Snake 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. It's an interesting thought, but I just don't think anyone plays rope-a-dope to start the season. Teams are too busy trying to build momentum and find their identity to be messing around like that - especially a team like AA who really doesn't have the horses to rope anyone.

SiouxScore Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 My guess of what lines may look like tonight Kristo-Knight-Grimaldi MacMillian-Rowney-O'Donnell St.Clair-Gaarder-Rodwell Chyzyk-Pattyn-Caggiula Forbort-MacWilliam Mattson-Schmaltz Simpson-Gleason Gothberg Saunders Maris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 My guess of what lines may look like tonight Kristo-Knight-Grimaldi MacMillian-Rowney-O'Donnell St.Clair-Gaarder-Rodwell Chyzyk-Pattyn-Caggiula Forbort-MacWilliam Mattson-Schmaltz Simpson-Gleason Gothberg Saunders Maris Agree with your 1st and 2nd forward lines. Pattyn will center St. Clair and Rodwell. Gaarder moves down to center the 4th line. That is not your normal college 4th line. Gaarder is a poor man's Oshie. Chyzyk is better than I anticipated and Caggiula has some nasty to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I wrote "Seriously" to begin the next sentence. I was trying to make the point that others have, that we didn't get Anchorage's best effort, and we better be ready for a different team, or at least one that sticks to what they do best.

From listening to the press conferences, it's apparent Hak feels AA played a poor game last Friday. Hopefully the message is conveyed to the young men this weekend.

sioux rube Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 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. I agree. I could care less what the scores are but I just have a hunch they dominate both games.

Siouxmusic Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 That 3rd line has great potential. Rocco has some work to do on his face-offs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
