Boeser playing with ANYONE will result in production. We saw the potential of the Jost to Boeser combination. Poganski and Gardner are in a league above everyone else. Physically and mentally they are game changers and wear down the opponents. Gardner's quick-release goal on Friday shows why I expect 15 from him this year. Defense is going to be a work in progress, although TPoolman and Ausmus are ready and able. They are going to have to log a lot of minutes. CPoolman was the most up to task besides our top two d-men. We definitely are going to struggle defensively this year (compared to last years potentially best ever UND defensive core). As for goaltending, Cam looks up to the task and will continue to be steady Eddie. Obviously wasn't tested much, but looked poised as ever. Biggest surprised: Dixon Bowen. Awesome energy, great on draws. That fourth line now looks dangerous and has an offensive upside. I see us as a 10 loss team this year. Good, but not 2015-16 great. I'd add that Gersich really seems to have built off a solid freshman season and some good summer workouts. I've been thinking if we might want to put Simo on the new "heavy line" and make the third line a little bit more of a matchup problem in the skill department- I think the style might align Jost with Boeser and Gersich Gardner with Simo and Pogo Hoff with JJ and Wilkie Bowen with Yon and Olsen We'd really be 4 lines deep with this lineup... 3 Quote

yzerman19 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 I was just looking at our calendar...time to unf*&k our sh$7...start playing as a team. Stop making mistakes and being cute. The teams coming up: 1. BSU- Will be thinking David vs Goliath. They will be up for the series big time. 2. UMD- NCAA tourney team, will be up near the top of the NCHC and National standings 3. Gophers- Enough said 4. Denver- (see Duluth) 5. SCSU- down a bit, but tough NCHC team Quote

Also, they've only allowed 2 goals total in those 4 games. Quote

They are clearly playing with confidence. We're 3-0 against Canisius and RPI. You play your schedule. Quote

Then after the switch, they instantly shed the little brother status with a lot of the fan base. Now they are every bit as good or even better. I get random comments all the time while wearing Sioux gear. This series is almost bigger than the Gophers, in terms of me having to hear about it, if it's not a sweep. Quote

Your experience is completely different than mine. I still think of them as the little brother and when I've gone to the Sanford Center for games everyone's super friendly. And yeah they only beat Bowling Green and NMU but they also only allowed 2 goals total in all 4 games. No matter who you play, that's pretty impressive. 1 Quote

The comments I get are just walking around town. I'm so glad the games are both at UND this year. I'd rather drive over than go to the Sanford Center. Quote

cberkas Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 If Bemidji wins any of these game there will be a meltdown on here with a "Fire Berry" thread up right after the game. Quote

Obviously, Bemidji is BSU first, and then many BSU fans cheer for either the Sioux or Gophers (or neither). I think most BSU fans respect that UND continues to play BSU every year - but BSU fans like the David vs Goliath achievement of beating UND. I think many BSU fans have been brainwashed by the UMtc aura. Quote
