hrkac Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I'd go with the lineup from last Friday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passit_offthegoalie Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I'd go with the lineup from last Friday night. Or different lineup, but roll 3 lines, again. Sometimes i think guys can get into a better groove that way. Maybe put the 4th line out every other rotation so guys don't get too tired.

bcblues Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Some of them could take the penalty box? I jest.....I jest! We can always hope. So, how long will we maintain a (semi) full roster (halloween parties and all....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I think one thing that last year did for sure was develop a fourth line for this years squad. Pattyn got valuable minutes, and I think he'll lead an extremely gritty fourth unit the entire season that should see a lot of time. If you break down a twenty minute period into shifts of roughly 35-40 seconds you have roughly 30 shifts a period. If your fourth line can take maybe five of those shifts you've got a good chance to win the game. At the same time, if you can get them on the ice in the third period to spell your top units three to four times it makes all the difference in the world. If you're up a few goals in the third period, you can roll four and save some gas in the tank for Saturday. In the playoffs last year you could see which team had more able bodied forwards the day before at the X. Minnesota was the better team, but UND ran out of gas.

NOCO SIOUX Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Is the game showing up on anyone's DirecTV for Friday Night. I see it on 626 for Saturday Night but it is not showing on any channel for Friday night. I know 623 is FCS Central, just wondering if anyone has seen what exact channel the game will be on for Friday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackheart Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 It's on FCS Central at 7:30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Last Friday doesn't mean squat this Friday or this Saturday. These are four must points on the way to bigger things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are short shifts...although, I agree that a 4th line that can pick up big time minutes is key- top players on the top line should be skating 20-22 minutes including special teams, second line should be getting 18-20 minutes, checking 12 or so, and 4th line 8 or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Kristo will have one huge game this weekend. My guess is he goes off Saturday after getting his legs under him tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wisconsin Sioux Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 It will be great to have the captains out on the ice. Will the suspensions motivate and solve any future issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously your fourth line is given a lot shorter leash than your first line. The life of a fourth liner is to keep a cycle grind shift going, or get the puck out of your own end, dump it in there end, and get the heck off the ice.

sioux rube Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I totally expect 2 lopsided games this weekend. Sioux will win by a total of 8 goals when all is said and done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think UND comes out and rolls Anchorage the first game, but the second game is a lot closer. I don't care what the score is either night, just get two wins.

MissSioux85 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Via UNDSID on twitter Friday's @UNDMHockey game will be on DirectTV 623 and Saturday's will be on 626. Sunday's @UNDWHockey game will be on 623. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I think Anchorage rope-a-doped us last weekend, trying to get UND to think this weekend will be easy. Seriously,if they are playing their slowdown game, they could be in the games and with a great goaltending effort, who knows. I'm hoping this years squad has a take no prisoners attitude right from the start, and keep their foot down on the pedal should they get an early lead.
