Goon

I believe it is in the NHL.

I like that song.

I am going to hold Dave to that prediction. Sweep.

Hmm. A couple of Marijuana references.

IRC, he's hurt or dinged up right now.

I agree, too. The goals may come in bunches.

This year, they're buying into what the coaching staff is telling them. I see a big improvement in play in all three ends of the ice. Positionally, I think players are left aft to get caught up ice. They don't give up and they keep pushing. Their gaudy possession numbers are backing this up.

I like the forward group UND has. I am beginning to see what the coaching staff is trying to do. This team is very fast. Very good skaters. They forecheck aggressively. The next couple recruiting classes are pretty good. Collin Adams is showing a very nice skill set. I like Kawaguchi’s skills.

Normally that play works, but against Weber State they were so fast, and they sniffed it out.

Friday. Jones Saturday Mismash

These pictures made me laugh. Berry after the Jones goal was waived off. He wasn't happy. Second, the common theme the first few weeks of the 2018-19 season.

He's a former NHL player.

Thanks.

Here are a few pictures that I took last night. Looks Like Casey Johnson came close to scoring his first goal of the season.

Hopefully, it’s not too bad.

The Defense is wearing the Vandals down. They are getting to the QB.

UND needs some speedy receivers. Not having Izzy hurts.

He’s hurt too?

Evan Holm is fast.

This stadium looks like a dump. Is it really as bad as it looks on TV?

I believe that you can't load up on first-round draft choices and expect to win. You need to have some chemistry and some solid four year players. Also, you need to have guys that do the dirty work, like kill penalties. Check top-line players. Guys like Rhett Gardner come to mind. Obviously, you want high-end talent, but you need the role players, too. I think the continuous turnover has finally caught up with them. Look what happened to UND the last couple of season with the early departures.

Here are a few pictures from last night's game.

I asked Erik Martinson why the goal was waved off, he told me it was goalie interferene.

That rink is a dump. It's not even up to the level of Purpur Arena.
