I agree that the influx of talent is the biggest thing, but also that our older guys have taken the next step to be difference makers. However, I don't think we've stopped recruiting top flight players. Our guys are in on ever top tier recruit, but for whatever reason, we haven't gotten them on the forward side of it. I'll put our D recruits up against any group in the country for the next 3 years, though.

Some very important players have made a very large step -- Guchi, Adams, Mash, Bowen, Weatherby, most noticably. An influx of playmakers, ala Pinto, Michaud and Blaisdell to some extent, is the next biggest difference.

The power play is light years ahead. Having guys hit the net is a big deal, of course, but the difference in confidence in that unit is massive.

I thought the first was very even and we played well and controlled much of the second. DU took it to us for much of the third with Scheel being a stud. Last five of the third and both OTs, I think UND played well. Glad to see us get the extra point. Good stuff. We stuck right with them and makes me feel good about this team. Big, big game tonight. Lots of confidence if we walk out if Magness with 5 points. 3-2 good guys in Green. Pinto... Goodness, this kid is due. Thought he really played well last night. He gets two tonight. Adams with the other.

Glad you were picking up what I was putting down

Hahaha, but it's grammatically correct.

You might be the first person I've heard that doesn't think Heinert does a fantastic job.

Very interested in this series. Been a fantastic start and I really like this team, so this weekend should be a good measuring stick. I do think DU is a bit overrated, but we'll see I guess. 4-3 UND Guchi, Pinto, Weatherby, Adams

Or... "Guchi Gang"... not my flavor of music, but it's big with the kids https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LfJnj66HVQ

Is the blog under new management? Weak game from them, this season.

Something simple like the "Guchi Line" because slang these days for all these kids means this line, equating it to "It's gucci" means it's "cool" or "good" https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=it's gucci 6 points tonight from that line? "Yeah, that's all Guchi."

Hahaha nice.

We can do better than the lazy first/last letter line name. But, let's take a breather and see if it continues through the end of the first half. I'm thinking it'll continue, however HOWEVER... Dave Starman would love calling them the JAM line

Absolutely have the potential to be dominant.

Was texting with a couple of buddies about this on Saturday -- the chemistry these three are developing are showing signs towards being a "named line" in the very near future...

Of course. However, the Sens aren't one or two defensemen from relevancy. I think they may value these guys developing in a program that they trust.

That'd be my guess. Sure, but I think it's pretty clear that the Sens trust our coaching and development

Just a hunch. I think we get everyone back but Pooly and Peski.

Right and we... well... don't have a lot of spots lol.

Interesting. B prospect, but our D corps recruit pipeline is absolutely stocked. My guess is maybe he wanted to come in next year?

Ugh, forgot about those two.

Completely fine with being the "underdog" here. Hopefully they overlook us like LGD did.

I'd be willing to bet it would change if the B1G brought UND in. They know how we travel.

Yeah, Costello never really took off, eh? Randklev, I feel bad for. I think he'll be a good player if he can stay healthy. Definitely would like to see a couple higher end forwards coming in, soon, however.
