bigskyvikes Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 St. Cloud and HarvardThey swept St cloud...wow. Harvard is ranked high also. Quote
Godsmack Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Downing's elbow looked very similar to Minnesota's flying elbow from a few weeks ago against St. Cloud. He tee'd up the Gopher player with the puck and left his feet upon contact. Quote
Godsmack Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 DU isn't doing UND any favors as they're laying another egg against St. Cloud. Down 3-1 in the second. Quote
cberkas Posted December 13, 2015 Author Posted December 13, 2015 Kloss trying to sell a high hit good non-call. Quote
Godsmack Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Gophers really on their heals but still leading late. Quote
SiouxFanatic Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 DU isn't doing UND any favors as they're laying another egg against St. Cloud. Down 3-1 in the second.St. Cloud is up 5-1 now in the 3rd period. Denver offense seems pretty much non-existent. Surprising since Trevor Moore and Danton Heinen were great last year. Quote
808287 Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Gophers really on their heals but still leading late.The gophers are done unless they win the autobid. I can't see how they can now sweep out their B1G schedule and come in above 16th. Quote
Sodbuster Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 The gophers are done unless they win the autobid. I can't see how they can now sweep out their B1G schedule and come in above 16th.The Gophers can fall in a s*** pile and come out smelling like a rose. Quote
Cratter Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) When you play in the Big Ten you don't have much of a chance to increase you're Pairwise rankings because most of the teams are rated so low.The highest rated team is Penn State right now and they split with highest rated team they have played, Notre Dame (#15 in PWR)The WCHA has really fallen off from last year.

Godsmack Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 In addition to no offense, DU's goaltending has become very suspect. St. Cloud's first goal tonight on Cowley came from below the goal line. Quote
burd Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 UW showed some promise against us and occasionally against other teams; hey could give UMich a run in their tournament. The Gophs are always a one-game threat, of course, but it would nice to see UMich come out of there alone. Quote
Tbone Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 I would support Penn State before the ugly hats, that may be aiming too high though for a young program. Quote
tnt Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) The gophers are done unless they win the autobid. I can't see how they can now sweep out their B1G schedule and come in above 16th.I recall people saying the same thing last year when they were further back. They are 20th in the Pairwise now, so beating teams like Penn State and Michigan, along with Harvard possibly, sure wouldn't hurt. I can't figure out how they are ahead of Duluth now when Duluth has a better record and swept them in a home and home series. Four of seven wins coming against Northeastern and Ohio State isn't exactly the elite in college hockey. They have a combined 5 wins. Edited December 13, 2015 by tnt Quote
Cratter Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 UND is at 5th in the Pairwise with a 16-2-2 record (third best win percentage in the country) yet is behind SCSU (14-4-0) and Nebraska Omaha (12-3-1).That's how far you drop losing to Wisconsin. 1 Quote

Cratter Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 And the first part of our schedule was very soft. True.And looking at the second half of the schedule. It's pretty soft too.Huntsville. Colorado College Western Michigan (x4)The toughest games will be the four against Omaha. Quote
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Speaking of Omaha, Avery Peterson just left. He's 20 so should be able to pay in Sioux City the rest of the year. Quote
Sodbuster Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Speaking of Omaha, Avery Peterson just left. He's 20 so should be able to pay in Sioux City the rest of the year.You mean he just bailed on them today?! Quote
UNDBIZ Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 You mean he just bailed on them today?!Schloss posted something about Peterson's brother having health issues. May be a factor in him leaving UNO. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I always thought these ranking made more sense than Pairwise:http://www.masseyratings.com/team.php?t=11590&s=284083Duluth two spots ahead of Minnesota. I tend to look at KRACH. http://siouxsports.com/hockey/rankings/krach/ 2 Quote
Cratter Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I tend to look at KRACH. http://siouxsports.com/hockey/rankings/krach/ The Q and Clouds blow UND's SOS out of the water. Quote
burd Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Be interesting if anyone using this board has seen Providence play. They must have a good one again this year. Gone are the days when we could just shrug off eastern teams other that BC, BU and Maine as having weak schedules. Parity is a good thing, IMO, and I don't think it's just the result of watered down talent. More kids are being developed, and more programs are able to take advantage of that. I don't know what the numbers say about development programs, but it seems that way to the ignorant yours truly. The more high-end college hockey talent we get to see, the better. Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 UND is at 5th in the Pairwise with a 16-2-2 record (third best win percentage in the country) yet is behind SCSU (14-4-0) and Nebraska Omaha (12-3-1).That's how far you drop losing to Wisconsin. Wisconsin is 34th in PWR so it's not as terrible as losing to them last year. Obviously a game you'd like them to win but I think they've made up for it sweeping Denver and Duluth in back-to-back weekends Quote
cberkas Posted December 15, 2015 Author Posted December 15, 2015 So Downing gets 2 games for his high hit, but Seeler gets one for his hit. Quote
