I think we fans give Donny and Minny a little too much credit to be able to influence the NCAA. Lucia isn't going to weasel out of anything. If the committee wants UM/UND, it's gonna happen.

They did last year

Exactly.

Only thing thst really gave me a chuckle was that poster saying we were or are intimidated by them. No lol.

As simple and as true as that is... We dominated the overwhelming majority of that game.

Ok... I'll admit it... I was "that guy" today. I perused another team's fan board today. I'm bored... So be it... This guy is a gem... Anyone else think we were "intimidated" by Western? Anyone see a player who looked "wore down" ... Excellent grammar haha... What was the "message" that was sent? That they'll be anything better than a bottom feeder? No... Lol I think it's laughable... (Today 01:16 AM)wmu2012 Wrote: The end of the game was imbarassing. We picked a fight because we were losing just stupid behavior led by Murray. I'm ok with this and very proud of what happened toward the end. Over the years North Dakota has the reputation of a playing style of trying to physically intimated players/teams by playing with an edge. I love Hargrove working hard going to the net, leaping over a fallen North Dakota player, he falls and while he is getting back to his feet bumps into the smaller Stecher who intern flies into McInter. This was certainly less innocent than than what a North Dakota player did earlier in the game going hard to the net and running Hafner (no call here). The North Dakota player cross checks Hargrove after the whistle and then tries to get in Hargroves face to teach him a lesson. Things get chippy, but Hargrove sends the message back Broncos wont be intimidated. What I like is how everyone grabs a guy and what we end up with is WMU on top off every single North Dakota player. Who's intimating who now? http://ndgoon.blogspot.com/ My favorite moment was Goff cross body throw of Odonnell and pinning him down on the ice. After Odonnell says uncle, Goff kindly lets him up, but Odonnell thinks he is free to take on another Bronco. Goff responds by going over to Odonnell with one hand grabs him by the throat and pins him up against the board as Odennell squirms helplessly The tone has been set with North Dakota as they know we are not a team who can be physically intimidated, in fact, the after last night they know the Broncos are actually more physical than they are. They also found out we are a very quick team and can skate with anybody. Did you see how shocked/surprised and wore down the North Dakota player who was interviewed after the first period? Broncos did nothing wrong in the end, stood their ground and sent a message

Thank you!!! Glad someone sees it how I did. We were so much better than them 5 on 5 and.

I would LOVE to know how Western matches up well with us. Sure didn't match up last night. Don't come around here with the "No Namer" garbage. This is our board, buddy.

Sure, but we absolutely dominated them in terms of possession. They could barely get into the zone in the third, let alone have any sustained pressure

I completely disagree. We dominated Western 5 on 5 in the third period. They couldn't move the puck in their zone until they were a man up and goalie gone. I think we played well. A couple of good bounces went our way, sure, but we showed a shutdown game in the third.

HEY! I called it too!!

Whatever it takes for us to get 6 points this weekend, I'm all for it

I honestly don't see any chance of this happening.

Exactly. This is where UND wins it.

And score first ... 13-0-1

3-1 GOOD GUYS Nick Schmaltz, Chyz and Mark. Three burners need to find speed into the zone. Zane comes up big.

Me too on AZ Absolutely. Zane is gonna bounce back this weekend. Hasn't been great lately. I think he's great this weekend. Better be over. We need him to be fast and make plays.

First... my rant from last week... then my preview http://bit.ly/1DGowdA

Giddy up (unintentional Bronco reference) .... sweep... but first, a rant http://bit.ly/1DGowdA

No question. Can't wait.

I don't think anyone is heartily arguing that Western isn't a good team. My belief, as I think most think, is that we are better. Regardless of what any of us think, the boys will take them very seriously.

Agreed. Top 6 PP. However, we need to be able to sweep a team like Western.

HA! This!

Just a joke

Did you forget about his absolute snipe the night before? I'd say that was fancy lol
