God d@mn I missed playoff hockey. The best stress in the world.

Said this to a couple buddies... Hard to think they aren't one of the top 16 teams, but sometimes you have to be what your record says you are.

Hahahahahahahahahaha. Welcome back, buddy. Missed you.

Pretty sure it needs to be connected to a cable package to stream their app. Not 100% positive, but I'm pretty sure.

Ugh.... 8 pm is soooo far away lol

I see no reason why we need to give them any attention.

End. DU's. Season.

Yeah, I get it. I just think it's pure nonsense. He nearly took a puck off the head while down!

Btw, I understand why they didn't, but my goodness, the refs need to blow that play dead with JBD on shakey legs. Clearly a head injury and was obviously not selling it because he just blew a tire with no opposition around. Refs need to blow that dead. They did with Kleven earlier in the game.

Just a clear and unmistakable difference in talent on the ice tonight. Miami gave plenty of effort, but they simply weren't in our league in this one. Definitely a d-bag thing to publicly say about your seniors, but he's really not wrong. UND could have had 10+ goals tonight. They absolutely skated circles around Miami for long chunks of the game. So many Grade As in the third that UND didn't connect on. Massive game from Adams and Guchi. They were so dang good. Not our best effort, either. D got a bit sloppy in the zone at times, especially early on. But, in the second and for most of the third, UND absolutely dominated. Looking forward to the semis. Still missing Mash and I sure hope JBD is ok. He seemed alright after he shook off the cobwebs. Absolute warrior to keep going and even blocked a shot.

He was so frickin' good tonight. Looked faster than I've seen him in a real long time.

Stonestradmous strikes again! Got Adams and Gaber, too! *Pats self on back*

I think he meant the advantage of extra rest. If they take the early game on Monday and win, they'd get extra rest for Tuesday. That's been the way the team has typically gone if they win in a semi final and are the higher seed -- take the late game and be as close to full rest as possible.

I'm going 6-2 good guys... Pinto, Sanderson, Gaber gets off the schneid, Adams, Sendo, Juddy

Pinto named first unanimous NCHC Player of the Year. Berry named coach of the year. UND wins 4 out of 5 awards. Impressive and super fun to have for our team. Now on to the awards the boys really want.

I don't know about you all, but, I just want to get through this tourney. I'm sure this feeling will change once we drop the puck on Friday and hopefully farther, but I am just so desperately wanting to see this team play in the NCAA tournament. That stress/excitement is so unmatched and I want it to be March 26th so badly.

I absolutely do not think he needs the work. Dude is locked in.

Ditto. I'd say all four who were out last week will play tomorrow. But, I also think Thome will and should play.

I think the coaching staff showed last week (sitting Pinto, Guchi, Mash) that they are wholly confident that this team can get it done regardless of who is on the ice. I think Thome has earned the start on senior night and the team is definitely confident in him. With the NCHC tournament up next, I totally get that we want to keep momentum and Scheel is unequivocally our guy, but I don't see it as a big problem if he doesn't play tonight. He's so incredibly dialed in right now and our D is so good in front of him. Give it to Thome!

Sanderson, fake shot, rotate down to opposite slot to Weatherby is what's happened

No way, man. Thome deserves the net on senior night. He's perfectly capable of winning this game. As much as I think UND wants/needs the No. 1 overall seed, they are plenty confident in Peter being able to get that win.

Weatherby and Scheel named forward and goalie of the month in the conference. Raise your hand if you believed this would happen for Jasper back in January? If you're raising your hand, you're a liar lol. Impressive stuff for him. Scheel just keeps showing how great he is. He's so confident right now. Great month... let's make March even better.

One thing I'm really, really excited about from this game isn't just about this season, but next... With guys like Weatherby (assuming he stays), Juddy, Gaber and some absolute studs on the blue line, our cupboard won't be bare. This squad is so deep. Like someone else mentioned, we have a guy who's potted goals in 7 straight while looking like a bonafide star playing on our third line. Sanderson is our best defenseman now and maybe the best in the NCHC and that's incredible considering how deep this corps is. Scheel is dialed in. This team is just flat out fun.

Gotta go with a senior... Adams
