UND has looked good, but against teams picked to finish low in their league. UND has two solid lines with everyone healthy and will have quite the 3rd line as well. College hockey as a whole lost a lot of players to the pros, however, UND has it better than most on paper. I know it's only October and it's early. I'm just stating what I've seen from all of UND's games this year. Quote

Wisco is okay on offense and terrible on defense. They are average! Quote

Have to take potshots at the Badgers instead. I see how it works. Dave, go back to gopher land where you came from. Wisconsin's defense is god awful, over skating the puck in their end giving up odd man rushes. Unless you saw a totally different game Wisconsin need to fix their defense, and that is also coming from their fan base too. Wisconsin is better this year offensively then they were last year, if they play defense they could finish I the top two in the B1G. 3 1 Quote

I don't know what Wisconsin will end up like this year with their new coaching staff, but to say BC is average at this point is a bit premature, especially since BC is the team that many UND fans hold as the standard of "why can't we be like BC, they are always winning". We will get a chance to see how average they are when we play them. 1 Quote

ClassB Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Not sure where this belongs but: UND defending national hockey title HE doing poorly Gophs bad UND streaking football MVFC doing (relatively) poorly FU fresh off a loss Vikings legitimately good best six months in sports this century ? 3 Quote

Wisconsin's defense is in need of improvement, no question about it. But you're just focusing on that and that alone, you refuse to acknowledge the fact that BC is a great team with incredible talent that could beat literally every team in the nation. I don't even like BC but I give credit where credit is due. BC, by their own fans' admission, are having a down year talent wise. They lost the most players to early signing in all of college hockey. They lost a Mike Richter award winning goalie in Thatcher Demko. They lost Miles Wood, Alex Tuch, Adam Gilmour, Ian McCoshen, and Zach Sanford. That's a ton of talent and point production to replace and it's shown in their early season losses to Air Force and Wisconsin who, despite showing promise, still lacks defense and a solid goaltender. BC has a great program, but the team this year can't be classified as great, not at this point at least. 1 Quote
