Schloss and Feldman give a good scouting report on their weekly UND hockey podcast. Cornell returns nearly their entire lineup this year and 88% goals scored. Only lost two players. One of those was a third string goalie. The one major departure was Gabriel Seger who put up 44 points last year.

I agree. I’ll take a 3-2 start against some of the best college hockey has to offer over say, CC’s 4-0 start. So far, home against NMU and two on the road at Anchorage. No disrespect to those programs and credit CC-you play who’s on your schedule but given their non-conference opponents this year, they better hope to win most if not all their games against some very low ranked teams or it could hurt them down the stretch if they find themselves on the bubble. UND’s schedule is as we know just absolutely brutal but hopefully it is preparing them well and setting them up for success as they enter difficult league play.

Kristo’s penalty shot goal at Magness was a fond memory as well.

CC learned that the hard way last season. Despite several quality wins against teams ranked #1 at one point or another, against Minnesota, DU, and UND, losing-at home-to Augustana hurt and likely is what cost them a tournament spot.

So despite a 3-2 record, I would imagine a high Pairwise still given the strength of our opponents? A loss tonight shouldn’t penalize us too much, right? No offense to CC but they are poised to start out 4-0 but against UAA and NMU. Can’t think that that merits more reward than our first three opponents.

Does anyone have video of Dixon Ward doing his one more shift? I’d love to see it.

Was either Schmaltz or Kuntz who commented in the post game interviews that they’re a high skill team who tried baiting UND after whistles in order to play 4x4 hockey, open up the ice a bit for them and their style of play.

Was it the 2018/2019 season we had so much trouble scoring goals? Out play teams, have the puck in the opposition’s zone for inordinate amounts of the game, yet struggled mightily to score.

Yep, you’re absolutely right. UND would’ve challenged regardless, they just needed a stoppage of play to challenge the missed infraction, even if Mankato hadn’t have scored.

Gotcha. So the infraction must’ve happened uncalled, Mankato somehow gains possession of the puck and scores and then Berry challenges the missed call. Right on. Thanks!

I didn’t watch the game. Can someone explain the sequence of events that led to both the major penalty AND the goal being disallowed? I can’t quite wrap my head around how one thing led to another or were somehow related.

If the tables were turned, would we UND fans feel the same way as this guy? I don’t know, after reviewing the hit, it seemed like a legit penalty call to me, and it was made by CCHA officials so I give them credit for calling it.

The audio and video are all messed up on the highlights.

UND insider has the game highlights posted out on YouTube

And if anyone wants to stream my NORAD league game on Sunday, we will pay YOU to watch!

Typically, the CCHA posts video highlights on their website.

Like I’ve been consistently saying on this board all along, Berry for Spencer Penrose

I gather one has to pay for this Midco sports streaming service to watch the game?

Pushed around? Didn’t UND get a little bigger and heavier this year?

Letter grade for how UND has looked so far?

Shots 21-3

The Dogs getting run out of their own building. 3-0, Gophers about twelve minutes in and shots 16-3.

I was at that game. Crazy night! A buddy of mine who really isn’t much of a college hockey fan went with me and was just absolutely thrilled, shocked, amused, and happy to have attended that game in person! I guess DU got the last laugh at the end of the day but that was and is a very memorable game in UND lore for sure.

I agree 100% with you when it’s UND scoring against CC! When it’s DU, not so much!

He has one of the most memorable UND goals in my mind. I wanna say it was his sophomore season at CC. He went 200 feet and beat all five CC defenders and scored. It was a thing of beauty.
