This is our second series this season. Could we at least try to have some patience with this team?

I’ve seen it elsewhere tonight unfortunately. Not here.

People are going to call for Berry’s head after every loss. It’s pathetic and embarrassing.

You’re thinking of last year’s game when we wore black on Saturday!

I actually agree. I wish they would have stuck with the rotation. I hope they go back to it next weekend.

Yes. Quite a few times actually. I’d have to do a deep dive to look them up but I remember several.

I was surprised Lachance is one of their captains. Had to confirm he was in fact a sophomore. Also learned Jack Parker is his grandpa, didn’t know that.

As someone with a lot of food sensitivities, It’s definitely hard when everyone else can eat whatever they want without worry and you have to second guess everything.

I guess I wouldn’t. It just is really clear, especially with the Internet, that everyone hates UND. Probably because we have the most fans and we travel and Denver lacks those so other fanbases don’t get as riled up with them.

UND doesn’t really seem to get rolled by teams like BU lately. I don’t know if they will win but I anticipate 2 competitive games.

I was at the game. I’m sorry but I am going to agree with Coach Berry and the players on this. I thought they played way better on Saturday than on Friday.

Every interview I’ve heard from Berry so far this year Berry has pushed back on anyone who has suggested TJ is our starter. Which seems to indicate we are going to see more of a rotation. But we’ll see.

He’s supposed to be a set up guy himself. That’s all we heard about him before he got to UND. Haven’t seen much of that though.

All you need to know is if he was a UND caliber player he probably would be in the current junior class. He committed to UND about the same time as Dylan James. He’s been playing junior hockey since 2020.

Did anyone?

It was frustrating to watch but I’ve seen games like this before where nothing seems to be working and it typically works itself out. I’ll worry more if this continues to be a trend in the next couple weeks. I’ve seen some pretty insane overreactions from non-UND fans. Apparently 4 days into the season there is no hope for our team to turn this around.

I saw Merrimack was playing their student manager as goalie due to injuries to 2 of their goalies and a suspension for the other. That’s crazy!

Correct. All the games tonight are not exhibition. (Aside from U18 vs Notre Dame). Tomorrow and Sunday there will be a mix of exhibition and regular season games.

Reality is someone too good for the 4th line is going to be on the 4th line.

I’m going to that Cornell series and noticed it’s their season opener. They have a scrimmage against Princeton and an exhibition game before that. We should be well tested by then, so hopefully it’s a good series.

All I’ve heard about his recruitment is that he’s gotten interest from NCHC and Big 10 schools. It wasn’t specified which schools though.

I didn’t really notice any deep ties to UMN with Berchild outside of him being from there, so him going somewhere else didn’t shock me. His parents are both from Wisconsin, and I guess I don’t find it shocking that a kid from Shattuck picks a private university. Minnesota has been oddly quiet this cycle, but I’m not sure the reasons. A lot of people who follow recruiting assumed they’d get Berchild.

It’s happening because for some strange, stupid reason UND only has one goalie recruit committed at one time. Hobie Hedquist was the only goalie recruit for years and we kept deferring him, hence the transfer goalies. And now we have Caleb Heil, who unless has an absolutely monster year I don’t see them bringing him in next year. He’s still pretty young. So the cycle repeats.

Davis wasn’t good to start the season but Denver was scoring a lot so it didn’t really affect their win/loss record. Denver’s team save percentage was sub .900 for quite a while. Backup wasn’t good either.

It’s definitely different out East. I went to the BU games last year and a 2 tickets for both games was $86 total! im going to the Cornell series so hopefully I have better luck getting decently priced tickets for that series than ASU.
