I think as long as we carry the UND name on the front of our jersey we will never get the benefit of the majority of CFB calls. just look over that what 7 years since the Bina incident. how many of been called against versus for us. I'm pretty sure that number is way out of whack. that is the byproduct of having a physical reputation.

especially getting outshot most games. I don't care what anybody says. getting outshot isn't a good thing on a consistent basis. the more shots you put on net the more opprtunities you have to get lucky bounce or score off a rebound, etc. it will catch up to us sooner or later.

hard not to agree. like I said earlier it will take 3-4 goals to win this afternoon and they didn't show me anything last night that says they can put that many on the board tonight. in his last two starts gothberg has had two bad periods(3rd against BU and 1st against Duluth) one bad period today and it is game over as we don't have the offensive to overcome that against a really good defensive team.

UND will need to score more than two this afternoon if they want to win.

Gothberg in the nets this afternoon.

if CC can beat yale tonight that will help offset DU's blunder of last night.

I agree on the second part. on the first part, should it have been a goal-yes. however from where the official was standing he couldn't see the puck and be blew the whistle-end of play(correct call). if the official is standing 3 more feet to his right he probably sees the whole thing and we have a tie game, but from where he was standing it is the correct call.

where does Western Carolina or whoever the heck alabama played this weekend fit into that gauntlet(sp) of "great scheduling". if the irish are overrated then florida is even more overrated and lsu has offensive issues and no qb. the only team I know for sure the irish wouldn't beat in a title game if they make it there is oregon. they would run the ND out of the building. now back to our regular scheduled pragramming.

that's a downgrade then as he was day to day after the game on friday. just keep him out till the new year to make sure he is all healed up.

IF they do beat USC and go 12-0 you can't argue too much with them being in the title game with wins over michigan,mich state, oklahoma and usc.

I'll take a split with the Irish and a Irish win over the Trojans and call it good.

I think Big Mac asside we don't have any really defensive defenseman. we have a lot of skilled offensive d. we have been spoiled over the past how many years with bigger bruising dmen whose main objective was to make opponents pay with pain not to score and create offensive opportunities.. we don't have that this year. hence our in zone d has been a liability so far and probably will for the most part this season. which makes it more important that they find a way to score 4 plus goals a game. as we'll be giving up 3-4 on a more consistent basis.

I wasn't referring to you by that.

be careful some on this board might think you aren't being positive about this upcoming weekend.

not feeling to confident about this weekend. we come off our worst weekend of the year despite getting 3 points. we'll be fortunate to get a split.

we are actually 2-2 in NC as the UAA a NC game as well.

that was the first half of the 07-08 season it lasted all the way through first week of january until we had a home series against tech the second week of january and swept them and proceeded to go on a 18 or 19 game unbeaten streak after that.

some poor team is gonna get a 7 spot hung on them one of these weekends, might as well be this weekend. I know it's early but we need a 4 point weekend just to avoid falling too far back inthe standings.

this team is no more than a .500 team right now as they aren't mature enough to put two decent games together in a row. we have a horrific pp, piss poor d and can't score period. what is the point of being all excited about these players coming back if they don't produce. with the supposed "talent" on this team it shouldn't be a struggle to score 4 goals a game. denver lost more than us this off season and doesn't have any troubles scoring.

this is a very average hockey time right now. not any different at this point of the season than any other hakstol team in november. I was not impressed with either team this weekend. this squad right now has no flow and a brutal power play.

we might have to forfit(sp) next fridays game at this rate with suspensions and injuries. if rowney and parks are out that would leave us down to what 15 players?

I wonder if Parks is out for an extended period of time if there is any chance Hak would move one of the Alaska suspensions from friday to saturday to avoid a roster that is two players short?

I hope I am wrong but I envision a bit of a slow start with two unproven goalies and possibly a few 5-4, 6-5 type games.

this could be a good thing if hammer decides he wants to stick it out as he has a history recently of not sticking with career moves.

a source has said suter has an dea he wants to go to where parise goes. if that is the case it rules the hawks out.
