AJS Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Neither should have been a penalty shot. Overall, a very good weekend, I'll take 1-0-1 on the road any day against a solid opponent. Fortunate bounce on Gerisch goal negates the awful give away by Simonson on Wisconsin's second. UND was the better team this weekend. Biggest take away from the weekend is UND has a solid #2 in net with Thome. He fought the puck a little Friday, which is expected, but personally felt very comfortable with him in net tonight. Nothing against Pups the last couple years, but feel confident much more comfortable with Thome in net. No worries about goaltending this year with either Cam or Thome. I'd like to see a show of hands if anyone thought UND would be in this position defensively this year after watching the unit last year at any point most of the season. The step that Peski and Johnson have made in a year truly is remarkable. They are flat out really good college defenseman. I really think they are nipping at the heals of the 2016 defense unit. The top 4 was probably better that year, but I'd take Bast / Johnson over Thompson and either a freshman Shaw / Wolanin for the 3rd D-pair. This team can roll four lines, again solid tonight, Wisco goalie was on, but the opportunities were there tonight. This will be a fun team to follow the rest of the way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought our defense would be the strength of the team this year, they were shaky for a good portion of last season but I felt down the stretch and into the playoffs last season you could see the growth and potential of the group. Plus, that is where our experience is - defense and in net (prior to Cam's injury). I was thinking the defense and goaltending could hold down the fort while the offense with a bunch of new guys figures things out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackheart Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Sorry if I missed it but what was the point of the shootout after OT? I get that it determines league points for conference games but it seems meaningless for non-conference matchups. The game is listed officially as a tie so help me out.

Peski was horrible early last season but I don't know if I've seen a kid improve more from day 1 to the last minute of a season. Johnson has shown consistent growth. Wolanin has always been great offensively and now he is showing some defensive responsibility too. Poolman is.....well Poolman. Shaw is who he is and Bast is flat out a top tier player. The 2 Fr. are better than advertised too. This blueline group is and will be this team's strength moving forward IMO as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoalieMask Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 On a quintessential night of College Hockey, I really enjoyed the matchup with Wisconsin last evening. The atmosphere was on par with a January or February matchup. This was a great coming of age effort for the team against a strong opponent in their barn. I also enjoyed the FOX Wisconsin coverage. The play by play was really solid and the graphics on screen (shots along with score) was a plus I would like to see on UND’s MidCo coverage. Thome, Adams, and other freshies really impressed. Roll Tribe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
