AZSIOUX Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 UND split at home vs Duluth while Niagara was swept @ Air Force. The Purple Eagles 3 wins came vs Bentley and two vs Army. They also tied RIT and Sacred Heart. Last non conference series of the season. Pairwise must wins...GO SIOUX UND (6th pairwise as of Sunday am) 13-5-2 6-4-1-0 NIAGARA (59th pairwise/dead last) 3-14-2 3-10-2 Quote

GDPritch Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 If the Sioux even struggle to win (let alone just win) like they did against AF, Bem on the road, and game 1 (the big comeback) vs Lake Superior, then not good. Quote
Redneksioux Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Amazing how weak und's schedule is this year. This has to be the softest schedule they've had since the pairwise has been used. Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Amazing how weak und's schedule is this year. This has to be the softest schedule they've had since the pairwise has been used. Yup, 4 or the worst 7 teams in the country on their schedule, just bad luck though. Quote

siouxnami Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I'm not willing to commit until Goon weighs in. Also can we PLEASE PLEASE call them the "Purple Cobras" ala Dodgeball! Anything less than a sweep is... ...unexpectable? ...unexceptable? ...inexpicable? ...unacceptable? Quote
siouxforce19 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Amazing how weak und's schedule is this year. This has to be the softest schedule they've had since the pairwise has been used. Considering how tough the conference is this year, I think the schedule as a whole balances out alright. Quote
SteveP Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Who knew Wisconsin would be so bad? That made the NC schedule worse. 1 Quote
scpa0305 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Considering how tough the conference is this year, I think the schedule as a whole balances out alright. Agreed. We just cannot even come close to losing against this team. I would like to see Hak be aggresive and let his guys put up big numbers this coming weekend. I don't want him "trying things" just because we are playing a weaker opponent. These are the games our guys can fill the stat sheet, which is always fun. I wouldn't mind seeing Cam play if we blow them out bad on Friday. Quote

IMO I believe Murphy is getting more confident and playing much better now. I'm sure his goal scoring slump will end soon. With that said however I could think of a few players I would have on the PP ahead of him. Quote

Goon Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I think O'D was simply amazing this weekend. Video evidence to prove it. While UND isn't a bunch of saints, UMD is by far one of the dirtiest college hockey teams that I have seen this season. That being said, it was a fun series to watch and there's no way that next weekend's series against NU will be this good. Also, UND "should" take four-for-four over the next two weekends if they play like this did this weekend. Quote
Goon Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Not good, but who really cares? Just gotta get the Ws. Couldn't agree more... 1,000 cheesy goals count just as much as 1,000 highlight reel goals. Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Couldn't agree more... 1,000 cheesy goals count just as much as 1,000 highlight reel goals. Don't get me wrong... I'd love to roll to two 7-0 victories, but the Ws look the same in the pairwise if they are 1-0. Get the sweep... all is well. 1 Quote
SJHovey Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Amazing how weak und's schedule is this year. This has to be the softest schedule they've had since the pairwise has been used. The weakest schedule I recall is Zach Parise's freshman season. Played Canisius 3 times, Brown, two against Niagara, one against BSU and one each against Princeton and Yale, when both sucked. Only decent game was Michigan in an early season tournament. In addition to the neutral ice tournament, the team played only 4 road games before January 10th, and two of those were the aforementioned Yale and Princeton games. Probably the weakest schedule in UND history. Quote
