Ole made some very interesting and good points about Omaha’s d men and how they like to play vs how they were forced to play thanks to UND’s hard forecheck.
I like Ole's color commentary.

I definitely remember that, but I remember Hobey Duncan, too. I could be wrong. It's been nearly frickin' 15 years lol. Mind blowing.
Yes the two chants likely happened simultaneously. Not even eastern bias could deny Duncan the Hobey.

Are we talking for the fans to chant at the games? Ala "Ho-bey Dun-can"?
Pinto-bey took me a minute, but once I got it, I LOLed.
Hobey Baker(ed) Pinto Beans?
LOL
The Duncan chant as I remember was just HOBEY BAKER every time he scored.

Oh, so now this is considered. This was my point, the one I got hammered for. If the coaches don’t manage things, and the refs don’t manage things, the players will manage things and it always leads to this kind of stuff. Chirping doesn’t get it done so they resort to cheap @ss crap like this. I’ll just sit down now and let the experts carry on about old school, Eddie Shore hockey... carry on...
Has it come to this with Denver

They should have 4 games against CC
CC has Cruikshank back and usually plays Denver pretty tough. Denver is going to have to pull it together because if the season were to end today they would face Duluth in the first round of the NCHC tourney. These next 4 games against CC for Denver are going to be huge as far as seating for the tourney.

DU is a darn good team and even though they will most likely have to win the NCHC tourney, any team that draws them in a one and done better take note.
I don't see DU running the table at the NCHC tournament. I think their D corps is suspect, Chrona has been average at best which means they will have to out score teams and the NCHC is too good a league to do that 3 games in a row. In other words bye bye Denver.

Good teams find ways to win when they aren't at their best and that is what UND did this weekend. Especially in the 1st tonight I thought we just didn't look sharp at all. Beat to too many pucks, not connecting on passes, giveaways, indecisiveness, and blind passes for turnovers. It did get a little better as the game went on but still nowhere near what this team is capable of. Powerplay really looked off, just no rhythm at all and a half second slow with everything. Thome looked a little shaky at times like the 1st goal but stepping in to a tough situation he got the job done.
Thome seemed to settle in more as the game went on. He seemed to be getting into his zone where he doesn't use alot of extra movement and use his size to his advantage. A lot of pressure when you're backing up scheel who is arguably the top goalie in the country.

Reminds me of the dude from grand forks who went viral for his reaction to the Vikings missed field goal.

Bingo! If anyone has been undisciplined of late it would be Mismash, but I still love his game. He’s a guy from the Minneapolis area who was highly recruited by the hometown Gophers but chose to be a Sioux instead. Hmmm.
On the second call on Hain he was about to gain a step on the d man and got pushed into Chrona. Somewhere Hain found some extra speed he didn't have last year.

I would say the the hard areas include the corners, the low slot, behind the net and never included the goal crease (a protected area) one of them.
I would have a different opinion of Hain's two penalties last night if they were lazy stick penalties. We need Hain down the stretch because he is what Sioux hockey is all about. I personally wouldn't change anything about his game. Ticky Tack calls imo.

I have always liked Hain's game. His play last night to me was reminiscent of VandeVelde going to the net. Denver has become a primadonna team IMO. In order to beat teams like Duluth in the tourney you have to have hard nosed players like Hain who will sacrifice everything to go to the hard areas and score greasy goals.
How many times have you heard coaches say in a tight game that it's gonna be a greasy goal that win's this game. Hain will score those greasy goals.

Brad Berry has been a part of that hard-nosed Sioux tradition for much of his adult life and mentions it often. I trust his judgment.

I've been following Sioux hockey for an equally long time and have seen too many times when undisciplined play screwed up our game. Can't go the distance in the NCAAs with men in the box from undisciplined play.
I would take one Gavin Hain before I'd take ten Bobby Brink's. Hain was really amped up last night. If the puck is in the area he goes after it like a junkyard dog. He just needs to adjust his angle a little and he'll avoid the fives for goalie contact.

I hope Sanderson stays for another year but I don't think he will. He's NHL ready.
I sure hope he stays 1 more year. This guy is in my mind the next Cale Makar. Makar wasn't even at Sanderson's level his freshman year. Ottawa Has some dandy players coming up the pipeline via UND.

Yeah they’ve been doing that for years. Along with their other antics. They get away with more crap than any other team in the league.
I know I think it's part of their game plan. It does rattle a lot of goalies.

Wouldn't be surprised in Hain gets a game suspension for tomorrow.
Duluth runs our goalie a couple times a game and hardly ever gets called for it.

Two years ago people were complaining because we weren’t getting to the hard areas to score goals, and now we want to bench someone for doing that. It isn’t like the Mismash major. Bench guys for the lazy stick penalties, not for getting to the net. Yes, he has to be careful, but you can’t tell someone to tiptoe around the net.
Hain goes to the hard areas. I like his game tonight but goalies like chrona are gonna dive and embelish to get the penalty. DU Coach should skate Chrona and Brink for being ballerinas not hockey players.

My bold predictions:
At least one facepalm worthy bad penalty, and we’ll sing ...
Louie, Louis, oh yeah, you’ve got a goal now ...
I’m going out on a limb and say we have limited penalties tonight. I was going to say no penalties but then I thought about it for a minute.

They do make a valid point in their story and comments that taking all these penalties could really cost us come tournament time. I think all of us on this board would agree that UND has taken way too many penalties this season and need to cut that out of their game the rest of the way.
We have beat ourselves with too many penalties in almost all of our losses.

Denver looked good this weekend but that was against an Omaha team that hasn’t recovered fully from covid protocol impacts. We’ll know by the end of the first period, game one.
In game 2 in Denver they absolutely hated when we came out and played a very physical game against them. That Caponi was a spaz case and was trying to take runs at our players all night. If we play like we did in game 2 in Denver I think we will be ok.

Need to work on clearing up rebounds, goalie playing the puck, puck support, winning the puck battles, and stop taking stupid penalties.
Scheel isn't gonna stop playing the puck. I don't see his playing the puck as a negative. He is one of the only goalies in the league who can play the puck. Scheel is our back bone. I don't remember who Scheel was trying to spring up the middle with that pass tonight but a split second difference and he sends him in in the clear. I just cannot look at his puck playing as a negative. Most coaches in this league will tell you sweeps at home and splits on the road is what you hope for to have a shot at Penrose. We are a very above average team and sometimes you're gonna lose games that's just the way it is.

When there was still fighting in the game there wasn't all this cheap crap. Now there really aren't any repercussions for a lot of these cheap shots and slough foots etc. being the players are not allowed to do any policing.
