siouxforce19 Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Dont they say indefinitely when they dont know how serious the injury is? just my thought i guess Pretty much. It could be a couple games, couple weeks, couple months... Last year when Zane got hurt and was out indefinitely he missed what, 2 games (because of a bye week)? It's just the term they use so they don't have to specify a time frame. Quote

Didn't Zane miss Five games? Clarke Saunders played five games in a row, the last game he played in was against Miami on Feb 14. That was also the last time Clarke started or played for UND. He went 3-2 during that time. Quote
I Ranger Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Whoops, I meant the 11-12 team. Not sure why I got those confused, I need caffeine. That makes sense then. I don't think we will see anything like the 11-12 team ever again. Four walk-ons playing and a D playing forward and still couldn't put out a full lineup. That team overachieved to win the Final Five and become a #1 seed and make it to the regional final. Quote

Dare I say that had UND not played that regional final against Minnesota in St Paul and/or instead been shipped elsewhere, that they would have advanced to the Frozen Four? It was a damn miracle that that M*A*S*H unit went as far as it did. Quote

It was a damn miracle that that M*A*S*H unit went as far as it did. Yeah, that was the least disappointed I've been after UND's season ended. Don't get me wrong, I was still not happy but knew that team left everything on the ice and gave everything they had. It just sucked it had to be at the hands of the rodents. However, BC wiped away Pride on Ice easily enough 2 weeks later. Quote

That was also the last time Clarke started or played for UND. He went 3-2 during that time. Since the amount of games Clarke played wasn't my point I didn't look it up. I only remembered the Denver games. My point was "indefinite" basically means an unknown period of time. Quote

stoneySIOUX Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Yeah, that was the least disappointed I've been after UND's season ended. Don't get me wrong, I was still not happy but knew that team left everything on the ice and gave everything they had. It just sucked it had to be at the hands of the rodents. However, BC wiped away Pride on Ice easily enough 2 weeks later. I remember looking across the ice at my buddy who was sitting in the opposite corner and we did the shoulder shrug. That's NEVER a response that either one of us have ever had to UND's season ending. Same exact reaction. Quote

It was a damn miracle that that M*A*S*H unit went as far as it did. I think there was a good possibility that would have happened. Unfortunately, I just knew there was no chance UND would beat Minny two games in a row at the X especially after the way the first game ended. Quote

The Green Bay regional could have had UND as the #1 seed against Cornell in place of Michigan along with Ferris State/Denver in the other match-up. I would have liked UND's chances with that bracket.

I would have liked UND's chances with that bracket. Absolutely. Ferris last year was WAY better than the one that won that regional, IMO. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 How about that loaded Toews led UND team that got absolutely lit up by BC? That was one of the worst feelings I've had watching a game ever. I've never seen an egg of that size laid before. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Correction. Oshie led team. The year before with Toews and Porter also hurt quite a bit because of his they were rolling. Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Correction. Oshie led team. The year before with Toews and Porter also hurt quite a bit because of his they were rolling. Yeah but at least the Toews put the puck in the net. Something the Oshie led team failed to do in Denver(well unless you count the Marto goal late to avoid being shutout). Quote
NOCO SIOUX Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 After seeing N. Schmaltz today. I would say its gonna be a while before he plays. His left wrist is in a brace and he didn't use his left hand at all. Very deliberate in his movements protecting his wrist. Just my observations. Quote

His left wrist is in a brace and he didn't use his left hand at all. Very deliberate in his movements protecting his wrist. Just my observations. Sounds like a sprained wrist. Any confirmation out there on the actual injury? Quote
The Sicatoka Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 OK, so they solved the "slow start to season" issue and replaced it with "slow start to games". I'm interested in how they respond to the cold lesson received last night, namely: "You need to play with intensity for more than the last 8 minutes of the game." Quote
burd Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Jordan S is definitely a high-end talent and has been big for us, but watching him so far this year makes me hopeful he will stick around for next year. Nick helps, of course, but he needs to improve in his own zone, IMO. Quote

Jordan does not seem quite as confident as last year. Quote

Nick helps, of course, but he needs to improve in his own zone, IMO. I agree although I'm not sure that carries much weight as far as him coming back next year. He certainly has a lot to improve on in his own end but that isn't and never will be his strong suit. In my opinion he needs to get a lot stronger to be NHL ready. Hopefully playing with his brother one more year gets him to come back. Quote

AZSIOUX Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Sounds good! @SchlossmanGF: Nick Schmaltz is still out, but UND doesn't think it's going to be a longterm deal. Stay tuned WJC fans. 1 Quote

Oxbow6 Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 I sure hope he is back well before the WJC. If he doesn't play for UND before the WJC I would hope he decides not to and doesn't play in the WJC. Quote
