You said it thru first period and a half. pathetic display.

We hit 27 treys in last 3 halves. That’s 9 a half snd one every 2 min 20 seconds. minutes. Wow. Hot shooting.

Great point. Ass whupped in a few games, just like Vikes also.

Yoy, you nailed it. With that schedule and their putrid defense I foresee a 4-6 win season unless defense makes a big turn-around (it was supposed to this season…).

I wish it was but in in retrospect, looking at your comment (3 months ago), it certainly isn’t. It’s still getting worse IMO. Other than football being competitive (aim high, had another one and done playoff appearance) and same for women’s hoops (goal is to finish 3rd or 4th in conference play, the program still lags way behind the two SD teams), sports at UND is in shambles. The crown jewel, hockey, under Berry’s tenure has now returned to the early 90s and early/mid 70s. Volleyball started on the upswing following another disastrous season but had a lengthy losing streak to finish out the season), while soccer and softball both continued to sit at or near the bottom in conference play. Sigh, how long ago the 2016-17 (?) sports season seems now.

Hah! While Duluth is saying finally a cupcake on the road. Tie games both nights would be appropriate.

Yup. Just like last season too but one could very well argue SDSU should have made NCAA along with USD. Actually, I think SDSU last season was a better 2nd place team (conference) than USD is this season

Isn’t Carl the goalie coach? You’ve seen our goal keeping this season? Why would he be promoted to HC then?

But both DeRidder and the other goalie have each had ample chances this season to grab hold of #1 net-minder jjob but both have struggled mightily. Lather, rinse, repeat. Groundhog Day.

You said it. Me since ‘77 when I moved to GF and believe your statement still holds true.

Which goalie though? We make a lot of them look good.

You nailed it, had last night's goal counted for UND then likely the W Mich goal tonight would not have been overturned. Even Steven although the refs really effed it up worse Fri night with reversal of UND's goal (total garbage on their part).

Alex may be young and not from UND territory but he sure knows who his audience is, smart lad.

Agree, vs Mich F4 semi-final toughest loss I remember and I've seen a few over many years. It made it even tougher cus that team was so very good. Was at Xcel to watch game and we won everything but the score. Then we w/o doubt beat the *&%^! dawgs the next night for our 8th natty (and not their first). That really hurt.

4 tix section 314 for sale < face value Fri vs Denver. Can sell in pairs.

Agree, nobody on this team has any business going pro early ("strike while the iron is hot', huh/WTH?) but could there be one or two promising underclassmen transferring elsewhere in light of this dumpster fire we have and that is not really looking promising next season barring bringing in a capable scorers (not likely)? Hope effin not!

Great point, it is surely double-speak.

Agree, meaning we need a new coach.

Yup, barely finished over .500 but got better as the season went on (unlike some other ND university D-1 team) to win conf tourney and qualify for the NCAA.

Hey, fair point. In retrospect, we almost seem to do better 5 on 5 than with a man advantage so perhaps you're on to something.

A few more seasons like these last two and we just might be.....

What? No "hot goalie"?

To be honest, I'm gonna go down the middle between you and Mafia Man. Not sure they're a top 10 team as they are in the PW (probably should be around #12 or so). I say this; if this series is at home and the way we carried most of the play for at least 4 of the 6 periods then we sweep Denver. However, Denver gets great goal tending against us (all season long save for our 1 win), is a really good home team at mile high altitude, and we really struggle to score (I assume more so on the road vice at home) so really no surprise this wknd. However, we lose to Canisius twice so did not grab home ice.

I gotta think it was sarcasm. Your season is on the line, you are offensively challenged, of course you pull the goalie.
