I think Schmaltz, Mattson and Simpon (Dillan has been their best D man this year) will make significant strides next year as well. Their D core will be just fine. Let those young guys fill out even more.

Someone else will pick it up....they always do. I'm guessing we'll see Mark Mac., Parks, Rocco, etc have good seasons. Our team next year won't have nearly the talent we have this year, however, it has gotten to their heads this year as they are underachieving to say the least.

Mitch has been below average...couple pipes and a goal but he looks lost. As for Mark...he's such a good player, he needs to play with parks and Rowney....end of story. Let them gel before the tourney. We'll make quick work of the next four games anyway.

4 points has to happen. Then 4 against MSU the following weekend; the charge begins.

Decent weekend, great Saturday. All in all, this team must find consistency right now. I don't care how many PP's UND had on Saturday...nobody would have beat them that night. All there line played well and the defense also played well.

just came on...nice

I had basketball...now just in la la land.

Duluth scored. That Farley kid is good.

Why isn't this game on Root....missed our first goal

The end of the second half surges.

That was fast.

Im on Roots...no Sioux game...yet.

Gothberg....although he looked shaky last night. Clarke didn't look much better. I honestly could care less who they start. Tonight is a must win.

I have Dish and there is definitely some meaningless basketball game on.

Negative....but true.

Goaltending was terrible....but the team in front of them gave up 40+ shots I believe....don't forget to mention that.

They started great and then laid down. Typical from this team. They really never play a full 60 minutes; they have the talent to win a title....but they just won't. Debbie Downer this morning.

I'm really hoping for 4 pts this weekend....time to go on a tear.

I was also at the game....HF did not look very good last night. EP is good but HF made many mistakes (including Gersich himself). I have seen him play twice now (Wayz. & EP) and here are my takeaways: Extremely good skater, his skating ability is probably better than any high school kid in the country....honestly. He also plays more physical than I originally thought, he laid out a bunch of guys last night. Some things he must improve on are his stickhandling, playmaking, and decision making. I know EP was much deeper than HF, but I believe Gersich was -3 after the first period. All in all, I'm glad he chose UND now he has to go play juniors. In looking at his stats, he does much of his damage against extremely weak competition. But I guess anyone would.

I would too....but I would rather have have a 1/2 seed and get that first win.

Well, L. Johnson started off the year slow however I thought he was going to turn it on for the second half. He heated up a little bit but now is in a super slump. Unfortunately I think he may have a terrible draft year.

I do not believe he is leaving because of the physical aspect of high school hockey..hahaha. Yes he's been the target of some cheap shots...but that is simply because of how much press he gets. Once he is in the USHL there are players on every team with that much press. I didn't see how this debate started but it isn't a good one.

That was a bad fall there.

Agreed. High school is fun but I've seen some pretty talented kids stunt their development by "wanting to play with the friends".

Sorry I don't read every post. Anyway, Shane is roughed up a tad....but I'm guessing he can handle it. If he doesn't bounce after this year it will be a mistake. He has to play in the USHL next year....he has accomplished everything a high schooler can (no way HF will win state in the next year or so).
