SIOUXELEVENS Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Ok boys a little adversity let's see what this team is made of. If anyone would have predicted this record at the beginning of the year we would have all been giddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momentum changes constantly during almost any hockey game. Sounds like you expect nothing less than NHL Blackhawks vs Bloomington Jefferson Mites C total domination every single game. Honestly the last loss I watched where I thought the effort was there was last year against BU. But to be fair I didn't see the SCSU loss or either game this weekend. No one will ever convince me the Wisconsin and Omaha losses weren't terrible this year. Everything I read about last night's game sounds like we played well though. Its pretty difficult to double up the shot attempts on your opponent and place as bad as everyone makes it sound on this board. Buccigross called the most entertaining game of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you may want to think, this team's effort has been very lackadaisical at times this season. Being swept by a very good DU team isn't the end of the world but UND definitely has some elements of their game that need improving if they want to have any chance of making a run for number 8. You know the opposition has some say in who wins right? Remember who won both games in GF against Denver? Would you feel better if both series were split each weekend instead of the split that happened? My god, relax! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxScore Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Had chances but weren't able to cash in on them and DU's goalie made some big stops as well. A few defensive coverage breakdowns again and DU took advantage of them while Cam wasn't really able to come up with a key save. The powerplay generated some very good chances this weekend but going forward we have to be able to get some goals out of it and not just good chances. Pretty confident the few issues we saw this weekend like defensive coverage at times will be addressed and corrected this week and we will see a Fighting Sioux win over Duluth come Friday night. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Blackhawks, when the ledgies on here get whipped up after a loss, I think maybe they will rise to a panic level of Hawks fans on HFBoards. But then they can never quite get there.

Oxbow6 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Bright side.....If UND drops to a #2 for the NCAAs least we get to see them at the X for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I pray we don't have to play Michigan in the NCAA's. With our "opposing team top line issues", that Connor/Compher/Motte (CCM Line ) would light us up good. Motte has 27 goals and Connor has 22 goals...yowzers. Should be an interesting week of practice. I'm anxious to see how the team responds at home against Duluth. Not a good weekend, but we can hope that they put it past them and get ticked off to go on a run. Go Sioux/Hawks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burd Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I thought the boys played very well tonight. Nice crisp tape-to-tape passing, tight D, solid in goal. Tim was good on the play by play. The power play is heating up. Scored a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put up decent but not great stats to start the year and then suddenly became the best line in the country once Big 10 play started. I wonder why that is. I watched a lot of the Wisconsin-Michigan game and it looked like both teams were skating in slush and Michigan's defensemen are clueless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxScore Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Some of the conversation of Berry with TH: Too much lateral play especially in the 2nd period. Things to learn from this weekend and fix gotta get back on track. Faceoffs a point of emphasis not just centers but wings coverage too. Lost too many tonight end up chasing puck all the time. D spread too wide on the breakaway pass to Moore, shoulda been inside dots, too big of lane. Need to play with a lead that's when we've been most successful, hard to chase the game all weekend. Feels that adversity is good for the team to face if you handle it well and this is a strong group that will do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This made me laugh... like somehow I won't sleep good tonight or something. You know, forums like SS and the live chat are supposed to be places where fans can express opinions openly (right or wrong) but sometimes people forget that. If you want to believe this team is the hardest working bunch of skaters this side of the '80 olympic team, go right ahead.

Irish Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I feel a little like Knute Rockne must have when he told a Notre Dame team at half time "why don't you go out and hit them with your press clippings". Time to bear down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFanatic Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 NCHC parity.... Disappointing weekend, no doubt about that. I'm sure Denver felt the same when they were swept by UND and SCSU in back to back weekends. Things are clicking for them now. Maybe UND will have a chance at having the last laugh. UND has to rise above the setback. Duluth is going to be wanting points next weekend just as much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This made me laugh, telling me you are calm as your toes are hanging over the edge! "Believing the team...." is not what I'm doing, but thinking a team should be undefeated is silly. Yea yea I know, if it was a good loss you would feel better, as if those really happen. I understand hockey teams do lose, maybe you need to understand that? Carry on...
