I hear ya

Way to much black and white here. You CAN say that we should have goalies split time (when healthy) WITHOUT it meaning that Cam is a direct problem. He is not. Cam is good. But teams play different in front of different goalies. I think this team get a little to complacent in front of Cam. May splitting some time make them stay on their game?

You are missing the point. Cam is not necessarily the issue, BUT sometimes a change in goalie will also change the approach of the defense. That’s not always a bad thing.

The defense accentuated his talent. I am and always have been a Cam fan. A periodic change in goaltenders also changes the menatality of your defense sometimes. If anything my criticism is the defense needs to limit opportunities.

Not where I was going at all. I just want more than one guy.you know depth! I think I mentionedCam makes some amazing saves, but some of his success can be attributed to his defense too. My point was,sometime a change in goal makes your DEF play different. Not saying it is all on the goalie.

Agreed. I like Cam, but we need some competitive goaltending. Cam will make a few spectacular saves, then let in some questionable ones. Not that I think Thome is necessarily better, but sometime the guy in goal changes the mindset of the defense.

Sandelin has kind of turned into a little biotch. Really not a fan. Guy can turn in his UND colors, and not because he has beat us lately. You can win and coach without being a d-bag. #DontBeMonty

This team has zero consistency. They can be really good, but completely inconsistent.

Wow, what the hell was that?

Bizarre, looked like a hit and the guy got knocked down. I didn’t see anything there. In fact I’ve seen one actual penalty all game and that was the boarding call.

I guess I didn’t really think that was a penalty.

Yeah, I live in TC, but with really young kids, and already traveling so much to the lake in the summer, I'm pretty much maxed out on driving. I try to make it to at least 1 game a season.

Wish I lived close enough to buy season tickets.

Nice to see some positive new on here. Would like to see some more new period. Its been pretty quiet.

Anyone know, can you buy a single game, and how much is it?

How can you hate a movie that flashes the Sioux logo.

It doesn't have to work, you are already up 7-0. You just have to be able to say you did it. So, stop ruining everyone's childhood with your facts. You may have already missed a Might Duck tidbit that did take place on Saturday night... Its not worth winning, if you CAN'T WIN BIG!!!!!

There is no reason, when UND was up 7-0 this past weekend, we couldn't have pulled out the flying V, just for $hits and giggles. Name one person, other than Sic, that would not have enjoyed that!!!

But its the movie where old ducks and new ducks unite!

I would tend to agree with this, with one exception. I think and NDSU/SDSU game would have been much closer than the JMU/SDSU game was. Both are talented, but are also very familiar with each other. There would have been a revenge factor, a rivalry factor and playoff implications all in one match up. While SHSU isn't a pushover, I do think they end up over rated each year, compared to what they do. No doubt about it, they are a good team, but I think their results are often amplified by specific matchups. They have a high octane offense, amplified by playing some poor defenses. They run into a competent defense that know how to shut down their style and we saw the results. I hope the UND coaches will be looking long and hard at the NDSU/SHSU film to prep for next fall. I would like to believe that a healthy offense will be competent enough to keep us in the game, but that will need to be proven. I do think that a healthy defense should keep us in the game, and I say that with more certainty. I really like that the coaches got SHSU on the schedule next season, and it should be a good measuring stick of where this team is.

I get what you're saying, but every fan base has people like that, including our own. Not looking to kiss NDSU's backside, I just think its a little humorous that folks on here like to talk about how they were going to slide this year, and they got the easy path to Frisco, like this year was some fluke. They've been doing this for years now. I guess i just find it a little petty and whiny.

Hey, I don't like NDSU any more than the next guys I just think its funny that people on this forum were talking about their teams regressing and slipping back a bit, prior to them going back to the Nat'l Championship game, or talking about how they had a cupcake run to the championship, while we have moved on to basketball or hockey. Just sounds like a whole lot of jealous whining to me. If we were sitting where the Bison are, with the same path to the championship, nobody would be talking about a cupcake path. Now I will be pulling for JMU, but to say that the team is where they are because of who they played is a little dumb.

While I too hope that eventually UND can get to where NDSU is competitively. I just don't understand why there is so much bashing on the team. The fans, sure ... The media love, sure, but the team, they have pretty much earned the spot they are in. Talking about a cupcake side of the bracket ... really? They have basically dominated everyone, not sure why we need chalk up that kind of performance to weak opponents, especially from our vantage point at UND. It just like people talking about NDSU slipping before the season started; and now they are in another championship game, with a ridiculous recruiting class coming in. I think folks on this board need to take a little step back in the smack talk of NDSUs team or performance, and focus on our own guys. Lets face it, it is exactly where we want our team to be. I don't much care what NDSU is doing unless we play them next year, which I hope we do. It will mean we are in the playoffs and doing far better than this season.

Drive by it frequently in the summer, and it is absolutely massive. Looks like something from Miami beach. Nice sandy spot out front which is a great place to go park the boat.
