness sakes

Now let's get this one!
