AZSIOUX Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 The only two names I heard last night were Lucia and Lee. Shut them down and it's a UND sweep @ UND Puck drops little over 2 hours. Go Sioux! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxbow6 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Clark was huge last pm to steal one IMO. He'll have to be even better for UND to get the sweep. Paging Rocco...paging Rocco! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Can't be happy with their play yesterday. One official being in the right position away from a tie, and one goaltender away from a loss. Forget about Friday, go and get a sweep against a good team on the road. PS: When was the last time before last night that we could say a UND goaltender stole a game? Nice to be on the other side of that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Gothberg in the nets this afternoon. Kind of surprised by this, but he played well his last time out. A better effort is needed by everyone around him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxhockey1978 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 not sure if i like the call on switching goalies consider how well he played last night. Prove me wrong coach Hak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Maybe its a move to try and keep Saunders fresh, and not make him the workhorse so early in the year. Could be a wake up call to the team as well. May need to step up their play a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightingsioux4life Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Gothberg in the nets this afternoon. Hak has always been obsessed with the goalie rotation system, regardless if one of them is playing better than the other. Thus, the puzzling number of splits for our team year after year in the first half. Gothberg has not shown he is ready for this level, while Saunders is showing that his numbers with Alabama-Huntsville were legitimate. I predict a loss tonight, with one or two soft goals let in by Gothberg. Prove me wrong, kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After playing nightly for Huntsville will little chance to win and facing 40+ SOG I doubt Clark is going to get worn down being this team's go to guy.

The reason they are starting Gothberg is that Hak wants to have two goalies in case one of them gets hurt. But In this case, I would rather see Saunders start...Saunders was a beast last night against the Irish.

siouxforeverbaby Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I kinda like the goalie rotation. We did that in Phil's first two years and both goalies were still "fresh" come Feb/Mar. We didn't do that in his last two years or the first year after he left and Phil and Eids were both tired when Feb/Mar rolled around. I would rather see them rotate now and have them next spring, than have them get tired or hurt now and not have one of them then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightingsioux4life Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 And, in case anyone thinks I am one of those "Fire Hakstol" trolls, Blais had the same fixation with Josh Sievebeida in 2002. He kept putting him in there week after week and he was a sieve week after week. It was enough to drive me to drinking, and I don't drink. And no, I am not comparing the two; Gothberg is much more talented and has much more upside. I believe that Gothberg will be a good goaltender in time; I just don't feel confident with him right now.

Prove me wrong, kid. hard not to agree. like I said earlier it will take 3-4 goals to win this afternoon and they didn't show me anything last night that says they can put that many on the board tonight. in his last two starts gothberg has had two bad periods(3rd against BU and 1st against Duluth) one bad period today and it is game over as we don't have the offensive to overcome that against a really good defensive team.

UND is winning w very good goaltending despite poor D and timely goal scoring due to great individual plays. IMO that isn't a sustainable recipe for consistent winning. We need to tighten up on D and regain our presence in the offensive zone to have a chance in 45 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what anybody says. getting outshot isn't a good thing on a consistent basis. the more shots you put on net the more opprtunities you have to get lucky bounce or score off a rebound, etc. it will catch up to us sooner or later.

When is the last time that won a team a national championship? Outside of when Alfie Michaud went unconscious for Maine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passit_offthegoalie Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 The other obvious reason to switch up goalies is to give the Irish a different look, in case they identified a weakness on Saunders last night. It keeps the Irish from getting comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
