Godsmack

I’m at a sh*t show of my own right now at Ex Robson Arena so I can’t be too judgmental of others but my god, what happened to St. Cloud tonight???

Is it possible that out of spite towards UND, St. Cloud has decided to tank against DU? (Kidding of course)

Yah, Seville, things did get heated up when Joey Abate speared Jamernik before a faceoff!

DU seems to be sitting pretty at this point. They didn’t lose anyone to the Olympics and while they have to face Duluth and St. Cloud in the coming weeks, both SCSU and UMD will be missing a few key players in those series. Plus, DU wraps up their schedule with 4 games against Omaha and CC, respectfully. I expect DU to win all 4 of those with relative ease.

Glad we kept pace with DU. Speaking of DU, man, they are on a roll! I don’t think they’ve lost since playing here in November and they’re really filling the back of the net. I do think Chrona is their one weak link though.

Wow.

Wow. Okay. It sure doesn’t feel like it.

I wonder what the faceoffs are? We appear to be getting worked at the faceoff dot.

If you’re an Omaha fan, at what point do you start to question coach Gabinet? I know this is only year 4 but I don’t get the sense the program is growing and moving in any sort of direction. They’re kinda staying the same.

I thought he sounded fine but then, this was only my second time seeing them in concert so I can’t really judge. They played the Grudge too with the infamous 25 second scream. Previous was 2001 at Red Rocks. Here’s the set list. I’ll stop talking about Tool here as somebody is apt to lecture us for having an off topic conversation here… https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/tool/2022/broadmoor-world-arena-colorado-springs-co-3b88e0d4.html

I don’t miss the big ice at World Arena. It once played to CC’s advantage in regular season home games during the years under Owens when they were good but it still didn’t lead to NCAA tournament success overall with the exception of the 2005 frozen four season. I think overall, CC ran into trouble in the post season when playing on the smaller sheet against opponents who really tightened up defensively in that one-and-done format. This isn’t a hard and fast rule but it seems very similar to some of SCSU’s struggles in the post season.

I went to the Tool concert last night so I missed the game and wouldn’t you know, UND hands SCSU a big loss. I guess I should try to find another concert to go to tonight for good luck. Glad everyone here got to see the good guys in green win!

I feel like I just got kicked in the Jimmy just now.

Outside of UND, I’m rooting for Western to go far in the tournament. I really like how that team is built. Big, heavy and skilled.

Lots of blue chippahs

I thought I was depressed after UND’s loss and inability to put more than 1 goal in the back of the net…until I just watched CBS Sports’ intermission segment on DU’s recruiting philosophy and strategy.

I’m so pissed off right now. We shoot ourselves in the foot and create much of our own misery and I wish once Berry would publicly show some fire in his media interviews but I guess that’s not his style.

Agreed 100%. And I was being facetious when I said we lost because of a hot goaltender. That was what Hennessy and Berry seemed to infer in the post game interview. Bussi did play well but to your point, we lack finishers. All Swede, no Finnish?

We’re the only team who seems to get the opposition’s A games. (Sarcasm)

Hard listening to Hennessy and Berry right now. We lost due to a hot goaltender.

The team looks like they’re getting worse as the season progresses, not improving.

I’m turning this sh*t off

Question: Will we win a game in 2022?
