Seriously, last year they said they couldn't determine the winner right away since there were so many entries, but then when I got to my car they said they already announced the winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(IIRC) Seriously though I'd be really happy with split. This UMD team has come back to earth but I still have high hopes for them this year. The series in Duluth was some of the most lopsided play I've seen against UND. I've never turned a game off midway through and I almost did because it got so boring to watch as a UND fan. That and the color commentator sounded like a drunk fan. Regardless, Duluth has looked really solid this year. I look forward to a competitive, back and forth, type of series. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yzerman19 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 These teams are pretty equally matched, with UND having a little more elite talent (Boeser and Jost) but UMD being more seasoned. They both play the game the right way. Special teams will play a role. UMD hasn't seen Jost and Boeser split...I don't follow the Dogs enough to know if they have two d-pairings that can shutdown guys who will score 20 goals in the show in a year or two...

Getting outshot attempted 81 to 38 last year on Friday and 146 to 70 on the weekend is quite different than Saturday this year out attempting Duluth 62 to 46. Yes shots don't mean everything, but they give an overview of territorial advantage. Cam wasn't as lights out this year, but it doesn't mean they were great the year before. Remember, people were wanting Cam pulled because of 2 shorthanded goals that he gave up after we had a pretty good first half of the game, outshooting Duluth 24-14 after 2 periods, giving up only 2 shots in the first. They deflated a bit after the 2 short handed goals. Quite the contrast to his stretch of shutout hockey the year before. Regardless, I wasn't in the pull Cam camp.

burd Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I always like this series, win, lose or draw. UMD plays good hockey. They play the skill game well and they can play physical. It's just good hockey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfan512 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Pretty excited for this series, but it is HUGE for UND. This is a chance to bounce back a bit in the pairwise, and start a run for a good seed in the NCAA tourney. After Union and smoking Omaha, I though this team was close to where they needed to be, but I really wanted to see another home sweep against Miami to solidify UND's progress. Not to discount Miami's play, because they were relentless last Friday, but UND should NEVER give up 5 goals in a period. Especially when they are leading, with valuable points on the line. Miami took a page out of our playbook from Omaha, and did whatever they wanted, and nobody prevented it. That game, and that period, certainly don't dictate the story of our season, and the guys bounced back nicely on Saturday to not let it happen again, but they need to continue that this weekend. A home sweep against the ugly dawgs would huge, but more importantly, I want to see the team play 2 full games. They pretty much did everything else that they needed to do last weekend, except they took a period off. Looking for a much better series than we saw in Duluth. Anyone else feel like the NCHC, and NCAA tourney should be starting up, with all this warm weather? Feels more like early March than January. I'll take it, but its kind of a bad tease since it isn't even Feb yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping there aren't any "missed" calls and the game is called right but the chances of that happening are about as good as the Sioux winning the next 10 national titles in a row Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
