  1. Think that was just more because Bradford had actual experience and game action this year going through training camp, preseason, and week 1. While Bridgewater was able to start practicing middle of the year and played a few plays in 1 game so no real game time this year.
  2. I don't know if they will but I believe they have the 6th most cap space in the NFL right now so should be able to add some solid pieces. I think they will try to bring back Bridgewater and Keenum and let them compete in camp for the job. I would not be at all surprised if Teddy is the starter week 1 next year.
  3. Maybe, but even thinking back to Denver I know they had like 5 PP goals on the weekend but the PK was much tougher in those areas. Same with St. Cloud they usually have a very good PP and they were 1/8 on the weekend and really had trouble on entries.
  4. When the PK was really good earlier this year we got clears most of the time on the 1st opportunity sometimes 2nd. Lately a lot of the clear attempts have looked more like passes to the other teams D man and we rarely clear on the 1st chance. Teams also are having a much easier time on entries seems like guys just aren't making good decisions on when/where to pressure in the neutral zone.
  5. Embarrassing weekend of hockey. This team is just so very frustrating. We have seen what they are capable of, when they play hard smart hockey for 60 minutes they can beat anybody in the country. The problem is I don't know if this team has played 2 consecutive games of hard smart hockey all season and lately we haven't even got one complete game a weekend. You would think by now the guys would get it but evidently they needed another wakeup call. This team doesn't have near enough talent to overcome taking shifts off, taking stupid penalties, making dumb plays, and giving up weak goals. With Denver coming to town next weekend the guys better figure out how to play hard every shift real quick or it could get real ugly next weekend.
  6. He is uncommitted, Omaha took him last spring in the 8th round of the USHL phase 2 draft
  7. Randklev really turned it on late in the 3rd and through OT. Centennial had done a pretty good job on him throughout the game. Frisch was very noticeable breaking up plays as well as rushing pucks and jumping in the play he really picks his spots well. Doesn't do it a whole lot but did show a little bit more physical play today than previous times I've seen him.
  8. Frisch and Randklev about to get started on FSN against Centennial.
  9. Just not consistent enough execution throughout the game last night to get a win. Felt like we settled for the outside too much last night. We did have some guys in front for screens and tips at times but just seems this team doesn't drive the net and create opportunities near as much as past Sioux teams. Another thing that seems to be consistent in our losses is the amount of shots that get blocked or guys just miss the net on solid opportunities. Yon and Mismash have been the guys in and out of the lineup lately but I really thought both played well last night so with Gardner out I don't know that we will see any changes up front tonight but I'd expect Johnson in for Peski at D tonight.
  10. That guy had every detail along the way of the Fleck deal. He posted before the Gophers bowl game last year and not a lot of people took it serious on GopherIllustrated but then everything that he kept posting would happen did happen and it was a very fun thread to follow.
  11. Keenum usually doesn't make as many mistakes as he did yesterday and I listed plays that resulted in the Vikings missing on points or the Saints getting points and I didn't even list the Viking TD that got called back. PI was the right call Crawley grabbed him during the route and Diggs was smart enough to hold his arm in there so the ref noticed it, Lutz missed FG from 58 hardly a sure thing and Ingram didn't get 1st down because Vikings stopped the Saints run game just ast they did earlier in the game on 2 3rd&1 plays, you're reaching for plays man. Pretty evident you are a biased fan as well. We just aren't gonna agree so might as well just move on. I thought the Vikings were the much better team and Saints were only in the game because of plays the Vikings gave them. Saints only had 2 drives all game that they got points on that started in New Orleans territory.
  12. Shouldn't have been as close as it was. The penalties were all legit calls Saints fans can complain if they want but they are lucky they didn't have a couple more PI calls specifically on a Thielen catch where he went up high to get it and Lattimore already had his legs wrapped up and was trying to tackle him before the ball was there. Vikings defense was pretty dominant throughout the game and the Saints just took advantage of what the Vikings gave them with bad decisions/plays. Vikings missed 48 yard field goal before half. Vikings good drive to start the 2nd half would've had about 47 yard field goal and Keenum takes a bad sack instead of throwing the ball away. Saints put together a long drive but Thomas gets away with a hit to Sendejo's head and it changes the momentum and the Saints get a TD a play or 2 after that. At minimum there should've been a offensive PI call on Thomas and at maximum you could argue the intent and give him a personal foul. Keenum terrible decision/pass turns into a interception and sets up the Saints around the Vikings 30 and they quickly cash in with a TD. Vikings give up blocked punt and give Saints the ball around the Vikings 35-40 and Saints get another TD.
  13. Vikings fans deserve this. Shouldn't have needed the play at the end or been near as close with all the mistakes the Vikings made but bottom line is survive and advance.
  14. Had plenty of chances to get the win tonight. Gersich really had some good looks and I thought he would get one tonight. Bitzer was very good as he has been for 4 years for Bemidji. Little bit unlucky with both of the Beaver goals being redirects and both maybe going off UND players, 2nd one did for sure. Didn't see much of Adams, Mismash, and Kawaguchi in the 3rd/OT.
  15. Got a start his freshman year against Iowa replacing a guy who was suspended for a half and filled in fine. Gophers LB group has been very good and he just got lost in the shuffle. Last couple years I don't think he saw any defensive snaps but played on most special teams units.
  16. REA was completely dead from opening puck drop absolutely terrible atmosphere tonight. Decent number of shots from the Sioux but not a whole lot of good chances. Intensity and compete level from the guys looked like what you would see in the middle of the summer not for a conference game in the 2nd half of the season. Half second slow on everything tonight and really just lackadaisical and sloppy in all areas tonight. Would expect at least a couple lineup changes for tomorrow and hopefully a much better game. Reffing was also pretty bad but as soon as they said Walsh was doing the game I figured it would be. Absolutely hate that guy and wish he would just quit reffing or at least go to a different league.
  17. No problem with the decision just seemed like the puck rolled on him a little and he didn't get as much on it as he wanted to. He has been the best player for the U.S. the entire tournament and is the guy I'd want to have the shot in that situation. Spacing wasn't very good to really move the puck on the opportunity either. Bottom line though you get a 3-on-0 chance against a good team and it has to end up in the net.
  18. Didn't watch the game but saw the highlights on the WDAZ last night EGF had a PP goal or 2 and also killed at least 1 5-on-3 so maybe special teams part of the difference. Looking at EGF Hockey account on Twitter it was 2-1 EGF going to the 3rd and Central was outshooting them 18-17. Wave scored 57 seconds into the 3rd, and then again with 13:38 left and 9:35 left for the 5-1 win.
  19. Got a chance to knock off some rust and didn't look like anybody got hurt, that's about as much as you can get from an exhibition.
  20. I grew up in Red Lake Falls and played hockey there. The high school team only has about 10 players this year and is terrible. 0 talent at all. Bantam team is solid and would beat the high school in running time this year easily.
  21. Good opportunity to get Teddy some time here.
