Via Goon48, video of the slashing penalty called on O'Donnell
Wow...
-
Skill wise im not, he's played a handful of games in his career. Go sioux. That 4th line will be interesting though
I agree with you as far as skill goes.
Even though Sanderson has only played in a handful of games, he still has over a year of experience in Hak's system as a forward. I thought that would give him the nod for a fourth line, grinder role.
It will be interesting to see how Ausmus and Panzarella do though.
-
I'm a little surprised not to see Sanderson on that fourth line in place of Ausmus or Panzarella.
-
Are they rated ?
No
-
I've read many times that Panzarella and Ausmus are considered to be defensive defensemen. Wouldn't it make more sense to put Mattson (like Oxbow6 suggested) and/or Thompson at wing temporarily?

Gothberg in goal to start the second period.

Has anyone heard if any GF bars/restaurants will be showing the online feed this weekend?

MafiaMan...I wanted to make sure you got the PM I sent you. I would like a black and green hat...both with the same moniker (Laker). Thanks!
-
I would like one black hat with moniker (Laker).
-
Are there pictures available of the finished hats? I cant find one. If no, is there a reason one cant be posted?
Approximate cost?
I'm interested in a hat, but I'm wondering about the answers to the questions above as well.
I seen on another page that there are four color options. Based on the feedback from the first order, has there been a consensus on which color looks the best?
In addition, would you provide a brief description of the hat (material, lettering/logo, etc.)? I'm sure that information is already in this thread, but I haven't found it yet.

I will take Tambellini for tonight.
On a side note, Schlossman changed the second goal last night to O'Donnell (it was initially given to MacMillan). However, USCHO still credits MacMillan.
-
I'm just curious if anyone knows which player (MacMillan or O'Donnell) officially got credit for the second UND goal last night. It appeared to me watching live on television (and the initial replays) that O'Donnell shot it over the net, the puck hit the boards and came back in front of the net, and MacMillan poked it in the goal. Everything I read initially gave the goal to MacMillan.
However, Schlossman's story on last night's game credits O'Donnell for scoring the second (and third) goal.

I'm guessing Landon Peterson started in goal for Wisconsin. If so, I'm surprised by tonight's game because he was pretty solid last year. Every goalie has an off night every once in a while I guess...

Bottomline: Zane or Clark will have to be huge early and someone will have to pop one in to quiet the crowd to give us a chance. The freshman in the lineup can't play like freshman this series. If we parade to the box, it will be a 5-1 beatdown or worse.
I agree. I think the beginning of this game will be key. Miami should have a good crowd there (NCHC opener, homecoming weekend, and #1 ranking).
A couple of early goals by Miami would keep the crowd "in the game." In contrast, no early goals by Miami should boost the confidence of our young defensive players.

Mark MacMillan

It appears that someone at the Sioux Shop has accepted the challenge.
-
Against Miami on the road I suspect that Panz and Ausmus will be in as there is mor eof a need for defensive d-men.
It wouldn't surprise me if Panzarella was in there, but he had some issues on Friday night.
-
Miami definitely has some offensive playmakers. This may expose some of the inexperience we have on defense.
I'm curious to see what our defensive lineup will look like on Friday. Barring injury or suspension, I think it's likely that Simpson and Schmaltz will play every game.
That leaves four spots (assuming Hakstol dresses six defensemen). Like many other users, I wasn't very impressed with Mattson this past weekend. However, I think his experience gives him the advantage over the freshmen early in the season.
With Mattson in, that leaves three spots. Of the four freshmen, I was most impressed with Stecher this past weekend. He made some obvious mistakes, but I thought he was aggressive and played well overall. I think he earned himself a spot. I also noticed LaDue more on Saturday night. He was more aggressive with the puck and did some good work on the PK. So I think he earned himself a spot on Friday as well.
I think the sixth D spot is a toss-up right now between Ausmus and Thompson. I think both players showed some positive things this weekend.
-
Simpson-schmaltz
Ausmus-ladue
Thompson-stecher
Like many other users on here, I wasn't very impressed with Mattson last night. However, I have a feeling that Hakstol will want his "experience" in the lineup with all of the young guys on defense (at least at the beginning of the season).
That said, I think Ausmus, LaDue, or Thompson will be sitting out instead of Mattson.
-
Can we all agree that Mitch should be wearing a suite tomorrow?
I liked his aggressiveness (even though he drew a penalty right away), but he didn't really make any plays. In fact, that first line didn't really get much going.
-
I was impressed with Stecher tonight. I think he stood out (in a good way) multiple times.

It appears that Ausmus and Thompson did not make the U.S. World Junior team (http://www.uscho.com...-junior-roster/), but a majority of the players on the preliminary roster play in the NCAA.
Does anyone know if Ausmus or Thompson had a realistic chance of making the team? I read that they were both invited to the evaluation camp this past summer.
