That song and dance we always hear about we get every teams best is getting old. It's like we just lost to a suck hole B 10 team but hey you don't understand we are UND and we get everyone's best game so it's ok if we suck. I just don't buy it.

He hasn't taken very good care of the puck all season. Too many giveaways. Sanderson is ultra high end ala Cale Makar but it's like his heads somewhere else on some of his giveaways. Granted at his worst he's top ten D in college hockey but he needs to take this team on his back right now because we aren't very good currently.

Losing to a middle of pack B 10 team is not gonna be good for pairwise down the road. Our body of work netter improve or we will be sitting home com national tourney time. The argument can be made that Bemidji and Quinnipiac were quality opponents but I don't see Penn State as very good at all. You just can't give up this many goals and expect to win games.

I disagree even though his play hasn't beeen good so far. There's a reson Berry picked him up. Like I said a good 2 hour skate would do wonders for this team. If I was captain I would call a practice for a good 2 hours of crunches as soon as the plane lands

I disagree about the talent. Berry needs to skate the hell out of these guys and you will see an emergence of their talent. Sanderson is a high end defenseman who for some reason thinks effort is now optional. We are loaded with talented d men and have some very good forwards. Lets be honest too about Driscoll is anyone thinking he still deserves the #1 job the way he's played. We have to score between 4 - 6 goals to win. Not all his fault because our ultra talented d corps thinks they just don't need to hustle especially Sanderson. I just don't understand.

These fans deserved a better effort than this. Pittyful

He's gonna be a 4 year guy and an NHL washout if he doesn't get his s@#t tohether. I'm totally serious that Berry should skate these guys till they puke and fall over

This team needs to be skated for 2 straighthours of crunches to get rid of this attetude that they can just show up and they will win.

I would skate these guys right down to the concrete/

We suck. We can't even beat Penn State. Our defense completely sucks including Sanderson. What the hell happened that we suck so bad.

I know everyone measures success by nattys but winning the NCHC is no small accomplishment. We hung 2 banners this year so please don't belittle that accomplishment.

If you don't reload with good talent you won't even get into the tournament. Our program is very good at developing talent and we will be back next year. I really believe that out of the top 4 NCHC teams anyone can beat anyone on any given night. The teams are that close at the top of the NCHC.

Yes but the coach has a lot of input to the player if they are ready or not. I thought what Monty did was selfish and self serving with Terry and the rest that stayed that year to try win a Natty.

I may be different but I cringe when I see kids that are ready to take the next step to the NHL stay in a program just to try to win a championship for that program i.e. Denver when Monty didn't push his NHLers out of the nest.

The players that are ready should move on to next level. The younger players that need to should stay and develop. We need to have room to bring in our recruits and develop them. We have a good corps of young players for next season. Berry is going to have decide if he brings back any seniors but I doubt they will bring any back. You have to look at what is best for the people sometimes not just the program. Most of the seniors even the role players may have a very good living awaiting them playing in NHL, Sweden, Switzerland etc. Berry will do what is best for the people and the program.

What is the word on JBD and Pinto. I'm guessing they will both sign very soon if they already haven't.

The Ottawa Senators Forum is drooling over both Sanderson and Kleven. Their feeling is Sanderson will be possibly better than Cale Makar and Kleven is going to be a shutdown defenseman with very good O zone skills. I am pretty that next year is the last year we will see these two defenseman in a UND uniform.

This team showed so much heart with their late comeback.

Why can't some people come to grips with the fact that you cannot win a natty every year. We will reload and we will have Gaber, most likely Sanderson and Kleven and a host of others along with some newcomer. It is not the end of the world. Jammer also logged a lot of minutes and comes back as a freshman next season. The sun will rise again tomorrow and UND will still have a good hockey team.

UMASS imo will likely dispatch UMD in semis.

Look at BU and Wisconsin who are loaded this year with high draft picks and are both done just like us. There will be a season again next year and we will reload and return some goood players. For soe players it is time to move on.

Maybe we were not as dominant as was thought.

Nothing to hang our heads about.

One and done is tough to win it all. I think most of us knew this was going to be a tough game as did Duluth.

I think we are seeing more parody in college hockey. It's tough to win 4 in a row in a one and done tourney.
