I disagree only because it in my humble opinion those games put our defensemen on the hunt for points and let the primary purpose of the position take second place.  Thoughts?

That thought actually crossed my mind after Wolanin had some poor defensive efforts.

No issue with this as Cam is not 100%. UND will now win a close one or will get beat handily is my guess.

...........but I'd be fine with a 5-1 UND win.

They seem to play better on the road and that's a good place for a first start as well.

Gornall with Bowen and Yon...I like it. Not going to scare anyone physically, but fast and creative. 

Boeser with Hoff and Gersich.

Pogo JJ Gardner

Olson Smith with Simo

No Wilkie..........

If UND can't win tonight, ithe team doesn't deserve to be in the NCAA's.  And convincingly, too.  Anything less than an eleventybillion - 2 win tonight is unacceptable.  

FYP.

Tomek, a Euro, on CC's Olympic ice surface tonight. I don't mind that as that's probably what he grew up with. All the angles are different on that wide surface. 

Then again, three freshman (North American) defensemen on Olympic ice ... < cringe >

Totally missed that... Interesting. Also Hoff on top line? 

Yes. Top line........Boeser is a wing IMO and Hoff more creative than Gardner. I like it.

I'll say this.......Peski and Johnson have come a long ways. I like their pairing tonight.

They do what freshman defenseman should do: keep it simple.

So if Tomek gives up 7 in the first period, do we all b*tch about what the heck Berey was doing starting him in the first place?  :cool:

We can b*tch about Berey because Berry won't mind.  :huh:

Agreed, Ox

I'm going big on this one. 7-2. Need an Omaha type game to rebuild some confidence.

Gersich x2, Boeser x2, TPooly, CPooly, WILKIE

I guess I'll flip my last goal pick to.... hmmmm... Wolanin. Just so everyone gets off him for a little bit :)

Wolanin with a hat trick and three assists...and still winds up a -7?  :blink:

Did any of you guys see the CC/UMD series or talk to anyone who did?   A win and a tie and only 4 goals against in UMD's barn tells me they are capable of playing some pretty good hockey.

Liking the top line as well as the 2nd with some big bodies in Rhett in Pogo. CC is one of the lightest teams in the nation in average weight. If the boys can dominate in the corners they'll toy with CC. Also I like Gornall and his speed on that 4th line with the olympic ice sheet.

In the tie, Duluth outshot them like 3 or 4 to one. I caught the last 5 minutes or so and UMD took it to them. Not discrediting them whatsoever because UMD is the best team in the country, but I didn't see a lot to brand them much more than a decent team. We need to handle them.

I know Berry has a penchant for having a Heavy Line that is hard to play against, but 25-22-14 is just plain mean. 

The problem is that 7-9-13 and 26-10-11 are not all that impressive from any POV (scoring or shutdown).
