THIS!!! Just rack up the shots, and look for the rebounds. We get in trouble when we try to find the perfect shot.

Agreed, he has looked much better. Would still like to see him make some quicker decisions and rip some shots from the top of the circle. Though that goes for most of this team. They seem to hesitate on their shots, and let the defense clog up the lanes. Quick shots will be especially crucial if we make it to Saturday and play the Dawgs again. Duluth is really good at taking away the shooting lanes, and we need to be a little quicker.

oh, I'm sure Blood started it. Hilarious to watch though. You can actually see Ben just laughing at the guy.

Yep, or he was just really mad at that net.

Check you cable package. ESPN U may be included. ESPN 3 games are online only. If you have a Roku, or similar device, you should be able to watch the games through the ESPN app on that device.

Jeez, who are you? Adam Schefter? That is some sneaky reporting there.

Super excited for hockey this weekend, but just watch some football highlights from last season. Oh man! Can't wait for some football! So much talent coming back for North Dakota. Time to put it all together and make a deep run! Senior QB 4 Horsemen Reyes Harris Mercer So much more! What is not to like about this team!

If anyone needs some good reading material. I thought this article from Denver was pretty good. DU Hockey, Coaching situation, NCHC/Big Ten Implications. https://letsgodu.com/2017/03/23/puck-swami-pioneer-hockey-needs-to-win-ncaa-title-now/

I think I have solved the Pionk Mystery ... he was trying to copy Wisconsin. He wasn't trying to hit Cam at all, just the net.

Credit to them for that though. I remember when the Bulldogs were mediocre for several years. I always considered that a series we should sweep every year. They have really developed their program, and brought in some talent. Only thing I can't figure out is why kids want to play in front of a fairly empty stadium. I just don't get how in a city the size of Duluth, with a competitive team, and a new arena, in Northern Minnesota, the arena isn't consistently packed.

Fargo has other sporting events? I mean, I think there are some bean bag tournaments during the spring and summer, but I think that is about it.

He probably got it on ebay

Plays for who?

I'm good either way. It would be really funny to see OSU beat them. Though it would be satisfying to see us beat them in that national tourney. Let them enjoy all the other wins against us, as long as we get the most important one. Probably the only time that 1>5!

Good stuff! Can't wait!

Take away from it what you want, but they basically showed their cards last weekend. Don't think the officiating crews won't be aware and watching for some of that kind of stuff this weekend. That includes stuff on UND; Cole Smith's little love tap with his stick (which again resulted in the UMD player hitting the deck) probably should have been a penalty). No need for it. UMD will have to play on skill this weekend (which they are very capable of). But I don't think they will get away with the embellishments or the chippy stuff. After a heated game, with plenty of penalties and controvery, both teams will likely be under the microscope of the officials in the regional. UND needs to eliminate ALL of that from their game to be successful. Play like they did last weekend, and they will be fine. If someone takes a run at Cam (which I highly doubt happens), you help your goalie up, and let the refs deal with dishing out penalties one way, rather than getting drawn into coincidentals. I hope Berry stresses, no retaliation, all week. Stay out of the box, and retaliate on the scoreboard. I know nobody liked the Pionk run last weekend, BUT it is clear it distracted UND at the end of the period, and got UMD back into in the early second.

Does anyone know if Schloss is using the same coin to do a bracket this year? I don't think anyone is as confident of this team as least years team, for obvious reasons. BUT after all of the high talent teams that didn't win a title for so many years, wouldn't it be fitting to win it this year?

haha, Frozen Four week, especially! Productivity down to nothing. Bandwidth used on Siouxsports and other college hockey sites, sky high!

Anyone else feel the week of the NCAA tourney should just be a holiday week, and none of us should have to work? So anxious for Friday!

No point talking about playing Duluth when UND will be playing Harvard in the Frozen Four.

That is what I got. Not sure I want to see that or not, haha. This tourney is so tight though. I wouldn't be shocked if we lost to BU, and I wouldn't be shocked if we won it all. Great tournament.

I don't really understand the no alcohol at the NCAA event thing. Unless we're feeding the beer to underage kids, why does it matter who is actually playing. If you are at an entertainment event, and you are of age, what is the problem?

Agreed. Every group may have some bad fans. In general, if you are nice, most of them will be to. I've actually seen some Sioux fans yelling at a Gopher fan and his daughter who couldn't have been more than 5. That was a long time ago, but pretty ugly. Unfortunately, there are some in every crowd.

Yeah, I really don't understand why that has not been renegotiated at all. Like CBS Sports and the NCHC did. Let Roots sports pick its schedule, then let the schools schedule their broadcasts around that. Can't wait for ESPN3
