    They just folded the team after reading this forum so forget the suit.

    Late, I admit but...my weekend reactions to the Sioux games.
  3. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Oh crap, I agree with a Gopher fan. I better turn in my Sioux fandom ASAP. It's pretty funny that the Minnesota fan is trying, or so it appears, to inject some logic and keep fans from jumping off the cliff after a split. All in all, this is pretty damn hilarious watching this website blow up like clockwork after every single regular season loss and re-hash the last 10 years and why Hakstol should be fired immediately and replaced with one of the SS.com forum members.

    I think a lot of times saying that is that fan finding the silver lining in some of the ncaa disappointment we have had. Almost every one of our fans wants a natty. There are just some slight disagreements on how to get there.

    Did you see how Archibald's "hat trick" was scored? 1st goal- off Simpson's skate, so really an assist by Archibald 2nd goal- big change up that almost was too slow to cross the goal line yet Saunders magically missed every part of the puck 3rd goal- driving wide around Schmaltz, who recovers and gets his stick on the puck. Saunders overplays Archibald and fails to notice the puck sliding in the near side of the net. I wouldn't put it up there as one of the sexiest hat tricks ever scored. If anyone deserved to be "roughed up" it was our goalie and defense so I'm all for the bag skate idea.

    Makes sense, I'm interested to see how this will adjust to your future predictions and if it will be more or less volatile and hopefully (fingers crossed) gives UND a better chance to make bigger moves upwards!
  7. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Yes, good point. You would have to have AT LEAST 1 loss, could even have 2 with the 3rd place game now. What's the reasoning for switching your stance on PWR as I thought earlier in the year you were more keen on USCHO's?
  8. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    They don't "need to" as of right now, however if they don't play extremely well coming down the stretch it's a possibility. Winning the Final Faceoff obviously will get them in but there are other ways. We are 3 pairwise spots out of having a solid chance at being in, so I'm not ready to submit to the doom and gloom just because we had a home split.
  9. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Don't forget that Jim did not factor in a potential 2-5 extra games beyond that. I have a feeling UND will at least need to make it to Minneapolis to be playing in the NCAA Tournament at the end of the year.
  10. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    It's right up there for me too! Also in the mix, Holy Cross v. Minnesota

    ^ This, if you're expecting Rocco to turn into Oshie or Frattin and take over a game physically and otherwise you're going to be sorely disappointed. He needs other players to feed off of like Drake.
  12. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Wouldn't that mean that Blais recruited Kristo when he was about 12?! This doesn't seem right to me but Kristo came here knowing full well that Hakstol was the coach so I think we can give up the Blais recruited players approach 10 years after he's left the program .
  13. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    I really think that 2nd goal that hit Saunders in the mitt and popped in to the crease was a tough, tough goal to allow. Then the freak goal off Simpson's skate and just to top it off, the absolutely awful goal that was maybe moving a mile an hour that Clarke missed. That's how we lost that game. I'd say Saunders is credited with 3 bad goals in this game. I wanted to see Hrynkiw in the 3rd period to breath some life back into the team because it was clear our goalie's confidence was shot.
  14. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Um...Semifinal game against the Gophers in the Final Five 2 years back, but we were down 3-0 and won 6-3. So apparently "Hakstol's style" will let that happen.
  15. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Yup, last night sucked as did Saunders and our power play but let's forget it and move on. Of course this thread didn't show up when we were on our 10 game unbeaten streak that everyone has conveniently forgotten. Time to focus on Miami and controlling what we can instead of going on this pathetic Fire Hakstol routine. Let's finish the season strong and win the NCHC playoffs so there's no doubt we make the dance.
  16. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    The game was terrible as was Saunders tonight, no doubt. But let's not over think it, this team is 10-2-1 in their last 13. That's impressive. Need to get Zane back to make the tourney in my opinion. Did anyone expect to see Hrynkiw in the 3rd period because I did? Clarke looked defeated after the 3rd and I wanted to see a change.
  17. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    My predictions > Dave Berger's predictions This won't happen often so I'm basking in the glory while I can
  18. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything because it would have came out my nose reading this. Nothing gives me chills like the potential of a Minnesota/Rutgers tilt on Tuesday night in New Brunswick HA!
  19. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    My sentiments exactly. Enjoy the 6 team conference where hockey is, at best, the 3rd most important sport for all schools involved. I hope to see UofMtc soon if and when they ever decide to start playing us again because it is absolutely the best rivalry in all of college hockey and the fact that the Big 10 ended it is a travesty.
  20. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Omaha has really come along as a program since Blais was hired and have an $87 Million Arena in the works, if you can't see their potential I have nothing for your. Bemidji State made their own little niche and produced some good talent like Matt Read and made a trip to the Frozen Four. Anchorage...do you remember the 2011 WCHA Playoffs? I believe they ended your season at Mariucci so they were never a guaranteed win with how they played. I don't know how that's considered "watered down". What about playing Denver or CC(granted this year is an exception)? What about the Final Five?
  21. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Yeah, people who did not want the old WCHA broken up are really short sighted, because that league sucked right? I'm anti BIG10 because it broke up the best conference in college hockey to essentially create a 6-team circle jerk. However, I'm not jealous that Minnesota and Wisconsin joined a conference of 'like-minded' schools where hockey is the 3rd most important sport at every single one of their respective institutions and it shows in attendance. I know every conference will be just fine moving forward but if you don't miss the old WCHA, it makes it look as though this is your inaugural year following college hockey.
  22. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Thanks!
  23. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    And USCHO predicted a sweep, it's pretty much guaranteed now, right?! I take that back, Berger usually guesses Win/Loss and the score correctly so we'll have to wait to see what's in his crystal ball for this weekend.
  24. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Well I might as well post my quick breakdown while we're at it. Need some hits on the new blog.
  25. InHeavenThereIsNoBeer
    Yeah, I say we let it play out and whichever system we're higher in at the end of the year is the correct one
