AZSIOUX Posted October 11, 2015 Author Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) What time did Tim start drinking today, he was trying figure out how many points would be awarded to each team. It's non- conference no points for anyone for the tourney purpose he was. not league or anything like that Edited October 11, 2015 by AZSIOUX Quote
NoiseInsideMyHead Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Is it too early for the Fire Berry threads?http://forum.siouxsports.com/topic/20575-fire-hakstols-replacement/Never too soon. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Agreed. Is it too early for the Fire Berry threads?He should have had them shoot more and hit the goalie less. It's common sense! Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 not good. embarrassing.It's one game in early October. Not worth being upset over. Quote
Emerald joker Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Didnt Maine finish towards the bottom last season but ee still run into the "hot goalie" and missed nets and hit posts, ugh Quote

brianvf Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Sorry, maybe not those items listed.Less hot opposing goalie? Maybe that would have done it. Quote
808287 Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Coach says they are bringing home the hardware, so that's something positive. Time to prep for Bemidji who took down Duluth tonight. Quote
brianvf Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Boeser had 8 SOG, which is more than Maine had as a team thru 2 periods. That's crazy.Once that line starts clicking and Tomek gets healthy, this has the potential to be a scary team. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Haha....that's funny.... coming from the king of the October melt down.Haha....you must have me confused with someone else.I haven't had an "October meltdown" for several years now. My meltdowns happen if we start laying eggs down the home stretch to the playoffs or in the NCHC playoffs because you need to be playing your best hockey during that point of the season.This is one game in October. If this was to happen in February or March, then I would have some concerns. These freshmen have some terrific upside to them. Quote
siouxjoy Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 & Schloss tweets we won on some tie breaker rule - he must be drunk tooEven crazier: Coach Berry himself said that the team was given 3 points for a win and a tie to determine the tournament winner. Bunch of drunks! Quote
bigskyvikes Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Maine tied last night! Maine tied tonight, UND won last night, what can't you guys figure out? Quote
iluvdebbies Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Maine tied last night! Maine tied tonight, UND won last night, what can't you guys figure out?Maine got third. Quote
Siouxman Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 From our vantage point this was not a hot goalie issue. UND fired way too many pucks at the center of the net, right into the goalie. And they missed a number of prime opportunities. He did not have to play spectacular, just make the basic save and not give up an easy rebound. UND dominated this game from start to finish except for very late in the second period when they got tired. Knowledgeable Maine fans recognized that they got outplayed. Unfortunately there were many Maine fans who thought they won an NCAA tournament. They could not understand that this goes into the books as a tie for NCAA purposes. Cam Johnson got a good game under his belt. He played solid, although Maine did not have a ton of shots.This team could do some really good things this year, although the NCHC will provide much better competition than the Icebreaker did. Quote
bigskyvikes Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Maine got third.Exactly...nobody is drunk, UND won the tourny. Quote
iluvdebbies Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Exactly...nobody is drunk, UND won the tourny.Well one guy is....guessing at Judy's. Quote
siouxjoy Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Exactly...nobody is drunk, UND won the tourny.Just to clarify: I was being lippy. Have a great night! Quote
bigskyvikes Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 So true but im sick of hearing that. How do goalies stand on their head so many times against us. Heres a good reason why this happens to the Sioux a lot....maybe "The tougher my opponents, the more they present me with an opportunity to live up to my full potential and play my best". – Pete CarrollTeams/individuals look at the Sioux as a team that would be great to beat, they get up and jacked for that match up!So called target on the back type team. My thoughts anyway... Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 44 saves in your first college start. McGovern for Hobey! Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Haha....that's funny.... coming from the king of the October melt down.No...........that is MafiaMan. Quote
burd Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Haha....you must have me confused with someone else.I haven't had an "October meltdown" for several years now.

If this was to happen in February or March, then I would have some concerns. These freshmen have some terrific upside to them.The Sioux have definitely laid some eggs at the finish, but for years they have been exceptionally good down the stretch. They've built their reputation on that, whether it was accurate or not. Quote
IndyBlackBear Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) I'll disagree with siouxman a bit. NoDak definitely had a bunch of shots that dotted the I on the sweater of Maine's goalie. With almost 50 SOG, that'll happen. But they also made him move side to side a bunch of times. He didn't make any flashy glove saves, but he definitely made some good kick saves on shots following crossing feeds. For a freshman in his first start, the kid had himself a game. I think depth and strength were what impressed most about the Sioux (yeah, I know but I don't care). Every third shift or so, Maine got a line out there that could skate w the Sioux. The other shifts, though... Strength was also key for NoDak. Very apparent on faceoffs and strength in corners forced Maine to counterattack. Almost no cycling 5x5.

IndyBlackBear Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Hopefully those who made the trip enjoyed good hospitality, and didn't leave without sampling some good brews and the best seafood this side of Anchorage.As for fans at the game, lots of casuals unfamiliar w college game. And the diehards are just starved for optimism. It's been a lean couple years since Nyquist turned pro. Jury's still out on whether the new staff can avoid being LSSU-east. I think we all agree: it's encouraging to see freshman playing well. Now that the tie is in the books, here's hoping y'all go on a nice, long win streak. Cheers! 1 Quote
