It got SO bad in the second last night. He complained after four straight shifts.

100% what I saw. I like Nelson, Ranta and Meyers. Other than that, it wasn't close and I don't think I'd prefer any player on their team over what we got.

Totally opinion, you're right, but for me, all of Minnesota did for the most part, was shoot from the point and look for a scrum in front. Despite that game getting to 3-2, I never once felt like UND lost control of that game. We definitely got a bit gassed near the end, however. See, I don't see a lot of difference from Thursday. They turned the puck over less, but UND still consistently won board battles and destroyed Minnesota through the middle. Ranta, their best player, was irrelevant this weekend as we never gave him space. I think the main difference from night one to night two was we didn't create as many turnovers and bury all of our chances. Minnesota is a very soft team. Plenty of talent, but very, very soft.

I'm sorry, but Minnesota was NOT the better team last night. Minny came out hard in the first 10 or so minutes, but we absolutely put it on them through the middle part of that game. They took the next 10-15 min in the third, but finished strong. No way was Minnesota better in that game.

Here's a gem... This guy believes that Minnesota team, which we consistently walked, toe dragged, stick check and sniped all weekend... has better talent, but UND won on experience... adorable.

God this makes me happy. Maybe a little bit sad. But WAY more happy than sad haha.

Tell us how you really feel.

Exactly my thought.

Sure, but again, I don't 100% think it's an effort thing. I have no reason to believe UND won't bring it tonight. But, I see a talent difference in the two teams.

Of course, but the talent gap seemed tremendous, especially on the back end for Minny. This won't change tonight. I just flat out think we're better. That's from seeing them play several games before yesterday and of course, after last night.

That was good... this one... is my current favorite I've seen on the Interwebs.

Hahaha from what I saw last night, the Gophs aren't far ahead. I'd bet we wear the business suits tonight.

Coming into the series, I would have been happy with a split. After last night and seeing the talent difference from UND to Minnesota, I would be very disappointed with a loss tonight. UND is better, top to bottom. Play anywhere near our game from last night, game over. 5-1 UND Kierstad, Pinto, Michaud, Adams, Mash

Nor should they be. Their defense corps is chalked full of pylons. Flat out talent deficiency. We play anywhere near where we did tonight, it won't matter.

Sooooo many opportunities for Thanksgiving puns! Stuffing the net with nine goals. I'm full, baby.

FSN North both days

Let's ... Roll ... 4-2 good guys in Green. Michaud, Adams, Kierstad, Jasper

Hak is 100% NOT a hateful human. Great dude, actually.

Thursday -- Michaud Friday -- Pooly

It's almost like winning makes people want to watch.

Hey man, why don't just you be a little more ... thankful... you are getting this high-quality, above-board comedy Hahahaha I totally realized that you weren't being grumpy, you were partaking.... well done. Just like I prefer my turkey.

I think my jokes are becoming a bit corn... y.

Ok, fine... I'll serve myself a little slice of humble.... pie

Or.... Maybe... I yam, what I yam?

My take on this team offensively... when we forecheck and play with pace, they create space and opportunities and have shown the ability to pot goals much better than the past two seasons. I see no reason why we can't sweep as we are a great defensive team, but a split seems like the smart play.
