Twice tonight Jamres breaks away and does not score. Last year James scored.

Wow they are moving the puck great during the power play and they are passing so much better. I did not expect the first seven minutes of the game to look like this.

Thank you hockey gods - UND IS SHOOTING….

I understand there are shooters on the ice for UND, surprise the other team. Shoot, rather than the expected pass-pass. UND can still pass but get the defenders and goalie thinking. Shoot.

Needs shots not always a pass.

Oh boy, it sure does not feel like a win. Yes it works for pair-wise. It shows up in the win column. Still does not feel like a win. But during a hockey season there are going to be some ugly wins. But still .

Midco service must be dial up internet service on a party line.

Recruiting is the answer but if you get recruited and sit on the bench knowing that year after year the Sioux go out and find a fifth year goalie. So fifth year goes away but now the transfer portal. So recruited goalies, why go to UND?

That it a slow start to period 2.

The picture is not very choppy for the interview between periods. But it seems like picture is always trying to catch up with the camera movement.

Ouch camera work.

I signed up for Midco and I am waiting to receive an email back. The problem is I can not be home to watch the game live. NCHCTV, Flo TV, etc. lets a viewer review the game later or even backup the game to the beginning. This does not seem to be the case for Midco. Does anyone have a working knowledge of how MIDCO accommodates or do you know of another location to receive CCHA games on a delayed basis. I went to the CCHATV and it sent me to Midco.

They have great hustle to the puck.

Sweet James 2 goals the first night.

Thought with 4-1 lead we were going to give Hobie the third period. Yes I know there are disadvantages but the upsides are also important.

Oops. Well we get to work on the penalty kill.

Sacha B what a shot. His nickname should be BEE - a hard worker with a sting.

Close out the period.

James James James - this could be the start of a beautiful scoring year for James.

Nice interview with Cameron Berg. Good choice as one of the captains.

Emery is fast becoming my favorite. What a pass.

Will there be crowd noise?

Having moved to and lived 7 years in Southern Arizona, it did not take long to figure out why one extra hour of daylight was not welcomed. By not having daylight savings time, this one more hour of darkness in the evening is helpful. It is damn hot here, today again we were 100°. Right now the sun went down at about 6:15 on daylight savings time it would have been 7:15 pm. When it is hot outside, when the sun goes down it just feels cooler. Most people will go outside on a workday at 6:00 pm and socialize to about 10:00 pm because sleep for the next day helps productivity on the job. During daylight savings time, outside would have less darkness between 6:00 to 10:00 pm.
